The 2014 MTV Video Music Awards have come and gone, providing plenty of memorable moments from the red carpet to the big stage at the Forum in Inglewood.

From Taylor Swift’s red carpet prediction of her own terrible dancing (she delivered) to Blue Ivy and Beyonce showing us all how it’s done, this night had it all.

Amber Rose’s VMA dress turned heads (as did Demi Lovato’s), Ariana and Big Sean were caught holding hands and Common paid tribute to Michael Brown.

As expected, we saw Nicki Minaj Twerking until the cows came home (and Usher sampling the goods), the Kardashians looked bored to tears, and Lorde?

Lorde was Lorde. Awkward, talented Lorde.
