In all it sucked, outside of Britney finally getter hers, (although not for the videos she deserved)...think of it as a Denzel//Training Day/ Oscar sceneriooo....same thing. She should have gotten them a long time ago so. The show was missing a serious dose of Beyonce and/or Ciara hitting the stage. They would have been better than everyone who performed last night..... To break it down:
TOP 5 FAVORITE MOMENTS1. When Jordin Sparks finally leveled the playing field by calling out that host for picking on the Jonas Brothers for being virgins
2. When fanny pac won the dance off....and the boy from the group ran down the stair to give presenter Ciara his phone number......for her saying 'thankyou' as though it was a gift.

PERFORMANCES FROM BEST TO WORST (click on highlighted names to watch videos)
1.
PINK gave what PS deems the best performance of the night on her stage set. She gave the energy, attitude and movement...and vocals of a true rocker chick. This gave us the blueprint of what Rihanna is trying to sell to us and fails in comparison. Rihanna should study Pink a little more.
2.
WAYNE totally surprised me with the first part of his performance of "Misunderstood" featuring Leona Lewis (aka the Mariah wannabe). It was beautiful the way it built up and her vocals were on point for once. However, when he brought out that clown Tpain for "Get Money"...that was just a hot mess. I love Tpain but he is truly a clown.
3.
KID ROCK reminded us why he was ever hot in the first place with "All Summer Long." He brought out Wayne to help but his vocals truly impressed me. I like the song too.
4.
TI came in with "Whatever You Like" on a stage set that was just devine. I thoroughly enjoyed that part of his performance. He's one of the few rappers that actually brings something to his live show. And then he brought out Rihanna for a short snippet of their new song "Live Your Life." She looked fab in her ode to Grace Jones I presume and then so opened her mouth and I swear I thought a cat was crying outside so I closed my window. Again...no swag.
5.
KANYE did his thing. I'm not into this trend of rappers singing but he set a mood.
6.
JONAS BROS performed..this was my first time seeing them so I don't know. It seemed okay
7.
CHRISTINA offcourse always brings it vocally and the stage show was quite good. However I couldn't forgive the blatant biting of my girl Lady Gaga...from the eye makeup to the dance to even the sound of the new song. For that I just can't forgive. Real artist may bite but they make it their own...Which you've done. You were just biting this time Christina. And your azz was lip singing. I cannot believe this ish. All taht ish talk and you have resorted to lippin too now huh?

Rihanna was the first actual performance although MTV billed it as though Britney was going to perform. And the worst opening ever .... JUST NO. It was a lot of fanfare and zombies and dancers to cover up the basic fact that wellll, it sucked. THis was an epic kind of bad. It had the makings of a career defining performance but again she fell short. The whole thing was copied from the choreography to the tail on her hair...but if she had executed..it would have been good. The dancers did all the work. How can someone be doing an upbeat song and it look like paint drying? Vocals omg...can we say billy goat? I had to mute the tv. Then her movements went from being weird (which I assume was part of the act) to just stiff. She has no swagger whatsoever as a performer. Even the outfit made her shape look odd. This was a MAJOR dissapointment. Do people pay to see her perform? She can walk a mean game when she stages candids in the streets though. Can't take that from her. But after this, I'm experiencing second hand embarrassment here...Did MTV do this on purpose to show how much better Britney is?
