So in all honesty, I just came back from seeing New Moon (insert judgment here) and came back to the apartment only to be told by Kim to turn on ABC and start watching the AMAs.
Anyone else a little bit nonplussed by this whole "big" show?
Number one.
Dear Lady Gaga,
WEAR SOME PANTS.
Love,
Me.
I understand that you don't like them.
But I've seen enough of your ass and your cooch in pictures and performances to last me a lifetime.
I feel like I know you.
In the biblical sense.
Number two.
Way to perform in a contained space with large open flames and smoke everywhere.
I completely thought a Houdini was going to happen and she was not going to make it out alive.
Also. I get the point. You like breaking bottles. And playing the piano with glass on it.
Number three.
J-Lo?
Huh?
The year 2000 called.
They want their talent back.
That can segway into number four, which is...Eminem.
Heyoh.
When did he make a large impact within the past few years?
Answer...besides his ginormous weight gain (and apparently loss) and failed comeback/new cd...not much.
Who hired him?
Also. This doesn't qualify as a number five because it doesn't have anything directly to do with the AMAs themselves...but...
Nutella commercials are a tad bit ridiculous and epic-ly false.
Hey! Mom on the TV!
Nutella does NOT make your kids eat healthy things and is not healthy in itself!!
You load on a sugar infused choco spread on toast.
AKA sugar, and carbs.
Two things that should not really be fed to kids.
Whatever happened to apples and peanut butter?
I've heard of false advertising before, but that's just stupid.
Back to the actual music part.
Number five.
Whitney Houston can also go back to the year 2000.
...
(fast foward to the point where I kind of started watching again after having stopped to play Bejeweled for a period of time)
Finally, number 6.
Did Taylor Swift really just win Artist of the Year?
Did I really just throw up all over my computer desk?
Answers...yes, and no.
Although I was close to it.
Her talent is nothing compared to those that she was up against.
She sings sappy little ditties about love that tweens just go CRAZY for and all of a sudden she's the most successful/talented artist of the YEAR?
False.
She also strikes me as creepy looking.
She has the most squinty eyes I've ever seen.
Squinty eyes that makes me not want to trust her squinty face and therefore squinty soul.
Also. People. I've loved KOL since I heard their song "Molly's Chambers" on a VW commercial in 2005.
They were completely underrated for years here in the US (kudos to the UK for picking up on them)
Why can't we capture more artists like that, and give them the credit they deserve?
...
I genuinely never turn to the television anymore to find new music, which makes me sad.
Even MTV should just be called SRSTV now (ShittyRealityShowsTV).
Besides playing "indie" and "unknown" artists on some of their shitty "reality" shows (reality is also a relative term here, because let's be honest...we know that they're all scripted) have you ever seen a program on MTV anymore that's dedicated to actual music?
Answer...no. It's all about crazy parents and slutty children and people in the world with no morals in general.
...
Henceforth...I guess the point of this blog is to say that I'm pretty upset by the musical world in general now a days.
But I have faith.
I also have blast making fun of it.
Love always,
MaryEllen
