The hottest couples hit the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet before the coveted Moonperson trophies were handed out on Sunday, September 7. While Us Weekly previously confirmed that newly-engaged couple Taylor Swift - who is nominated for Artist of the Year - and Travis Kelce would not attend this year's awards show, there were several other A-list pairings that made fans do a double take. Evan Ross and wife Ashlee Simpson hit the red carpet on Sunday, posing for photos outside New York's UBS Arena before the night's festivities got underway.
