Taylor Swift and the MTV VMAs have a long history, one that goes back to 2009 when Swift was a breakthrough country artist. Since then, she has been a VMAs mainstay \u2014 and is now the most awarded solo artist<\/a> in the awards show\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

As the MTV Video Music Awards approaches \u2014 it airs live Sunday night at 8 p.m. ET \u2014 Swifties will be watching to see if their favorite pop star makes an appearance. <\/p>\n

After all, Swift has a lot to celebrate at the moment. Not only is she nominated for the VMAs\u2019 coveted artist of the year trophy, but she also has a new album, \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl,\u201d coming in October, and is newly engaged to Travis Kelce<\/a>. <\/p>\n

With all eyes on the singer, what are the chances Swift will attend the VMAs? Here\u2019s what to know. (TODAY.com has reached out to Swift\u2019s reps for comment.)<\/p>\n

Swift is nominated<\/a> this year in one of the VMAs\u2019 top categories: artist of the year. She’s in good company with her fellow nominees, including Beyonc\u00e9, Lady Gaga, The Weeknd, Bad Bunny, Kendrick Lamar and Morgan Wallen.<\/p>\n

In 2024, Swift took home her 30th moon person<\/a> at the MTV Video Music Awards and solidified her status as the most awarded solo artist in VMAs history. Artist of the year is her only nomination for 2025, and, if she wins, she will have the most career VMA wins of all time. (She and Beyonc\u00e8 are currently tied<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

While appearing on the Kelce brothers\u2019 \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast<\/a> in August, Swift announced that she\u2019s releasing her 12th album<\/a>, \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl,\u201d on Oct. 3.<\/p>\n

With just a few weeks to go before the album\u2019s debut, it would make sense that Swift might appear at the VMAs to continue to build the hype.<\/p>\n

Is Taylor Swift Attending the 2025 MTV VMAs?<\/p>\n
