Last night music’s heavy hitters walked a white carpet and of course Lady Gaga didn’t disappoint with her notorious penchant for wearing the oddest garb. However, Taylor Swift managed to steal the show again this year with her song about the Kanye West debacle that overshadowed last year’s MTV VMAs.

Taylor, standing barefoot on an all black stage, belted out her song ‘Still an Innocent’ that was written in response to West and his ridiculous ego. Kanye also performed at the 2010 MTV VMAs. Clad in an all red suit he played pranced around with some ballerinas on a white stage singing ‘Runaway’ which is being tossed around as ‘Toast for the Douchebags.’

Eminem also took the stage post bout in rehab and laid down two songs from his new album ‘Recovery.” Em, in his black jacket and hooded, stomped around the stage pleasing the crowd with ‘Not Afraid.’ Rihanna and her Ronald McDonald red hair joined Eminem on stage to sing the crowd favorite ‘Love the Way You Lie.’

The entire show was tame and lacked any real ‘shock’ factor that usually follows with tales of douchebaggery, celebs saying/doing naughty things or Eminem getting a face full of Borat’s rump. Even Lindsay Lohan making a debut after being jailed for being a drunken ho and rehabbed for being a crack Snorlax didn’t really wow anyone.

Lady Gaga, who took home 8 accolades, and her meat dress tried to make you clutch your pearls, but we have already seen this cold cut couture on the cover of Vogue (Japan). Gaga also announced the name of her upcoming album after winning Video of the Year for ‘Bad Romance.’
