Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Weird nightmare realms was an unexpected (but absolutely fitting) trend of last year, so it's no surprise the MTV Movie Awards capitalised on a convenient mash-up.

Get Out's Sunken Place and Stranger Things' the Upside Down came together for a short parody featuring the show's host, Workaholics' Adam Devine.

Accidentally sent there by Allison Williams and her teacup, Devine found himself coming face-to-face with Jillian Bell's Barb and a particularly unwanted take on the Demigorgon, alongside Trey Songz's Lucas.

If Bell's Barb wasn't already fairly perfect casting, she was then followed by the queen-of-creep herself, Aubrey Plaza, turning up as Eleven and introducing a place where Taco Bell is called Quesadilla Ding-Dong, Tracy Morgan is the Pope, and Hillary Duff is the president.

The real Stranger Things picked up two awards on the night, winning Best Show, with Millie Bobby Brown winning Best Actor in a Show. You can read the full list of winners here.
