Video Music Awards...
Just turned on the VMA's but taking a break now cause Taylor Swift is on.
Anywho, I heart Florence the Machine even more now that I noticed the girl doesn't wear any shoes! Love it and the Stevieish outfit! Oh snap, just looked at the tv, is Taylor shoeless to? Geeez. Any thoughts on the VMA's from anyone?

I haven't watched the awards yet, but my friend is dancing for Florence and the Machine on the VMAs. Apparently she was "the one painted, in green, and with black hair" to quote my friend who says she's seen it....

Maybe she goes shoeless so she won't look like an Amazon.

The girl does appear to need a sandwich.

Florence + the Machine recreated the Dog Days music video. She's mentioned a Stevie-influence during one interview and she covered "The Chain," which she described as her all-time favorite song, at this year's Glastonbury festival.
It was strange to actually hear someone sing live from start to finish. Usher, Justin Bieber, Ciara, etc. had their performances seriously augmented with playback. Taylor Swift sang live, unfortunately, confirming what most of us already know: she's a singer who can't sing and a songwriter with a vocabulary of five words and two melodies. Kanye West's performance was fascinating because it was so outrageously awful - from the opening where he ripped off Moby to his terrible vocals and frat boy lyrics about "douche bags." Gaga's acapella moment - where she belted out a piece of song she's just recorded - settles that argument. Love her or hate her, she can sing. Her songs, personality, outfits, etc. are a matter of personal taste, but the voice can't be denied. And she had the best line of the night when she accepted her 7th award of the evening: "I never thought I'd be asking Cher to hold my meat purse." |

I didn’t watch all of the Lady Gag awards, I mean MTV Awards, but I did see most of it. Just a few random thoughts …
Taylor Swift – ok, we know she isn’t the best singer (many said this about Stevie in her early days too ya know) but I genuinely liked it. She’s a storyteller and her performances are more about the overall heartfelt delivery. I’m not a big country music fan, but I appreciate Taylor and thought her performance was good. Florence – don’t know much about her but as she was singing, I just knew I had seen her somewhere before. She has a duet with Dizze Rascal on a cover song titled “You Got the Love.” I like her performance and also though it was a bit Stevie-ish. Justin Bieber – Chelsea was funny when she said, “Imagine the kinds of songs he’ll sing once he sees a v-----“. LOL, that was hilarious. And I admit, I was laughing a bit when he started to perform however, you can’t deny the fact that he’s got talent. I know he lip synched but I don’t have a problem with it if the routine is so vigorous that it is nearly impossible to sing live. He actually can sing, this just happened to be a performance that was heavily choreographed. LG – I read somewhere she mentioned the new title of her CD, “Born This Way.” Great, just what the gays community needs, more pandering. Somehow I know they will just eat this up. |

Florence - was not anything stevie-like. Aside from that matter for debate, she was awful. Bieber - I thought Chelsea's joke was grotesquely naive. As if Bieber's never seen a v-----. It's none of my business nor my interest, but stupid Chelsea Come-Lately brought it up and treats her audience as fools. Anyway, I have seen no evidence of Bieber having any talent of note. More old news: Chelsea recycled the joke about him looking like a 28-year-0ld v----- (i mean: lesbieber). That joke isn't funny anymore because the issue is that the kid is popular because he's fug. This is a cultural calamity. I covet his hair though. LG - I agree with everything you said here.

I used to like the VMAs back when there were more music videos and MTV actually showed in an interest in music. Now it just seems like one big celebration for the same ten people that are constantly brought up in every other form of communication. It's not even anything against the individual people, it's just a matter of oversaturation. Great, Lady Gaga won the most videos in history. Not too hard to do when there's only a handful to consider and awesome, she wore a meat dress to the ceremony, now how many places do I need to read about it live blogged or otherwise?

The Monster Ball (her current tour) is totally based around liberating oneself from social oppression. She talks about gay rights many times, about general nonconformity.... she says early on in the show that she wants people who feel like "freaks" in their day-to-day lives to feel comfortable around her and her music. I repeat: I. Love. Gaga. |
