Days before she’s receive to the highly sought after award at this weekend’s VMAs, Beyonce has been showered with praise by MTV President Van Toffler, who has revealed that she was the “obvious choice” when he was tasked with deciding which of Pop’s star would be honoured on the night.
Details on his decision below…
Speaking to ‘Billboard‘, Toffler explained:
The decision to give Beyoncé the award had absolutely nothing to do with the controversy or chatter and was decided well before this. In fact, just after Justin [Timberlake] left the stage in 2013. And then when Beyoncé put out an album in such a visual way, she was the most obvious choice.

THE POWER OF JAY-Z’S CHEQUEBOOK
I fail to see this logic when beyonce checking account is bigger than his.
Okay!
I mean duh. Queen. Can’t wait.
The Queen! She better have been their “obvious” choice! Also, I cannot wait until she SLAYS that stage come this Sunday.

Ps. I would like to give a shout out to my boo “Slayretha Franklin” YASSSSSSSSS
Hey Stephy is I true that you twerk for food stamps
LMAO! Corny as hell!
Yawn. So tired of this severely over rated heifer. Illiterate song thief fifth grade drop out.
U MAD OR NAH ??????? STOP SEETHING LIKE A DERANGED THOT OUT OF PENISES TO SUCK AND CONGRATULATE D QUEEN………….
Let me guess…stunt queen or retail? Life is miserable for you isn’t it?
Bey deserved the Vanguard Award before Justin Timberlake. None of his solo videos made an impact on Pop Culture like the Single Ladies video, and this is coming from a fan of both.
You are biased. I’m not fan of any of them but still JT deserved it more. At least I knew how most of his videos looked like before and the only memorable from Beyonce is Single Ladies. Just my opinion.
King Bey will be making history as the first black women in music to receive the vanguard award so proud of her
So, proud of the QUEEN!
Well, Janet actually won this award in 1990. Regardless, it’s a great honor for Beyoncé. Love the Queen!
that beyonce reign just want LET UP ! Congratz Queen! all your flop faves should take notes
of course she’s the obvious choice, legend in the making! such an icon and a force of nature. She is the music industry’s jewel. All eyes will be on BEYONCE this Sunday and whether youre a stan or a hater, everyone will tune in to see her. Good luck B! #BeyMA’S 🙂 🙂 🙂
BEYONCE B******!!!!

#ASKGRAPEJUICE
Because it’s racist
Racist? Have you lost your marbles?
BECAUSE SAM DOES NOT A S*** ABOUT A STUPID, CHILDISH, WHITE GIRL SONG DAT IS AS FORGETTABLE AS ONE OF CIARA’S LAST ALBUM…
Leave the kid alone, he has always been polite, it’s not his fault that his favorite is successful on the charts and album sales, are we gonna call racist every white commentator on Thatgrapejuice.
They only call YOU racist because you are.
LOL THE HIVE IS THREATENED BY THIS LITTLE WHITE GIRL
WATCH HER SINGLE DEBUT AT NUMBER ONE WITH NO GIMMICK AND MINI P*** VIDEO
@SURPRISE…….(DEC.13)
There’s been Taylor Swift posts before, so you’re mistaken.
#fail
No i’m not, i never said there were not any post about her… there could have be several post about her c*** and how it’s wider dan the river nile, i still don’t think sam gives a s*** niether do i frankly….SORRY HUN.
A terrible video for an equally terrible song–congrats.
While i’m not particularly impressed by her videos, i think she totally deserve the award, she loves to make music videos, just for the sake of it.
The best music videos by an African American Female Popular artist still remains Janet Jackson tbh…
Yep, now you’re speaking my language.
But you cant deny that Missy Elliot has some great music videos .. Iconic even
nobody cares about making great videos anymore except Gaga. They are all cheap trash videos. ALL OF THEM.
Agree… she was the obvious choice
What happened to “Telephone Pt.2”
That video would slaay!
Hey Boo!
Hell she should’ve got it before Brit and Justin. Congrats agaiin titian Bey, and you better slay me Sunday.
#BeyMA’s

Duh! Haters fall back and stay mad!
MTV are doing a live fan tribute for Beyonce when she receives her award! Cannot wait.
True talent
Beyonce deserved this way before justin tumblefake, but hey it is what it is… Roll on

I think Rihanna’s “Pour It Up” video featuring Joseline Hernandez should have got her this award alone… 🙂
You better Stan for Real Talent MTV!!! They also said, Beyonce has proved time and time again that she is the standard to which all other performers must measure up. #8/24
