MTV’s 2015 MTV Video Music Awards preshow, which featured performances from Nick Jonas, Walk The Moon, and the premiere of Taylor Swift’s “Wildest Dreams” video, drew a considerably smaller audience than the 2014 version.
The MTV broadcast of this year’s preshow posted a 1.3 adults 18-49 rating with 2.840 million total viewers.
Both numbers trail those of the 2014 edition, which garnered a 1.9 rating and 3.778 million viewers for MTV.
As previously reported, the MTV edition of the actual ceremony also took a huge hit. Its adults 18-49 rating fell 38% from the 2014 mark. A boost from a myriad of simulcast options, however, resulted in a much narrower year-over-year drop.
The 2014 preshow featured performances from Fifth Harmony and Charli XCX.
