MTV Video Awards Tonight, 8pm, 8/30/2020

Get ready for a nonstop cringeathon with the worst ratings in the history of award shows.

Is it true Shawn Mendes will be coming out tonight?

I wonder if kanye west will show up and be his usual piece of shit self?

Performances by Grande, Peas, Doja, Weeknd (oh, dear,) and more people I’ve never heard of.

But, Gaga!

I’ll hold out for Donny and Marie and then I’m going to bed.

Will Cardi B show up and do Wet Ass Pussy?

Weirdly it was dark outside during the pre-show while it was still light in NYC.

Girlfriend’s dress looked like a wrapped tampon

Watched my favorite The Weekend do BlindedByThe Light. So happy it was first up and I didn’t have to wade through a lot of junk.

Without an audience, are you going to watch this? Seems vacant and hllow to me.

Let me get a gauge on this:

This show is just terrible.

We’re holding out for Gaga.

There’s no studio audience so all rings hollow.

I’d rather scour my kitchen sink.

My sink sparkles thanks to Keke Palmer and Miley Cyrus, thanks, girls.

[quote]Performances by Grande

Ariana or Frankie?

Maluma!

I haven't seen a white person yet.

Ariana r13

Fuck off r15. Miley is too brown for you?

She bought that color at Walgreen’s, $6.99

Mileeey Cyrusss, Bobbeeeee Brown? Billy Raaaay? Cocaine brownies? Bobby Ray?

BTS is like the first season of The Facts of Life. Do they really 7 of them?

^really need

R15 really?!

Gaga could have gone into the blah blah blah description OP.

Asian males have really been neutered

Zzzzz gaga is bland and dull to op, bunch if nobodies. The vmas peaked with the 2009 vmas.

Why do they even bother? It's not as if they actually play videos anymore.

I'm watching The Black Panther on ABC because Chadwick.

No, OP will always love and dance to Pokerface and Bad Romance, and a few others. I won't give her up.

Remember when this was a huge pop cultural event of the year, things have changed.

Truly, r27. It’s funereal, they’re playing a dirge.

This damn show is still on? They should have canceled this thing years ago.

R25 The Black Panther? Isn’t it just Black Panther?

Fuck you, R23. BTS won Best Pop video.

Gaga? She needed Ariana to get a “hit”. So tiresome and try hard. Ugly asf

r31 They're wearing makeup and it's not for tv, where did i lie?

Did california roll mean penis?

It's become so irrelevant, it's as irrelevant as the American music awards and billboard awards. The grammys are on their way out too.

All these people pushing “get out the vote.” Wouldn’t it have been better for Kammie Harris to make an appearance on here and speak to the youth directly?

Why should KH come on the show? It's better to hear from their own peers.

No one watching this is going to vote, it's mostly dumbass fans of lady gaga and BTS and from foreign countries at that.

Lady gags fan, singular. BTS has tons of fans.

This Hadid chick’s face is pulled tighter than Madonna’s.

Maluma is SEXY!!!! Gay?

With the exception of Gaga and the Weeknd, this all just feels so low rent, and such a come down from the glory days of the VMA's.

And who booked these acts? Black Eyed Peas haven't had a hit in ten years. Miley Cyrus stopped being a thing about seven or eight years ago.

Why don't they just book Toni Tennille and reunite the Starland Vocal Band while we're at it?

POP CULTURE SUCKS STD RIDDLED ASS TODAY!!

Yes but none of them have a penis R31. They are weird looking, very unattractive lesbians.

They must be struggling to get people to present at this, this Barker guy hasn't be relevant in years.

Seriously acts that don't even sing in english, surely there are relevant american acts that could have played

Remember when this was a huge deal every year?

Are we just old now, is it not as big a deal, or both?

Gaga isn’t relevant to anybody under 35. Her only hits, and they have been sparse in 10 years, are with the help of others.

This is pathetic.

R43, you did the safe thing and posted that here. Now I dare you to post what you said on Twitter, TikTok and other SM sites. Bet you won't, coward.

i guess black eyed peas got new members or i didn't know the members

Black Eyes Peas is so 20 years ago. Where is Fergie?

So was the format a success? Has MTV now created the template for how to do award shows in these COVID times?

It's almost like the DNC (or maybe they copied it? People performing on a stage in a drive-in setting with fireworks in the background or off a pier.

I'm not watching, but I'd like to point out that the fans of BTS are really vile cretins. Look at how they responded to a member of Now United congratulating them for winning Best Group.

this show was so tired they might as well have included Madame X and Janezzz...

Bad Bunny and Nicki Minaj fans are mad that Maluma won so one dug up a 2012 tweet of Maluma"s where he wrote "n*gga" and there are once again bringing up the incest rumors about he and his aunt.

[quote]Where is Fergie?

she pissed her pants again

Still stuck in 2000 and late, R50.

Gaga was pretty fantastic.

I enjoyed The Weeknd performance and the opening graphics with the paper airplane.

So, so bad. Why bother? Who would watch this, who could watch this the entire way through?

I love me some Gaga, but Ariana Grande sang circles around her. And through a mask too!

Must have been a flop to only have 61 posts.

r61 Give me a break, you thought they were actually singing with masks on?

Back when people still cared about this awards show. I'm surprised Gaga didn't dress up like Maria Antionette and held an umbrella for her number.

[quote]Where is Fergie?

She’s seeing a doctor about her lady lumps.

Why does The Weeknd always have blood and bruise makeup on his face when he's been promoting this album?

Good question

Poor GaGa. Tries SO hard to be sexy, cool and avant- garde and she’s just... not.

Gaga the winner yet again. Haters hate yet again.

She won what? A video award? Wow!!

Cue Madonna's bathroom meltdown in 3...2..

Videos seem so 20th Century! Where are the TikTok Awards?

I'm shocked Madonna fans still hate Gaga. She's now a fully fledged icon.

What makes you think you have to be a Madonna fan to dislike the phony Gagme?

Just a hunch, R74. Call it being a DLer for nearly 20 years.
