Pre-show starts in a few minutes...
Well, they got Fergie out of the way. Is that song actually a hit?
sure, why not.
hi mts.
I hear Axl is going to show up, supposedly.
Man, that new My Chemical Romance song was boring. MCR singer dude’s new haircut makes him look like Brian Dennehy. And they had A CHILDREN’S CHOIR DRESSED LIKE SKELETONS.
i am starting to doze off during this.
Show starts proper in a few minutes. Xtina’s much mailgned “blaccent” has finally disappeared completely. Not a trace. Or maybe it’s been gone for a while, it’s been a while since I’ve seen an interview with her.
*maligned, haha.
OMG YACHT ROCK DUDES
meanwhile, john cale sits at home eating frosting and the VMAs on tv, bitterly.
lil’ kim’s out of jail.
First award goes to James Blunt. Delete MTV.
i think lil kim is drunk. and did her boobs get bigger?
why does john norris still exist?
i think kim just put on a lil weight in jail.
UGH MY HUMPS JUST WON
I like Fergie’s headband tho. James Cunt didn’t have one like that.
OK MY HUMPS JUST WON. LET’S JUST GIVE AWARDS TO THE ABSOLUTE WORST SONGS OF THE PAST YEAR.
x-post
I keep hearing some stage manager talking! Something about Jennifer Lopez...
“Kelly Clarkson couldn’t be here tonight, she has a massive hangover from partying with Metal Skool.”
dude. why didn’t madonner win? that’s kinda weird.
ewww sarah silverman. this is boring.
Hey, the Bob Dylan iPod commercial. Silverman was completely unfunny.
Please tell me Jessica Simpson ad-libbed “I can just push my tush.” Someone actually wrote that for her to say?
pink’s acceptance speech was awesome. i doubt ritchie got the diss...
haha yeah that was actually pretty funny. “I broke it!”
and the semi-disgusted look on her faced when they said her name, “oh god, I actually have to go up there.”
beyonce borrowed her wardrobe from en vogue!
and dance moves from rhythm nation!
i see everyone has given up.
All American Reject d00d was hammered. He dropped his moon man’s flag just like Pink did.
I still can’t get over Jared Leto being an emo star now. What is he, 35?
omg kanye’s looking pretty sienfeld out there
If Axl no-shows I’m gonna roffle.
I’m missing that Chinese Democracy vs. The New MBV thread on ILX Classic.

purple pants
lou reed pleas for rock and roll

aw man he was just there to introduce the killers, wtf.
i missed the six thing, what happened? somone jumped onstage like soy bomb?
also in what universe are the killers show closers? (i guess the one where P!ATD win VotY)
and his name was six—he complained that mtv never gave him a show then thanked remy ma
ha, shit they’ll probably cut that out of the replay, too.
remember one year some dude jumped up and started talking about BB King, and Snoop kept calling him nephew?
agassi once crusing is tied 5/5 4th set
bagdhdatis is serving to send it to a fifth set

I got to see Sixx on the replay! They didn’t cut him out (yet).
He actually plugged his website before the cops grabbed him:
It seems to be down at the moment, I’m sure his server was bombarded.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060901/music_nm/leisure_mtv_dc
Sixx got a mention.
ringtone of the year?!?!?!
I liked how the camera quickly pulled back so you couldn’t see him gettin tackled by the cops... the abrupt cutaway from Jack White/Billy Gibbons doin “Cheap Sunglasses” was fucking LAME. Also was Lou Reed’s gasmask stage backdrop designed by Grant Morrison? wtf
How was OK Go? I was obsessed with that treadmill video for ages.
They didn’t play, they just did a live recreation of the video while the song played over the PA. It was kind of cool for what it was, nobody tripped or anything.
Haven’t Avenged Sevenfold been a band for like 10 years now?
likewise has Panic at the Disco been around for 15 years?!? I coulda sworn they said something to that effect in their acceptance speech.
all the goth-punk-emo fashion/angular haircuts were totally ridiculous.
Shakey all those panic at the disco guys are like 15 years old!
(well, 19)
Well, they got Fergie out of the way. Is that song actually a hit?
Hahaha, I just found out that song was #1 for three weeks. WTF, America loves lil miss pisspants.

Fun with Mos Def, NYPD, and a lack of performance permits
