Mannequin* Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Enjoyed myself watching this <3 hope you do ! Link to comment
none Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 to this day the 2000 VMAs is my all time favorite Britney performance, I don't think she ever topped that energy (imo) I still remember when it aired originally, I was mind blown Link to comment
jennyj Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Sway still works at MTV??? (lol sorry, I haven't watched MTV in ages after they focused more on trash reality shows instead of music). I wonder if Britney's gonna be at this year's VMAs? I highly doubt it unless new music is coming, but i'm sure this is just MTV using her name again. Great compilation though Link to comment
Ashwin Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hope her and Sam surprise us again. Or she can give Missy the award. Link to comment
JeNny_C Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 MTV is so desperate trying to get people to watch the crappy VMA's. Everyone knows Britney made that show and it will never be good again until someone actually puts on a descent visual performance again. There are a few descent singers and ok performances but nothing like from back in the day like Britney, Madonna or Gaga did. Like where are the theatrics? The show is just boring now and MTV knows it I really miss the old MTV showing music videos and behind the scenes. What happened? It's really sad Link to comment
vinay Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 MTV finally acknowledging Britney a little Link to comment
ILikeChillinWithYou Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Ok many thoughts, but Did they just place the 2016 VMAs Make Me performance above the 2000 VMAs Oops/Satisfaction performance? Excuse me but wut?! Funny how they cut out the acceptance speech part of 2011 VMAs Vanguard Award moment because MTV knows that making Britney praise beyonce on her moment was a tragic mess Link to comment

Excuse me but wut?! MTE I figured Slave would be #1 since most people prefer that one (not me), but Oops should have been at least #2. Even that stupid kid tribute had a higher rank. Link to comment

Complication Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 It's interesting seeing her be picky with her clothing so she can dance comfortably, when nowadays she prioritises her clothing over dancing. Link to comment

They hype it up every year and show tons of commercials with old performances but it never ends up being anything close to what it was The issue with VMA's is that they don't make any sense anymore, since MTV isn't what it used to be to begin with. Back then it all made sense, because throughout the year there was this connection through the channel between the artists, the music and the fans. There was TRL (10 + Pedidos in Latin America ) there was the Making the video, there were MTV specials featuring a certain artist, countdowns, the videos themselves were important, more than just the songs. Everyone tried to do their best, now videoclips are just like some dressing on top of what the musicians do, and if they have any importance it's on YouTube / social media and not MTV anymore. So they do the awards show, but who are we supposed to be seeing, if there's no one following the channel. How are the nominees and performers chosen? Based on YouTube popularity? The BBH100? Like what does MTV have that separates it from other award shows? They let it die what used to make them original, which was the worship of the music video. 3 hours ago, Fckry said: I honestly think it’s time for a new awards show that takes everything to a whole new level The only thing I could think of would be something based on social media / YouTube but the YouTube awards weren't that popular. And they would have to be focused on just the music aspect. But a live show just doesn't work on social media, I think. Like, everyone would just watch it once it's over, but I don't know as a business how profitable it is for whoever was in charge of doing it. I just feel like the music scene in general, every artist has become so independent thanks to social media, there is no connection between them. There's just weird friendships that don't make much sense, or there's feuds started by stupid reasons. There will never be something like this again But most importantly, I think the main reason why awards show suck these days, it's because there's no audience actually. I mean, the biggest consumers of music of these days, which are the young people, they didn't grow up with this kind of shows or performances/performers, so they're not asking for them. They weren't forced to watch the music videos of other artists they don't like, while waiting to see their fave's video. So awards shows should get people that we, the older guys are interested in, Britney, Eminem, Christina, Backstreet Boys, etc. But they're not dominating the music scene anymore, so why would they go, why would they win an award or what would they perform?

Jerrycan Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 It was great remembering all these performances. Yes, MTV desperately needs another Britney or Madonna for the VMA’s ratings....but man do I wish our girl got that energy and passion back! Always will love her though Link to comment
