While we wait for comments to get fixed, those of you who would like to comment on Mike’s fine liveblogging of the night can chat here, at least until we hit 100 posts, at which point I guess we’ll go into thread No. 3? I dunno, I’m still sort of experiencing sunstroke from being out in the heat for three hours with no water and not all very many interviews.

“Oh, and TOTAL HOOKUP CITY.”
The world has become a Mr. Show episode.
Wow, The Cool Kids on MTV. Finally, something GOOD.
Oh, nm, it was a Mountain Dew commercial. Fack.
Maggie is not taking the news of TAG Records well. She is calling for a cleansing fire.
Well, I just had the first “What am I doing with my life??” moment of the evening.
If anything could give us all pause to ask that question, the VMA’s would be it.
Wait really the opening segment was with JONAH HILL???
And Rihanna stole Leona Lewis’ cake-dress from the Olympics closing ceremony!
OK seriously I don’t know how much more of this I can take. Perhaps I should just YouTube the highlights.
@Maura Johnston: Which was stolen from Grace Jones!
Well, now I know why I got this e-mail:
I wonder how dude feels about the Jonas Brothers dis?
Also, Kate, if you’re out there, I’m remembering your Diet Coke and red wine cocktail!
“I want to give it up for the ladies!”
–cut to Zac Efron.
OK that was awesome.
You know what was gratifying? Tiny Leona Lewis performance. Clive Davis, you have no power here! (Well, not MUCH power here. Temporarily so, perhaps.)
Demi Moore’s resemblance to Courteney Cox makes me think of people who didn’t show up on the red carpet as advertised:
- Courtney Love
- Fall Out Boy
- the Jonas Brothers
- T.I.
- Taylor Swift (but she was busy)
- Miley Cyrus
OH and I saw Seth Green in person and he is SO TINY YOU GUYS.
Katy Perry cannot fucking sing for her life. Worst. Ever.
Miley and Taylor showed up on the pre-show thing, if not on the red carpet itself.
I could’ve sworn I saw an internet ad for the 2008 VMAs with Amy Whitehouse, believe it or not.
Wait, really? They just bleeped out THE WORD PENIS? On a channel that made people EAT PIG’S VAGINA????
@Dickdogfood: If they didn’t make it to me, they didn’t count :P
Ne-Yo’s “A Milli” freestyle > anything involving Leona Lewis
Sigh.
I’m so bummed out you guys.
It’s OK. (What is the emoticon for hug?)
@Dickdogfood: I do not know.
I do know that Slash did not say “fuckin’… oops” when he bluffed the teleprompter just now.
@Maura Johnston: Were you just REMEMBERING calimocho or were you consuming it? I hope the latter, for your sake.
