VMA Review
Well yesterday were the the MTV Video Music Awards which featured a bunch of rich and famous celebrities partying and having more fun then you ever will. The big news was Britney Spears comeback at the beginning of the show. Of course in traditional crazy Britney fashion she totally bombed. First off she lip synced to her new song which apparently she didn’t even know the words too, performed a horrible routine that looked like she was going to topple over several times and also featured sexy paunch.
A lot of people are saying its unfair to criticize her for her appearance because she has had to kids, but considering 99.9% of Britney’s success was do to her looks and not musical talent I think it’s a fair criticism. Also nobody told her to have two kids with a wanna be rapper back up dancer.
This year the awards were held in Las Vegas at the Palms casino. In order to promote the party atmosphere the award show featured four separate parties that were televised during the show. They were Kanye West, Justin Timberlake, Fall Out Boy and the Foo Fighters. Each of them performed in a suite for their “fans”. The only really interesting performance was by the Foo Fighters who performed sounds with Cee-Lo, Josh Homme, Serj Tankanian and Mastodon.
Other than that the performances were totally forgettable. Some guy named Chris Brown danced like Michael Jackson, which we haven’t seen before , except for Justin Timberlake, Usher, Omarion, etc. etc.
The best moment of the night came when Kid Rock and Tommy Lee got into a fist fight and Tommy Lee was kicked out. Maybe they were arguing about who gave who Hepatitis C?
The VMA’s show the terrible state of “popular” music do to the fact that every performance had to have a million lasers in order to be remotely interesting. MTV doesn’t even show vidoes anymore so the notion of a video music award is ridiculous. Next year they should just have the pompous jackass awards which would be more fitting.

I feel bad about everyone being mean to Brittany for being a “normal” sized girl now. What I also feel bad about is that I watched her embarrassment in front of everyone while she forgot the lyrics to her own song and didn’t know where she was supposed to be going choreography wise. Maybe if you are out of practice you should actually go to rehearsal or something, I dunno, like learning the words to your own freakin song?
