Best Nail Art Celebrities Wore to the 2021 MTV VMAs

13 Celebrities That Nailed the MTV VMAs This Year — Literally

There was a lot going on at this year's MTV VMAs. From the nostalgic musical performances (hi to Olivia Rodrigo's butterfly clips and her butterfly clips alone) to Megan Fox's sheer Mugler dress, it was hard to focus in on any one thing. Still, we'd implore you to try — at least when it comes to each celebrity's nails ... because the manicures at the VMAs tonight are good.

Most designs veered bold, like Bella Poarch's black-and-white snake nail art and Chloe Bailey's bedazzled nails, while others took the classic route, like Simone Biles's French manicure and Normani's silver chrome set (courtesy of nail technician Kimmie Kyees using the soon-to-launch Valentino Beauty Pure collection). Some even left you guessing, like Fox's nail art that read "Let's Find You" on the middle three fingers. All of them, however, are worth zooming in on. Don't worry, we did that part for you ahead.
