The 2005 Video Music Awards
Ah, the good ol', energy draining, blood-pumpin', and sometimes, heartbreaking award show. I quite enjoyed this VMAs. It was undoubtedly one extravagant show, considering that “Diddy” (formerly known as Puffy, Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, Chaka Kahn…and the list goes on) was the wonderful host of the night. When Diddy is in, expect some bling.
As expected, this year’s VMAs’ another Hip-Hop studded, with a hint of invading rockers who want to regain the glory. Sorry rock lovers, as long as the VMAs surfin' in Miami, you'll only get half-naked girls, Daddy Yankee and a thousand police officers securing the whole stadium. Pray that Robert Plant will host the show next year, and then maybe, just maybe, Hip-Hop will become the minority.
My favourite performance of the night is definitely Kanye West's Gold Digger featuring Jamie Foxx. Don't even argue with that, you know it rocks! I was also glad to see Shakira back in the spotlight, even though I didn't understand a single word she said. Surprisingly, Kelly Clarkson's finale wasn't so bad either. Her husky, high-ranged voice was undeniably awesome. She really reminded me of Janis Joplin. Five bonus points goes to the American Idol.
The 2005 VMAs could have been perfect if Shinder had a surprised performance. That would have been awesome. Besides, the theme of the award show is “Anything can happen”, and I really hoped that that happened. Maybe next year…
Overall, I think the VMAs favoured the pyromaniacs, spending $1,234,567,890 on fireworks and flames to create the “hell effect” – it clearly was an arsonist paradise. And may I add, that this award show's just an upgraded version of the BET awards, minus the praise-worthy Fugees.
Yup, keep praying for Robert Plant.
