Maybe JOHN TRAVOLTA should just stop doing award shows.  Although frankly I hope he doesn’t . . . because he’s an UNINTENTIONAL COMEDY MACHINE.

Last night’s “MTV Video Music Awards” were held in New Jersey . . . Travolta’s home state.  So they brought him out to present Video of the Year with another New Jersey native, QUEEN LATIFAH.

So Latifah announced the winner, which was “You Need to Calm Down” by TAYLOR SWIFT.  And Taylor brought her LGBT squad from the video up onstage with her.

And it looks like Travolta accidentally tried to hand the trophy to a DRAG QUEEN by the name of Jade Jolie.  (!!!)

TOO BE FAIR… Jade does a pretty good Taylor and actually played her in the video for “You Need To Calm Down”… so people are having fun with it.

 

Here were some of the other big winners:

Ariana Grande was Artist of the Year . . . Billie Eilish won Best New Artist . . . “Sucker” by the Jonas Brothers won Best Pop . . . and “Money” by Cardi B won Best Hip Hop.

“Old Town Road” won Song of the Year, giving Lil Nas X his FIRST AWARD EVER.

And MISSY ELLIOTT received the Video Vanguard Award . . . and proved that she deserved it by putting on the best performance of the night.

Speaking of performances, MILEY CYRUS crushed it with her new breakup anthem Slide Away.

Real life couple SHAWN MENDES and CAMILA CABELLO did “Senorita” . . . and ended it by rubbing noses instead of kissing.

LIZZO represented the big girls with “Truth Hurts” and “Good as Hell”.
