Top nail looks at MTV Video Music Perhaps the most striking nail design at the recent MTV Video Music Awards was seen on British singer/ songwriter, Rita Ora. Her plain black nails had a 2D gold snake on every finger, each with a different swirly design and red gems depicting the eyes. The design was by celebrity nail stylist, Naomi Yasuda. The evening’s host, American rapper Doja Cat, rocked five different nail sets, each to match a specific outfit, but perhaps the most edgy was an alternative French manicure with gold nail beds and very long, pastel blue stiletto tips. The middle fingers also featured an unusual and large rectangular marbled gem, in the same blue shade. All of Cat’s various nail looks were designed by Saccia Livingstone. Singer and one of the night’s presenters, Ciara, had plain black shiny nails to perfectly compliment a beautiful lace dress in the same hue. Eri Ishizu did the nails.

The classic French manicure of DJ and socialite, Paris Hilton, did nothing to detract from her dazzlingly sparkly silver dress. Opting for plain white nails, to match her elegant asymmetrical white dress, was Olympic gold medalist-winning gymnast, Simone Biles, while rapper Saweetie rocked white and gold nails. Fellow rapper Normani sported long, almond-shaped silver chrome nails that complemented her white, itsy-bitsy outfit. Lil Nas X, who scooped the MTV Video of the Year award for his controversial video, ‘Montero’, had several different outfits for the night. With one of those outfits – a lilac Atelier Versace pantsuit – he sported white nails that were highlighted here and there with diamantes. Rapper, songwriter and model, Bia, wore embellished red nails that perfectly complimented her intricate red gown.
