I'm excited. It's marked the official end of Summer as long as I can remember. Nicki Minaj is performing to kick off the show so looking forward to that.

I always feel so out of touch when these come up and I'm only 19. I want more metal.

I think this is where I get off the pop culture train, because I barely know who these people are.

The VMA's are and probably always have been more scripted than the WWE. They're too busy trying to have a Wrestlemania "OMG did you see that on the VMA's!? LOL WTF!? " moment than anything else.
Take a shot every time that they show Taylor Swift. You'll be Scott Hall drunk within 5 minutes.

The VMA's haven't mattered since Chris Rock hosted.If I watch nowadays, it'll just annoy me.Though, I read that Demi Lovato is performing, so I may look up a clip of that later.

I just read that it's going to be on a delay, in case Miley Cyrus does something too inappropriate.

That's kind of silly considering she was on it last year, and nothing happened right?

What else can she do other than take a giant shit and throw it at the audience?

I love the VMAs and watch every year. 2011 and 2013 were both easily among the best years (along with 1986, 1997 and 1999) and so I have hope tonight will be great.
It's an important show too as it's not just MTV's President's final VMAs, but his final event for the network, so expect all of the stops to be pulled out.
Miley is hosting, it's said she's been given more creative control with the show than any other host.
Kanye West is receiving the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award (MTV's Lifetime Achievement equivalent) and given how the past two years' winners put on incredible career-spanning performances (Timberlake in '13, Beyonce in '14) Kanye could do something pretty great.
Last year's and 2012's sucked, I'm not denying that, but given the perfect storm of circumstances, this could be one for the ages.

And now to get the usual posts out of the way, pop music sucks, pop culture sucks, I hate mainstream things, I don't know who modern musicians are so they're unimportant, yadda yadda, the pre-show starts in a hour.

So logically, wouldn't Kanye have to interrupt himself and give his award to Beyonce?

Obviously everything's subjective, but I do wish more music was represented here. It leans towards mostly pop and hip hop, there's plenty of great rock stuff out there...Oh well, it's all good.
