When it comes to what Lady Gaga will wear to events, we've come to expect the unexpected. That, and number of outfit changes. Case in point: At the 2020 Video Music Awards, the singer wore nine different ensembles that proved her status as true fashion icon. The singer was up for a whopping nine trophies: seven for "Rain on Me," her collaboration with Ariana Grande; Artist of the Year; and Best Quarantine Performance for "Smile" from One World: Together at Home. For every acceptance speech and for her three-song performance (one of which was with Grande), she wore completely different looks (how does she do it, really?). Still, all of her outfits stuck to a futuristic theme and featured eye-catching face coverings, encouraging audiences to practice safety at all times. "Celebrate yourself, be kind, mask up," she said while performing her medley.
