What else is new?

I find it strange that they did a " tribute" to Aretha Franklin but did nothing for Prince, Bowie, or George Michael if I remember correctly. Just strange to me.

I didn’t watch but heard they had Madonna pay tribute to Aretha Franklin and she spent that whole time talking about herself. The photos I saw of her, she looked awful. Especially the stupid grills she’s still wearing. Hey Madonna grow the F up already.

This tweet seemed to sum it up well.

Dang unfortunately I missed that part. I need to see it.

I know people will say I'm just getting old, which is probably true seeing as I'm 55 now, but I don't bother with these shows anymore. I KNOW my man Prince is not there, so I really don't give a shit anymore. Besides, most of the so-called artists have barely an ounce of real talent, so why waste my time? Sure, there are still some musicians that I'd like to see perform, but these kinds of shows have next to no real talent on them anymore. It's a sad state of affairs. I'm so fortunate to have grown up in the era of real music.

Everything about her appearance was a wtf moment for sure.

I saw a snippet. JLo's face, geesh, she was not happy.

I saw a list of performers and decided i would rather eat broken glass than sit through three hours of that. The only music awards show i still watch is the grammys, and I think I may never tune in again to even that. Modern artists are embarrassing to watch, and as pleasant to listen to as analog static noise on a tv at maximum volume.

NICE!.... I'd do the same... I learned it from Donny Hathaway

Lol god forbid people offend the sensibilities of a serious and accomplished artist like J.Lo, Kylie Jenner or Travi$ Scott. Sure Madonna sounded out of touch but imagine how her tribute is gonna sound when its J.Lo up there talking about lacing up her British Knights and practicing her vogueing before auditioning for In Living Color.

must be why they did it in NYC

I don't know how to tell you this so I'm just going to say it:

MTV - doesn't play Music or Videos
Video - See above
Music - It isn't music. Aerosmith should be kicked out of the RRHOF for playing with whatever a "Post Malone" is
Awards - All awards shows are nothing more than back-patting exercises.

I didn't even know it was on last night I stopped watching these type of award shows years ago

MTV Jams & VH-1 Soul showed music videos, although they are under BET now and are called BET Jams & BET Soul. MTV2 also show videos during certain times and has music related programming like Hip Hop Squares which is the old Hollywood Squares game show with rappers & current R&B singers. MTV Classic show old videos and a few years ago when it was VH-1 Classic it would show new programs Live From Daryl's House & That Metal Show.

But the actual MTV network itself shows no videos, correct?

Sometimes it does in the middle of the night

Where are all the people who were defending that crone so heroically when she effed up Prince's tribute?

I love Madonna, however, that speech was really self-serving and her outfit was horrible. Either do a proper tribute, or don't do one at all!

There were a lot of regrets onstage.

As i was watching the show i was counting all the folks who would be spending a lifetime living down some of this shit. All the idiots with the crappy tattoos on their faces for example. Being young, stupid and on drugs.

I did end up catching some of the show later on....I'm huge Madge fan but that tribute was quite bad. And what kind of look is she going for? I don't understand it.
