the opening video was a really unnecessary limitation of context, but I'm all for Taylor showing sympathy for older kids as well as younger kids

Kanye talking into a vacuum cleaner about how its his privilege to be an asshole was more engaging though

thought it was overkill for them to BOTH play new songs about it, would've been okay if it was just one. i wonder if they heard each other's songs at all in advance.

i don't know if Kanye's was ABOUT IT, but certainly OF it

can you even be "you eated my cookie" while being that patronising? i haven't seen the kanye song but that's not the vibe i'm getting at all

yeah i think since she was one of the big performers at the movie awards in June they didn't want to have her perform on this one, but a "Teenage Dream" perf woulda been good

it was so weird having basically the biggest pop star of the moment relegated to presenting an award for 30 seconds. i don't even remember what nicki minaj said at all, which says A LOT about katy

Earlier in the night, the Best Rock Video award went to the diffuse, dull “Kings and Queens,” by 30 Seconds to Mars. If Mr. West had been planning to jump out of his seat at the announcement of one of this night’s winners, that would have been the one, and yet not a peep was heard from him from Caramanica's NY Times piece
Yes
― curmudgeon, Monday, 13 September 2010 15:10 (thirteen years ago) link
But maybe picking on dull rock at the VMAs is too easy
"Kings And Queens" is a beautiful video, tbh. Its Donnie Darko/Warriors/BatForLashed concept is def hella played out, but the art direction and cinematography are gorgeous.
― Whiney G. Weingarten, Monday, 13 September 2010 15:12 (thirteen years ago) link
i don't know what the video has to do w/ any of those things except i guess Warriors, but yeah, it is a good video (and a good song imo). is Caramanica a butthurt Muse fan?

i wasn't gonna be all pedantic about that line because it's just a lame & obvious joke at the end of the article, but since it's been re-posted & otm'd twice now i'll just point out that a. kanye & jared leto are bros and b. if you think that kanye would ever strike down a self-involved super-pretentious musician who made a hilariously overwrought and pretentious music video, then i'm not sure you really know who kanye west is

It’s okay, life is a tightrope32 and still growing up nowWho you are is not what you didYou’re still an innocentTime turns flames to embersYou’ll have new SeptembersEvery one of us has messed up too...
funny, i heard that as "ambers," not embers, and assumed she was dropping in one more kanye reference just to be cute and clever.
on paper, that song reads awful, like some bad collegiate singer-songwriter crap, but i thought the actual performance was moving.
i also liked how kanye's response, in addition to being, "you think i'm a douchebag? well, yeah, i AM a douchebag, so what?," was also, "you think you know how to sing off-key? well, get a load of this."
