the vmas, 2011
here are the highlights, the winners and the what just happened moments.
gaga opened the show. as a man. and then continued to act as this man (jo calderone) for the remainder of the show. she's special. really special.
these two can do no wrong. ok, kanye can. but never, never jay.
if "shutting it down" were in the dictionary, this performance would be next to it.
this was great, but i have two questions: 1) why were children performing it? 2) why wasn't this a medley of britney songs performed by today's younger pop stars?
best vma performance ever? i mean she's currently carrying jay-z's baby. or is it destiny's child? (see what i did there?)
rip amy.
because it makes so much sense to perform a song that requires 95% bleeping.
as far as the winners:
- video of the year- katy perry, "firework"
- best female video- lady gaga, "born this way"
- best new artist- tyler, the creator
- video vanguard- britney spears
- best male video- justin bieber, "u smile"
- best collaboration- katy perry ft. kanye west, "e.t."
- best hip hop video- nicki minaj, "super bass"
- best rock video- foo fighters, "walk"
- best pop video- britney spears, "till the world ends"
- best video with a message- lady gaga, "born this way"

yes
david guetta's soon-to-be-released album, nothing but the beat, is looking better and better. check out the recently leaked track "turn me on," featuring nicki minaj. not only does rap's queen spit some new verses, she also shows off some pretty impressive pipes. it looks like david guetta's the new timbaland, creating smash hits with the artists of the moment. nothing but the beat drops next week, august 30.

lindsay lohan secretly paints graffiti at night. well, in music videos at least. what if a secret, underground celebrity graffiti ring existed? think about it.

gaga, the mermaid?
um. couldn't she make a traditional video just once? lady gaga debuted the video for "you and i," a six minute piece of cinematic confusion. the song's great, and the video an artistic feat- but together? they make no sense. while everyone is sure to praise gaga for her ingenuity (for the billionth time), i can't help but wonder, why the eff are you dressed as a mermaid?

summer is almost over. why?
the show
this is the worst thing on tv right now, but i watched two hours of it last night. and will probably watch the next two hours next weekend.
the movie
i want to see it again. and again. and then at least one more time. ok, two more times.
the look
i wish this were real.

movie review: the help
oscars for everyone! that was my first thought after screening the help, starring emma stone, viola davis, bryce dallas howard, octavia spencer and allison janney. based on kathryn stockett's best-selling novel of the same name, the help follows recent college grad skeeter (stone) back home to jackson, mississippi, where she finds she just doesn't quite fit in anymore. all her high school friends are now married with kids and help of their own, no career aspirations in sight- and plenty of blind racism to go around. aspiring journalist skeeter can't quite stand the social inequality she's faced with on a daily basis. each days she's forced to watch the help look after less-than-appreciative families, the more an idea plants itself in her head- she needs to write a book. taking a big risk, maids aiblene (davis), reserved and respected, and the outspoken minny (spencer) join skeeter in her conquest to take down hilly hollbrook (howard), the leader of the high society pack. the movie holds onto the spirit of the book, making slight changes that work- for the better- on screen. while some dramatic moments are cut short, and some comedic moments beaten to death, the movie does not feel like a two-plus hour history lesson. instead, it's an escape to the past with stand-out performances and memorable moments you won't want to leave behind.
