The Real MTV VMA of the Year!!!

While checking out music videos on YouTube, I came across a treasure from Lady Gaga. She has an interesting video for her song, "Paparazzi." I am not much of a fan when it comes to music videos, because very few artists rarely step outside of the box and give us something different. Hell, Beyonce won Video of the Year Award for gyrating her hips, thrusting her pelvis and shaking her ass; much like she does in each of her narcissistic videos. Anyway, back on to Gaga...

Sex, fame, revenge, and murder make for one intriguing and visually stimulating video. Take a look:

On it's face, Gaga's video depicts a stalker, vying for the attention of a star, in hopes of latching onto their fame. However, in my opinion, "Paparazzi" (both the video and the lyrics) takes us through a narrative portrayal of the price of fame by illustrating the intrusive and often damaging nature of the media.

Well, done Ms. Gaga. You're crazy as all hell, but you surely demonstrate what artistic expression is all about.

2009 MTV VMAs- Fave Peformances.

While Beyonce's "Single Ladies" (Video of the Year) routine was a crowd pleaser, it didn't steal the show for me. While I was entertained by Beyonce's performance, it was rather reminiscent of each of her performances... glitter and booty poppin. However there were 3 peformances that really embodied entertainment...

1.) Michael Jackson Tribute: feat. Janet Jackson

MTV Shows

This was my #1 pick. The entirety of the tribute was great... but Janet reigned supreme as she gave the performance of a lifetime singing "Scream" (duet w/Michael). Watching Janet in action felt like an old school throw back to 1989's "Rhythm Nation." Loved it! This woman is a true entertainer.

2.) Pink - "Sober"

P!nk - New Music - More Music Videos

I've always loved Pink because she never conforms to a mold. This was the mark of a true performer. Pink morphed into an acrobat for this trapeze act. She has always had an atheletic build, but who would've thought she could sing and flip around while suspended in the air. This girl is phenomenal.

3.) Last but definitely not least... Lady Gaga - "Paparazzi"

Lady Gaga - New Music - More Music Videos

What can I say about Lady Gaga? I'm still trying to figure out this performance, but it was hot. Loved the whole "Carey" like bloody ending. I really don't expect anything less... this is one sick chick and it's grrreattt.

Now while all of these new comers are great... I think we should pay homage to a true queen of performance... The following video is from the 1990 MTV Awards. In my opinion it is hands down the best musical performance during an awards show... esp MTV... Madonna ~ "Vogue"

Kanye West proves to be an IGNORANT PRICK.

Kanye West Storms The VMA Stage

Kanye West needs his ass WHOOPED!!! I've never seen anyone so rude, arrogant and absurdly pompous as this ugly ass critter. In the middle of Taylor Swift's acceptance speech for Best Female Video, this flamboyant prick (Kanye) managed to completely belittle her win. UNBELIEVABLE!!! WHAT NERVE!!!!

Now you see... Taylor is much better than me. She stood there awestruck like a damn deer caught in headlights. My first thought would have been to take that award and beat Mr. West into a bloody pulp. However, the more tamed, classier side of me would have made a rather wise comment such as... "Thank you Kanye for your MARVELOUSSS interpretation of a walking, talking dick... everyone give him a HAND."

This man really needs to be force fed a slice of humble pie. You would think after life changing events... i.e. laying on your death bed with your jaw wired shut or perhaps the sudden death of your mother, you would try to be a better person.

Kanye posted an apology on his official blog saying, "I feel like Ben Stiller in "Meet the Parents" when he messed up everything and Robert De Niro asked him to leave... That was Taylor's moment and I had no right in any way to take it from her. I am truly sorry." PLEASE!!! He isn't sorry for what he did. However, he was right in saying "I am truly sorry"... because he is one sorry ass excuse for a man.

Remember Kanye... you've only made it this far because of the little people. Ride this wave as long as you can because when it crashes... your ass is finished.
