MTV Best Female Video
From Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" in 1984 to "You Belong To Me" by Taylor Swift in 2009, MTV has awarded their VMA for Best Female Video.
Madonna has won MTV's Best Female Video three times ("Papa Don't Preach" in 1987, "Take A Bow" in 1995, and "Ray Of Light" in 1998.
