The MTV Video Music Awards were aired on MTV UK last night, and the show was a lil' different from past shows.
First off, there was no formal presenter and excluding the pre-show warm up, the show was only two hours long. I got a lil' excited when I saw Kevin Hart, but I couldn't see him doing the BET Awards and the VMAs. For his lil' cameo's he did his thing.
I actually watch the show this afternoon (Sky+), due to unforeseen circumstances and I thought it was kool! There seemed to be an air of simplicity about the show and less thrills and spills, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Lady Gaga kept up her usual fuckery, this time she decided to dress like a dude...FOR THE ENTIRE SHOW!!! Nicki Minaj won awards which I personally feel she shouldn't have, I kept waiting to see Tinie, but then I remembered it was US MTV so hopefully next year he'll appear. One of the nicest things to see was Adele and Jessie J reppin' the UK to the fullest.
Strange there was no mention of The Twilight movies and none of the actors/actresses presented any awards as they have for the last couple years! (they may have tbh because I fast forwarded a lot of the inbetween bits).
Performance of the night DEFINITELY goes to Chris Breezy who flipped and flew all over the venue! There was no way he would have been able to sing live and do all that, so I disagree with some of the tweets I saw from complaining fans. Even Jay-Z was left nodding in appreciation.
Beyonce and her gut full of Jigga did her thing, I grow to love her album more and more errr-day and it was nice to see the adoration Hov' had for his lady after she finished her performance and rubbed the belly holding the heir to the ROC throne!
Wasn't that excited with the 'Otis' performance, but I see that they were trying to re-create the scene chemistry from the video so I can't hate on that + that is my joint!
I'm gonna wait a few days to post performance vids as all the one's i've seen so far are unstable and i'm not really interested in having to edit this post tomorrow. Peep all the winners below and check back for the performances in a few days...
