Are you joking?

lil mama dressed as a baby last year, so either those photos are from then or she reprised it this year too. unfortunate either way.

[sheepish]I really do wonder about the blindspot - I try to keep at least a cursory knowledge of mainstream radio - but man it looks like i missed the boat on this one. (wondering to self what else have i missed?) She's not all bad, in fact. I kinda like her song a lot. [/sheepsish]
Ah well, will blame it on the internet. But whatever.

Wale, who is serving as MC for the house band, told the crowd, “You can’t fault a man for speaking his mind,” which was promptly met by boos from the Radio City Music Hall crowd.

hopefully my knowing who taylor swift is will excuse this question: who is "je" and why did he put lil mama up to it? Did she just sort of jump up on stage while jay was performing? Must youtube at lunch..

Quick, lets come up with a catchy name for the inevitable series of "Ye Interruptin" comics! How about that?
― Evan, Monday, 14 September 2009 15:50 (fourteen years ago) link
the look on her face was classic. also fuck her for acting like she deserved some big Oscar-style ovation at the end, she should have just walked out and waved and thanked Beyonce. almost as self-absorbed as Kanye but not anywhere near as funny or classic. what a boring lame this taylor swift is

Katy Perry's "stepping on a kitten" comment is OTM but unfortunately makes me giggle at this whole thing even more.
When are Kanye and Lil Mama going into the studio together?
