The MTV VMAs 2025 were filled with show-stopping performances, but one of the most talked-about moments happened away from the stage. Backstage, YUNGBLUD and Jesse Jo Stark were seen sharing a passionate kiss, sending fans into a frenzy and fueling speculation that the two have rekindled their relationship after months apart.
The pair had already drawn attention on the red carpet with their playful but slightly tense reunion, but it was their private moment behind the scenes that set social media ablaze. Clips of the kiss quickly spread across TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), with fans celebrating what many see as confirmation that the couple is back together.
“Finally, the reunion we’ve all been waiting for,” one fan wrote. Another commented, “They are truly the power couple of the VMAs this year.”
Earlier that evening, Jesse Jo Stark had openly praised YUNGBLUD on the carpet, calling him her “Sexiest Man Alive” pick — not just for his looks, but for his heart and the energy he brings to those around him. Her words, combined with the kiss, seem to confirm that their love story has entered a new chapter, making their reunion one of the most buzzed-about moments of this year’s awards.
