Austin Mawhothefuckcares (aka Bieber’s Replacement)…He dances
better than Bieber and he’s cuter too, but his vocal is the same level of
unremarkable. I see it for him as long as he keeps his pants pulled up and
Justin continues to act like a coon.
Ariana Grande…She’s a real life Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Her whistle
register is reminiscent of Mariah--you know, back when she still sang live.
Standout fashion note: Selena Gomez’s half matron, half sex kitten
look was incredible. The girl is definitely coming for Rihanna’s red carpet
throne.

On to the main show...
Gaga’s opener…First of all, when she came on to the screen, it looked like a close up of Humpty Dumpty, but her vocals were on as usual.

post-zoom out…
The geometric ensemble was…well...it was...there. I’m sure all the theatre and symbolism was deep, but
I still found her smiling with a booing track in the background a bit
unnerving.
Moreover, some of her dancers proved that onesies are not for
everyone (mainly the ones with ball sacks and bellies). Nevertheless, the
costume changes were impressive going from MC Hammer with a skirt to a mermaid
stripper...
Robin Thicke and Miley Cyrus…These two white folks who want so badly to
be black sprinkled their stale ratchetness all over the stage…well, mostly
just her, but that suit Robin was wearing was just as tacky as Miley’s foam
finger masturbation.
I don’t know if I see it for Miss Cyrus anymore, but this could have been prevented--remember
when she did that Billy Idol cover at VH1 Divas?
Is it too late for her to go back in that direction?

The best parts of her performance were all the cutaways to confused
and unimpressed spectators.
2 Chainz and Kendrick Lamar…when 2 Chainz appeared with that
black college dance team, that whole stage show turned around (or turned up, as
Kevin Hart would say when he can’t land a joke). I thought he and Kendrick gave the most
Brooklyn-worthy performance.
Iggy Azalea and Lil Kim present and award...I’ve seen Iggy’s dress
on the runway before and it looked fab on her, but Lil’ Kim looked a surgical
hot mess per usual.

Kevin Hart…I see why some people don’t find him funny. His presence
was irrelevant.
Jared Leto...all he did was introduce Kanye, but I just wanted him somewhere on my blog.

YEEZUS...First of all, when will these award show producers learn
that censorship totally ruins the viewing experience?
I wish he did “New Slaves” or “Black Skinhead” because I
feel like those songs have more performance quality to them, but his appearance
was visually memorable nonetheless.

Then Taylor Swift won something for being Taylor Swift and threw some cheesy shade to Harry Styles…and then Macklemore, Ryan Lewis and a very fat white girl won something for singing about gay people.
Justin Timberlake Vanguard Concert…Here’s literally all my
thoughts on Mr. Timberlake: I have never lived for him; I kind of miss his curls; I see him as a classier version of Robin Thicke (which isn’t saying very
much); and I still give him side eye for what he did to Janet.
When he finally hit the stage he was giving me all the slick
choreo I expected—the part where he grabbed the mic that shot up from the ground
during “Cry Me a River” made him the slickest mutherfucker in the world.
…20 minutes later, four lesser bitches join him on stage for
about 2 seconds:
JC looked alright because he has been relatively employed…
Joey is still the fat one…
Lance looked good because gays are always better groomed than straight men…
Chris looked a fucking mess.
Their appearance was like Kelly and Michelle popping up at the Beyoncé Bowl: it was cute, but we all know it was all about Beyoncé.
Quick note on A$ap Rocky and that gay basketball player: I’m just gonna say that discriminating against
someone for being gay is NOT the same thing as discriminating against someone’s
skin color. It’s just not. Moving on.
Macklemore and Ryan Lewis plus that fat white girl…Jennifer
Hudson’s appearance was the best thing about that performance. I wish she went
a little more church, but it was still an upgrade.
I thought it was curious how Austin MahowDidHeEvenWinOverIggy won an
award and basically said a speech Justin Bieber already said at one point or
another…the kid is a quick study.
T-Boz and Chilli’s appearance gave me so much ‘90s life...

Jumpsuits, platforms and crop tops, oh my! (via Tumblr) |
Drake…His was very, very well manicured as usual and his
hand choreography was on point as well as the stage production. I don’t
even care for "Started From the Bottom", but the performance was actually really good.
Bruno Mars…He gave me all the intense, sexual life I needed,
complete with a King Kong graphic. The guy is on the way to legend status based
on pelvic thrusts alone. (Honestly, that was kind of the performance of the
night and it should have closed the show.)
Katy Perry’s Closer…So I just listened to “Roar” and I dig
it; it definitely made a better first impression than "Applause"...but her
performance was not a finale performance.
Additionally, I need her stylist to take a leave of absence
and get their shit together because the costuming could have been better and she
had a grill in earlier along with a stupid-looking Versace for H&M dress...
However, I will say that her performance was very athletic and I’m sure most people can’t sing a live note after jumping rope.
…but Gaga still shat on her.
