Oh... my... gosh.
Chris Rock is a comedy genius! He goes totally beyond the limit... I love it! His little obession with Jennifer Lopez's butt was getting a LITTLE old, but still funny as heck.
My favorite performance of the night HAD to be Kid Rock, Run DMC, and Aerosmith. Everyone and their brother knows that Rock is the King of White Trash, and boyee did he display it at the VMA's! Complete with the greasy hair and Pumas, baby he had it all! But his performance was incredible, especially when Aerosmith (whom I love) came out. THAT is quality entertainment right there.
Comin in at a close second had to be Eminem. That guy can bust a rhyme like no other. Man. My friend and I could not get over his blinking ROLE MODEL sweatshirt!!! How does this guy think of all this nonsense he does? Crazy.
On to Britney Spears and NSync:
Okay, when I heard that Britney and them were going to perform together, I was so enthused. I was expecting some kickin medleys, phenomenal dance moves, and some special surprises. Well... I got 1 out of 3. Sort of. I was SO disappointed.
Although I am alone around here, I like Britney Spears. I know ya'll know that because you guys remind me all the time why I shouldn't.=) But when I saw the lockers/classroom setting, I knew I was in for a LONG performance.
Indeed, it was. Why did they even NEED mics? It's not like they... oh... SANG or anything. Lord no. Britney's performance was crap, save the choreography. Thank God that girl can dance, because it is the only way she will salvage any of her career in the near future. Girly, "ooh's" and "aws" will not get you too far.
No WAY!!! NSync was ::gasp:: sitting in the desks? Nu-uh! I only didn't notice Lance, since he's SITTING right in front. And Joe's flaming red Cheetoh hair was not noticable at all. Retarded.
The "Tearin" medley was so not doin it for me, either. Maybe if they SANG, it'd be okay. Sorry, but it really gets me when people lip-synch. It didn't sound like the song at all. I guess they were trying to add some "edge" to the song or whatever. But it ended up just sounding like a broken record.
What's this? JC Chasez has a tattoo? Hmm, what happened to being afraid of needles? Ya know, I never got that. He says he's afraid of needles, yet how does he shoot up? Makes no sense to me. Whatever, his mug was on the screen wayyyyyyyy too much.
Some advice for the guys of NSync: I know you guys are trying to get edgier, and wriggle out of that bubble-gum pop image. Don't deny it. It's part of a boyband's lifespan. As what I like to call it, it's what separates the boybands from the boy music groups. And I understand. But boys, please... as the saying goes, 'Stay NSync'. Don't try to be someone you're not. Because "people will see through the act, and people will see through the phoniness'. And I'm spent.
