MTV Video Music Awards Best Choreography Der MTV Video Music Award for Best Choreography gehört zu den technischen Kateg

Der MTV Video Music Award for Best Choreography gehört zu den technischen Kategorien. Es ist einer der wenigen Awards, die seit 1984 kontinuierlich vergeben wurden. Von 1984 bis 2006 hieß er Best Choreography in a Video.

Wie bei allen technischen Kategorien wird auch in diesem Fall sowohl der Künstler, der Manager des Künstlers als auch der eigentliche Ausführende, in diesem Fall der Choreograf des Videos ausgezeichnet.

Den Rekord hält Frank Gatson mit sechs Preisen, dicht gefolgt von Michael Rooney mit fünf Siegen, Gatson war auch mit elf Nominierungen in der Nominierungsliste Spitzenreiter. Bei den Künstlern waren Janet Jackson und Beyoncé mit je vier Awards siegreich. Madonna wurde mit zwölf Nominierungen am häufigsten nominiert.

Acht Künstler, die den Award gewannen, waren gleichzeitig auch Choreographen der Videos, nämlich Michael Jackson (für Thriller), Prince (für Rasberry Beret), Paula Abdul (für Straight Up), Madonna (für Ray of Light), Janet Jackson (für Rhythm Nation), Shakira (für Hips Don’t Lie). Bruno Mars (für Treasure) und OK Go (für I Won’t Let You Down).

Christopher Walken gewann den Award für seinen Tanzauftritt in Fatboy Slims Video zu Weapon of Choice und Spike Jonze ebenfalls für einen Tanz in einem Video von Fatboy Slim, in diesem Fall Praise You.
