i never watch live TV for the most part. i LOVE DVRs because i'm way too lazy to remember when anything is going to be on. so, tonight i watched the 2013 AMAs--yes, i'm soooo late to the party. i mostly watched for the performances, but i did listen to some of the commentary. i feel like i can appreciate it more when i've see some of the comments that come through afterwards.
well, these are just a few thoughts that were provoked:
1. when did kesha turn into lady gaga? not vocally, just physically.
2. i don't like leather flannel shirts. just FYI, marc anthony.
3. i LOVE when country meets rap. dear nelly, i knew you didn't leave me. ayyy--must be the money!
4. i hate racism. that's nothing new. i also don't think that katy perry's performance was racist. at all. sorry if that makes anyone upset, but i think she loves the Geisha look and wanted to give props to it. also, so you know--if she ran around dancing slutty or doing other inappropriate things, i'd totally think it was disrespectful. but, i was in "asian alliance" in high school, and it wasn't to make fun of them--it was because i appreciated their culture so much.
5. i love so many of rihanna's songs. but, really? the first ever icon award from the AMAs?
6. back to marc anthony--and, you didn't make it work with j-lo...why?
7. justin timberlake has always been awesome in my book, but tonight i liked him a little more than i had in the past few years. cause of his country song performance. or is it his?
8. thank you, macklemore, for speaking truth about racism/racial profiling and how it needs to end.
9. even if christina aguilera wears a fake braid headband, her voice continues to amaze me. and maaaaybe makes my eyes tear up.
10. i'm still telling myself taylor swift doesn't do drugs.
11. kendrick lamar.
12. i feel bad for bruce jenner.
13. lady gaga. boo. a very, very big boo. (and r. kelly would make a really creepy president.)
14. lady gaga has an amazing voice. but, still boo.
15. thank goodness hunter hayes didn't win.
16. how come justin [timberlake] didn't thank his wife for anything? rude.
17. people hate on taylor swift for dancing and i think she is totally adorable.
18. the L in TLC does NOT stand for lil' mama. i want to cry.
19. floating kittens aren't totally written off in my book.
20. taylor swift won artist of the year. and i'm 29. and i love her.
please keep in mind that this is coming from someone who doesn't care about celebrities' lives, but loves music and decided to write a blog tonight/this morning. if you don't agree with the opinions stated above, that's no problem, cause i don't care. i love everyone with their own opinions equally. muah!
