From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.The MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) boasts a red carpet quite unlike any other A-list ceremony.
There’s something about the annual music industry celebration – which this year saw Taylor Swift and Lil Nas X among the big winners – that attracts era-defining fashion moments.
It’s the event where actor Rose McGowan famously donned a black sequin “naked” dress and where Lady Gaga wore her seminal meat gown, which was made from actual raw meats.
While there were no such avant garde contributions this time around, guests including Lizzo, FKA Twigs and Jonathan Van Ness ensured there was plenty of sartorial prowess to admire, with copious sequins and sparkles between them.
Elsewhere, we saw Swift make a colourful splash in a rainbow Versace blazer and Halsey putting a girlish spin on glam rock style in a sheer scarlet gown by Dundas.
