Did anyone catch the VMA's last night? Quick warning: I am a HUGE music fan whose interests span across all genres. Depending on my mood, I may either choose to praise or dismiss Mariah Carey. If you can sympathize with that, you'll probably enjoy my blog.
I loved a lot of things: the water scenes, the remote performances (especially The Killers), the arrivals by car, the donations by Diddy to charity (can't argue with a man who puts his money where his mouth is).
I wasn't too crazy about: Green Day winning pretty much everything (sorry, I'm one of those fans who will ALWAYS prefer Dookie to American Idiot), flagrant lip synching (at least practice or pick an easy song), and the fact that Kelly Clarkson was invited (bring it on, pre-teens...I hear her every single morning on the radio when I wake up. Does anyone second me on the overplayed aspect?)
Mariah watch: How un-diva like of you to end your song in the pool! Not that you have shied away from water in the past...
Oddest moment: R. Kelly's performance of "Trapped in the Closet." The song is great and the movie was an awesome idea, but I don't think a live performance was necessary.
Most satisfying moment: The Killers winning "Best New Artist." They deserved it, they got it. That's how it should work every time. But I'm not a voter...yet.
