VMA's

So... this is my first blog so please bear with me. I just couldn't keep my coments to myself about the VMA's this year.

First off... Chelsea Handler was alright. She was funny and cracked jokes throughout the whole show. It's sad that there were times when I looked forward to seeing her on stage versus some of the performers. I was HIGHLY disappointed with the performance that Usher gave. Not only did he not sing the MAJORITY of it, but when he did sing he was out of breath. So I think the time has come for him to choose if he wants to dance or sing. He is getting too old or out of shape to do both. The performance that Nikki did was questionable. I didn't recognize her at first. Then I was like, why she doing this song and not one of the ones that she was nominated for. Drake... really. So his backup "dancers" just chilled in some comfy looking chairs. I would of loved to get a check just to sit in the background in a chair while he sung about me getting my hair and nails done. And finally we come to Lady GaGa. I can't say anything about her performance because she didn't perform. The dress changes were a bit much. I get that she cleaned house with the awards, but seriously. The first dress was hot. The black one... if you need assistance getting out of your seat, then it is definately too much. The third change, I could of did without.

Well, I lied. Of course I have to address the Taylor Swift / Kanye thing. Taylor Swift: please keep shoes or socks on during your performance. I get that it was a song from the heart about innocence being lost. But really. It's an award performance. Not chilling in the studio recording or at home touching up the song. At least invest in some nude no-show socks. **Payless 2 for $5** Now, Kanye... I loved the "*f* em all" toast. Way to just put it out there that you really don't care. However, someone should have been waiting in the wings backstage with a belt. This performance was hyped up and didn't quite live up to the expectation that was set. Then again, he did perform a *f* em all toast!

So other than taking up space on my DVR and wasting the majority of the two hours that I spent watching the 2010 VMA's... overall I would of rather continued watching crazy movies on Lifetime. The show wasn't that bad, but it seems that over the years the VMA's have started to go downhill. Wonder how long it is going to take for this award show to start coming back up the mountian?
