Global girl group Katseye has earned its first MTV Video Music Award, taking home the Moon Person trophy for Push Performance of the Year with their hit single “Touch.”
On Sunday, Sept. 7, in a video posted by MTV UK, members Sophia Laforteza and Lara Raj delivered the group’s acceptance speech.
“This is all very new to us, this is our first time ever doing this. We’ve been through a lot together, so having this moment feels so rewarding and feels like everything has paid off,” said Lara.
Katseye’s Filipino member and leader, Sophia thanked their loyal fanbase known as Eyekons.
“Thank you to our Eyekons. We are here because of you, we love you so much. Thank you for believing in us. Maraming maraming salamat,” Sophia stated.
Katseye debuted in 2023 and visited Manila the following year for a fan showcase. The group also appeared on “It’s Showtime.”
In June, the sextet dropped the Latin-flavored R&B-pop track “Gabriela,” accompanied by a telenovela-inspired video featuring Hollywood actress Jessica Alba. Its growing discography includes “Gnarly,” “Debut,” and their award-winning track “Touch.”
