I have watched to VMA's every year for as far back as I can remember. This year, I got more excited than ever because so many of my favorites were going to be preforming. Here is my take of how the night went.
Everyone wanted to know what Gaga was going to wear, to my surprise and many others, she just simply dressed like a man all night. I really enjoyed her performance, especially because she had the amazing Brian Fay and I just love that song. She was SO into her character, she played him all night long. Her love for theatre really showed.
I was really upset that Katy Perry won for best collaboration. I'm not a big Katy Perry fan in the first place, but I REALLY loved Chris Brown's collaboration with Busta Rhymes and Lil Wayne and was certain that they would win. Did anyone else think that Jessie J sang firework better than Mrs.Brand? Just sayin..
The Foo Fighters won best rock video, and it was so so deserved. Love them.
Chris Brown can dance, and he definitely showcased that last night because he wasn't doing much singing. I adore him and his performance was high energy and fun. He looked so sharp in his suit too.
Now for one of my favorite people ever Beyoncé!
The Temptations like style was so unexpected, and she wore it well. My best friend texted me before the show and said "BEYONCE IS PREGGERS!" so I was waiting for some sign to see that it was true. Like the Diva she is, she showed everyone in the most fierce was possible.
SO EXCITED FOR HER!
My absolute favorite performance of the night was Adele.
She had me in tears.
It was beautiful to just see her up there with the piano singing her heart out. I felt it. I felt all the pain she was going through and I cried like baby. Just beautiful.
My second favoritee performance was the Britney Spears tribute. I'm a 90's baby so I knew all of those songs and even attempted to learn some moves. It was put together so well and I loved that it was other young ladies doing the moves. I think I saw Cachi from IaMmE as Hit Me Baby One More Time, Britney?
Amy Winehouse's' tribute was superb. Bruno Mars' voice is amazing for the song. Amy is missed.
Lil Wayne closed the night with his song How to love. Can I be honest here and say that when I say the video for this song I broke down in tears. Maybe I'm just a big baby, haha. When Wayne started rapping, I had no idea what was going on because everything was bleeped out. So that sucked. Once he was done, the show was just over, like that...
All in all the VMA's were pretty sweet this year. I got to see my girls Beyoncé and Adele, Britney received the Micheal Jackson award, and Foo Fighters won an award.
