    @YEABEY HATES KELLY’S FLOP STANS!

    I would never watch the View! Just a bunch of ladies arguing about the media! BUT I CANT MISS Beyoncé!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  4. Lolita July 28, 2011

    Ew, what the f*** is the blonde haired d*** looking f***** doing performing?!

    Are they really stooping so low that they would go into the deepest part of the n**** infested projects to get a performer?

    They should have Rihanna perform, that would be the best performance of this century, but she’s too good for the FMA’s.

    (F for Flop)

    And don’t get me started on fatwhore Adele. Hopefully old ass Beyonce isn’t there.

  5. YeaBey HATES KELLY’S FLOP STANS! July 28, 2011

    @LOLITA
    If you have a problem with somebody text them and tell them so, If you don’t have their number then obviously they did nothing for you to hate them for because YOU do NOT know them…

    Chris Brown the blonde n**** will continue to do well in his comeback effort
    Adele and her “weight” will continue to sell albums and Break records
    Beyonce the QUEEN will continue to leave you pressed….and its funny because those people who you don’t want to perform, everyone else that is important wants them too…NON MUTHA F***** FACTOR

    @IT’S ALL GOOD!!!
    I KNOW RIGHT? im staring at the TV like -___________- waiting for QUEEN BEYONCE to perform!!

  6. Underrated psychic (queenbey) July 28, 2011

    I am so happy for Chris Brown…….his talent will not go unnotice anymore!!

  7. THATGAGA&BEYJUICE.NET (ISTANN4GAGA) July 28, 2011

    Lolita,take your hatin’ a*** off the post then…

    Chris Brown is alright BUT if neither Gaga nor Beyonce is going to perform then I am just not going to even bother with a snoozefest.

  40. lola July 28, 2011

    Lolita, shut the f*** up b**ch! You have some nerve calling him a f***** when you’re all on his d*ck. Face it, the slutty, untalented, goat sounding Rowhorna didn’t get nominated or a damn invite but more famous stars like Gaga and Beyonce did!

    I am soooooooooooooo thrilled to hear this! Finally, Chris can perform at mainstream award shows and that stank Ronlad McDonald w**** won’t be there! He should definitely perform Next 2 U with Justin Beiber and some other songs of his.

  41. Malibu Barbie July 28, 2011

    @LOL beyonce was on the view? is she still on it now??? did she perform???!! smhhh

  42. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 28, 2011

    YEEEEEESSSSS CHRIS!I’m so happy that he is re-entering the mainstream media (now it’s the perfect time to stop acting like a hoodrat on twitter).He needs to bring it though.His BET awards was great, but his VMAs performance needs to be MUCH more than just great!
    It’s cool that Adele is going to perform too to give a different flavour to the show.
    Now Lil’Wayne getting mainstream coverage like that is the most tragic thing to happen in the music industry since Macarena becoming a smash.Sigh

  43. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) July 28, 2011

  44. Queen Beyonce Stann July 28, 2011

    Yes For Breezy:)!!

    The Only Announcements Worth Waiting For Now Are The Trinities!

  47. Blue Kid July 28, 2011

    I’m happy for Chris Brown and the haters always coming on here hating with nothing constructive. Shows you how immature some fans are.

  48. VA STAND UP!! July 28, 2011

    Yaaaaaassssss! I am so happy for Breezy, even though I totally saw this coming! Not surprised at all! MTV know what’s up! CB brings in ratings & he is one of the hottest acts out right now! It makes perfect sense! Now I truly have a reason to watch! Lol!

    I like Adele and all, but I just know she is gonna perform ‘Rolling in the Deep’ and I am BEYOND sick of that song! Ugh! It is played to death on the radio! Ugh!

    Hopefully Lil Wayne will FINALLY perform LAMN with Chris, but I am sure he’ll perform hs own song too.

    I hope Beyonce performs too, that will be the more reason for me to watch! I’m mad I missed her on the View!! *sad face*

  49. MELODY July 28, 2011

    This is the best gift Teambrezzy has gotten from the U.S media in a long time. I so happy today. Teambrezzy make sure you are voting like there no tomorrow for look at me now and Big Sean My Last. This is the best news of the day for me. Teambrezzy 4 life.

    Oh look at the pressed R****** stans!! LMAO! F****** hyprocrites! I find it interesting & quite hilarious how now all of a sudden the VMA’s ain’t s*** since your girl ain’t nominated and now ya’ll don’t want to watch! Before ya’ll were praising the ‘white’ award shows and saying they were the only ones that counted, and clowned the BET Awards! But I guess since R****** didn’t get any solo nominations this year, and HOPEFULLY won’t even show up, ya’ll are gonna boycott the show?! Ok then……

    I don’t get why ya’ll are so pressed! Didn’t she perform at damn near EVERY award show last year? The VMA’s, Billboard, Grammy’s, etc.! Her ass was EVERYWHERE! We couldn’t get a break from her! Now that we finally are ya’ll want to B****! STFU & STFD!

  51. i&i(yardie) July 28, 2011

    YESS for a breezy performance! I do hope that if he is going to perform “look at me now” he works on the fast rap part some more. The previous performances of that song were painful to watch. Bring his A-game like you used to. That me say!!!

  52. SOBEBOI July 28, 2011

    KELLY ROWLAND NEEDS TO BE ON THAT VMA STAGE PERFORMING…#thatisall

  53. kody3x July 28, 2011

    yall already know im happy as hell just found out leggo chris brown cant wait

  54. Team Beaty July 28, 2011

    Yeaaasss Beatys performing. The hero to all the ignorant h*** and hoodrats!
    I cant wait to see how well he can lipsync this time, hes just got soo much talent.

    Hes a great role model for future thugs, whores, and spoiled brats. Ill make sure my kids are watching so they can see that if they dance hard, can barley sing and throw tantrums they can be a successful singer. F education, if you cry punch and kick you will eventually get your way.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

    —————————————————————————————-

    Um…what post did you read?! Drake, Nicki & Rihanna HAVEN’T been named as performers and Wayne, Adele & Chris sure as hell haven’t been dominating award shows! Hell Wayne’s ass has been locked up for a damn year! When is the last time Adele has performed at an Award Show?!?! I’ll wait….

    I seriously CANNOT with people acting like Breezy, of all people, has been over exposed at Award shows! Really?! Are ya’ll fuckng kidding me?! Chris hasn’t performd at the to the VMA’s in THREE YEARS and this will only be his SECOND performance at an Award show this year! That boy has been sitting out damn near every award show for two yeras (besides the BET Awards) and now that he’s back to performing again at the mainstream ones ya’ll want to act like he has been everywhere! GTFOH!!!

    If there are any people who are over exposed at these shows it would be Rihanna, Eminem, Usher & Justin Bieber! They are the ones who were ran into the ground last year! Hopefully they will all be sitting out this year!

    Half the people complaining know damn well they are gonna be watching and will probably be one of the FIRST to comment & b**** on a blog after the show is over!

  56. Queen Beyonce Stann July 28, 2011

    I Don’t Care About Adele But Good For Breezy 🙂
    The Only Announcement I’m Waiting For Are For BEYONCE (Of Course), Britney, & Gaga The Trinity.
    & Whoever Said Kelly Should Be Up On That Stage, H** These Are The VMA’s Not EBT 😉

    ——————————————————————————–

    Exactly!!! I was happy he was asked to perform but at the same time I was thinking he is really gonna have to BRING IT!! The BET performance was good but the VMA”s is a broader audience & since it has been so long since he performed there he has a lot to prove!

    His performance back in 2007 was epic & it went down as one of his best performances in his career! It is gonna be hard to top that! I’m sure he is gonna perform “LAMN’ (which IMO isn’t the best performance song because of all the rapping) and possibly ‘She Ain’t You’ really hope he & his dancers come up with something different and not what we have seen at the BET Awards or the same choreograhy from the videos! We need some fresh new ish!

  59. MISHKA July 28, 2011

    Adele: No brainer, she’s the big winner.

    Lil’ Wayne: I want to hate this mofo but he’s just good at what he does. Too damn good.

    Chris Brown: Hallelu! I hope it’ll look more like his DWTS gig than the BET one.

    I’m just waiting for The-Queen-Who-Runs-The-World, her hubby and Kanye announcements.

    Nobody cares of Red Grating Hood, she should call Taylor Swift that night and both would have a singing competition.

  60. Karinaaa July 28, 2011

    this years nominations were bull…
    I’m only watchin Chris Brown perform…

  61. noodles July 28, 2011

    Yay Chris!

    Lol at people saying “same old people performing” ummm…if anything Drake, Emeniem, Rihanna, Katy Perry,etc. are same old typical performers but yo have got to be kidding me. How often does Chris go to Award shows? Or even Adele..Lil Wayne hasnt been around alot either lol so what a poor excuse. Oh and to those saying they won’t be watching no one gives a f*** ya’ll just mad your fave probably wasn’t nominated and they won’t be there to give a stiff performance. I love how Award shows aren’t s*** or a mess suddenly when actually these 3 people usually deliever something good but if they announced the same old stiff boring people it wouldnt be a mess right? Smh. Lol. Some of you are something else. Acting as if your opinion matters.Obviously your stiff fave isn’t important to the vma this year get over it. So much for Chris only being able to slay the BET awards right? LMAO!

  62. plain & simple July 28, 2011

    This is Breezy’s year. I am so happy for him.

  63. MusicFan July 28, 2011

    Tell me King B ain’t killed that s***. She did that!!! You could tell Sherri is a stan!! Haha.

    I’m only here for Beyonce and Gaga being announced.

    Adele is good, no chairs b**** please. Chris, I expect dancing and nice effects with backup dancers and stuff. Lil Wayne, typical bland rap performance walking around the stage and dumb looking “gangsta” pose at the end of it.

  64. Paige July 28, 2011

    I might be the HAPPIEST girl on earth!!!!!
    CHRIS BROWN is performing YES YES YES…. I literally can’t wait until Aus. 28th
    He better show everybody what they been missing and that TALENT 🙂

  65. Real July 28, 2011

    Yesssss, Go Chris Brown. I will be glue to the TV.

  66. kody3x July 28, 2011

    we already know breezy is going to have the best perfromance of the night and i hope its SOMETHING CRAZY LIKE THE 2007 AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS WHEN HE WAS IN THE AIR BACKWARDS ALOT OF PEOPLE DONT REMEMBER THAT epic

  67. King Makers July 28, 2011

    holup!

    whats this nonsense about “KING B” who is KING B? you do understand that Beyonce is female and as such can NEVER be king?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No kings yet, except the heir to the throne Breezy but it will still take a bit more time for the world to accept defeat and crown the DAMN boy.

    just going down memory lane for a minute

    Is this not the kid that a lot of you hypocrites said will NEVER rise again? the same kid you all laughed at? a kid you said will never sell a record or see a big stage again back in 2009 up till the beginning of 2011?

    Isn’t he the golden kid breaking records these days?=> there is a big lesson in everything! God decides everyone’s destiny, not you or them.

    If you are wondering why you keep failing and Breezy keeps winning its because you don’t have God on your side=> Breezy does, just like Samson in the Bible who was forgiven by God and was empower 3x more to defeat all his enemies even though they’ve blinded him

    Its not about the 1#s, its not about the album sales, its not about the awards or performances, its about that VICTORY that comes with every move, every smile and every step he makes from now onwards.

    I am very happy because every hater, every hypocrite, every racist, every feminist, every moron and ignoramus has one way or the other contributed to his success and thats how God orchestrates things

  68. mobwife July 28, 2011

    Yeah 3X!….CHRIS & ADELE will be performing! I completely missed this post! I am so happy to hear this. Get it Chris!

    LOL at the Rihanna shade! Didn;t she perform last yr? I didn’t bother to watch it as a fact I don’t think I have seen the VMAs in quite a few years! Oh well, I’m just glad CHRIS BREEZY BROWN will be blessing the stage….yeeha! 🙂

  69. mobwife July 28, 2011

    Yeah 3X my avatar is back! 🙂

    @VA STAND UP!!

    You just said it all! Ppl are just bitter because their fav, who is really overexposed will not be performing! I’m just happy to see Chris and Adele perform on the same show! Everyone else I have either seen many times or don’t care to see at all!

  72. X,Y,”and Z” July 28, 2011

    (Prodigal Son returns.. And now, ‘all is right’ with the world!)

    Who is T-H-E most exciting, most energetic performer; BAR NONE?

    Who can singlehandedly take command of ANY stage he sets feet on?

    Who is T-H-E best dancer – BAR NONE – currently in the game?

    Who brings the most charm, the most swagger to ANY stage, or before any camera?

    Who draws record-setting audiences, live(in person) or via broadcast?

    Who is now the ONLY ‘rightful heir’ to MJ’s throne?

    Who has more swagger than even BEFORE Feb 8th, 2009?

    #1 “Takers” as its Executive Producer and the actor with THE longest-continuous screen time of any actor in that NOW over $87-Million Sony/SG movie?
    #1 “F.A.M.E” (F*** ALL MY ENEMIES) CD. Now closing-in on Platinum Certification.
    #1 Season-High Neilsen ratings SNL performance/appearance.
    #1 Viewer record-setting DWTS appearance/performance.
    #1 Attendance record-setting Today Show appearance/performance.

    The first shall be last, and THE LAST SHALL BE FIRST..

    X,Y,”and Z”

    P.S. – Breezy, call your lawyers: Draya is doing L.A. Basketball wives. Nothing good can become of that..

  73. NO HATER BUT I LOVE BEYONCEEEEEEEE July 28, 2011

    BEYONCE BETTER PERFORM FOR THE VMA’S I KNOW THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NO ONE CAN KILL IT LIKE KINGB!!!!

  74. nice_gurl July 28, 2011

    Good lineup so far. But Lil Wayne should definitely perform How To Love. And I am waiting to hear whether Beyonce, Jay , Kanye West are performing. They might perform Lift Off together. That would be epic, cause from that little snippet of the song on the documentary, it sounds like such a good song.

  75. KingBreezy July 29, 2011

    lol
