Official 2021 VMAs Watch Thread

OMG the Madonna opening. The fillers in her face and ass are SHOCKING!

Other than Madonna so far I don’t know who any of these people are.

There are some production issues tonight. I wonder if they are using their second-string light and sound guys?

Idk why they did this in Brooklyn. Should have kept it LA or Manhattan

Billie didn’t look happy when J Lo came out

JLo just walked out on stage. I wonder how she and Madonna interacted backstage?

I hope JLo pointed at her fake ass and laughed, and laughed and laughed. Then stuck her finger down her throat.

R6 they probably didn’t.

Jesus Christ who is the Olivia chick they are trying to make "happen"?

I guess no one sings live on these shows anymore.

Is it really moving this slow or has the thread died at 10 posts?

I turned it off r11.

Is he wearing short pants or long shorts?

Machine Gun Kelly just announced that he and his wife Megan Fox are expecting a child. I didn't know they were married.

Madonna, j lo, Cyndi….can we expect Janet and Mariah to show up next?

Almost 40 minutes in and only 15 replies. Are we that old or is this that shitty?

Rita Ora still gets gigs? How?

Who can resist human muppet Ed Sheeran?

I am 70 years old and I am recording it, I know from past experience that the overwhelming majority of the show won't be worth watching so I will watch later in the week.

Pop music isn't meant to be this geriatric.

Fire Bush 🔥

Lil nas x creature just aint it.

most of this shit is not music

R19, for whatever reason I find that I can only watch these types of shows live.

R17, she comes from family money in Europe. So think of her more as a Paris Hilton Socialite type versus a “singer.”

R22, sis is doing too much…

I’m 90 yrs old and I am still watching it. But I might switch to RHOP and RHOSLC later

Avril Lavigne?? I thought she died a while ago.

Music is in a sad state. This crap sucks.

They're not, R14. She's still married to Brian Austin Green.

Is that Avril Lavigne? The real one or the stand in?

Is megan fox preggers?

Isn’t eilish a racist?

Camilla cabello’s hips are HUGE

Willie Eilish and Camille Caballo are both tubby little heifers.

More applause for Cyndi Lauper than Camilla and Mendes

How is Camila not pregnant yet? She and Shawn need to do another duet.

I'm embarrassed for all these people. Watching Mendez right now. He has great hair. That's all I've got.

[quote]How is Camila not pregnant yet?

Because Shawn is a gay bottom.

Shawn is just a boring performer.

Like Shawn’s near croptop

Is this latto person trans?

Chris Frantz said Genius of Love put his and Tina Weymouth’s kids through college.

simone biles trying to milk that 15 min of fame...nobody cares.

Madonna’s ass is tragic.

R45 Hagdonna is tragic not just her fake ass.

Justin!!!!!

Lil Nas X understands the value of a spectacle and I appreciate that.

Chlöe!

Booty so big, have mercy!!!!

Her lip syncing is way off

My fucking ears!

Have mercy!

Lil Nas X's performance.

Jack Harlow and Lil Nas X performing at the #VMAs

No offense, but I wish Lil Nas X would start having male dancers that are attractive to most. Norma I’d dancers are bona fide hunks and studs. Lil Nas X dancers always look like effeminate prancing stereotypes.

R56 So he hires dancers just like him?

[quote] I am 70 years old and I am recording it, I know from past experience that the overwhelming majority of the show won't be worth watching so I will watch later in the week.

This is why I record and watch later, the pre show was an hour and half long, it took me about 15 minutes to watch the parts I was interested in.

Looks like some strong masc energy being released a little bit….

Janet is trending on Twitter because of the VMAs

Roid rage anyone?

Normani ate that bro

Ok I see why Janet is trending

Did MTV do away with the MJ Vanguard award?

Conor McGregor is psycho

YAS TWITTER

Normani is so lame with the faux-lesbo stuff. So corny and tired.😴 No wonder her career is a flop.

Billie eilish is the most rock and roll person at the VMAs they could get to introduce Foo Fighters…sad state for music

Normani and Chloe make me sad they will do anything for views and careers except make decent music.

Janet should have introduced the VMAs. Not Hag

I had to turn it because most of these people are so lame.

ChloexHalle have one song I like. That’s it.

Wow, an actual band that plays instruments.

[quote]Janet should have introduced the VMAs.

I doubt Janet wants anything to do with this mess. You don’t see any other 80’s/90’s icons there because they know MTV is a shadow of its former self.

R70 well Janet is the queen of pop

Zzzz, these award shows are so dull now. And no one can sing anymore...

[quote]Normani is so lame with the faux-lesbo stuff. So corny and tired.😴 No wonder her career is a flop.

It was embarrassing. It's bad enough the song is terrible, but she is trying so hard to create an image instead of being an artist. And those tired vocal runs!

R74 but Madonna is there

R68 the Foo Fighters are lame too, so I don't see the issue.

R75 Get real whispercoo Janet is a a fat has been.

R79 the foo fighters are 100 times better than anyone we’ve seen tonight, except for maybe Cyndi Lauper

Who is this with Alicia Keys, her son?

Alicia always looks like she just smoked a huge blunt in the green room.

Justin Bieber is bald now. That’s why he didn’t take his hood off.

Sza is beautiful.

The VMAs always do better when they’re out west for some reason. Every time they come East it’s slow and boring. Strange.

Justin rocks!

People who tell lies on others should repent. Justin is not going bald

Where is lil mama to crash the performance ?

They also get bigger stars when they go out west.

Why wasn’t Billie nominated. Didn’t she just have a new album?

What about Kacey Musgraves? Can she be anymore melancholy? Jesus. She is so overwrought with it all. Can’t she just make a fun, carefree hit every once in a while?

Kacey is country

Latto!

Where are all the posters?

wow, wearing a chair on your head...stupid things people do to make them look cool

Damn Swiss Beatz looks beat.

Busta

Did WAP win anything?

Giveon

Love Paris Hilton

This Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox publicity shit is too much. Also, he sounds retarded.

Jack, don’t say anything Sus

David Lee Roth? Both he and the show should be ashamed.

I didn’t watch it but from all the performances I’ve seen it’s like a contest for who’s the biggest skank

Wow, so bad!

R104 lil nas x won

Spotify killed the Video Star

Olivia is super hot. Her outfit and performance will kick her up a notch. Her music is everywhere. I’m not her target audience but she hit on something.

Ariana was not there. She is too sexual. Basically a glorified stipend with naughty lyrics to match.

*stripper

R108 actually that’s a great name for a sugar baby whore.

“Where’s Katrice?”

“You know that bitch with some old man, somewhere. She’s a Stipend!”

R108 Olivia is boring though.

Olivia is a hit making machine

R112 yeah but they said that about Billie Ellish. These newer acts have a short shelf life today.

Barely over 100 replies to this thread. That’s how irrelevant this show is now.

R113 Yep billy hasn't had a hit this entire new album cycle. A flop after her first era. Sad.

R115 Gee NO ONE saw that coming lol

Silly Eyelash.

R83 wouldn't you?

Janet's pop culture influence was all over this thing and she didn't even have to show up.

R119 no one cares jabba

No one gives a fuck about Janet Jackson. She was irrelevant before Bille Eyegash was born.

R121 except she didn’t have to go to the awards show to show off her fake , deflated ass implants to trend….talk about desperation.

[quote]except she didn’t have to go to the awards show to show off her fake , deflated ass implants to trend….talk about desperation.

Precisely. Madonna had to show up and make a fool out of herself with her big fake butt and botched face, crassly declaring that she is "still here bitches" in order to garner attention. Meanwhile, Janet is across the Atlantic minding her business and STILL manages to trend because performers showed up to pay tribute to her past performances. THAT is the mark of a true Queen.

I MARY-ed myself when I found myself rooting for WAP to win.

I thought it pathetic that this was the only song from the past year that I had remembered.

Megan Fox brought the hotness the VMA needed

She did

R125 you spelled tasteless wrong.

It’s the VMAs not a place for taste.

Copying Rose McGowan is uber-pathetic.

R129 they were too high to care.
