Loading ...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.

Hi everyone! Man this sucks. I have a call into our tech department.
ARRRGH. I feel for you people. ARRRGGH.
So, the West Coast broadcast is just starting!
Wait, no it isn’t! WTF
Christ, this fucking day. At least the Mets didn’t get swept.
You all tragically missed out on at least 50 Jonas Brothers related posts which reveal me to be the pedophile that I am.
And here’s Lil Wayne!
He’s wearing will.i.am’s hair though.
God I hate Kid Rock
When the comments thread died I stopped watching the VMA’s and watched the new episode of Entourage.
Now…what…the…fuck…with…kid rock…and…lil wayne
Wait, what’s up with the minute counts? Is this the influence of Los Angeles’ local news?
THAT’S THE SAME PEPSI SIGN THAT IS RIGHT NEAR MY APARTMENT
I wish MTV had had someone remake “Bad Boys” for that commercial.
@The Van Buren Boys: Me too. *rushes off to gather a bottle, gas and a tampon to make a Molotov Cocktail. I’m going to set fire to something to protest The Jonas Brothers tragic VMA loss*
I like how the aesthetic MTV’s ads is 100% ripped off from Hipster Runoff.
In all seriousness, this has been a horrible show. It hasn’t even been entertaining a trainwreck way, but really really boring.
@NeverEnough: If you’re going to set fire to something/someone, might as well make it Kid Rock. Two birds with one stone right there.
@The Van Buren Boys: Yeah. Christina Agulera (sp?) was pretty good, though. But there haven’t really been any memorable moments.
Ew, Kobe. Was LeBron not available?
@The Van Buren Boys:Consider it done. (And, really, I come from a long line of Southern white trash. I have a minimum of 4 uncles who could BE Kid Rock. I honestly don’t get the appeal).
@The Van Buren Boys: It is really bad. At one point it appeared like the ads were better than the show, but they’re redundant.
The interstitial graphics are pretty great. MORE MOONMEN FEWER SCHERZINGERS
And lo, the cycle to redemption is complete.
Ok. Officially? Fuck this. Huge setup for Britney. Goodnight.
Britney, you’re in shock? I’m speechless.
Well, it’s nice that America is ready to build back up whatever it built up and tore down. Bodes well for all those McMansion developments that aren’t sellling.
Oh Kanye, don’t sing. SAVE THAT FOR DYLAN.
I can’t believe Cisco Adler and Shwayze lied to me :(
Maybe Bob is one of the backup dancers?
Um, is this song going to go anywhere? Or is this another one of those tracks that “kills in the club”?
@Maura Johnston: Yeah but we’ll build Britney back up just to tear her back down again in a few months. Just like the eventual downward spiral of Miley Cyrus.
@Maura Johnston: Bastards!
The fireworks AND the sonic dynamics were much better at the Hollywood Bowl last night.
Seriously!?! Kanye finally gets his wish to close the show and he rolls out that pile of crap.
Did he really just say Hare Krishna?
Heh.
Good lord. That was amazingly underwhelming.
I enjoyed everyone’s comments tremendously. Good night, all!
It wasn’t funny/cool/ironic when Snoop sung, and it still isn’t when Kanye sings.
I expected better from him.
@Maura Johnston: Then again, you can’t fuck with Tchaikovsky (unless you’re the not-all-that-great soloist who played the second song, blech)
Teh. I’m glad LL has finally embraced his geighness with all the talk about lingerie.
I saw Perez Hilton close up. He was very sweaty.
Oh, Nicole Scherzinger.
*Listens to the new TV on the Radio song. Starts to feel better.*
Ah, Nicole with the plug for the label!! Work that 360 deal, lady.
@Maura Johnston: He looks like he’s dropped a huge amount of weight, though.
I wonder if I should just watch the highlights.
They actually replayed Pink throwing the VMA with the delayed glass shatter. Nice.
@loudersoft: Yes, well. He was still sweaty.
“Perez, thanks for being the only person who is willing to stand next to me while everyone heads off to the afterparty.”
@Maura Johnston: hahahahahaha
Oh great, Perez Hilton is going to cover “Get In The Ring.” GREAT.
Sway’s copter finally landed.
