Eminem feat. Rihanna - "Not Afraid" and "Love the Way You Lie"
Em is really on top of his game right now! He sounded great, and loved the backing orchestra/drum line he had...probably should have closed the show instead of opening! Rihanna actually sounded good too (normally not a fan of her live) and love the red hair! Everyone else at the VMAs had better do it big, they sure set the bar high!!
Justin Bieber - "Baby" and "Somebody to Love"
He sounds WAY too good to be live...and they are showing NO up closes until he's talking...and cool you can play the drums, thats great. Performance had lots of energy, just would have made it that much better had he not been lip synching!
Usher - "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love" and "OMG"
It's the return of Usher tonight too!! Loved the sliding down the ramps! Definitely live, but some heavy backing tracks!! And half the time he wasn't even attempting to sing, just dance...but that was really fine with me, because it was a great performance!
Florence + The Machine - "Dog Days Are Over"
I am apparently the only person who has never heard this song/seen the video, but I have heard of her and have some of her other songs. Damn the girl has some lungs on her, definitely the best live sounding act of the night! She looked like she was having a good time too!!
N.E.R.D. and Ciara - "Hot and Fun"
You know I love me some N.E.R.D. and this performance was very random....was it an advertisement? Can i get a full performance cuz i love them!!
Taylor Swift - some sappy song she wrote about last years vmas...
BLEH. I really can't stand Taylor Swift, lol. She was definitely all live, but she sounds bad, and she has a lot of trouble hitting some notes. Her hair is actually different for once so she gets credit for that but Kanye should have performed with her, would have been much better!!
Drake feat. Mary J. Blige and Swizz Beatz - "Fancy"
Liked the song, and he did a great job for his first time!! It's hard to stand out against MJ too but he did pretty great, definitely reminds me of Eminem!!
B.O.B. feat. Paramore and Bruno Mars - "Nothin' on You" and "Airplanes" and then Paramore "Only Exception"
GOD I HATE AIRPLANES!! The first thing I said when they announced this was GREAT I hate this song!!! And I really dont' like Paramore. It stems back to them opening for No Doubt and just ugh...Luckily I really like B.O.B. and Bruno Mars sounded great, so not completely ruined....
Linkin Park - "The Catalyst"
Damn one of the best performances wasn't even at the VMAs!! Love this song, love them and they sounded great!
Kanye West - "Runaway"
Nothing to save. I love Kanye and that is that. Can't wait for the new cd :) I don't even care about the haters, you can't deny that he is amazingly talented!!

grammys 2010
*gaga and elton john - while it wasn't as crazy as i was hoping, it was just amazing. her and elton just rocked it out. and can we talk about that outfit? not only were those shoes insane (how was she dancing in them?), but that leotard was SO high!! i need to hire her bikini waxer!!
song of the year - "single ladies" by beyonce...that was a damn tough category!! kings of leon and lady gaga should have won as well!!
*green day and the cast of american idiot - pretty damn interesting!! i'm a big green day fan in general, even though i know a lot of people really hate them. but green day + big anthem + tons of back up singers? pretty fantastic, gave me a few chills! i'm kinda interested to check this out!
country album of the year - taylor swift, fearless. of course she was going to win. i'm really starting to be very over her, but she did deserve this award, i suppose!
*beyonce - i really didn't get her performance...obviously she can SING, and obvi she can DANCE...yet she picked one of her older, not as popular songs, and added in some alanis? i just didn't really get it. i think she could have killed it WAY more than she did. also, what were with the guys in black army gear?
*pink - they kept saying her high flying act, and i thought for sure it was going to be the trapeze again...i'm glad it wasn't...the song was very pretty, and i didn't mind the crazy high flying thing...it was actually pretty sweet when she started doing all kinds of crazy acrobatic things...expce ti feel bad for all those people who were getting soaked!! like, that was seriously impressive!! everyone there looked kinda in awe too!!
best new artist - zac brown band. i don't have much of an opinion about this, because i think that it should absolutely 100% go to gaga, and she couldn't be nominated!! my vote would have been tings tings or mgmt...but i kinda thought the zac brown band would get it. good for them, even though i hate country!!
*black eyed peas - i loooooooooove the song "imma be". like, LOVE IT. i wasn't that impressed with that part, i though it could have been a bit more wild and fun, but still was pretty great for the song along. they went into "i gotta feeling" just as the song was getting good, but its ok, this was their big hit this year. i dunno how you can listen to that song and not just feel good about everything.
*lady antebellum - god i wish i had more to say, haha. i mean its country. it was good, thats all i got.
best comedy album - stephen colbert "the greatest christmas of all" - obvi this award was only on the awards show so stephen colbert could give a funny speech, which wasn't even that funny. kinda a waste of time on the show, just sayin.
record of the year - kings of leon "use somebody" they were def. fun in their acceptance speech, and the totally deserved this one.
****I LOVE ROBERT DOWNEY JR. SO MUCH****
*jamie foxx and t-pain - fun. i hate auto-tune just as much as jay-z (ps did you see him bobbing his head and smiling? what a hypocrite!) but this song is friggin catchy!! and how did i know the c-walkin opera director would be t-pain, haha. but he was SO not live. and then some chubby black girl dancing? and slash? what in gods name was going on??? what a freak show that quickly turned into!! but at least jamie apologized to jay-z for the autotune, haha.
**ke$ha has some catchy tunes, but god damn that girl looks like a train wreck. wow.**
best rock album - green day "21st century breakdown". i was shocked by this, thought for sure it would go to anyone else, but i'm very glad they won!
*zac brown band - i think i like these guys! didn't get the god bless america at the beginning, but they sound great. and they are like the country version of dave matthews, haha. very fun. and pretty b.a. at the end!
*taylor swift - ya i get it, she's cute, she's a good singer, she writes all her own songs...i'm just kinda over her, i'm sorry :( she didn't really sound super amazing either...but then her and stevie nicks were fun. but like i said, not really that impressed.
*michael jackson tribute - first of all, kinda pissed i have no 3d glasses. ugh. so i'm not actually WATCHING it, cuz it hurts my eyes. but i love me some smokey robinson. so that was pretty sweet. kinda heartbreaking, but how fantastic of paris and prince getting up and talking like that. so friggin cute.
*bon jovi - i just love me some bon jovi. that is all. thank god they picked livin' on a prayer. just so good.
best rap/sung collaberation - "run this town" by jay-z, kanye, and rihanna. boo kanye for not being there! i kinda wanted lonely island to win, but this one was a no brainer!
*mary j/andrea bocelli - like this wasn't a great song as it was, then you had to go and have these 2 sing it...pretty damn fantastic. these 2 could sing the alphabet and i would be in awe!
*dave matthews band - may be by fave performance of the night!! very emotional and lots of energy. love it. i'm sorry for saying they are overrated, haha
best female pop vocal - beyonce "halo", duh.
*maxwell - he's so hot, and can sing so fantastically. plus roberta flack! yes please! definitely the classiest performance of the night!
*drake/eminem/lil wayne/travis barker - all this one needed was kanye :( first of all tarantino's intro was ridic, lol. didn't get most of lil wayne's performance cuz it was bleeped, lol. same w/eminem actually. but the whole thing was pretty badass, especially eminem.
album of the year - damn. taylor swift again. that pisses me off.
anyways, did i miss some awards or something? they only presented like 7 awards during the show? wtf. anyways, the lady was robbed, i am angry, and i'm going to bed. night music world :)
