I don't think that's it. You can literally say that about any generation of musicians. And most people say about every new generation.

And the "shine" and glamour that your speaking of was gone when Twitter became a thing. Once you can connect with your faves directly. It was over. The things your speaking about are more your perception/opinion of this generations musicians,  not necessarily the reason why award shows are dying out. There's really no logical correlation between those two things.

Just looking at the thumbnail for this Topic on the front page showcases my entire point.  Britney, Christine, Aaliya, Tony Braxton, Jessica Simpson, 98 Degrees, the spice Girls, Destiny’s Child, Backstreet Boys, Nsync.  They were all presentable.  Artists today go on stage looking like garbage.

My boyfriend sends me a daily reminder, but he didn’t today so maybe I need to send him a and ask him where my reminder was today

I think that people have reevaluated their lives since Covid-19, and watching self entitled narcissists collect awards while giving speeches that are political and divisive, are no longer of interest to many. I didn’t watch. 

Not to sound like an old fart but what happened to the times where stars have publicist to save them from acting a fool and actually be professional. Like sometimes I don’t want to hear that stuff, just accept your award and go

That’s amazing man and what’s wonderful was seeing her bloom out. You can see she was nervous in the beginning but she kept going and soon we saw that light in her eyes and you can tell she found her confidence again.   

I thought the same! She BLOOMED on stage!! Lovely way to put it <3

Oh LESSONS is the code! Right! I've been wondering what the code was since I came back. Now I remember. I told y'all I forgot a lot of things when I went on hiatus.

Even the performers were so-so.

This is what happens when you nominate Dua for zero to none

Karma for the US doing DulaPepe dirty

I mean... Have y'all seen that TRAGIC lineup? That is the WORST lineup i've EVER seen in a MAJOR award show. Wtf. Where are the superstars? That lineup was full of industry plants and D-list people no one cares about.

People are also tired of watching shows that turn everything into politics. Hence why the NBA ratings are down too. We want entertainment to escape the **** that is going on. So stop pushing this political agenda down our throats 

That’s why I hate Demetria. 

Spoiler

Off topic but is true tho

Doesnt surpise me, the new generation of artist is pure garbage.

Not really surprised by the ratings since the only interesting thing was Doja Cat (I really liked the Say So bit of her performance btw, so much better and clasier than her Vma performance). No Gaga. No ratings 

[princessmimi]

Wow really?  

I didnt even know it was on and usually I watch it

[britfan90]

How am I supposed to give my opinion without any live content? 🤣 I want to love it so badly, but without seeing something tells me it’s just bad anyways
