The VMAs were a disaster.
It looks like all the budget this year went to Taylor Swift because she
was the vocal point of the whole night, and it was a snoozefest.
Madonna opened up the show with
a sloppy performance filled with lip-syncing and stumbling.
It was so bad at one point,
Madonna was being carried by her background dancers,
and even though her performance was
so awful, fans are defending her,
even against PinkPantheress, who was seen mocking Madonna's
speech. Somehow caught everyone off guard
for all the wrong reasons, and VMA
Oh my, they're like
carrying Madonna through
her performance
because she can't even hold
herself up.
I mean, this is bad, really bad.
Is this not elder abuse?
The VMAs were crazy, messy, uncoordinated,
confusing, just like Madonna's performance,
but honestly, the whole show was a wreck,
and in this video, we're going to go through
everything what happened and what happened behind the scenes.
Now, I love the award shows, and I love the VMAs,
and to see what celebrities showed up,
but it seemed like last night's award show was very lackluster.
Madonna opened up the award show,
and she was lip-syncing, she was stumbling, she was
barely able to hold herself up,
and she actually won the most awards last night, which was
Which was confusing to me because I felt like Taylor Swift
Swift was going to win everything,
so they kept having Madonna come up over and over again on the stage.
Every speech seemed like she was getting more and more lost.
This person says Madonna is 68, but she thinks she's in her 20s.
She wants to attract the young fans, but it's not happening.
She's a legacy artist, but this is so embarrassing.
You don't need to spread your legs and have your sagging tits out.
Hashtag desperate grandma.
Madonna Loki seemed out of it,
and that whole clip showed her lip syncing.
We're 20 minutes delayed, and they could have cut that out.
Madonna did open up the show with Sabrina Carpenter and Charli XCX.
Here is Madonna.
She's winded here.
Charli has her little, like, diaper sticking out of her outfit.
And the entire performance.
was really chaotic. I don't think anyone's microphone was really on.
Maybe Sabrina Carpenter's.
This person writes, is Madonna wearing butt pads?
I don't know if you guys know this,
but Madonna's had like butt pads or a BBL for a very long time.
This is nothing new. I'll never
forget when she first got it too. I was shocked.
I mean, the world has never been the same.
This person on Reddit writes, Madonna looked
a little bit ill when she went through those two
guys. Is she fully recovered from her bacterial sickness?
She looks like she's about to pass out.
I hope that she's okay.
Another person says, I noticed that.
The one guy was helping her up the stairs.
Is she sick?
And this was definitely a mess up on the VMAs part
because there was a scene that was showing Madonna going up the stairs
and they were like pulling her up the stairs
and she didn't even have her microphone near her face.
It was her voice playing over.
So she was supposed to be singing,
but they were just struggling to get her up at the top of the stairs
before they got a wide shot.
Looked like Madonna was struggling in a couple shots.
This Madonna Sabrina performance is not good.
I'm sorry.
No amount of edginess can save this terrible song,
which is crazy because that same song won an award.
Like, I just did not, I didn't really, like,
listen to the Madonna and Sabrina Carpenter song.
Comment below if you did.
This person asks, is Madonna okay?
She's not even saying the words or trying to lip sync.
Oh, here we go again.
See, she's not even lipping the right words.
I mean, I get it.
She's 68 years old.
This is a lot of work bouncing around the stage.
Even the, like, VMA executives are trying to be like, oh,
yeah, Madonna's going to be dancing all around the stage.
Nobody can dance like she can.
I mean, at one point, she's going to need a break.
She's winded.
Do, do, do, do.
She can't even do the...
Charlie's got the do, do, do, do, do
while she's just catching her breath in the back.
I'm sorry, but Madonna looked ridiculous.
While she sounds good, her dancing looked absurd
and the bathroom humping scenes were
nauseating.
Madonna would do herself a big favor
and stop trying to act like a 20 year old and come
to terms with the fact that she's an AARP member.
What does that mean?
Madonna should retire.
This person writes, I'm sorry.
I didn't think that was very good.
Don't apologize.
It was bad.
Singers should sing.
And like I said, Madonna was racking up all of the awards.
So she was giving weird speeches.
At one point, she pulled a little laser pointer out of her.
She said her.
You guys didn't get my joke,
did you, about the laser up
my ass. Did you get it?
It was up here all night, and I, yeah, and I took it out.
One person said, I watched Madonna just pull
a vape out of her ass mid-speech.
And what is Madonna doing and saying?
Hashtag VMAs.
But enough about Madonna.
The show was actually hosted by Snoop Dogg.
And you know what?
I usually love Snoop Dogg, but there
was something about him wearing his glasses the whole time.
I feel like being a host of a show,
you need to be able to, like, connect with our audience.
And the fact that he had sunglasses the whole time, I felt like...
This could be Snoop's clone.
Like, did you know that Snoop actually does have a clone
that he hires for events when he's really busy
or if he goes to a certain state or a certain country,
he'll bring his clone, his, like, lookalike,
have that person go and do these events.
As Snoop Dogg, so that he could be seen in multiple places
and just try to get as much work done as he can.
I mean, him wearing the glasses the whole time
makes me think it was Snoop Dogg's clone.
In a pre-game treat, the D-O-double-G
has given his first performance since landing down under,
playing a surprise show for lucky party-goers
at the Espy in St Kilda.
But while the real Snoop was jamming on the decks inside,
his official doppelganger has been having fun
duping fans on the streets of Melbourne.
And Snoop Dogg's official doppelganger,
Eric Finch, joins us now from Melbourne, the one
and only, as we just heard there, Eric, how are you?
How are you doing?
Man, I'm doing outstanding.
How y'all doing?
Sarika.
Lisa actually won an award and she performed
and I loved her performance.
She has a new song that's called Sarika,
which is how you say hello in Thai.
She is Thai and I love Thailand and I love Thai people.
She even said Kop khun ka, which is how you say, like, thank you, Kop khun ka.
And yeah, Sarika, and she's actually from Thailand,
which we love the Thai people.
Shout out to the Thai people.
Now for Bruno Mars, he came on shortly after she won that award.
And I was so excited for his performance
because one thing about Bruno Mars is that he can
take you there with his emotions, with the sound, with the lyrics.
Like when I saw him start to sing, he's just so good.
His lyrics, they just take you to those moments.
It makes you think about where you are.
Had me tearing up a little bit until I was completely
Turned off.
Taken out of the zone.
Because ************, he wasn't even there.
Bruno Mars was not even there.
The VMAs got so cheap that they actually purchased
a performance that he did on his tour.
Because I realized, that is not where the VMAs are held.
So they just played a fake Bruno Mars performance as a bathroom break.
Like, VMAs, who do you think you're fooling?
This is not the VMA stage.
And I was really, I was,
before they started to do the camera turn,
I was really starting to tear up.
I was there.
And then until I wasn't,
and I realized that this could be like months old
for all we know.
But there were a bunch of people on X.
I saw them all convinced that he was actually there.
So I guess the VMA did their jobs.
Half the world believes that that actually happened at the award show.
This person writes, Bruno Mars is not even there.
Don't give him any awards.
Bruno Mars' taped performance proves that VMA struggles
to get A-list stars to do live performances.
Seems like largely new artists trying
to break through are the ones who show up.
Everyone else goes to this show.
It's a shell of what it used to be.
MTV can't even give Tinashe a performance spot
when she dropped an album two days ago.
And that's what I'm saying.
I mean, I'm a huge Tinashe fan.
Out of all the Taylor Swifts in the world, just be a Tinashe.
This person writes, what is the point of the Bruno Mars clip?
To get people to see him on tour?
I don't know.
I guess his tour was done.
It just seemed like it was time filler.
A really cheap move.
I mean, Snoop Dogg is our host.
We really didn't even see much of him.
He could have given us a five minute bit.
there and that would have like filled up the Bruno Mars time.
I just feel like Snoop Dogg was
kind of a weak choice. I would rather go with like a comedian
who's ready to talk to the audience.
Sabrina and Madonna did win a VMA for their collaborated song
and they did a little speech
together. Madonna almost got Sabrina in trouble.
She claims that she had to personally DM Sabrina
because it looked like like Sabrina's team
was taking a long time to reply to Madonna.
Madonna, I mean, I feel like it's not an issue with Sabrina's team,
but rather an issue with maybe Madonna being
as relevant as Sabrina Carpenter
and maybe Sabrina wanting to not drag her reputation down with Madonna.
And I love Madonna, but I just don't think that she's like
a hot artist right now to be walking away with all these VMA awards.
It seems like a setup.
But I love Madonna because she says it like it is.
And she did not like that Sabrina Carpenter's
team thought they were better than her.
Not to reply to Madonna.
You know, you got to check yourself.
And like now Sabrina's kind of like,
damn it, like my team looks
so bad because of this.
I love working here because you are so professional,
and in this day and age it's really hard
to find professional people to work with. Amen. Amen.
She's like, please don't cut me out
of a bunch of deals that I'm trying to get.
Like, Madonna.
But Madonna and Sabrina look eerily very similar.
I mean, Madonna's looking really young.
Like, you can compare her to Sabrina Carpenter.
A lot of people, but I respond faster,
so direct line to me is always the best way to get in contact.
This person writes, they're such sister-coded.
I mean, I'm sure that Madonna would love to hear
that, right? She probably thinks that she
and Sabrina look like twins. Oh, Madonna,
you're really washed out.
Not even her team wanted to reach back. Madonna said five days.
I'll just DM her myself. And wow, mother.
Speaking of celebrities and who everyone
was waiting for, we need to talk about Miss Taylor Swift.
She had a big night and I was wondering where is she
because most of the time when Taylor Swift is at these award shows,
they show her on the screen the entire time,
but she was not there until like halfway through the show,
right before she was about to be summoned on stage.
This person shared a clip of Taylor Swift entering during
a commercial break, stopping to say hi to some fans along the way.
And the fan was Madonna.
I'm just kidding.
This is not supposed to be a Madonna hit piece, okay?
Congratulations to Madonna.
She won a bunch of awards, and she's still killing it at 68.
I'm excited to see it because, you know,
Taylor Swift is going to be there one day.
But I thought that Taylor Swift looked great.
She's getting so much hate right now because of her new album.
I mean, her, like, deluxe album release, which, honestly, there's,
like, one song that's decent, maybe two, but it's pretty rough.
The lyrics are elementary as well,
but she was actually honored by her friend, Dakota
Johnson, who appeared in her music video
for her new song, Patient Zero.
I thought the Dakota looked great.
You know,
You know, lately she's been looking a little bit drained,
I think, because of her new boyfriend.
He's really like sucking the energy and the life out of her.
This person writes, Dakota's dress is so pretty.
I love the shimmery sparkle of it all.
Is Dakota Johnson really dating MGK?
Oh.
Wait until you get a load of this one.
Yes, she is.
And I feel like it's starting to affect her.
She seems like she's kind of lost her spark, her sparkle, if you will.
And I do have a video that I've made about
that and how she's starting to change and
how MGK is just a really bad boyfriend for her.
Let me know if you guys want that in the comments below.
But this person writes, we were forced to watch
a 10 minute monologue about how genius
Taylor Swift is.
And that's exactly what happened.
Taylor Swift accepted her award.
Then they, or no, actually before she accepted their,
her award, they played like a seven
minute long video.
about how she's a mastermind
when it comes to music videos then she came up
and then she gave her speech
then they played her music video honestly it's
like the VMA it should be the TMAs
at this point it's all about Taylor Swift
Oh, I love it.
So good.
Oh, yes.
Love, love, love.
Thank you.
Taylor, finish the lyric.
It must be hot in here.
I don't know about you.
But here's a sweet clip of Taylor Swift
and Dakota Johnson walking off stage after she got her award.
Now, Taylor's actually the one who introduced Dakota to MGK.
So when you guys see how hot of a mess
that relationship is, you know who to blame.
Now, let's get into some of the fashion.
I mean, I feel like there were more former Love Island
stars there than there were actual celebrities.
Here is Orlandria looking great.
Again, no music.
This person raves, bro.
This is a Getty.
She looks so good.
Orlandria bringing the heat to the VMAs.
And ladies and gentlemen, a true fashionista, Orlandria, everybody.
I thought that Bebe Rexha looked great.
Her figure looks great.
She's always kind of battling with body positivity.
And I think this is pretty positive.
Looking great, Bebe.
Here is Lisa.
She wore a very large red coat.
Kind of reminds me of like wintertime.
Like I truly don't understand why she wore this.
I mean, we're in LA.
It's very hot.
It was so hot today.
I was in my pool.
I was in my pool in my underwear, actually.
Hmm, it's sad to see, but I got home
from the gym and I was just way too hot.
Also, her outfit reminds me of this, and I'm kind of triggered.
If you know, you know.
Lisa Rinna was there.
Ooh, this is a spooky picture.
We can do better.
Oh, okay, I guess it's just what we're working with.
Okay, Lisa, good to see you.
This person writes, I can't believe they still have these.
When was the last time anyone watched a video,
let alone MTV airing one?
Another person writes, terrible dress.
Is there anything that Lisa won't go to?
Honestly, I don't know.
I feel like whenever I get married one day,
I'll invite her to my wedding because she
might just show up.
Here's Charli XCX looking very fierce,
looking very chic, look like her bloomers may be about
to slide off her, but still very chic.
Love the hair.
This person writes, why is the hair always so boring?
She knew to look a mess so that Taylor can outmug.
Oh, Charli, you're so kind.
This person writes, she looks amazing.
I'm screaming.
Go girl, give us nothing.
She just had some coke before going to the Emmys.
I hate to say it, but she served.
So obviously everyone has some mixed feelings about this.
this in the comment section
but i really do like charlie xcx i feel like she can really party
and you know she's got a great performance
but um you know who i'm about to go see live is actually
zara larson really excited to go see
her another love island star anaya looking great but again
no music and the thing is i'm down
for these love island people to like start joining it
just start putting out music
I want all the reality stars
just to come out with a little album
after they win their shows.
Now, I did not know who this was,
but doesn't this look like Britney Spears?
If they don't cast her in the Britney Spears biopic,
I mean, she looks almost identical in the face.
I mean, couldn't you guys agree?
Now, her name is Savannah Diemers.
Again, I don't know who she is,
but she just looks so much like Britney Spears to me.
I was a little gooped.
I was a little gagged.
I thought it was Britney Spears with black hair
and maybe a facelift.
PinkPantheress was there,
and I love PinkPantheress because she is so real.
I feel like if I were at an award show,
I would be just like her, just kind of like,
you know, a side smile in my way through it.
Although the side smile would have
been useful during this little camera shot.
It was during one of Madonna's really boring speeches.
They got a shot of PinkPantheress looking really unamused.
And there's a lot of people trying to drag her online over this.
She had no idea the camera was going to pan to her.
She's just chilling.
That is the truth.
This person writes, Dear PinkPantheress,
after that eye-rolling during Madonna's speech,
not only are you done for me, but karma
will make sure to get a sample
of your career will be short-lived.
People are, like, taking this
very burstly. In the comments below,
I don't think the PinkPantheress is trying to shade
Madonna, though the finger,
like the this.
Is kind of shady, you know what I mean?
This person writes to everyone saying she gave a nasty look.
This is literally her resting face.
You are doing the most, OMG.
And you know what?
PinkPantheress is just trying to make it through.
I feel like through the red carpet,
through the award show, just try to be like, you know,
she's such a, I think she's a people's princess.
She's, you know, thinking exactly what we're thinking.
And she's probably just like uncomfortable
in these situations because she's still a
pretty new artist.
Though I was a little bit disappointed to see
that she won nothing because she's always
just sitting there.
Like, bored.
And she's always so excited to go in, and she wins nothing.
She needs some recognition.
You're making your feature acting debut soon
in the Daniels film with Matt Damon, right?
And Sandra Oh?
Yes.
Any nerves?
How did you know that?
Because we're ET, baby.
We did our research.
Wait, did you prepare, like, for each person?
Yes.
So when they come up?
Oh, my God.
It's for you.
I mean, are you so excited?
Are you nervous?
I am so excited.
I'm nervous.
You know, I'm nervous.
Definitely my diction with the American accent.
Are you doing an American accent?
Oh, no, I'm not.
No, I don't know.
You know, maybe I am.
Maybe I'm not.
I don't really know these days.
But you're acting.
Yeah, I've been trying.
I love it.
Yeah, it's very cool.
Here is JoJo. She was looking so great.
I feel like the music industry definitely robbed her.
Like, why isn't she a huge star?
This person writes, yes, Jo. I'd ask her out,
but it's just a little too late. A little too late.
Like, why didn't she not perform?
Who is JoJo this person writes? I guess that's why.
She absolutely slays. We saw Slater there.
I thought she looked really great.
She's having a really big year. We love Slater on this channel.
I was actually asked by Variety about her feelings on Taylor Swift.
And if she would want to collaborate with Taylor Swift or Madonna,
there's really no right answer in this question
because like the Taylor Swift
fans are going to come and eat you alive.
So she kind of gave like a bogus answer with a safe answer and I can
appreciate it because you know,
the PR training is kicking in.
You don't want to piss off the Swifties,
but you also don't want to disrespect Madonna
because she holds a grudge.
If you could collaborate with someone right now.
And they would say yes, who is that?
I always, I'm a bad person to ask this question.
I'm not a collaborator.
Probably no one. I just, I don't know.
I'm really shy. I'm really shy
about collaborating.
I don't want to let anyone down.
You know?
Okay, today though, if they said you have to
go on stage and perform with Madonna
or Taylor Swift, who would it be?
And the comments
are calling him out.
He's so annoying, trying to be messy.
Honestly, being shy doesn't make the talent any less powerful.
Y'all hating on the interviewer,
but isn't this what y'all meant by people being messy?
Like, oh gee, it's not that serious.
I did see that there was a moment where Slater spoke to,
what is her name again?
I get confused between the Ella Langley's,
the Stella Lefty's, yeah, Stella Leftley.
Like, why do those two names sound so familiar?
The Ella's, the Angling's, but she was speaking to,
like, again, Stella Lefty.
There's a little, like, behind-the-scenes moment.
I wonder what they were talking about.
I mean, I don't know if I'd have anything to say to Stella.
This person raged Slater doing charity work,
Slater just being nice, and if you listen closely,
you can hear Slater saying, I ended you.
Back to the looks, one of the Bailey sisters were there,
she looked great. It seems like they're really trying
to break out of their shells,
and it's been so difficult because they signed to Beyonce's label,
and Beyonce doesn't want them
to succeed because she's threatened by them,
which is why she signed them so she could trap them.
If you guys want a video about that, let me know in the comments below.
Sombra was really trying to pull
his little rock star moment. You guys know that guy,
that um pretty much replaced like Ozzy Osbourne what's
his name young young blood young right
Youngblood, he has this kind of look
and Youngblood can really pull it off but like Sombra just
looked like he was kind of cosplaying he has like
this belt buckle that just says sex it's like
Do we even know, like, you know, Sombra's, he's a cutie.
He's just real tall and lanky, and I just don't know.
He's still, like, 19 years old.
Has he even done it yet?
A mess, this person writes.
Holy rock star, this comment reads.
This man has the sex appeal of a bamboo stick.
Send him back.
This is not the serve he thought it was.
And a belt that says something that he never gets, question mark?
This person writes, simply, a mess.
Can he un-arrive?
You know, it's bad when the fans are asking you
to just go back into the car and go home.
Just.
Turn it around.
This person writes, I miss
when men used to turn up in tuxedo suits to events.
Now, that girl named Lauren,
who used to be a part of Fifth Harmony, she is also there
in attendance.
There were some pictures of her, like, touching
her stomach, and I think that, like, people
thought she was pregnant, but she's not pregnant.
Leave her alone.
This person writes, she's goddamn old Mariah.
You know what?
Another person writes, oh, congratulations.
I had no idea she was pregnant.
You guys are so hateful.
Like, this is why, like, Bebe Rexha is, like...
I was like, to give speeches on TikTok because of this.
I actually really enjoyed Troye Sivan's outfit.
I feel like it was upscale.
You know, gay men, they never know what to wear to these award shows.
Do they wear skirts? Do they wear dresses?
And I feel like this was a great mix of like just high fashion
and then something still kind of proper for the event.
And people were even referencing that he pulled it off
of a female line off the runway,
added pants to it, which I think really helped.
Here's Alex Warren.
He looks like he's literally a football high school coach.
Right? Like, dressed up for the event.
Maybe this is his graduation fit.
This person writes, I thought that he died.
Another person added, boring.
Can he un-arrive? Not another un-arrivable.
Here is Paris Hilton and her sister, Nikki Hilton, hanging out.
You know, Paris has been really trying
to break it into the music scene,
and she's just kind of been floating through it.
And I can appreciate that. At least she's consistent.
Here is Gunna. I actually really love the color of the suit.
The brown, like, warm caramel kind of color.
Another person writes, and when's he gonna leave?
My GOAT omg he looks so fresh and hot.
So many mixed reactions at this award show.
It's like definitely like none of the favorites
were there. Like Olivia Rodrigo,
no Lady Gaga, nobody like that except for Taylor Swift.
And speaking of her outfit,
it actually was very cute I guess?
Classy? Like what would you call this?
Kind of basic, kind of reminds me of like what
my manager would wear at my like government
winter ball, like a little dress up moment.
It kind of reminds me of like the new album,
a cover that she had released
and the artwork that's going with it. It's very
like office attire, like dressed up office attire.
This person writes, wait,
the haircut really took 10 years off her look.
She looks so elegant. Oh, she's pregnant with
With TS-13, I can feel it.
Goddess of love, Venus Aphrodite, I love you, Miss Swift.
Who is her stylist?
They always set her up.
She looks like a hot mess, and she can never serve.
Her music is bad, and even her looks go home.
She looks incredible in that dress, perfect for her.
That may be one of my favorite dresses she's ever worn, stunning.
And finally, I guarantee that that's part of her wedding dress.
You heard it here first.
But I hope you guys enjoyed this video about the VMAs.
Let me know if you guys tuned in below,
or if you're just tuning in for me.
Thank you so much for watching.
I will see you in a new one soon.
Bye, guys.
