VMA Wrap-Up

So the MTV VMA's went off last night with just a couple glitches.  Lady Gaga came as a man, Nicki Minaj came as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry came as Nicki Minaj and Jay-Z came in Beyonce as she announced that she is expecting her own little diva, who I am sure will come out with her own wind machine.  I read that Beyonce's pregnancy wasn't that shocking since she had never been seen with that many clothes on.

•   Selena Gomez was a host for the MTV Pre-Show and spent the evening pretending to be a journalist.  From pretending to still being BFF with Demi Lovato to asking boyfriend Justin Bieber was his snakes name was, even though she has been playing with it for months.

•  Kanye West and Jay-Z surprised the audience with a performance, but a member of the audience decided to give Kanye a taste of his own medicine by storming the stage.  Security grabbed the guy before he could make a scene and the show went on.

•  Lady Gaga took another spill off the piano, but the camera cut to a concerned Adele, saving the male Gaga from embarrassment.

• MTV paid tribute to both Britney Spears and the late Amy Winehouse.  While Amy's was tasteful and fitting, poor Britney's acceptance speech was parlayed into introducing mama Beyonce.  Britney did prove that she is almost back to her old self, though we would have loved a performance.

• Katy Perry and Kanye West on for best collaboration.  As the buzzed Perry accepted it was shocking that she was more annoying than Kanye.

• Chris Brown seemed to think that if he flew over the crowd and tried to dance that we would forget about him being a woman beater.  When Nirvana began playing during his dance routine, I was hoping Kurt Cobain would make sure Brown was dropped from his high wire act.  Sadly, Chris survived.

• Jared Leto still hasn't realized that he is not Peter Pan and is a grown man.  Seriously, someone take away his black finger nail polish and give him a hair cut.

• Lady Gaga spent the entire evening in character as a man who I believe is the love child of Andrew Dice Clay and Ralph Machio.

Amy Winehouse: Not On Drugs When She Died

The toxicology report has just been released on the death of British singer, Amy Winehouse.  I know everyone had their suspicions that the known drug addict was using at the time of her death, the report has something different to say.

The family released the following statement after they were told the findings;

"Toxicology results returned to the Winehouse family by authorities have confirmed that there were no illegal substances in Amy's system at the time of her death. Results indicate that alcohol was present but it cannot be determined as yet if it played a role in her death. The family would like to thank the police and coroner for their continuing thorough investigations and for keeping them informed throughout the process. They await the outcome of the inquest in October."

Hopefully now, the talented Ms. Winehouse can begin to rest in peace.
