My VMA '11 Round Up

Hey guys! Since I am not tired at 3-something a.m., I decided to whip up a post about the Video Music Awards 2011.

BUT, if you want to watch the awards first or just for yourself later, here is the official MTV listing for the show's videos HERE.

But anyway! Here are MY choices of highlights of the night!

---
Worst Dressed Of The Night

Britney Spears

I love Brit! And people really did like this look a lot.. and I am sure you like it too, but not me! It looks like a weird sparkly romper to me. And the way it fits her, makes her look pregnant to me. And the frills on the sleeves and bottom do not help to me.

Justin Bieber

Ew, I really don't see Justin with any 'swag' in this look. Though I love bold colored jeans, the leopard kicks kill this look for me. AND his pants are sagging, gross. But at least he has a fabulous pet snake [seen on his right hand] to make this look better.

Katy Perry's 'Block Head' Look

 

Umm.. yeah. Need I say more?

Deena From 'Jersey Shore'

She literally Tweeted when going to the show 'I got my Skittlez dress on!' And boy, you sure were right.. *puke*

On The Fence Looks

Beyonce

Hmm, to be honest, at first sight, I love it, its very simple and nicely shaped. But after a few times looking at it, I am a bit iffy about it.. It kind of reminds me of a moo moo. But none the less, Queen B looks fab!

Miley Cyrus

To be honest, I am leaning more to the 'love' side of the fence. But I don't know, maybe the floral and leopard print clash just a tad bit. But still, she doesn't look half bad.

Katy Perry's 'Sexy In Black & Purple' Look

To be frank, I like it a lot. But I am not sure if I would call it a best dressed or not.

Kim Kardashian

Eh.. Its just.. eh..

Craziest Looks Of The Night

 Katy Perry's 'Geisha' & 'Record' Dresses

I am in LOVE with the geisha dress! I know its extremely tacky, but it looks so awesome to me!

LMFAO with Shuffle Bot

(sorry for bad photo quality)

I didn't know what was funnier when watching their interview, how RedFoo (guy on the right) was trying to make Kreayshawn (she is nominated for 'Best New Artist') to grab his junk where the hand print was, or when Shuffle Bot busted out his fancy dance moves!

Nicki Minaj's Japan Inspired Look

 I actually am in love with this look. Its not because its Nicki being 'crazy' or 'bad', (like some of her fans say), I just love the idea behind it, and I am a sucker for Japanese flared clothing.


Jessie J's Black Carpet & Stage Looks

After being injured earlier this summer, Jessie J tries her best to be as crazy as ever with this red carpet look. But her stage look was even more extreme.

Best Looks Of The Night

Selena Gomez

 Though some were iffy about this look, being that it sort of looks like a vampire cape. This has to be on of the top looks of the night for sure.


Demi Lovato

I'm lovin' it. But is it me, or does she look really different? I don't know, maybe she just got a tan.




Kelly Rowland

I think this is a bad photo of the dress, but really, when she was being interviewed, she looked fierce up close.

Tyler The Creator's Tie-dye Cat Tee

Okay.. okay.. the tee shirt is my guilty pleasure, I love tie-dye, its.. funky. And the cat makes it even more loveable for me.

The Nights Highlights




Lady Gaga performing as Jo Calderone

Lady G opened the show, seen during the show, and seen after the show, in only ONE get-up, her as Jo Calderone (which seems to be her 'boyfriend'). She gave a very moving act as Jo and an amazing performance of her new single 'You and I.'




Bruno Mars Singing 'Valerie' - A Tribute To Amy Winehouse

 To be honest, I wouldn't call it moving, but it was an excellent performance dedicated to Amy with one of my favorite songs actually 'Valerie' by Amy Winehouse.


Britney Spears Tribute

MTV decided to create a new award called 'TThe Michael Jackson Video Vanguard' Award. And Lady Gaga, as Jo, presented it, and I quote, she said, 'I use to hang posters of her on my wall and touch myself..' But anyway, they had an amazing dance performance by at least 50 to 60 12-18 year old girls, it was so cute and a bit weird to see tons of different mini-Brits all over the stage.


Brit and Jo's Almost Kiss

The crowd with wild when after Brit accepted her 'Vanguard' (I suggest you watch it for yourself) award, her and 'Jo' were toe to toe, in a deep eye lock, and Brit called it off saying 'I've done that already'. But Jo is later seen 'snoodling' with Britney after the show.


Chris Brown's Epic Dance-Off

Chris Brown killed it on stage. Nothing else I can say. [Video]


And my last show highlight..




Beyonce Is Pregnant

 That's right, Queen B and Jay-Z are expecting! The media is going crazy over this right now. And even though I  don't think much of it, I think its awesome she is going to be a mother, all I have to say is, ABOUT DAMN TIME!
