Kanye West takes microphone from VMA winner to diss her. Beyonce makes up for it.

Wow, I don't even like Taylor Swift (or Kanye for that matter) and I just felt so sorry for the poor girl.
But even so, I don't feel it's really worth an fpp. So someone is a dick at the VMAs. I've seen this at least 20 times before I came here, and I wouldn't be surprised if MTV set this up to make some headlines somewhere.

Though, I have to say, how the fuck could someone actually watch that Taylor Swift video without gouging their ears out after the first 30 seconds. Luckily I manages to click the close button at around the 25 second mark or I would have suffered permenant harm.

I come here not to defend Kanye West but to bury him. To be honest I think he's right. I think the stance he's taken against awards being for the most marketable artist as opposed to the most signifigant artist/video is a good one. I don't even want to watch that video because I know I'm going to see someone whose art I admire for its hard work and detail, embarass a young girl. Something simply gauche. Kanye has yet to learn that just because your right doesn't justify everything. Somethings are better left unsaid.

The Beyonce video is quite boring, except it's a lot of dancing in one take, which is kind of odd rare these days, except at points theres something kind of weird and a bit fakey looking about it like they maybe stiched it together from a lot of takes or manipulated or its all fake CGI or something, so I don't know.
But it's not the aural equivalent of sewage and, hey, who doesn't like hip wiggling?
Is Kanye's point that he thinks it should have won all of the categories or is he just a bit confused?

Only slightly related to tonight's shenanigans, but...
The only time I hear music is when I'm at the gym or pool. Usually the verses get drowned out and all I catch are the refrains. And if you listen to just the refrain of You Belong With Me, it sounds a lot like a lesbian love song. She's signing about how she's a lonely geek, and here's this pretty cheerleader. And how she's the only one that understands her...
I kept telling my friends and co-workers about this catchy, edgy song I hear bits and pieces of. Well, one day I found the music video and boy was I disappointed. Instead of being punkish and alternative, it's one of the most overused teenage cliches ever.
Taylor Swift: you need to rewrite that song, now! Trust me, it's better the other way.

Kanye cannot sing worth a damn. He is a derk (portmanteau for dick and jerk). He has an undeservedly huge ego, is a boor and a shithead.
Beyoncé, however, is a classy lady, and while I don't usually really care about these sorts of things, I was really glad to see her do what she did.
Also: Lady GaGa is awesome. Crazy, and awesome.

Dear god I've reached that age where I'm no longer too alternative and punk to know the MTV music awards exist and I'm out of touch enough that all that stuff just seems boring and lame. *that's* the video of the year? Really? And ... whoah...has she got like a cyber arm in it? The "put a ring on it" Bracer of Defense +2? That's pretty cool. Does it shoot blaster rays, or like, function independently of her body?

I'm not sure exactly why this is; politics, perhaps? Or the economy making people less interested in following the minutia of some vapid starlet's wasted life? I can only guess.

I think the ladies of GoFugYourself can shed some light on this, via their live blog of the event:
5 p.m.: ...Lady Gaga emerges from her limo in a gold Phantom mask, giant hat, and feathered collar; the whole thing looks so heavy that she can barely turn from side to side. She's practically hoisted to her feet from the car. Pretty soon she's going to start arriving places via an elaborate system of pulleys and wires, a la Bruno, except with less man-sac.
5:05 p.m.: Dude, Lady Gaga arrived with KERMIT THE FROG. Does he know she wore Animal as a skirt? Wait... does he know she wore HIM as a shirt?
5:13 p.m.: Lady Gaga seriously can't move in this stupid outfit. I am so tired of her shtick. Kermit shows up to give her some press credentials and she kisses him. I wish the Muppets weren't being dragged into this. Somewhere on high, Jim Henson is all, "Girl, please. Miss Piggy would karate-chop her ass into next week, and then when next week gets here she'd kick it again."
Etcetera. I love it myself. Hopefully it will encourage more people to run around dressed like Muppets.

Who cares about this garbage. Nobody who matters listens to popular music. If a band sells more than seventy copies of their album it is obviously crap. Now lets put our fedoras back on, drink some Pabst, and listen to some Arcade Fire while we surf Pitchfork.

It was a serious question. I honestly didn't think they were real women. I thought they were either Real Dolls, or that they'd been created in some 3d animated graphics program.
None of them look or move like any woman I've ever seen in real life.

He felt that the words showed the world that he had, in his words, “little baby Tourette’s, maybe not quite diagnosed” as evidenced by how “the truth just comes out accidentally like what’s off the top of [my] mind.”
