my own personal vma acceptance speech

"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.

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 was surprised how humble and polite Jared Leto was after seeing his on-stage shtick in their Closer To Edge video

Closer To The Edge, I mean.

It's the poll that had to be made:

Best/Favorite Performance on the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards POLL

http://i53.tinypic.com/6ehsfa.jpg

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

oh god, NO, if that would mean we'd have to hear jared leto sing a touching song about it next year.

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

I'm not sure any of us know who Kanye West really is

he's a misogynist riddle tweeted by a megalomaniac enigma and smothered in charming autotune

It’s okay, life is a tightrope
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You’re still an innocent
Time turns flames to embers
You’ll have new Septembers
Every 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."
