The MTV music awards held at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey and hosted by Sebastian Maniscalco had as much excitement as it had controversy. From the outfits to the speeches, everyone had something interesting to say. Performances by The Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus (singing her “breakup song”) and Taylor Swift who also won Video Of The Year - all took the stage and made a statement. When it came to the fashion it was over the top as ever with a few favorites catching our eye. Keep reading to see the looks we loved the most, straight from the Red Carpet.

Gigi and Bella Hadid both stunned on the carpet, and together they were on fire. Both wearing nude colored outfits - Gigi with a corset and pant ensemble and Bella with a showstopping “two-piece” dress. We love the way these shades showed off both girls’ style - especially Bella’s new caramel hair color. Juxtaposing each other, Gigi wore her hair down with slightly beachy waves and a voluminous side part, while Bella went for the high “cheerleader” pony with a swift sweep of perfectly placed tendrils to frame her face.

GET THE LOOK:
1. Start off by prepping the hair with Biolage Airdry Glotion, which helps boost shine, protects hair from heat and repels against frizz
2. Section out the fringe area and clip it aside.
3. Then, pull all of the hair back and spray with Biolage Complete Control Fast Drying Hairspray while gathering all of the hair for the ponytail and secure the hair with a small black elastic.
4. Next, take a small section of hair and wrap it around the ponytail to cover the elastic.
5. Using a two inch iron, bend the end of the ponytail inward. Place the fringe to the desired placement, and use the Biolage Freeze Fix Humidity Resistant Hairspray to keep the hair in place and rub a little bit of Biolage Gelee Styler to keep the hair held behind the ears.

Actress and Singer/Wrapper Keke Palmer set off sparks as she graced the Red Carpet in her dazzling yellow dress and jeweled “cell phone” clutch. Setting off the alarm as one of the best dressed in a Yousef Aljasmi gown. The high neck and long sleeves went perfectly with her high bun offering unwavering drama (the good kind) for the night ahead.

6. Finish with Matrix Total Results High Amplify Flexible Hold Hairspray to hold the hair in place all night and eliminate fly aways.
Halsey
Totally reviving the rainbow hair trend, Halsey has created yet another stand out style. Although she came under much scrutiny for reportedly “ignoring Shawn Mendes’” performance - in reality she was just texting her mom to make sure she was doing ok in the audience - Halsey is turning heads as the real queen that she is. Complimenting her sheer orange gown, the singer wore a strip of literal rainbow hair at her roots. Created by hairstylist @Florido, apparently the look was Halsey's idea (you go girl). She’s proven before how much of a color chameleon she is, but this style is making a statement and trends are about to unfold around it. Next time you head to the salon for a root touch up, why not pull a Halsey?!
