2005 VMA's

[paidelr]

So I can't believe a topic wasn't started before. The show is almost over.

Eva Longoria = HOTTTTTTTTT

Oh, and the thing with 50 Cent and Fat Joe was VERY interesting.

If you didn't see it, basically this is what happened:

As Fat Joe presented an award or whatever, he said something like, "I feel safe in this building right now. All of these G-UNIT soldiers."

Then when 50 performed, he did "So Seductive" with Tony Yayo. At the end of the song, 50 and Yayo went ballistic. The whole thing was editted out but I could make it "Fat Joe you fuckin pussy! Stupid ------ ---- mother ------ punk!"

[tristy]

It's probably because no one cares enough about the shitty MTV VMAs.

[thuganomic]

Meh. I watched.

MTV's really pushing My Chemical Romance down people's throats. Giving them the surprise performance. Still, I laughed when Fall Out Boy beat them out for MTV2 award.

Kanye was great, nothing else really special IMO.

[Your Mom]

Worked Shoot at the VMAs?

[wCwCreator]

I'm thinking more about what if 50 Cent and The Game won the 'Best Rap Video'. When Fat joe was walking off stage, anyone hear someone shout "Fuck You, Fat Joe!"

[Ananas]

I liked the "American Idiot" album and all, but seriously, MTV needs to stop shoving Green Day's atrocious music videos down our throats. "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams" is an awful video, and probably the weakest song on the album.

[Guest Morecello]

Did you know that Billy Joe's songs that he had orginally writtten got stolen? Boulevard may have never come to pass if someone hadn't stolen the first batch of songs.

Kanye and Jaime Fox's performance was great and damn can Jamie sing.

I would have liked it better if Green Day had played, say, Jesus of Suburbia or Letterbomb.

[Gene Kiniski]

"I feel safe in the building tonight, with all of these cops, courtousy of G-UNIT".

The VMA's were pretty good this year, better than the last few years.

[Psicosis]

Apparently Suge Knight was shot in the leg at a Kanye West party before the VMA's. Some dude in a pink shirt shot him.

Wait... Is this thread saying that MTV is remotely trying to promote music instead of the music lifestyle? Hell, what next? Music videos on MTV? HA!

If you guys think MTV cramming down generic pop crap like My Chemical Romance and Greenday is bad - Kerrang magazine just had them contending for the best band in the world award.

I actually liked the 'anything can happen' mantra of this year's show. It was so completely random, some of the shit that happened (think MC Hammer performance followed by something presented by Eric Roberts). Though, it did get rather sucky after about 90 minutes. It sucked that nearly every band I was looking forward to playing had to play their fucking single I was getting tired of (The Killers so should've played "All These Things That I've Done"; same with Coldplay and their new track).

And, of course, I have a major problem with giving Green Day Video of the Year. But not that it matters. I mean, this is an MTV Video Music Award after all. It cant mean much when Missy Elliott takes a shit and wins at least two of them each year.

[apsham]

I tuned in and saw R. Kelly... I think it was, acting out one of his new songs and I just kind of sat there with my eyebrow raised, and changed the channel. I hate awards shows with a passion, but it's nice to see Fall Out Boy win.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

From the sounds of it, glad I didn't / couldn't watch it.

Nothing of any interest there....

[GoGo Yubari]

The only good that came of it as far as I'm concerned was Gorillaz winning Breakthrough Video. I might try to catch one of the ten thousand re-airings they'll do of it this week for that part only.

[Toe]

I really really really hate that Missy Elliot song that one the awards. How does anyone listen to that song? The beat is just annoying as fuck.
