Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter win early at MTV Video Music Awards

Few artists are having a bigger year than Sabrina Carpenter, who won the MTV Video Music Award for song of the year for "Espresso."

"This is really special," she said in her speech, dedicated to her fans. "And thank you to that me-espresso."

Earlier in the night, she brought her summery-pop to the award show, powering through her hit singles "Please Please Please," "Taste" and "Espresso" while dancing with a moon man and an alien.
