The world had their eyes glued on the television last night as MTV presented the 2011 Video Music Awards and you’re very own TTB blogger spent the VMA evening sitting smack dab on the stage for an unforgettable musical escapade. As the lights dimmed and highlighted Lady Gaga as her intoxicated alter ego, Jo Calderone, it was clear that she was a woman who didn’t give a f*ck what the world thought of her, she was gonna rock out with her pseudo-cock out . She blew the crowd away with her rendition of ‘Yoü and I’ and Mother Monster reminded everyone that being born different is beautiful.
With explosive performances by Kanye West & Jay-Z, Chris Brown, Pitbull, Adele, and Lil Wayne it was impossible to refrain myself from dancing uncontrollably. I mean, come on, I was AT THE VMA’S! But the show stopped and the crowd went wild when Beyoncé graced the stage to perform ‘Love on Top’ from her recent album, 4. She surprised the world, and her husband Jay-Z, as she dropped the mic at the end of her performance and rubbed her growing belly. Congrats Mama B! The best part was looking over at Kid Cudi, Kanye West, and Lady Gaga jumping in excitement around Jay-Z who was smiling from ear to ear. And after seeing that she can perform whilst pregnant, there’s no doubt she can run whatever world she wants.
From fashion disasters to onstage surprises, this award show threw all the right punches to get us all stirring. “What crazy ass outfit is Lady Gaga going to wear?” “Who’s night is Kanye West going to ruin tonight? “Why does Katy Perry have a block of cheese on her head?!” and the all important, “Are Jay-Z and Beyoncé looking for a nanny for their soon-to-be ridiculously talented child?”
MTV knows how to get fans giddy and one thing’s for sure, the celebs brought both style and funk to the red carpet and we are just oozing in awe at the night’s best dressed (and worst dressed). Check out the show stoppers below:
