Tessa said:

this is so sad.

remember 89-99 when the MTV awards used to be hot?

when the performers were the big superstars (eh hem..mariah? the killers? KELLY CLARKSON? GREEN DAY?) who would strut their new shit that would be surprising and interesting? ie:

Prince's "Gett Off"
every Madonna performance (except the Britney Kiss)
Alanis' "You Oughta Know"
TLC's "CrazySexyCool" medley
Lil Kim/Left Eye/Brat/Missy "Not Tonight"
Michael Jackson's HIStory medley
Janet's "If/Thats the Way Love Goes"

Hell, even Paula Abdul...

now...it's all this corporatized, payola, boring "hip" bullshit mixed with washed up wannabes (Ms. Carey) and unfunny superstar hosts (P. Diddy)...this is SOME BULLSHIT!

MTV has started to OFFICIALLY SUCK! "Cribs," "Newleyweds," and "Room Raiders" were apparently just the beginning...

I know! MTV has sucked for a long time.

The MTV Awards Suck. Every year they hype up this show..& it always is bad. I do not recall any recent shows that were actually worth watching. P Diddy or how i like to call him Puff The Magic Dragon hosting is a bigger joke. He is soooo damn annoying.

CinisterCee said:

If I'm correct, they have a link with Eric Roberts. maybe they'll do a duet/medley of "It's Like That" and "Mr. Brightside" where Mariah will be in a wedding dress and ditch Eric Roberts for the lead singer of the Killers.

no, i started to admit it to myself about '03...but i haven't declared it publicly until recently. it was such a part of my childhood...lol...it's like an old friend who I realize that I've come to hate.

furrheal.

I would like to see DC on the VMAs. I dont think theyve ever performed on them.

VoicesCarry said:

yep

I would say her dress, but can you really shake off black spray paint. You'd really have to scrub it off...

SassyBritches said:

I don't even like her as a person but the media gave her a bad deal (they are treating J. Lo the same way...and it was only a few years ago when J. Lo was great...Britney Spears as well...). I was rooting for the CD but enough is enough with the boring ass R&B.

VoicesCarry said:

I'm barely on there and I think I remeber that. I also agree that the conversations about the VMAs with friends on and off cyber space are a hellvu a lot more entertaining than the actual awards! This year, though, I won't be home to see them...I'll just miss them. Even if I could go somewhere to teach them, the next day I start student teaching...didn't they used to always be on Thursdays?

badujunkie said:

1989 had acts ranging from Paula Abdual (I also vaugely remember Redhead Julie Brown having these skits where she was hunting down Paula) to...The Cure! Now that is an awards show. Nothing against Kelly and Green Day...but come on! I also more than question a celebrity suckup like P. Diddy hosting...Chris Rock every year or nobody!

Mom is re-living her life THROUGH Beyonce!

badujunkie said:

...and some of you much mature adults will still watch this bullshit award show (even for laughs)???

I'll past!

p-diddy hosting?

missfee said:

Seriously, she looked like she hired a gay mortician as her stylist.

Christopher said:

The poster says, simply, "Hosted By Diddy".

The shit gets worse every year. You know the fucking thing is gonna blow chunks.

Ever since Viacom bought the MTV networks, it has gone to shit. MTV is now the home of self serving, arrogant high school and college pukes, who care more about swilling beer and sniffing panties then being smart or have good taste in music, besides the swill MTV calls music.

thats funny, I was just thinking that when I saw the commercial for the new season of "My Super Sweet 16" show when they get these unknown rich girls or more like rich brats on the show to do their sweet 16 party. They beg their parents for expensive cars and the parents try to "act" like they are disciplining them when they get out hand by threatening to not but the famous Land Rover jeep or a BMW convertible that they just are dying to have. Its pathetic really.

ummm...did someone up there say that Paula's "thigh-ology" was a good or okay peformance?

if you ask me she is the one to blame for starting all this crap..it was her damn attempt to upstage janet's "nasty" and control" peformances...such a shame janet doesnt remember all she needs is a good outfit and four dancer (and maybe a band) to put on a good peformance....
