    I liked Pink the most, for many, many reasons. She was a class act!

  2. wow

    nicki’s freedom performance was actually really good, but it was a bit weird that she just sat there for the most part

  3. xsushi

    P!nk was hands down the best! Above and beyond everyone else.

    Chris Brown was the pathetic low point.

  4. Rempo

    Nicki Minaj was PATHETIC

  5. George

    The music was way too overpowering on Carrie’s song.

  6. ygg

    PINK was AWSOME!! Loved her anyway – but her performance just left me speachless!!

  9. Scott

    Carrie, and Gwen with their flowing white hair and black outfits were totally awesome. Carly Rae needs to watch how Gwen and Carrie and take some cues.
