MTV Blows it Again Big Time....

In sad news, MTV officially lost all credibilty with music fans yesterday when they decided to have another go at the VMAs. If last years atrocious show opener staring Ms. Meltdown of the Year Britney Spears and the near seizure enducing cuts back and forth from performances and presenters wasn't enough of a nail in the coffin, last night has to be. MTV presented Britney Spears with three separate awards for best yada yada and they did it with a straight face. The pop tart also didn't show up bloated, stoned or with a baby in her hand, so all in all it was deemed a success by the critics. These are actually the first VMAs Spears ever received in her career and I am pretty sure MTV guilted itself into presenting these since they all but destroyed her career last go around.

The irony surrounding this event is a television station that continues to avoid the ever present fact that it is a pale shadow of its former self still manages to debase itself more and more each year with awarding videos and artists that it no longer represents. I am proud of myself that even the idea of Britney Spears reappearing was not enough for me to pull myself away from the 60 Minutes interview with Alec Baldwin to watch this shit show. (NO OFFENSE MTV, Really!) Anyways, the buzz is all over in praise of Russell Brand saving the near dead awards show. His star is definitely rising, but not sure being the funny captain on a sinking ship is the best career move. Brand who is basically the illegitimate child of the Sex Pistols and Hugh Grant is always hilarious and apparently the underlying sexy snark he delivers actually grabbed the audience this time around. In addition to the Spears' nonsense, Christina Aquilera, Rhianna, The Jonas Brothers and more performed. I think I just threw up in my mouth. Anyways, one time MTV darling Courtney Love blasted the program for the obvious reasons. Sadly, who knows if Courtney or Kurt Cobain would even find their way onto the station nowadays if they were just coming up. Defamer don't think so...
