Granted there was always going to be debate aplenty, We literally “can’t” at Rihanna being nominated for Best Choreography. That’s an oxymoron.

The reality is that it’s her directors  should win Lifetime Achievement gongs for the work they put in to make it look like she putting in any herself!

Yes, she earns 3 gold stars for trying in the ‘Where Have You Been’ clip, yet just like ‘Rude Boy’ – the video is little more than frilly outfits and clever edits.

Anyway…

Do you agree with the nominations?!

Hopefully Rihanna is practicing right now, so that she can give a half decent performance….Hopefully they put some fresh faces up on stage and not just the same ole same old people with the same old performances they do on all the other award shows.

    • bedstuyfly July 31, 2012

        good are bad and still yet Rihanna still rises to the
        Occassion, could that be why there’s so much hate
        out there by yo broke asses for the “Carribbean”
        the International Mega Star?

    • mobwife July 31, 2012

    • Guest July 31, 2012

      I really don’t see how this is a “downfall” for Gaga if this awards show has been a joke for years…

  9. KB July 31, 2012

    Bey, lana and frank need to win.

  10. the real xoxo July 31, 2012

    “take care” was one of the least interesting videos of the year!
    rihanna? best choreography?
    VMAs are b*******.

  11. Truth July 31, 2012

    Definitely a Snub for Gaga. Marry The Night had a tremendous message. For Rihanna to be nominated for best video of her smoking and using drugs is just absolutely ridiculous.

  12. Toya July 31, 2012

    Looks like they snub a Artist who had a big year first Rihanna, Now Gaga? For publicity? Lol but ri boo boo u should not win choreography that would be a insult to all dancers and Katy perry every year? She won best LIVE lmao now that’s when you know she being favored

  13. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 31, 2012

    Rihanna had better snatch everything with ‘WFL’ and ‘WHYB’. Love her or loathe her, these 2 are her best videos. She doesn’t deserve to win ‘Best Choreo’, though. Chris Brown’s ‘TUTM’ was better, no shade.

    Lana Del Rey deserved more nominations, but her label is not really promoting her in the States, so no surprises there.

    M.I.A. went from being ignored to getting 3 nominations for a song that wasn’t even a hit. That’s a sign that she’s on ROC now 😉

    Madonna was totally snubbed, but so was GaGa’s ‘Marry The Night’. Interesting…

    Aside from that, I CANNOT wait for the performances!!

  14. Wacky O July 31, 2012

    Wow there all the bloody same! But I knew that even before I clicked the link to this shity topic lol

  15. Sleazy July 31, 2012

    Take care was NOTHING special it was so bland But the song is good…. Avvici getting a Nom lawd Rihanna Best Choreography is this Here shocker that’s just ATROCIOUS what in insult to all dancers

    • Lax July 31, 2012

      @SLEAZY,,,Why so bitter, bytch?
      Just know that yo hating ass will never
      be able to stop a work in progress, bytch!

      • Sleazy July 31, 2012

        You crazy ass b**** You make like rihanna Pay your bills? She don’t even know your ass exist!!…. You need a f****** LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m not BITTER she CAN’T DANCE b**** I’m just not delusional as YOU! GET A LIFE and GET A CLUE rihanna sucks so do you

      • Lax July 31, 2012

        Dang chris hires Rihanna’s Labe head?

    • Lax July 31, 2012

      @SLEAZY My Main thing among other things you know like
      food, health care, clothing, dental and add to that to ride yo
      “Dog Ass Till The Cows Come Home” you Worthless” piece of country shyt…And yo ass do know that Rihanna is nominated more times then any one else so open wide and Suck on that till yo heart contends,,,and by all mean keep trying to slow, stop and up root Rih, Rih, Ass!

  16. SLAYFANISTANN July 31, 2012

    Not even mad at these.Gaga only had two videos out last year and one of them was released last August.That being said,Beysus best take home at least one,and Rihanna for VOTY.

    Also,I wanna see Justine Beaver LOSE his awards just so I could see some meltdowns.

    • LTM July 31, 2012

      Where have you been?

      • SLAYFANISTANN July 31, 2012

        ATRL.

  17. WORDS OF WIZDOM B****** July 31, 2012

    rihanna has to win with wfl, she has to!! it was the most memorable vid of the year! and she hasnt won an award for a long time, she deserve it.. and i cant believe gaga hasnt annominated!! thats for beign overatted .. and M.I.A is nominated for like 3 times?? WTF…

  18. Virtuoso Intellect July 31, 2012

    As usual some of these nods make u go – WTF but VMAs dont shock me no more. I’lll be soaking in the hype. Hopefully we get some more-than-decent performances that night. Of course I hope my fav attends and picks up 1 or 2 or 3 moonmen. Hey how about a live premiere of her new single …. 😀

  19. Virtuoso Intellect July 31, 2012

    I hope Bad girls wins video of the year !! That ish is on another level but goin by their track record, MTV’ll most likely give it to a hit song like we found love

    • BitchICan’tEvenSpellWelfare July 31, 2012

      You betta say it again!

      Very underrated video. At least MTV is acknowledging it though, so kudos to them for that but you’re right again, We Found Love will probably win.

  20. TNAiPM July 31, 2012

    I’m really happy for the Throne and for King B for their nominations, they deserve to win.
    Video of the Year again is messed up with Katy Perry being nominated again… for what? A video where she walks around in a forest and a hospital… does it even mean anything, just cause she uses a lot of effects, it doesn’t mean that she should be nominated for this award…
    And Rihanna being nominated for this award, this annoys me as well, her video doesn’t exactly scream “positive message” to young girls, and because MTV are always going on about being safe and stuff, I’m kinda disappointed that this video was nominated. Her being nominated for the best choreo is b*******, she can’t dance and there have been other better choreographed videos than WHYB, it seems as through she has been nominated for something because this is her first and best attempt at dancing.
    Now Take Care, I don’t understand why there is this massive hype around this video, I guess the cinematography and the art direction is pretty good, but all Drake and Rihanna do in this video is hug and stand around… I realise that this may sound arrogant but I don’t think the video is worthy for a Video of the Year nod. Didn’t MTV also write an open letter to Drake about how derogatory his video for HYFR was? And now they’re nominating that same video for best Hip-Hop video!
    Gaga’s snub is annoying me as well as she had worked her ass off for the You & I and the Marry the Night videos, and the latter had her damn life story in it, it was a really important video, she could have been nominated for either of those videos in any category (apart from best Male), but MTV decided to snub her. This is the second year that they’ve done this just for Katy Perry and RIhanna and frankly what MTV are doing is obvious and nonsensical.
    It annoys me that when an artist such as Katy Perry or Rihanna has had a good year, they will automatically be highly nominated and because they are basically the most popular artists in the Video of the Year category, there’s no doubt that either of them will win it. And this is further seen with Justin Bieber being nominated for Boyfriend, firstly he is obviously gonna win it again because he has in the past and secondly I don’t understand what has been done in that video that hasn’t already been done before. Another example of this is Chris Brown with TUTM, he’s just dancing around in a club.
    I don’t understand why Kelly Clarkson was nominated for Best Video with a Message for Dark Side and not S (WDKY). the former is so dull and boring and I swear it’s the same concept been done before with Avril Lavigne, the latter is so much more exciting and original with a great message.
    I appreciate the nods to fun. & Janelle Monáe, Coldplay, Gotye, Frank Ocean, Lana Del Rey, Calvin Harris, M.I.A. and ADELE – Nice to know they are having some difference in the show but it does seem like they included Lana & Frank for buzz perhaps.
    Carly Rae Jepsen, Selena & The Scene, One Direction and The Wanted nominations disappoint me, they are not award show worthy videos.
    With Nicki Minaj, her Starships video had effort put into it and it was pretty fun, so I understand the nods to that but the Beez in the Trap video was some half-hearted stuff with her just slutting herself around, so I fail to understand that nomination.
    Anyway, this is all just my opinion.

    • Lax July 31, 2012

      I am so happy for Rihanna’s nods i mean after all she is one of the hardest working women in show biz and it matters a dam if others do not think so because they only have power on blogs and what they type do not have to be how it is. Comments and opinions are like a/h and we all have one!
      Can’t wait to see who all come out on top and it’s good to see Rihanna with Nods since often time her name get left out altogether and who will win is yet to be seen no matter what many might type and say!

      • Lax July 31, 2012

        The video’s concept shows Rihanna travelling around various locations “looking for a male partner who will please her”. The video begins with a shot of flowing water which appears to be set in a dark swamp-like area. Rihanna’s head is then shown hovering above the water as she begins the first verse. She is then presented as a reptilian creature as part of her back is lifted above the water. Rihanna then exits the water, showing a scale ensemble, much like a reptile, which covers her b******. As the bridge begins, a close up of Rihanna’s face is shown, half covered in a shawl, identical to the single cover. Choreography then begins as the singer is shown with a group of male dancers behind her, wearing tribal costumes in what appears to be an Egyptian desert. Rihanna dons a zebra-print outfit with oversized red trousers as she puts on a fast-paced routine against the backdrop of pyramids. Empty tree branches are shown, as well as a fire and a starry sky. Scenes of a n*** Rihanna are intercut, holding a whip made of hair, while similtaneously covering her b******.
        As the second verse begins, the singer is seen in an African hut lying on the floor, surrounded by female dancers. She performs on the floor, in one moment managing to put her leg over her head, before standing up and again, performing a dance routine. The performers are seen to make the shape of an eye, with Rihanna in the centre as the pupil. In this scene she wears a black lace ensemble with a new wild curly hairstyle. This is followed with the singer laying in a large birds’ nest and then goes back to the singer with her previous wild hairstyle, performing a complex dance routine with female dancers, this time with fluorescent green effects. The penultimate scene shows Rihanna in a long dress which lights up neon red, while the singer has sequins across her face. She then appears to channel Hindu god Shiva as multiple arms surround her body. In the final scene, Rihanna and her male background dancers seen previously, slowly descend back underwater into the swamp; Rihanna’s head completely submerges below the water

        Rihanna “Where Have You Been”. Rihanna is in it to win it.

      • TNAiPM July 31, 2012

        Um… why are you telling me a detailed description of the WHYB video? What relevance does that even have to what you’re trying to say? You can’t judge whether a video is good or not by a written description of it, ergo you can’t judge where the choreography of a video is good or not by a written description of it.

    • mobwife July 31, 2012

      LOL really? CB & his team Choreography his steps and CB directed the damn video! He deserves to win for TUTM. By your standards no one should win an award as everything that you see and every word uttered today has been seen and heard in the past! They should go back and strip away every award from eveyone received after the 1st year of MTV VMAs.

      Yet you think that certain ppl deserve their video music awards 0_O? Are there videos new and original? Otis is a bootleg copy of an Otis Redding song. Jayz just ripped the doors off an expensive car & dropped models screaming in the backseat. Why the f*ck would that deserve a VIDEO MUSIC AWARD? Where is the orginality in that? Per your standards? And naturally you -like all bandwagon jumpers – love the nod to Ocean!

      • TNAiPM July 31, 2012

        Actually, no, if you read by comment PROPERLY, you will see that I do not think that no one should ever win a VMA, even from the first VMAs.
        You are extremely uneducated and you’re trying to be clever, twisting my words into something that they were not and are not.
        You are talking about the Otis SONG, when this is a award show that is focused on the VIDEO, therefore your argument is flawed as the quality of the song, which I actually like, a lot, does not account for when deciding whether this video should win an award or not.
        And in the defence of the video itself, it is actually a good video because it represents what Hip hop is, it is not supposed to be highly imaginative, there is a reason why it is like that, it’s almost making fun of how Hip hop is, that is why it is clever.
        It is obvious that Chris Brown had not put much thought into that video, if he did direct it himself, I will give credit to the choreo, as it was quite extensive but he dances in a club and flirts with women in a club, I’m sorry but hasn’t that been done before – Trey Songz, Usher? I actually like the song, and the video is decent but I don’t think it’s VMA worthy, I personally think it’s because MTV wants to cause some buzz by getting him and Rihanna together.
        AND it’s not my fault you’re in love with a wife beater!
        P.S I hope none of the words I used were too big for your head to cope with!

      • mobwife July 31, 2012

        @TNAiPM

        No you are the uneducated one. I am not twisting your words. I’m merely trying to follow your “chicken logic”!

        Ummm, reading is fundamental. I commented on both the song and its accompanying video! And spare me the drivel about drug dealer jayz’s existentialistic video savvy… please!! It’s a bootleg video with no meaning what so ever. That wont however, stop the powers that be from giving it a fake award!

        LOL, yet its “obvious that CB put no thought in his video”…LMAO you are priceless with your BS!

        LOL, you are a real lunatic! “In love with this kid”, hardly. I’m in love with his strength to battle in the face of much racial hostility and unfair treatment! “wifebeater” Who was he married to IDIOT? A “wifebeater” that would be Jayz who beat Amil Lion and Foxy Brown. A wifebeater would be Tommy Lee who beat Pam anderson. A wifebeater would be Eminem who beat wife Kim for many yrs. A wifebeater would be Chalrie Sheen who has a 20 yr histroy of beating women. A wifebeater would be country star Alan Jackson who beat wife Denise for many years. A wifebeater would be Rodney Atlkins who beat wife Tammy on Nov 2011. No, I’m not in love with a “wifebaters” or I would be kissing Illuminati Jayz’s drug dealing, woman beating, abusive violent stabbing tail just like you! …..YOU SIMPLETON!!

  21. KD July 31, 2012

    Nothing against Frank but I wonder if he would have been nominated sans any letter…I’ve never seen Swim Good on MTV.

    • Kingphoenix July 31, 2012

      MTV is so fake.

      • Benron (F*** you h**) July 31, 2012

        I know. Last year they snubbed Rihanan and know I see her name 11 times SMH

    • mobwife July 31, 2012

      NO!

  22. Lax July 31, 2012

    This will be good to the “Last Drop” and see how they try to
    justify Rihanna been nominated so many times. Bytches yo asses
    can run but you can’t hide. Keep talking, typing clawing and pawing
    negative ass shyt on the “Carribean” and watch and feel yo asses
    lossing this battle from start to finish no matter how pissy yo asses
    might get.
    I know it cook yo gooses well done whrn Rih achieves and that is the fun of
    being in Rihanna’s Navy seeing yo asses sweat keep trying to shyt talk OUR
    girl and keep getting slapped accross yo lying lips and you broke asses…..

  23. Roman July 31, 2012

    So sad how the only thing Sam finds worth picking on is whyb. What about Love On Top video. That was constantly the same repetitive choreo with changing colours. WOW, it totally slayed my life.

    Gtfoh

    • Eric July 31, 2012

      YOU ARE LIKE THE ONLY REAL PERSON AMOUNGST STANS AND HATERS, THIS SITE IS FOR PPL WHO STAN FOR ARTISTS LIKE CB, BEY, AND CIARA (BLESS HER,SMH) AND HATERS TOWARDS PEOPLE LIKE RIHANNA WHO WORKS DAMN HARD TO GET WHERE SHE IS NOW…

      NOT TO RANT BECAUSE I LOVE ALL ARTISTS BUT HERE ARE THE CONCRETE FACTS:

      GAGA HASNT RELEASED A REALLY GOOD VIDEO DURING THE PAST YEAR TO BE RECOGNIZED, THE LAST AWARD SHOW YES BUT NOT THIS ONE

      BEYONCE VID, AS MUCH AS I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE SONG, THE VID WAS ALRIGHT AT MOST

      NOW CB…REALLY…HE’S DONE BETTER…I MEAN THE VIDEO WAS SHOT IN THE SAME WAREHOUSE/CLUB SCENE!!!! LIKE COME ON PPL KEEP IT REAL FOR TWO SECONDS, THE VIDEO WAS CLICHE

    Chris needs to stay away from these shows so he can come back fresh and his fans will get to miss him, if he wants to be another Rihanna then he should prostitute himself for these award shows for ratings, he doesnt have the luxury of some of the devil worshiping artists who get pushed heavily by labels and have their singles and albums paid for, to be ontop of Itunes, chris give them a big F*** YOU!

    • Benron (F*** you h**) July 31, 2012

      That was a whole load of s***. Rihanna skipped the A.M.A’S People’s choice and almost ever other show this year. She went to the Brits and A.M.A’S Because she wasnt busy at the time.

      Why do you assume everyone is “DEVIL WORSHIPPING” when your face Chris is dancing with demon eyes in his NOMINATED VIDEO for this show. If Labels payed to get an album ontop of itunes they wouldn’t get any money and drop their artists’ flop asses.

      Chris is a flop who wont go platinum and will be back to dancing on street corners.

        Ps
        Even “That Grape” took the nods and tried to make something out odf Rihanna’s nods , that ius so weak minded and sad to say the lest it hurt them “That Grape” to pring the article with Rihanna in it and not to print, type something negative as hell to try to Back Bite Rihanna don’t you all know you can not stop a work in progress by Negative press on Rihanna?

        F*CK what you have to say! Chris Brown is an amazing artists and if he sells 1 million copies of 100 compies it doesn’t change that. There ia an entire RACIST FEMINAZI movement against this kid. Inspite of that bullsh** he still BLESSED BY GOD and continues #Winning! Besides we all know success in today’s rigged fake music industy is determined by who the machine markets.

        Funny how obsess you groundlings are with record sells and who may or may not sell 1 million. No matter what you say or who you may like no one is selling like Adele. Both 19 & 21 have made chart history if you want to tak about success.

        Rihanna is mentored by Jayz and we all know he is an Illuminati puppet that’s why folks say she is a devil worshipper. Chirs special effects in a video doesn’t mean he worships the deveil fool. DUH…..

The paris ish is a complete No, No. It would be interesting to see Bey, JAy and justine not will any cos those guys dont alway go home empty handed even when they put out crapy stuff ( well except 4 bey for count downn but if you check where she lets say got the inspiration for the video from well you might just let her go home empty handed )

    Eminem, 60 Million Facebook Likes: Rapper Sets New Record
    Posted Jul 31st 2012 9:15AM by Kenneth PartridgeComments—
    Kevin Winter, Getty Images
    Eminem has battled haters throughout his career, but in light of new Facebook data, the rapper can look himself in the mirror and declare, “They like me. They really, really like me.” As Contact Music reports, Slim Shady has become the first person to hit 60 million likes on the popular social-networking site.

    Em is more than 600,000 Facebook likes ahead of runner-up Rihanna, his collaborator on “Love the Way You Lie,” who’s picked up some 59,381,829 approvals from online buds.

    Ri may still catch the Detroit MC, CNET reports, as she’s adding 26,000 likes per day, compared to Eminem’s 24,000. Trailing close behind is Lady Gaga, whose 53 million Facebook likes are nothing compared to her nearly 28 million Twitter followers.

    Proving that Rihanna is loved the world o-v-e-r and there not a dam thing the haters can do but keep right on hating on her and her hard work!

    girls need to have several seats!!!!!!!!!

    first off when wfl dropped everyone and their mother was saying how good the video was, and how it deserved a nomination for video of the year, well it did now you all are bitching? really now. also whyb for choreography makes sense she did her thing, was it some ciara or beyonce type choreography? no it was rihanna, and it was a great video. only haters trying to critic her on every thing doesn’t think she should be nominated.

    also gaga wasnt snubbed she only released one video that was eligible for this years vmas, marry the night. sometimes they get nominated sometimes not. also beys countdown was better than love on top, but because love on top charted higher it got the nomination. people should know by now these nominations go by chart position and impact of the video, whether people like it or not these videos made some type of buzz, and got some recognition.

    ps take care was nominated more for its artistry, the symbolism of the bull, fish, and bird, which is drake, rihanna and chris. mtv got the message which is why its nominated, still admitedly a boring video though.

    • Virtuoso Intellect July 31, 2012

      You and i is eligible too for Gaga. I agree WFL deserves its nods and so does WHYB but cmon best choreo? Like someone said Kelly’s motivation choreo was better executed.

      • commanderofthedancefloor July 31, 2012

        there is a big reason why motivation is not nominated!!!!!!! the music video dropped in april of last year, its eligability period is way over. also the video is good, but its all grinding, not really any choreography, whyb may not be the best in the dance area but she does more than just grind. no shade to kelly though.

        almost forgot about you and i music video, which is actually my personal favorite gaga video, i dont know why that isnt nominated? i think they should replace take care with you and i but, alot of videos have been snubbed over the years.

      • Virtuoso Intellect July 31, 2012

        Oh u right about motivation. Well i guess there’s just isnt much choreo in videos anymore these days. At least not MTV-friendly ones. Rih deserves the recognition though. They’ve snubbed her far too long. I dint like her videos from the loud era save S&M but Rated R n GGGB were superb.

      • commanderofthedancefloor July 31, 2012

        yeah, they completely ignored everything that came out of rated r like most people did. russian roulette was a really good video, that could of got a nomination.

        love on top being nominated over countdown was off for me too. my opinion countdown is a much better video than love on top, but mtv also takes into consideration the chart performance of the songs nominated.

    I’m glad Bey’s Countdown is getting acknowledged. I’ve been seeing that chereo in so many videos following behind it. Bey deserves some recognition (of course it would only be controversial only when Bey does those moves). Anyway, Love On Top was another great visual. Glad to see honey Bee getting nods for the right songs.

    Overall the nominees are a bit repetitive. Some lack luster videos have been selected as usual. That’s nothing new. Frank Ocean is being thrown in for hype, but it’s refreshing to see a few interesting people listed. You just can’t get too mad about talent being noticed. I’m more excited about seeing Alicia Keys perform than this list though. I don’t expect much from the VMA’s.

    I think the list of winners will probably look like this:

    Video of the Year
    Gotye, “Somebody That I Used To Know”

    ‪Best New Artist
    Carly Rae Jepsen, “Call Me Maybe”

    So MTV finally realized Rihanna existed again? They have been snubbing her since 2007. Glad she finally got some nominations. Not suprised to see Madonna and GaGa missing from the list. In fact Im really not suprised at all with the nominations. But I see some of you underestimate the power of tween fans when it comes to vote related award shows. Who I think will win

    Video of the Year: Wide Awake – Katy Perry or Rihanna
    Best New Artist – One Direction
    Best Male Video – Justin Bieber or One Direction
    Best Female Video – Selena Gomez & the Scene
    Best Electronic Video – Calvin Harris
    Best Hip-Hop Video – Nicki Minaj
    Best Pop Video – One Direction or Rihanna

    • Guest July 31, 2012

      People like you are the reason why people hate her!

  58. Pop Royalty ( F*** Yo Fav) July 31, 2012

    hahahahaaha R I H A N N A is taking this b****** by storm 😆 , and a shout-out to M. I. A.

    • ADELE : : QUEEN OF POP August 1, 2012

      and then the alarm will ring !!

  59. pat July 31, 2012

    not a fan of Rih vocally or anything, but definitely not a hater… she is running the game right now…congrats!!

  60. That B*tch July 31, 2012

    Most of these nominations are really ridiculous.
    The VMA’s are nothing but a populairty contest. This award show does not stay true to it’s name, I thought this was supposed to be about the best VIDEO out this year, not about the best SONG that stayed on the charts the longest.
    Ridiculous, I won’t be watching this year.

  61. Gilberto July 31, 2012

    I think We Found Love deserves the Video Of The Year. It’s her best video to date.
    I’m happy that Gaga didn’t get any nomination this time. I love her, but her BTW era’s videos suck! It is sad to see that there isn’t any Best R&B Video category. 🙁

  62. Gilberto July 31, 2012

    Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, Best Direction, Best Editing and Best Visual Effects are technical awards. In other words, they don’t go to the singer, they go to the director of the music video. Best Choreography goes to the choreographer.

  63. JohnVidal(RIP Whitney-truegreat) July 31, 2012

    First of all: these awards were always pointless. Second: they don´t even give them to the best videos, just a generic popularity thing
    Lana del Rey should be more on that list and of course Gaga since “Marry the Night” is the best video of the last 12 months

  64. mkigz July 31, 2012

    I am HELLA PISSED that there isnt an R&B category – Last time I checked there are currently R&B artists out there (Beyonce, Trey Songz, Kelly Rowland, Usher (to an extent)). I want to make predictions but it really is unpredictable on a lot of the categories since fans get to vote
    smh
    The last good show for the VMAs was 2009, since then they have been S***!

  65. Rita Slays July 31, 2012

    There hasnt been an R&B catagory for a while now. Im annoyed they axed the Best Collaboration Video catagory too.

  66. Sandra July 31, 2012

    Okay I read ALL these comments and I will say this. Y’all talking bout b frank n rih so….il say something. I believe if your a great artist with great videos or good videos, b recognized not 4 coming out. Frank I hope u win ur a great artist. Now this Rihanna and beyonce stuff has 2 STOP!! Beyonce said love on top was suppose to be SIMPLE! OMG I just looked at whyb 4 the first time…not what I expected from all this hype…Rihanna STANS!! Her dancing WAS A LITTLE STIFF but we no she’s not a dancer so but she’s barely a decent singer *cough*. Yeah I had 2 throw shade lol. And choreography itself isn’t all that I GUESS 4 video of the year but DEFINATLEY NOT best chroagraphy. Um I think j and b on vacation anyway. So probably won’t show this show I think is gonna b wack I’ll just watch the performances I wanna c on YouTube and look at the list of winners. But stop saying negative stuff about one artist to BRING UP ONE. Like okay a lot of this bey vs rih is dumb. But I’m about to show you how to idle… gush? Over your fav. Okay I honestly like bey better and I can say more with her okay here goes: I love beyonce! She’s a great singer and is regonized as one of this generations best performers and the female micheal Jackson. The king of pop even came looking for HER at a party . With her album 4 people say it flopped but it was the 3rd best female selling record or whatever or close to it. And don’t forget her album was LEAKED everybody and they mama had it illegally. She’s also been regonized by tina turner Stevie wonder prince Diana mIcheal Jackson and Michelle Obama! With conuntless others and performered with prince n tina. You almost never c her out n about in clubs n drinking smoking etc. she also stayed true to herself n did a great r&b album. Say what you want but all these other except for a few go with what will sell Like pop but she didn’t so kudos to her. And 4 still sold! And finally.She dated jayz for 6 YEARS before marrying him then 4 YEARS to have his child.: okay I’m finished c how good I….boasted! ( that’s the word) bout b n didn’t downgrade any other artists. Y’all need to learn how to do that but I guess with of y’all faces yall have to because they ain’t got nothing on the artist they are being compared to so y’all got to point out very small flaws but whatever. R&b isn’t dead either it just isn’t regonized like it should that’s t it’s “dieing” but hopefully TGT brings us something soon but this is long but I don’t care someone PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS! I would love to hear what you have to say bye.

      stfu wih that essay

  67. Quetta July 31, 2012

    Congrats to everyone on being nominated. Not sure if I’ll be watching the vma’s. Only if the king makes an appearance then I will watch other than that..no thank you.

  68. Jazz July 31, 2012

    I’m a huge beyonce fan but why is love on top be nominated for video of the year. Compare to the other videos associated with 4. Love on top is the least creative. Prephaps, countdown or dance for you could be a better choice.

    • Virtuoso Intellect July 31, 2012

      It isnt

  69. S****** Blonde July 31, 2012

    Honestly, Lana Del Rey has the best videos of the year, her videos have atmosphere. Rihanna’s “We Found Love” is also one of the best videos of the past 2 years, Lady Gaga Attempts to become her videos in the best of all times has disappointed a lots, i mean why make a 13 minutes video who makes no sense at all, boring video, my fav. video from Born This Way was “The Edge of Glory”, to some a bad video, to me just beautiful, simple, just her looking gorgeous. You don’t have to make a 13 minutes video just to make people believe your videos are the best, Michael Jackson was a pioneer and his videos were good, you enjoy every part of it but her videos just not, for example Madonna’s video “Bedtime Story” is one of the best videos ever and the video begins with music and ends with music., if you know what i mean, Beyonce’s “Countdown” is just another copy, the video should have been nominated in a new category “Stolen video of the year”. I can understand why The Queen of Pop didn’t have a nomination this year because her only good video this era is “Girl Gone Wild”, i’m ok with that but Beyonce “Love on Top” are you kidding me, low budget video with a supposed pregnant women.

  70. Seriously July 31, 2012

    Like seriously This “LAX” person needs a life he comments on everything about rihanna I mean his name is everywhere WOW I’m shocked there are people like that in the world GET a LIFE like seriously join a Gym or a knitting group SOMETHING #sadLonelySoul

    • Lax August 1, 2012

      @SERIOUSLY Why are you worried about what “Lax” is doing on a blog spot? why aren’t you ever concerned about the Raw Hate and negative comments dit=rected toward Rihanna by yo self and those who hate on Rihanna. Why aren’t yo ass on the NICKI thread and trying to save nicki8 from all of the hate directed toward her. And why are you not speaking on and about the hate directed toward Rihanna? see where i am coming from … Last time i checked it a=was a blog spot and why worry about a single blogger as compared to the number of haters on a blog going after one artist out of all the artist named on the board
      PS
      Why do some worry about me taking up for Rihanna and not worry about those who hates on rihanna with a passion? Why is that..
      That grape isn’t running a blog spot to elect thr next congressman this is a blog spot and that is what you do on a blog. Do not worry about me worry about your dam self,,,bytches….

      • Lax August 1, 2012

        @SERIOUSLY Know that as long as that grape
        don’t have a problem with their bloggers i don’t either. And if “That Grape” got rid of all the people who don’t like each other are the bloggers who are always ready for a party like me then where would the site be from blocking all of their bloggers unlike folks like you SERIOUSLY who will comment one time and then talk shyt about some one who spends a lot od=f time in the blogosphere talking crap at haters and friendly folks alike. You know you can please some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time. I will try to remind myself to not respond to those who are bitter, pissy and as salty as hell that i will tap that ass if it negativity on any of my fave’s….

    • Lax August 1, 2012

      @SERIOUSLY You keep living and yo ass will see all kinds of different people on a blog spot, yo ass will see haters, lovers and fights and hook ups. And if yo ass is so worried about me and my life then why don’t yo ass try living my life and being me since yo ass is so concerned about me and my life. You worthless bytch you are mad well i can’t help you with that check with yo doctor and see if he or she can give you something that will help yo ass not worry about BLOGGGGGGGERS on a blog and how many times they click on and carry on. Worrying about me on this blog spot could be harm to yo health sake because blogggggggin has never killed anybody but worrying yo ass of about me are any bloggggggger could cause yo ass problems in the long run because worrrrrrying is bad for folks, deery!!!!!!
      PS
      and if you ever worried about what the haters said that would surely get yo ass down because the BIGGGGGER
      andy artist get the more hate there is directed at them and ESPECIALLLLLLLLY Rihanna why arent yo ass on other threads trying to shyt talk the haters and the normal folks alike???????

  74. MadBrax July 31, 2012

    I think the people who Beyonce ripped off for those videos should get the nomination really

  75. Joseline July 31, 2012

    Its just funny to me that half of you come on here read the post and bash rihanna? Like get a LIFE please!!! I dont like Mariah Carey but do you see me going and reading her post and commenting on them ?

    And to you Mrs. Sam I just love how your review was about no one else but RIHANNA lol… You obviously are mad… She did dance in the video so whats the problem? You really need to get a real job/life as well because you need to learn how to cretic someones work professionally you are at the bottom of the barrel and need i life savor to come back up!!!

    Never Wast My Time On MTV Award’Show And I Don’t Understand Why The Navy Keep Comparing Rihanna To Lady G And Being Happy While Trashing Gaga Cause Rihanna Surpass Her! It’S Like………………..Hummm………
    Ok You’re Getting Cocky Cause Your Fav(Rih 7Y In The Game) Is Doing Better Than Somebody Else(Gagaloo Who’S 4Y In The Game)?! Saaaaad! Realllllllllly Ssssssad!!

    • Lax August 1, 2012

      @MACHAVIEL Every one of the navy do not trash gaga
      i love and respect gaga’s Hustle and to me she is one of the New Chicks” on the block that is doing it big. Yo ass who hates on Rih with a PASSION are just trying to get some shyt started between gagas fans and the nave you are not slick in the least.
      PS
      The reason i know u r full of shyt is because yo ass is never ever saying jack shyt about the haters going in on Rihs ass yo ass just jumps right in and tries to do as much damage to Rihanna’s career as you can with yo claws and pass, liar, liar pants on fire….

  79. ADELE : : QUEEN OF POP August 1, 2012

    beyonce will win the three awards , hope that .

    i cannot beleive how strong this woman is !!

    she was pregnant , had a baby , had to be her own record label manager , faced a huge lawsuite , was hated by many people who beleived in “fake pregnancy” and “skin bleach” issues , and she still has done things that tens of other “relevant” singers can only dream of , even in their best era’s !!

    i must say , this woman is dangerously strong !!

  80. mido August 1, 2012

    wtf jlo dance again nominated just for best choreo and the b**** beyonce for best feamle video ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww it really sucks

    • ADELE : : QUEEN OF POP August 1, 2012

  81. MACHAVIEL August 1, 2012

    Lllol @Lax I Don’t Understand S*** Hahaha!!!! But Keep Giving Your Blood For Rihanna And Check Your Fellow Members The Passion Hateful They Have Toward My Girl Lady G And Maybe Your Comment Would Make Sense!!!
