Depois de abandonar a distinção de gênero na hora de premiar os melhores atores e atrizes durante o Movie & TV Awards, em maio deste ano, a MTV anunciou nesta terça-feira (25) uma novidade semelhante para o Video Music Awards, o VMA.
As categorias Melhor Clipe Masculino e Melhor Clipe Feminino, por exemplo, agora se juntaram em uma só, Clipe do Ano. Não é maravilhoso?
Além disso, 2017 também tem outra novidade na premiação, a categoria de Melhor Luta Contra o Sistema (que já existia no Movie & TV Awards). A ideia é celebrar vídeos que inspiram os espectadores a se levantar e lutar contra as injustiças.

Na edição deste ano, os principais indicados do VMA são Kendrick Lamar, em oito categorias diferentes, Katy Perry e The Weeknd, ambos em cinco categorias diferentes.
A premiação acontece na cidade de Inglewood, na Califórnia, e vai rolar no dia 27 de agosto, às 20:00, horário local. Isso quer dizer que, aqui, poderemos assistir ao evento a partir da meia noite do mesmo dia.
