MTV VMA’s 2009 Winners List, Photos and Videos

September 14, 2009 By Cara Harrington Leave a Comment

After wasting over 2 hours of my life on the nuttery that was last night’s 2009 MTV VMA’s I bring you the highlights.

First Kanye West gave us all further proof he is a bumbling moron with no class. The “rapper” stormed the stage to take the mic away from Best Female video Winner Taylor Swift to announce that Beyonce should have won. From this moment on the show was tense and awkward. As did tried mentioned West’s name the crowd booed and began chanting Swift’s name.

The only one highlight in the show was the revealing of the extended “New Moon” trailer. It leaked to the net a few days before the show aired, but at least it was actually a decent trailer.

Lady Gaga also killed herself on stage as if things were weird enough. The bloody mess followed the Swift/West debacle so it was a bit overshadowed, but odd non the less.

Madonna also gave a speech clearly read from a teleprompter in honor of Michael Jackson.

Kanye West Kicked Out of VMA’s, Pink Attacked Him, Beyonce Gives Taylor Her Spotlight Back – Video

[Beyonce Calls Taylor Swift Back to the MTV VMA Stage to Give Her Speech - Video]

This is so ridiculous I had to devote an entire post to it. We have all heard that Kanye West crashed the stage after Taylor Swift won the award for Best Female Video. He literally took the mic from her hands to brown nose to Beyonce. (Click HERE to see the Video of Kanye West Stealing Taylor Swift’s VMA Win Speech) The stunned teen was clearly upset after he announced Beyonce should have won but left the stage with grace. Once she was in the cover of the backstage area, she and her mother were crying.

Pink, who I now adore even more, literally tried to attack West. His security escorted her away. I am glad to see Pink being her fiery self. Had I been there I would have gotten a sock full of quarters and scrapped with her. Kanye was then asked to leave the 2009 MTV VMA’s at was asked to leave Radio City Music Hall. From that point on, every time his name was mentioned boos and jeering rained down.

Later Beyonce won the Video of the Year award and gave up her acceptance speech to Taylor. B said that she still remembers when she was 17 and up for her award with Destiny’s Child. The “Single Ladies” singer then asked for Swift to come out and have her moment. Now that is class.

He has since issued an apology, in all capital letters as he is complete idiot and easily outsmarted by caps lock button, and in it said “WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD.” This isn’t the first time he threw a temper tantrum like a child. In 2004 he put on a display of his immaturity and stated he was robbed of the Best New Artist nod at the American Music Awards. Again at the 2006 MTV Europe Music Awards in Denmark he stormed the stage and announced that he should have won again because his video for “Touch the Sky” cost a million dollars and had Pamela Anderson in it. (There was a million dollars wasted.)

Hmmm…is it just me or is his track record just full of “should have won” songs? But, I think that Katy Perry has summed it up properly with her Tweet following the incident along with other celebs showing support of Swift.

Katy Perry: F*CK U KANYE. IT’S LIKE U STEPPED 0N A KITTEN.

Pink: Kanye west is the biggest piece of sh*t on earth. Quote me.

John Mayer: Big love to my girl @taylorswift13. A class act.

Adam Lambert: Kanye needs to chill. He freaks out every year. It ain’t that deep man.

Cheers to that.

Kanye West Interrupts Taylor Swift VMA Win with His Douche Baggery – Video

September 13, 2009 By Cara Harrington 4 Comments

I make it no secret that I find Kanye West a disgusting human being and that is sad coming from a blogger. However, I feel no remorse in anything negative I have ever sad about him. After showing up to the 2009 MTV VMA’s carrying a bottle of Hennessy (literally) he stormed the stage during the award for Best Female Video after Taylor Swift beat out Beyonce.

West interrupted her acceptance speech to announce “Beyonce’s video was the best video of the year!” A horrified Taylor was left speechless and a crowd booed Kanye. So far, the rest of the evening was a pity fest for her and I genuinely feel terrible for her.

I wish Pink would have won that way when he tried to storm the stage she would have cut the bitch and done us all a favor. I know I probably sound like a kindergarten teacher who moonlights as a waitress at Hooters, but he should be ashamed of himself. You can have all the talent in the world, but when you are that classless it doesn’t matter.

Megan Fox Porn Imminent

September 13, 2009 By Cara Harrington 2 Comments

According to the crew of “Transformers,” Megan Fox is better off a porn star. In a scathing letter the “Loyal Transformers Crew” fired back at the actress, they call her “dumb as rock” and called her acting “cringe-able.”

“When facing the press, Megan is the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star. And yes we’ve had the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set, and yes, it’s very cringe-able. So maybe, being a porn star in the future might be a good career option. But make-up beware, she has a paragraph tattooed to her backside (probably due her rotten childhood) easily another 45 minutes in the chair!”

The irate crew felt compelled to call out Fox after she equated Michael Bay to Hitler in an interview with Wonderland magazine. The infamous and respected director has many loyal friends in the biz and was a terrible move on her part to bite the hand that feeds her. Bay literally pulled her from the trailer park and put her career into motion, the letter points out.

“So when the three of us caught wind of Ms Fox, pontificating yet again in some publication (like she actually has something interesting to say) blabbing her trash mouth about a director whom we three have grown to really like. She compared working with Michael, to “working with Hitler”. We actually don’t think she knows who Hitler is by the way. But we wondered how she doesn’t realize what a disgusting, fully uneducated comment this was? Well, here let’s get some facts straight.”

The letter was posted to Michael Bay’s website, but has since been removed and the site temporarily down. The full letter is after the cut do to it’s length, but totally worth the read!

Egads. I guess she would be better off a porn star. She has the rare talent of screwing herself by opening her mouth.

Penelope Cruz Smoking While Pregnant Photos

September 11, 2009 By Cara Harrington Leave a Comment

Penelope Cruz is currenty rumored to be a few months pregnant. (Click here to see Penelope Cruz Baby Bump Photos) Reps for the actress refuse to confirm or deny the starlet is with child, but she was photographed smoking with her bestie, Salma Hayek on Wednesday.

Let’s hope that she is not pregnant and she is just enjoying a cig with her sistas. Otherwise she is going to give birth to Katherine Heigl.

Kathy Griffin Sticks It To Jon and Kate Via Jimmy Kimmel -Video

September 11, 2009 By Crista Webster Leave a Comment

Kathy Griffin is mah boo. 4-Eva. I am getting her name tattooed on my backside right after I post this. It will be the greatest tramp stamp ever!

Kat was on Jimmy Kimmel the other night being a famewhore. That’s another thing I heart about her–she’s honest. She loves the paps, wants the paps to take her picture, does guys (like Levi Johnston) on purpose to cause a stir–and admits it’s all for press. She isn’t one of these, “Please, give me my privacy,” rags that sends her maid out to buy US Weekly to see if she knocked Jennifer Aniston off the cover. Kathy will cut someone to get that cover. Then, she’ll set up shop at the Piggly Wiggly and sign autographs before her court date. I. Love. Her.

Anyway, Kathy was on Kimmel and took an opportunity to stick it to those d’bags Jon and Kate Gosselin.

This video is HILARIOUS. Love it! And so do the fine folks over at D-Listed.

Via D-Listed:

“I’ll always have love in my loins for Kathy, but I think they should’ve dropped a possum wig on Predator and had him play Kate. It would’ve been more realistic. Kathy is obviously more of an Aunt Jodi than a Kate.”

Is it me, or is George Takei missing something? Ah, no Ed Hardy shirt. Kills the whole scene.

Ellen DeGeneres Sued!

September 11, 2009 By Holly Stafford 1 Comment

Oh the travesty! Talk show queen Ellen DeGeneres & her talk show’s producers for “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” are being sued for the use of music during the “dance over” segment at the beginning of each show, where Ellen dances through the audience to some music having a good time interacting with everyone and it’s so hilarious and even I laugh. But the record companies don’t find it to be too funny – because they weren’t paid their licensing fees!

Per Huffington Post:

“As sophisticated consumers of music, Defendants knew full well that, regardless of the way they rolled, under the Copyright Act, and under state law for the pre-1972 recordings, they needed a license to use the sound recordings lawfully,” the suit states.

Plaintiffs include Arista Music, Atlantic Recording Corp., Capitol Records, Motown Record Company, Sony Music Entertainment, Virgin Records America and Warner Bros. Records. Typically, Ellen’s show plays less than 30 seconds of a song and it can be argued that it falls under fair use. Ellen’s people say they didn’t “roll that way,” on licensing, but they seriously need to come up with a better defense on that one!

Ellen’s show has been on the air for 6 years, so why are the record companies just now filing a suit?

Quoteables:

Evil Beat Gossip: “I’ll tell you what’s funny, though — no one would have reported on this story if Ellen hadn’t been named the fourth Idol judge this week. Success is a bitch.”

Gawker - “Here we thought the music industry was about bringing happiness into an otherwise dismal existence. Now we learn they’re only about profits. The horror!”

Ashlee Simpson, Pete Wentz Combat Divorce Rumors – Photos

September 11, 2009 By Cara Harrington Leave a Comment

Yesterday Star Magazine ran with a story that Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson were getting a divorce and Ash had kicked cheaty Pete out of the house. (Click here to read that entire article.) After the story hit photos of the Wentz/Simpson clan surfaced.

Ashlee, Pete and Bronx all hit the park to play. The family smiled and seemed to be enjoying themselves except for a few pics of Pete. I would like to point out that yesterday I found Star’s story vague and hard to believe, today I find it even more oozing of crap. Perhaps I am being fooled by a display of unity or maybe I have watched too many back episodes of Captian Kangaroo this morning. What? Don’t even pretend you didn’t love that shiz.

Caster Semenya is a Girl…and a Boy!

September 11, 2009 By Crista Webster 1 Comment

Sports really isn’t our thing, but we are all over stories about hermaphrodites.

Caster Semenya has been making headlines since the South African won a victory in the 800-meter during the world championships. Many people began to question whether or not Semenya was really a women due to her broad shoulders, deep voice, lack of lady lumps, and handlebar mustache…ok, she shaved.

Turns out those inquiring minds were on to something. After being forced to take a gender test by The International Association of Athletics Federations, it turns out that Semenya is both a girl and a boy.

Via New York Daily News:

“The 18-year-old South African champ has no womb or ovaries and her testosterone levels are more than three times higher than those of a normal female, according to reports…Semenya could be stripped of the gold medal she won in Berlin last month and her competitive future is in limbo, according to Australia’s Daily Telegraph.”

The Federation has also suggested that Semenya have the necessary surgery to fix his…her…its little problem.

Semenya released the following statement:

“God made me the way I am and I accept myself. I am who I am and I’m proud of myself. I don’t want to talk about the tests. I’m not even thinking about them.”

She then grabbed her crotch, spit, and asked what time the game was on.
