Justin's VMA Performance
 

Hey I was just wondering what any of you thought about Justin Timberlake's VMA solo performance tonight. I was expecting a lot more than what I saw... let me know what you all thought...

Agreed
 

I was expecting more. But I'm not sure of what.

I got really disapointed when it was him and the 4 male back up dancers. It made me wish the rest of the *NSYNC boys were up there.

He seemed to be lip syncing but was way off. We all know he can sing, so I'm thinking that he was lip syncing due to the fact that it's a really new song. I've only heard it once on the radio. Maybe he's not comfortable singing it live yet. But I'd credit the "being off" part on some technical problem. Like his ear piece had too much of a delay or something. :(


Where the heck was Lance tonight???:confused:

I herd Axl Rose played last night (refused to call them GnR cause they are without Slash or Duff)

Justin was just trying to imitate Michael Jackson.... his dancing, his style of dress. I REALLY expected MJ to come out during the song... he was there at the VMAs, and NSync has worked with him before.

I HATED the way the show was shot. Whatever filters they used on the camera, etc. made it look horribly NOT live.

Axel and whoever were horrible. Axel could have at least PRACTICED beforehand. Half the words didn't even come audibly out of his mouth. He needs to hit the gym and get a vocal coach. I LOVE Guns, but yikes, this was scary. ESPECIALLY the guitarists, who looked like they came straight from Marilyn Manson's stylist.

I'm also sad that I missed Christina... the 10 minutes I don't watch the show, she's on. I always get a kick out of how ghetto she tries to act. She's from friggin WEXFORD, which is a well to do suburb outside of Pittsburgh. But she talks like she's from the ghetto. She actually disses Pittsburgh and the people here everytime she can. I watched the VH1 behind the music story on her, i laughed so hard. Says how much she hated HS and the people there, etc. Her ATTITUDE is why no one liked her. Several of my sisters went to High school with her and have said that she was always really snobby when she came in... she'd wear leather pants to high school and have a really snotty- i don't want to be here attitude.

Oh well, it was good for a laugh. I didnt' think Jimmy Fallon was too funny, except for when they made fun of the American Idol hosts. THat was funny as hell, those two guys are just idiots.

I missed it. I'm sure I'll catch it during one of the million times that they rerun it.

I know, that totally bugged me...it was like replacement Nsync.

Totally agreed! His song and style was like Michael Jackson meets Usher (who has also been impersonating MJ lately). And yes, it didn't look live to me either!

As to the rest of the show, the performance were good and a little more varied this year. I thought Pink, Eminem, JaRule & Ashanti, and the Hives vs. the Vines all did well...my favorite was Puffy/P Diddy's ensemble performance. I knew Christina was going to end up presenting the award to Eminem, I was just expecting something more to happen.

Axel should just retire.

MTV=Crap

Screw Major League Baseball, I call for an MTV strike.

Anyone with me?

KDdani,

I thought so too, it was on at a party I was at so I couldn't hear him, but he looked like he was trying to combine Michael Jackson and Usher into one person and make it his style....HAHA

Cory

Here here. I've been on strike since they took out alternative nation and headbanger balls.

MTV=Mindless Music for Mindless People

you know how on the special christina said she there were girls in her gym class she didn't like or whatever? yeah i know a chick here that used to tag her in the head with the volleyballs in class... that's probly why.

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the idea of someone in a Pittsburgh high school wearing leather pants to school :eek:

Did she go to N.A. or North Hills? I'm thinking N.A?

Tracy -

I think Wexford is NA but I always get those 2 confused...I think I heard when they originally came back here when she was younger she lived in Rochester (first K-12 all under one roof in the state, so you know it's not very large).

Well..
 

I thought Justin's performance was really good. I like *N Sync too, but he does have a solo album coming out, so he is just trying to promote that.

As far as Christina...:eek:

WHY was she wearing (rather NOT wearign that), and WHY was she trying to talk ghetto? Sigh. Not sure what she was trying to accomplish with that one.

Pink sure was drunk, lol. Matter of fact, many of the acts/presentors/acceptors seemed a little intoxicated.
