MTV’s 2010 Video Music Awards.
One big clusterfuck. This year Chelsea Handler was chosen to host. Let me just start by saying that I LOVE CHELSEA HANDLER. She is rude, crude, foul mouthed, trashy, always drunk, never censors her thoughts or comments, never fails to be brutally honest, hysterical, and has such a beautiful dry sense of humor. Her stand up is outrageous and her show is perfection especially when Ross Matthews is on with her. She’s brilliant and would normally be the perfect choice for such an event but we all must remember that when chosen to host any awards show, there’s already a script mapped out with tons of “funnies” that the host is expected to sell. I think Miss Handler did an outstanding job with what she was given. Would it have been better if she could have just gotten to say what she had to say? Yes. Should she have gotten more air time? Yes. Everything about the VMA’s filming was so painfully awkward this year!
The red carpet. AWFUL. Some of the entrances were amazing, but as a friend of mine pointed out, the vj’s simply sucked. MTV threw in a bunch of no names that no one wants to see interview anyone. There was too much chaos going on with outdoor performances and early awards being given out that so many of the interviews and entrances were ruined. 30 Seconds to Mars had a super gnarly idea for an entrance by playing off their nominated video “Kings and Queens”. Jared Leto has always brilliantly tied every project they’re doing to coincide with whatever event they are attending. He’s an artist and always tries to keep a theme in mind. The grand entrance on the bikes using Echelon as a part of it was brilliant but the interview was so painfully awkward. Let the artist do their thing, then queue your awful vj to poorly execute an “interview”, ok MTV? More red carpet disaster (and I’m not talking about Firecrotch Lohan) was awarding Lady Gaga two random ass awards before the show started. Next time, just recognize the awards not “officially” presented somewhere in the middle of the show before you cut to a commercial and let the audience know who won and leave it at that. It was just awkward and weird and I would have much rather enjoyed a better interview with the lady of the night who had SO many things to talk about rather than giving her a lame award that no one will be talking about.
Performances? Where to start? Taylor Swift, I fell asleep while you were singing your stupid Kanye song. Get laid already and stop playing the sweet and innocent card. It’s not cute anymore and I’m tired of your songs. I wish I still liked you…but you’re dunzo. Emenim you did amazing but why oh why did you ever agree to a duet with an artist who time after time performs horribly live? Rhianna never has been good live and word was that she wasn’t going to make it due to filming her movie in Hawaii and then BAM there she is in a ballet Barbie meets combat Rambo “outfit” looking and sounding awful. Then we have my least favorite thing about the night…Nikki Whateverherlastnameis’s performance. Who is this crazy scary bitch and where did her talentless beluga whale ass wash up from? Bitch you wonder why some black women get a rep for being trashy…you madam epitomized it with 3 seconds of being on stage of your performance with Will. I. Am! It’s great and all that you could safely go jogging at night in that little git up you wore but seriously? Girl with an ass that big and a suit that tiny and tight, I was getting uncomfortable and claustrophobic just WATCHING you dance around making the most disgustingly awkward faces. Not a good look at all and I wish Will. I. Am hadn’t been in such an awkward “black man” outfit. We already have a Lady Gaga kiddos, ergo the days of being all Bjork and creative are over. Leave it Gaga and her FABULOUS meat dress to be creative, different, edgy, and new.
As for the winners, the only one I didn’t agree with was Justin Beiber winning best new artist. I kinda think that the amazingly trashy Ke$ha should have won. Yeah I’ve about had enough of her but I feel like Justin Beiber coulda nabbed it last year. Just a thought.
Highlights of the evening? GAGA. SIMPLY GAGA. Lady Gaga swept the awards this year winning damn near everything. Bravo bitch, you deserved it. Lady Gaga looked disgustingly fierce ALL night! Her tribute opening McQueen dress was out of this world. She also had very appropriate speeches for each award she accepted. It was also nice to see her so humbled and grateful every time she was on the stage. When Cher presented the most coveted award of the night, it was like the stars aligned for those few moments when Cher and Gaga were sharing the stage in all their divaness. I commend Lady Gaga for outspoken she was the entire night about her guests she brought with her and how much she was advocating for the discharged service men and women.
I suppose that’s all I can say about the 2010 VMA’s. Can’t wait for next years!
