The photo that said it all: Drake Bell and Josh Peck shared a brotherly embrace at the MTV VMAs, putting a definitive end to rumors of a feud between the former Nickelodeon co-stars. Both Drake and Josh shared the photo with the same caption for emphasis. EMPHASIS. (If you know, you know.)

Meanwhile, Heidi Klum and Mel B had a dance party in their car, Ellen DeGeneres bonded with Chance the Rapper and Vanessa Hudgens blew kisses in Instagram posts from throughout the night.

Of course, no number of iPhone cameras can replace true red carpet photography! Paparazzi snapped the best and worst looks of the night, from Katy Perry's cleavage-baring gown to Nicki Minaj's skintight pink bodysuit. All the celebrity looks are in the gallery below:
