BOOOOO!

OH another thing:
I still think what Kanye did was gross and disrespectful and utterly UNcool, but:

How do you lose Best Female Video (Gaga/Beyonce) to Swift when your video is nominatedin various categories including BEST VIDEO, but Swift's isn't???

Well, my friend, that was neither "exciting" nor "good". That was classless.

Also, I do believe it could've been staged. I'm pretty sure I don't have to tell you that MTV lives for moments like those. Do I? I mean, according to some of the MTV tools on during the "postgame" show, the Kanye incident was the most tweeted (god I feel so stupid saying that word) thing about the VMAs.

As a certain ex-president would say "Mission Accomplished". Well, he actually wouldn't say it, he'd stand in front of a big ass banner that says it.

Didn't her face/cheeks look particularly full tonight?

I hope you were joking when you said that Beyonce's video is tbe best of this decade... there is nothing innovative about the video.. she basically copied it from another video... I'm not bashing but I dont see the big deal... such an average artist constantly being overrated... the show sucked I didnt watch of course but the tribute was touching. R..I.P. MJ

How big was it of Beyonce to give Taylor Swift her moment? I'm not a Beyonce fan, but after that...she's totally got class!

BlaqueKnight said:

Totally agree! That's how Michael came into my life,through MTV,and the Thriller video.

Flowerpower said:

Ugh, that is NOT an attractive move! I'm not sure what it reminds me of, but it ain't sexy.

As for that jerk, Kanye, he even had to diss Taylor in his 'apology'. What a low-class piece of shit he is.

I don't think it was staged, at least I hope they wouldn't embarrass a young girl like that.

Serena's probably happy though, took some of the heat off of her.

BlaqueKnight said:

If MTV really wanted to show MJJ more respect, they can do so by banning all reality shows from their network and start showing music videos 24/7 like they used to.

But of course, ViaCON would rather maintain the hot mess they have now. So I wouldn't hold my breath.

Flowerpower said:

Jay z is a lucky mother fucker.

benjaminira said:

I know I've been having too much fun in previous threads called her "demon-infested" because of her alter-ego Sasha Fierce, but Beyonce was really an angel for helping Taylor out.

EDIT for spellcheck.

Serena said:

I KNOW!
I think Serena's somewhere going " "

As for Beyonce? How many times is she going to do that song?

BlaqueKnight said:

I agree. Without Michael, MTV would've been canceled already.

voyevoda said:

Yep.....

LondonStyle said:

I've seen this move since 2000. I just realized it!

johnart said:

I need to see this , but it must be very cool to diss Swift because nobody gives a damn about her videos...

Timmy84 said:

Very True.....but everyone should know this already

LondonStyle said:

It ain't cool to diss anybody especially like that onstage. Kanye is mental. I'm convinced of it.

LondonStyle said:

Oh they know... they know... now they're eating crow shit.

Timmy84 said:

Without Michael on MTV.....

1. THIS website wouldn't even exist!

2. Prince's career might have ended BEFORE Purple Rain.

3. Madonna would have remain in NYC's underground dance scene.

4. Motherf***ing Christopher Cross would've been The King Of Pop.

5. Janet would still be a TV actress.

6. Boy-bands like New Edition/New Kids On The Block/Menudo/Boyz II Men/Jodeci/Take That/Backstreet Boys/*NSYNC would have never existed!!!

TonyVanDam said:

Yeah, lol

TonyVanDam said:

Prince would probably still have a career without MTV. He was already crossing over with '1999' and soon Little Red Corvette. Keep in mind too that he was the first black artist on MTV with '1999' as it played in late 1982, and Michael's video Thriller did not play on MTV until around March 1983. Yeah I agreed that Michael did extremely helped MTV to be where they are right now and that is why I am kind of disappointed how the tribute was not so all that for a man who had hhelped them.
