yeah, i tried to watch the MTV VMA's last night...

[Qdrop]

couldn't do it....
i made through the first hour...barely....

what a disgusting display of self-indulgance for ego-obsessed celebrities.....

they basically have like 2 awards....but they rename it 40 times so they can give away 40 more awards and have 40 more guest celebrity appearances...


fuck, i could rant forever about this shit....

[TurdBerglar]

i remember i use to watch if for the muscial performances

[beastieangel01]

I caught pieces. It was super-indulgent. I am sure that "Diddy" put up his own money to do all the extra ish.

The set/water/fire stuff was pretty cool looking, I'll admit that. Otherwise, ZZZZZZ

[miss soul fire]

I saw less than 1 minute. Coldplay was playing. And that was itttt!

[roosta]

they have a best rap AND a best hip-hop video.

what. the. fuck?

i saw a funny clip of lil jon getting playing by some girl on stage. he tried putting his arm round her and she shrugged him off. hohoho.

oh and 50 called fat joe "fat". gangsta.

[ToucanSpam]

boring


I read about my school insted.

[miss soul fire]

Oh, I've seen Pharrell trying to look cool too...

[synch]

I saw about 15 seconds of footage and shrugged at puff the magic dragon. My god I didn't know it was possible to be that annoyed at a "performer".

The fact that Greenday won lots of awards made the news here. Heh.

[Lindsey_1535]

R Kelly. Wow. Gay.

[g-mile7]

Jamie Foxx looked like he was on something made me laugh with his "yea nigga!!" yell at the end of Gold Digger, but enough bashin' the VMAz (cuz everyone already knows they mostly suck) Ludacris had a good showing as well as Kanye's performance, he did real good. G-Units was dumb but props to 50 on having Yayo do his thing, good business move. Anyone have the unedited clip of him calling out people? I was even impressed by the so emo My Chemical Romance, even though I stand by the thought that the lead singer sucks live, but that band something else

[cosmo105]

i can't stomach any awards show. it's always just the industry masturbating itself to the point of a 3-hour long orgasm that we all have to sit there and watch without being able to actually be there.

[adam_f]

John Norris looked more uber-gay than usual during the preshow talking to Jamie Foxx.

yep...
the grammy's are just as bad....

virtually all award shows are just excersices in industry/celebrity self masturbation....


the only award shows i actually have respect for are the Oscars, the SAG's, a few other film award entities (sundance, cannes, etc...)

and somewhat to the emmy's....

fuck, anytime an award goes to someone who ISN'T the most popular.

record/boxoffice sales don't equal talent.

[Nuzzolese]

Why do you watch it and talk about it if you think it's so meaningless? Aren't you just perpetuating the celebrity worship?

hahahaha pussy whipped.

[Qdrop]

did anyone notice lyndsey lohan trying to hide her anorexia with that putrid long sleeve, turtle neck, flesh colored dress?

pathetic and tragic.

[Abe Froman]

I ran a long power cord out to the front yard, plugged in my amp then bass and microphone and gave the neighbors my own 3 hour concert to give them something else to enjoy besides the VMAs. I sang such classis as "Puttin On The Ritz" by Taco and pretty much the entire Miami Sound Machine catalog. I earned $2.33 and some buttons when the night was through.

Wow, I teased you once. And you cry.


No comment about the first 'insult', obviously you are a bit behind the times Pops.

Second.....well the second one was just good.

[cosmo105]

isn't "self masturbation" more than a little redundant?

You girl!

[synch]

Heh, yeah, I wanted to say something like that but forgot.

Damn my short attention span.

yes indeedy. All award shows in the history of award shows from the Oscars to the Grammys, have been and always will be about publicity and advertising dollars. They have absolutely nothing to do with recognizing talent.

I'm not sure if the academy awards were the first awards show, but I do know they were created because, with the invention of television and what not, theater audiences were starting to dwindle and so they said: hey, lets create an "awards show" where we can show off our glamours stars and generate more interest in the movies. it had nothing to do with great actors or great movies.

[FunkyHiFi]

Whenever I hear the word "MTV", the word decadence alway pops up in my head.

And you'll be glad to know that to some people, supposedly a lot of you guys are mooks.

To find out what that is, go here:

The Merchants Of Cool

......and watch the part labeled "the MTV machine".

I didn't know Viacom owned so many media outlets: MTV, Comedy Central (part of MTV), Infinity Broadcasting (radio), Paramount Pictures, Spike TV, Nickelodian, Viacom Outdoor (billboards), Simon & Schuster (book publishing), the CBS television network, and more. So if they want to sell something to you............

This is another reason we're very lucky to have PBS around to show us things like this. Unfortunately, lately many people in our government have been trying to chip away at PBS' funding.

[TAL]

I watched the whole show.

you equate a rebuttle with "crying"?

don't flatter yourself, fruitcake.

you cause me as much emotional agitation as a fly landing on my hand.

yeah, i'm sure "she's" beautiful....

[bigblu89]

Other than "Breakthrough Video" where they actually give the award to the best Video, all the rest is just crap.

But Hammer was there, and you can never go wrong with M.C. Hammer.
