vocalism Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 This obviously isn't going to happen, since she's in Italy, but it would have been really cool if Madonna showed up at the VMAs on Sunday and presented the Video Vanguard Award to Justin Timberlake. The commercials have mentioning Michael Jackson and Madonna as the "past winners," and not only would she be paying back the favor of him presenting her with the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame induction, but it would also be funny if she upstaged you know who.

Chimera Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 oh that would be truly fantastic...but she who must not be named won't surely be the main attraction...I mean a guy whose song made Radio History and a girl who peed on that other pop star on the charts are going to perform as well...besides she who must not be named will perform a hideous song so that won't be HER night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SecretGarden Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Presenting an award to Justin would be so beneath her. Really she shouldn't attend the VMAs again unless they're tributing the whole show to her, Madonna is way too good to attend otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotos8 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 http://www.slantmagazine.com/features/article/2003-mtv-video-music-awards-recap But all of that was upstaged by—who else?—Madonna. The reigning queen of MTV added another notch to her boy-toy belt of greatest VMA performances. The first, of course, was her performance of "Like A Virgin" at the inaugural ceremony 20 years ago (we'll get back to that in a minute), and the second was an elaborate interpretation of her hit "Vogue" in 1990: Madonna and company (her dancers and longtime backup singers, hot off of her Blond Ambition Tour) were dressed in Victorian garb, lip-syncing to the track, and flashing their bloomers. Not only did "Vogue" find Madonna at one of her many creative peaks, but it raised the bar for VMA stage performances and for pop music performance in general. While Madonna is one of the few pop singers who usually refuses to lip-sync, pomp overshadowed vocal technique on that night, but no one seemed to care. The same can be said for her opening performance at this year's VMAs. Like her very first VMA performance in 1984, a bride emerged from a giant wedding cake singing "Like a Virgin." Judging by the first few squeaky notes, it could very well have been Madonna circa 1984, but after a few not-so-innocent (and not-so-sexy) bars, the bride lifted her veil, revealing a well-publicized non-virgin, Britney Spears. Soon a dirrtier bride, a dark-haired Christina Aguilera, began to warble through the song's chorus. The pair rolled around the stage in vintage Madonna style, which in and of itself was a sight to behold. Of course, the "groom" would soon take the cake (for those who hadn't been tipped off already, both Beyoncé and Jay-Z spilled the beans during the VMA pre-show). Dressed in a black top hat and tuxedo, Madonna began to sing "Hollywood," the second single from her latest album, American Life. The trio strutted the stage arm-in-arm before bringing the spectacle to a climax with two open mouth kisses. (Cue shot of Justin Timberlake, not sure what to make of his famous ex and his current touring partner swapping spit with the most famous woman in the world.) Madonna rarely shares the stage with other stars, and for it to be Britney and Christina—who have been compared to and who cite Madonna as a primary influence—was nothing short of surreal. (Rumors abound that J. Lo was to have originally appeared in Christina's place, in which case Madonna would have been the best singer on the stage that night.) Add to that an appearance by Madonna's new Gap pal, Missy Elliott, who has been pegged as one of the greatest video artists since the Material Girl herself, and you've got a PR coup of diva proportions. It begs the question: Who thought this shit up? According to Fight the Good Fight Ministries, Satan did. A post on the nonprofit Christian organization's website chided MTV for "leading millions of impressionable youth down the greased pole to hell." The group claims that Satan is using a "legion of demonic beings" (Madonna, Britney, and Christina, no doubt) to "promote musical terrorism" (read: lesbianism). Of course, like terrorism itself, what would a Christian website be without a little propaganda and fear? The group exhorts: "God's word warns that homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of God but will be sentenced to the lake of fire." Quite honestly, I would much rather be in the lake of fire with Madonna and Christina than up in heaven with these nut-jobs. It's been close to a decade since a public appearance by Madonna has caused such a firestorm of controversy. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution apologized to its readers for printing a thumbnail-sized image of Madonna kissing Britney on their front page after a slew of complaints. The newspaper compared the "mistake" to the paper's printing of violent images from the war in Iraq several months ago. Of course, Madonna's message is always about more than just sex. The performance ended with the four women defiantly shouting the musical bridge from "Hollywood": "Music stations always play the same songs, we're bored with the concept of right and wrong!" It's difficult not to view the lyric—along with Madonna's sneering "Flip the station, change the channel"—as a timely indictment of both radio and MTV itself, who have virtually ignored Madonna's single and video. Still, the performance proves once and for all what the M in MTV really stands for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neutrocks Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 The official instagram of Material Girl has published this photo: Maybe will she be traviling to LA tomorrow?? Why would she? The Show is in NY! Look at the ticket stubs. Anyway, it's quite possible that she could attend for something that obviously doesn't need major rehearsal. Though, every year we hear she may attend, but she doesn't. I don't agree that "presenting" anything or anyone is beneath her. But I am quite humored how MTV still holds this AWARDS show on their channel when they rarely play the videos nominated or any video. Then again, they do have various other sister networks that do play videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ULIZOS Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Madonna's red carpet appearances are basically like the best thing EVER and it would've been amazing just to see her upstage she who must not be named by just showing up. But the Queen doesn't sit in an audience next to seat fillers and nobodies and endure 2 hours of b-class bitches putting on their reductive ass performances unless she's getting an award or performing.
