Whilst Robyn did not get the opportunity the grace the main stage of this year’s VMA’s she did get to rick the house show. She and Deadmau5 did about a 50 seconds of “Dancing On My Own.” The song had a dubstep twist and was neat but the original would have better connected with the audience, listen below.
Last night was Lady GaGa’s night at the 2010 MTV VMA’s as she won 8 awards including “Video Of the Year.” GaGa rocked three crazy pieces of fashion, all of which seemed to be ones that she appeared in recently in magazine pictorials. After shedding tears of joy, GaGa scratched the plans of a New Year’s album title announcement and just blurted the three worded title right there. The title is… (more…)
Let’s just stat off by stating, the aesthetics of Kanye West are so rich. His minimalistic approach and eye for the arts take him many steps above his contemporaries.
Two years since Kanye West closed the 2008 Video Music Awards and one year after the a public incident that would almost have him permanently blacklisted, West returned in top form performing the closing song, “Runaway,” featuring Pusha T at the 2010 MTV VMA’s:
“Let’s have a toast for the douche bags, let’s have a toast for the assholes, let’s have a toast for the scumbags, every one of them that I know,” West sung on the hook of the new song, titled ‘Runaway’. “Let’s have a toast to the jerk-offs, that’d never take work off, baby I got a plan, runaway as fast as you can.” [SOURCE]
WE NEED THIS NEW ALBUM, LIKE NOW. The album isn’t 100% Hip-Hop like he claimed. All the songs sound experimental and there is still some autotune usage but it all sounds GREAT. With the negative included, Kanye West is one interesting dramatic being.
Since the infamous incident at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, the mood shifted and apologies were being made and accepted. Taylor Swift took to the stage last night, not performing her new single, “Mine,” but performing a brand new song addressing Kanye West.
Goodness gracious, the song made a tear fall despite the less-than-perfect vocals. When news broke that Swift would sing about last year’s incident a few hours before the main show started, the only thing that came up was a song of insults. After all, it was reported that Swift thought Kanye’s public Twitter apology was shameless self-promotion. That did not seem to be the case with this new song:
“Wasn’t it easier in your lunch box days? Always a bigger bed to crawl into. Wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in everything, and everybody believed in you? It’s alright, just wait and see, your string of lights are still bright to me. Who you are is now where you’ve been, you’re still an innocent.” [SOURCE]
With the video footage intro of last year’s baffling occurrence and the age of 32 being mentioned a few times it was obvious the song is about West. It was a nice thing to see Swift do what she did because there’s no sense in holding a grudge. Everybody move on and be happy and that’s just what the sweetheart Taylor Swift did.
WE APOLOGIZE BUT AT THIS TIME THERE IS NO VID. AVAILABLE FOR NON-US RESIDENTS.
Last night marked the national US television debut performance of the extraordinary Florence + The Machine. After feeling a bit of pressure to leave a great first impression on those who were not familiar with her, I think it’s safe to say that Florence can rest easy. Florence performed her single the “Dog Days Are Over” in an artistic way only she can.
There were no silly shock gimmicks to try to make the performance memorable, this performance just relied on pure talent and great art direction that had the entire audience giving a well deserved standing ovation to the super nice redhead. From the beginning with the bird’s eye view to her final bow, the entire performance was engaging. Look out for her debut album, Lungs, which has been out for over a year, to appear on the Billboard 200.

Just when the 2010 VMA’s performance line-up was looking full of mess with one or two exceptions, it was recently confirmed by Ciara herself that she is to take the stage at this year’s ceremonies:
Club Mansion was so much fun, my night couldn’t have eneded any sweeter! Off 2 LA to shoot Gimmie Dat, Speechless, and Perform on the VMA’s! [SOURCE]
Correct us if we’re wrong but won’t this make it the first time, EVER, that Ciara performs solely on the VMA stage. It’s about damn time and this is just the sort of promo she needs for her album. September 12, tune in people.
Kanye West may still be on a handful of some people’s bad sides but as far as MTV and the rest of the public go, Kanye is good company. It was announced today that Kanye West will be performing at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. There is no confirmation as to what will happen on the stage that night but hopefully he performs a new single.
West has many “surprises” for us in the upcoming months to his November release album. But back to this 2010 VMA performance, we wonder if all will go peaceful or will some being feel the need to disrespect Kanye as he did another last year… *Kanye Shrug*
The English firebomb that is Florence Welch is set to perform at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. Florence + The Machine picked up 4 nominations for “Dog Days Are Over” which appeared on her debut album, Lungs.
Being the epitome of originality and raw talent, Welch will surely bring life to the award’s show which seems to be fronting an unimpressive list of performers this year, thus far.
