THE VMAS

I'm going to be extremely biased. I HATE DISNEY. Don't expect me to write anything about those teeny boppers that seem to possess young 'un's souls. I'm writing as I'm watching so I'm going to keep the enthusiasm to myself. :)

The show started out with Britney! who looked so much better than last year! We don't see the roots anymore :). Rihanna bursts out with an array of freaky dancers, herself wearing a towering dress. She sang "Disturbia" and proceeded to strip into a skimpy outfit and had a small segue to a White Stripes. I do not condone anyone to follow her mullet trend though.

Russell Brand is so true. No one knows him but he is a hilarious UK comedian. Do I agree with him? Maybe, politics are interesting. Though I can't vote quite yet. For me, Britney's win was a pleasant surprise (I thought Katy Perry for sure) because she needs a come back! She needed it. Chris Brown was no surprise because he's such an influence in the youth of America. "Wonderwall" playing in the background.

There was Katy Perry performing "Like a Virgin." Her singing is fine but her performance needs work. I don't want to watch her when she's singing.

Then Michael Phelps helped out, introducing Leona Lewis (one of my favorites) and Lil Wayne (losing his pants) and T-Pain (decked out in a magician suit).

Lindsey Lohan's still alive?! Ciara?! FANNYPAK (LOVE YOU GUYS <3) Dance video? I love Ne-Yo more as a singer, haha. Pussycat Dolls <3 cause I want to work at a strip club too "When I Grow Up."

...no offense, Twilight has even more insane fans. I'd rather not get involved with them either.

Lol, P. Diddy is working Danity Kane even behind the scenes on the VMAs but it's probably just for the laughs.

Paramore was interesting. The vocalist changed her hair again. The outfit does not really work for me... or maybe it's the hair. Her pants match the guitar and bass, XD. Wow, I must be stupid, I didn't even notice the change of set at all. I mean, it did change, right?

Slash and Shia LeBeouf (he's not in jail) with the rock video nominees, very plain. The rock category is pretty competitive but I'm thinking LP. Linkin Park wins! They are like an institution for MTV for years. These guys are pretty amazing, even on the world scene.

Pink was one of my favorites when I was growing up and she still sounds unique and looks amazing. Her dress was very cool, if not on the verge of a costume. I think the amazing thing is that she sounds like she's not fazed by anything and her biker outfit was barely there but still better than Britney's from a few years ago. There were fire hazards and I swear she unbottoned her top even more. I just realized those people dancing on the window sills were supposed to be there.

I LOVE THE TING TINGS. <3<3<3

Haha, I really did not know that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were married but Ashlee was extremely pretty with her long red hair and her baby bump.

Though I did not like the slant towards Sarah Palin cause teenage pregnancy isn't a reason to point someone out. As a mother, she works hard. Mothers.

Slipknot presenting Hip-Hop video. Hah. I was not surprised with Lil Wayne winning. I wasn't really paying attention to the other nominations.

Jordin Sparks is curvy and talented, I loved her style. T.I. was an interesting performer because I haven't heard of him for a while. (I don't listen to music that often) The performance was cool with the female prop and the stage.

GODDAMNIT. I wished I never had to hear this song ever again, even if Rihanna's questionable hair choices was singing it. (Ma-ia-hii Ma-ia-huu Ma-ia-hoo Ma-ia-haha). But the song eventually got better, sort of. :(

The intermission songs were interesting. I figured that many of the people watching the VMAs were really young and wouldn't appreciate some of the older songs that they played.

DUDEEEE, what is with the Disney influx? Hahaha, I actually love Christina Aguilera, so Disney is a pretty subjective topic for me. Her appearance looks a lot younger with the long hair but I love how she reinvented "Genie in a Bottle." She's an example of a great performer. What's with the cape though?

...Tokio Hotel is so... normal. Why did people vote for them? It's like another world. They don't sound interesting at all, so how did they win fan favorite???

My brother switched the channel on Paris Hilton, that's how much he hates her. She has a hellalot of extensions. Britney wins again for Best Pop Video. I was vying for Danity Kane but it's understandable, Britney is too much of a publicized figure.

Locksley, good job on the political parodies!

Geez, they even have Nickelodeon stars!? Kid Rock?! Purely a coincidence but my head hurts now... "Sweet Home Alabama" sounded odd, sorry.

And Britney wins all 3 of her nominations... (dunno, maybe they thought it will be a while until she comes back again.)

And Kanye performs *fabulous as usual*.
