2009 MTV VMA’s

On Sunday September 13th 2009, the greatest award show I ever seen was shown.

A lot of controversy came upon us when Kanye West grabbed the microphone out of Taylor Swift’s hand and said that Beyonce’s video was superior. Poor Taylor Swift, shocked by what has just happened and had the guts to go on and perform ten minutes later. Kanye’s such an idiot, I mean was that really necessary? I think that this act was in favor for Taylor Swift because more people like her now. Although I thought that “Single Ladies” was more impressive, “You Belong With Me” was a pretty good video. Kanye West is going to get it hard but I will still love his music.

Lady Gaga’s performance was AMAZING! She’s one of the top performers of our time. Her “Paparazzi” performance was hit out of the park. When the blood was dripping from her body I was sold. I thought her performance was very creative and gutsy. I just love Lady Gaga even more after this performance.

Other phenomenal performances included, Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”, Green Day’s “East Jesus Nowhere”, Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ “Empire State of Mind” and Pink’s “Sober”.

I think all this madness masked the Michael Jackson tribute. First, we have Madonna making a speech about her relationship with The King of Pop. Then we have dancers dancing to Michael’s biggest hits. Then we had his sister Janet perform. It was a good tribute.

The top winners include Beyonce, Green Day and Lady Gaga, all going home with 3 Moonmen. They are all my favorite artists!
