Jennifer couldn’t contain herself Monday night at the MTV Video Music Awards at radio City Music Hall in New York City.

The pop icon shimmered in a high-slit silver gown while accompanied by her boyfriend former Yankees 3rd baseman Alex Rodriguez.

“It's an insane night for me, it's a really special thing – winning this award. [I’m] honored, it's just crazy for me. I don't have words,” she told Terrence J on the red carpet. “This is my town, I feel so at home here.”

The New York native's comments came just before she was presented with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award – she also took home the award for 'Best Collab' for her flashy new “Dinero” video with Cardi B and DJ Khaled.

The show-stopper has enjoyed an illustrious career which also included a Las Vegas residency which has seen more than $60 million in ticket sales.
