The most nominated art directors are Tom Foden and Laura Fox with four nominations each. Closely following them are K.K. Barret, Bryan Jones, and Nigel Phelps with three nominations each.

The performer whose videos have won the most awards is Red Hot Chili Peppers. However, Madonna's videos have received the most nominations with six.
