MTV VMAs 2020: Miley Cyrus stuns in see-through dress

The MTV VMAs look very different in 2020, with performances taking place across New York City as the coronavirus pandemic continues to change live events as we know them.

Keeping in line with social distancing restrictions, the red carpet was much smaller than ever before, but Miley Cyrus appeared on the reduced carpet in a very daring dress.
