Oh MTV VMAs, you toy with my emotions! One minute I'm in awe of the Michael Jackson tribute, next I'm loving Lady Gaga and her handsome date—Kermit the frog, the next minute I'm stoked on Katy Perry channeling her inner Freddie Mercury (Queen, anyone?), and then I found myself wagging my finger at my TV all like: "Oh no you didn't, Kanye!"
But in all seriousness, let's talk about my favorite performance of the night—a creative and jaw-dropping show from our friend Pink! If you missed out, most of her performance was done off the stage and up in the air for her take on a circus trapeze act while singing her hit song "Sober."

Once penning a letter to Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley in support of an elephant-protection ordinance that would eliminate the use of elephants in Chicago's circuses by banning the use of bullhooks and electric prods, there was really no doubt in my mind that Pink's circus performance would be free of animals. Kudos, Pink!
What did you think of the VMAs?

I watched that. It was AMAZING. Taylor rocked, and Kanye SUCKED. But it was nice of Beyonce to let Taylor have her moment.
Also, what was up with Lady Ga Ga's outfits?! I mean, you can be stylish and crazy, but she's going past all that....
PETA RULES.
Posted by: Lina at September 14, 2009 5:28 PMKanye was an effing bully to poor Taylor! Im not even a huge fan of her music but she seems so nice, genuine, humble, talented, and just plain sweet. He stole her moment and got a lot of press. I hope everyone boycotts his shit seriously! That just made me angry:::the look on her face. Beyonce is very classy and it was very sweet what she did.
Pink's not so happy either-
anyone see her on the today show?
I'm still trying to figure out what the hell Lady Gaga was wearing.
Posted by: Karen at September 14, 2009 8:15 PMI think Kanye is a jerk and Taylor deserved that award. Pink's performance was awesome and so was Lady GaGa's (even though her many weird wardrobe changes were a bit questionable).
Posted by: Marcade at September 14, 2009 8:22 PMI don't think this has much to do with animal rights.
Pink is a vegetarian I think, but still. Let's focus more on the real issues.
Janet Jackson's performance for the song she did with Michael "Scream" for his album HIStory was amazing! She can still do the dance moves after all these years and all the dancers that danced to the MJ classics such as "Thriller" made me think of my theme for Halloween this year. I didn't watch anything else *cept for that and the ending when they showed the preview for the MJ documentary.*
Posted by: Paige at September 15, 2009 9:21 AMi loved Pink's performance...and Green Day's just blew my mind away. but when i saw Lady Gaga i was like "okay..." but it was unique. Kayne was an asshole to Taylor! i don't particularly like country but he had no right to be such a jerk! Beyonce was really sweet to her.
Posted by: erika at September 15, 2009 10:08 AMPink was amazing and Taylor didn't deserve that moon man. If Beyonce won video of the year than how did she not win best female video or even best pop video. Kanye shouldn't ha ve interrupted Taylor but I still thinks she sucks and that she didn't deserve than moon man.

Kayne is a douche. and, also bummed that it didn't even show paramore. not once. they should have won best rock, not green day. I don't really like pink's Music but respect her as a person and her performance ruled!
