Kanye West [1] took home a special honor at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, where the rapper hit the stage for one very long acceptance speech and one very big announcement: a presidential run. Taylor Swift presented Kanye with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award [2] while his wife, Kim Kardashian [3], and the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner crew supported him in the audience. The rapper launched into a long acceptance speech, and as it came to a close, he said, "I have decided, in 2020, to run for president."

In any case, with this award, Kanye's in good company, as recipients over the past few years have included Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake [4], and Britney Spears [5]. While Queen Bey memorably slayed a 16-minute medley of her songs [6] last year, when JT won, he took the opportunity to reunite with *NSYNC [7] for the first time in 10 years.
