Houston, we have moon men and they are going home with our favorite names in music. The 2018 MTV Music Video Awards (VMAs) took place on Monday night in New York City and, as we watched from the comfort of our homes, we felt as though we were right where the action was. And we're here to recap all of the best moments.

From Cardi B taking home the Best New Artist award and reminding the haters she can do anything, including have a baby and win awards:

Big Facts. #CardiB #VMAs

To JLO being the 2018 MTV Video Vanguard awardee, shouting out her family along with her man, Aaron "A-Rod" Rodriguez, and shutting down the stage effortlessly as she always does:

#JLo rly did THAT ✨ #VMAs

Now would it be an award show recap if we didn’t show you how the beautiful women of color shut down the red carpet?! We think not.
