Taylor Swift swept the board with seven wins at the MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday night.

The pop sensation took home Artist of the Year and Best Pop among her swag of prizes, which also included Video of the Year for Fortnight alongside Post Malone.

While accepting the award for Fortnight, Taylor declared that "directing this video and putting it together and writing it was the most wonderful experience".

She also thrilled fans by giving a shout-out to her boyfriend Travis Kelce.

"I would always just hear someone cheering, like, 'Whoo!' from across the studio - that one person was my boyfriend, Travis," the superstar recalled. "Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic, so I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot."

To conclude, Taylor urged followers to vote in the upcoming U.S. presidential election.

"If you're over 18, please register to vote for something else very important that's coming up," she smiled.

Going into the night, Taylor led the nominees with 12 nods, with Post right behind her with 11.

With her wins, Taylor overtakes Beyoncé as the artist with the most VMAs, which are voted by the public.

Despite three nominations this year, the Formation hitmaker did not attend. She hasn't been seen at the show since 2016.

Elsewhere, Sabrina Carpenter won Song of the Year for her smash hit Espresso and in-demand newcomer Chappell Roan won Best New Artist.

Eminem opened the New York show, while fellow rapper Megan Thee Stallion served as host.
