Der MTV Video Music Award for Best Female Video gehörte zu den langlebigsten Kategorien der Verleihung. Er wurde mit der Erstverleihung 1984 eingeführt. 2007 wurde er im Zuge der Umstrukturierung der Awards für das eine Jahr in Female Artist of the Year umbenannt, firmierte aber schon 2008 wieder unter seinem alten Namen. 2017 wurde die Kategorie durch Artist of the Year ersetzt, die sich aus der Best Female- und der Best Male Video-Kategorie zusammensetzt.
Mit je drei Gewinnen führen Madonna, Taylor Swift und Beyoncé die Bestenliste an. Madonna wurde mit 12 mal am häufigsten nominiert.
