Diddy Scolds Peers

Sean “Beady Eyes and unfortunate Teeth” was at his best at a BET Awards party. He and others were at the LA club MyHouse and ‘Man in the Mirror’ was spinning. He didn’t like that folks seemed to be having a goodtime so he stopped the song and said, “While you guys are talking and laughing, you’re not hearing his words. You’re not listening to his words. I need you to hear what he’s saying! Listen to the message that he is telling us.”
Then he turned the song up and shouted over the music, “Michael, I hear your words — I hear what you’re saying!” Source
He was either drunk as a skunk or high out of his mind. Sir please sit down!

Random Pics: Fugly Oscars Edition

Looks like she’s going to her quincenera and her madre made this dress out of some curtains she bought from the bodega down the street. How was this a good idea? Give me some satin sheets and I could whip this up with a stapler and some paper clips.
This looks like the Barbie Holiday dress circa 1998.
When bad wigs happen to good people…
Oh wait, I spoke too soon. Just when I thought Vanessa had the award for best Quincenera dress….

M.I.A. Post

M.I.A. performed at the Grammys Sunday (February 8, 2009), which also happened to be her due date. Word is that she began having contractions as soon as the show started to air.
"She went into contractions when the show went on the air -- and she was not supposed to go on until Act 8 (as the eighth act). I asked her to just hang on until 10 p.m. ET. The kid's a gamer," said Jack Sussman, a CBS exec.(Watch the performance here)Source
Well if she was having contractions she surely didn’t show it.

In Other M.I.A. News…
M.I.A. gave birth to a baby boy on Thursday (February 12, 2009). This is the first baby for M.I.A. (nee Maya Arulpragasm) and her fiancé, Benjamin Bronfman.
Hoipefully M.I.A will be welcoming another addition, a nOscar for her song “O…Saya” that’s featured in “Slumdog Millionaire.” Source
Congrats all around!

Grammy Awards 2009

I missed the red carpet cus I was eating, and finishing my hair and working on other Mani posts and watching Sister Act II…what? It’s a damn good movie. Anyhow, I tried to do a live blog but then my computer decided to act a fool. Thus, why I’m posting today. Please forgive any spelling/grammatical errors as I'm editing this loooong post on my lunch break before I rush back into the fields to pick some more cotton.

I’d like to note that all of my pics are via mtvnews.com. Ok, on with the show!

U2 open the show with “Put your Boots On.”

I have nothing more to say besides I really hate Bono.

Whitney presents Best R&B Album. Sidebar…she sounds REALLY off.
Eric benet-Love & Life
Boyz II Men: Mothown-A Journey Through Hitsville USA
Al Green-Lay it Down
Jennifer Hudson-Jennifer Hudson
Raphael Saadiq-The Way I See It

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, uncomfortably rambles through the show’s horrible writing, only to introduce JT who does the same. JT then introduces and joins Al Green, Boyz II Men and Keith Urban on stage to perform “Let’s Stay Together”. It’s a falsetto mess.
Simon baker introduces Coldplay to perform “Lost.”
But its only Chris Martin for half the song then Jay-Z walks up to add his rap..then back to Chris. Where’s the rest of the band? Oh wait, here they are. Chris joins them to perform “Viva la Vida.”
They have on these bright colored jackets…they look like a pack of tropical skittles. Watching Chris dance makes me nervous. I feel like he’s going to hurt himself or someone else.

Carrie Underwood performs. Brewer and Jordan are wondering if they’re going to give out anymore awards…it is an awards show afterall.

I’m peeping Carrie’s legs and doing squats and lunges in admiriation.

Cheryl Crow and Leanne Rhymes come to present the Best Country Duo or Group Performance.
Brooks and Dunn-God Must be Busy
Lady Antebellum-Love Don’t Live Here
Rascal Flatts-Everyaday
The Steel Drivers-Blue Side of the Mountain
Sugarland-Stay

Duffy and Al Green present Song of the Year.
American boy
Chasing Pavements
I’m Yours
Love Song
Viva La vida

Kid Rock performs “All Summer Long.”

Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus perform “Fifteen.” Taylor sounds ok but Miley…I guess I’ve never heard her sing before and I’ve got to say her singing voice is as annoying as her speaking voice.

Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals (I don’t know who presented…I had to potty)
Alicia Keys John Mayer-Lesson Learned
Madona, Justin Timberlake & Timbaland-4 minutes
Robert Plant Alison krauss-Rich Woman
Rihanna & Maroon 5-If I Never See Your Face Again
Jordin Sparks & Chris Brown-No Air

Jennifer Hudson performs “You Pulled me Through”

She makes it all the way to the end of the song before she gets teary. God bless her for getting out of bed everyday. I don’t think I’d have the strength.

Emily Proctor and Jason Mraz introduce Jonas Brothers and Stevie Wonder performing “Burnin’ Up”.
The one with the straight hair is doing this awkward dance, hip thrust, gyrate thing. I’m concerned. I also feel dirty.
Stevie jumps in to sing a verse. I’m deeply saddened that an American legend has to sing back up for these snot nose pip squeaks. It’s Stevie’s turn to sing “Superstiscious”. For some reason the children are allowed to sing along. This is not ok. Lo says no thank you.

Blink 182 announces they’re reuniting before presenting the award for Best Rock Album. Coldplay-Viva la Vida
Kid Rock-Rock N Roll Jesus
Kings of Leon-Only by the Night
Matallica-Death Magnetic
The Recontours-Consolers of the Lonely

Craig Ferguson introduces Katy Perry who performs “I Kissed a Girl”. She comes down on stage in a giant banana. There are other giant fruits all over the stage and she’s dressed like Chiquita banana herself. Her back up dancers, who I’m assuming she picked up at a community talent show, are dressed in white pant suits and hats. As Katy jumps all over the stage, slipping a few times (thank god for flats), her dancers are stripping.
Goodbye hats!
Goodbye jackets!
When will they take off their pants? When do the shirts come off? SHOW US YOUR TITS! Sorry I’m bored. It’s finally over. Praise Jah!

Kanye and Estelle perform “American Boy” next. They look like extras from The Wiz. Black people shouldn’t wear too many shiny things or bright colors. A wise woman once said, “Bright colors are for children and whores!”
Anyway, when they’re done, they present the award for Best New Artist. Kanye makes sure to let people know that neither he nor Estelle won the award.
Adele
Duffy
Jonas Brothers
Lady Antebellum
Jazmine Sullivan

Morgan Freeman introduces Kenny Chesney. I don’t know what he sang…I took this opportunity to grab a few more dumplings to munch on.

Diddy, Herbie Hancock and Natalie Cole present Record of the Year.
Adele-Chasing Pavements
Coldplay-Viva la Vida
Leona Lewis-Bleeding Love
M.I.A.-Paper Planes
Robert Plant Alison Krause-Please Read this Letter

Queen Latifah introduces Jay-Z, Kanye West, T.I. and Lil’ Wayne featuring M.I.A performing “Swagga Like Us.” Yes, M.I.A. actually showed up even though she’s due today. And she’s wearing a very M.I.A. outfit…I think I see the baby waving from in between her legs.
It’s hard to pay attention to anyone on stage because I’m mystified by her energy…the mere fact that she’s even standing up amazes me.

Kate Beckensale introduces Dave Grohl and Paul McCartney who perform “I Saw Her Standing There.”

Jack Black and someone present Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
Kid rock-All Summer Long
John Mayer-Stay
Paul McCartney-That Was Me
Jason Mraz-I’m Yours
Neyo-Closer
James Taylor-Wichita Linamn

Jay Mohr and LL Cool J introduce Sugarland who perform “Stay” and Adele who performs “Chasing Pavements.” Me love Adele…and I’ve never heard of Sugarland, nor do I particularly like country, but they were pretty good.

Gwenyth Paltrow introduces Radiohead performing “15 Steps” I believe the lead singer is having a seizure…but I must say I enjoyed every bit of his epileptic fit.

Samuel L. Jackson introduces T.I. and Justin Timberlake who perform “Dead and Gone.”
The Recording Academy prez, Neil Portnow comes out and talks about God know’s what for way too long. Then he introduces Smokey Robinson who present the Lifetime Achievement Award to the Four Tops. The sole remaining member, Duke Fakir, performs with Smokey, Neyo and Jamie Foxx. They do a medley of “Reach Out”, “Standing in the Shadows of Love” and “Sugar Pie Honey Bunch”. Loved every bit of it!

Josh Grobin introduces Neil Diamond. There’s something about this dude I love. I bet he still has the power to make panties fall to the ground. Not mine of course…but someone’s.

Time for the rest in peace montage. The last person to be recognized is Bo Diddley and on stage is B.B. King, John Mayer, Keith Urban and another gentleman whom I don’t know. They all perform a Bo Diddley Song.

Lil Wayne feat. Robin Thicke perform “Tie My Hands.”

Wayne introduces zydeco/jazz artists Allan Toussant, the Dirty Dozen and Terrence Blanchard. Makes me want to go visit daddy for Mardi Gras. Well technically I wouldn’t be visiting the GRD…I’d be engaging in debauchery all over the French Quarter. But I’m sure I’d at least call or something.

will.i.am and T-Pain present the award for Best Rap Album
Jay-z American Gangster
Lil’ Wayne-Tha Carter III
Lupe Fiasco-The Cool
Nas-Nas
T.I.-Paper Trail
Wayne brings his whole family up on stage but at least he keeps it short and simple.

Zooey Deshenel introduces Robert Plant and Alison Krause who perform “Rich Woman.”

Green Day present Album of the Year
Coldplay-Viva la Vida
Lil Wayne-Tha Carter III
Neyo-Year of the Gentleman
Robert Plant and Alison Krause-Raising Sand
Radiohead-In Rainbows

Maybe if I’d ever heard of this album I’d be more excited. Robert Plan drones on so long they start playing the music on him.
The closing performance is Stevie Wonder. And this time (thankfully) those dreadful little boys aren’t with him.
Well congrats to all the winners.

M.I.A. to Give Birth Live on Stage

M.I.A. will be performing at the Grammy’s despite being due on the same day. She’ll be onstage with Jay-Z, Kanye, T.I, and Lil’ Wayne doing “Swagga Like Us”. Source
Um, I like the girl but this is NOT a good idea. The thought of the baby dropping out during the performance whilst backup dancers stomp around horrifies me. M.I.A, honey, please stay home.

Kim is Honored she got a Razzie Nomination

Kim Kardashian is honored about her Razzie nom for her role in “Disaster Movie”.
“I had so much fun filming Disaster Movie and giggled the entire time during the shoot. “There is steep competition in my “worst supporting actress” category, I have to admit... including my fantastic costar Carmen Electra (you go girl!), Leelee Sobieski (what a surprise!), Jenny McCarthy (really?) and Paris Hilton (who could technically sweep this year's awards with a whopping three nominations!).”“It's an honor just being nominated! LOL! “XOXO, “Kim

How gracious of her. I mean it’s not like she’s gonna EVER win an Oscar.

Bey Gets Golden Globe Nod

Bey has been nominated for a Golden Globe for her song “Once in a Lifetime” from “Cadillac Records”. Source
Phew! When I first heard about this I thought maybe it was for her acting. And then I was going to have to quit the Golden Globes just like I quit the Oscars for giving Halle an award for that shiteous performance. “Make me feewl guuuhd!” indeed.

Fight Breaks Out at Bama Awards Show

A fight broke out between at Radio One’s fourth annual Dirty Awards last week when Shawty Lo remixed Yung LA’s Song “Ain’t I” into a diss version called “Don’t I”
While Shawty Lo was performing, a Capitol recording artist named Alfamega threw a chair onto the stage. Yung LA and Big Kuntry rushed the stage and started punching. The cops were able to break up the fight and escort those hoodlums outta there. Source
I’m sorry but, who the hell are these people?

Why Katt Didn't Host the BET Hip Hop Awards...

The 2008 BET Hip Hop Awards were this past weekend in Atlanta and comedian Katt Williams was supposed to host them but was replaced at the last minute by T-Pain. According to Freddy O this is what happened:
Being Mr. Nosy, I overheard a conversation during the rehearsal that Katt might not be performing. Come to find out, ALL of that was true. Why didn’t Williams perform? Well from my understanding, he and one of the top execs for the show got into it because of his lack of preparation for the show and him not liking the set. It is said that in rehearsal he was two hours late, completely unprofessional and one of his managers tried to start an altercation with the person in charge of the show! Blows were about to be thrown!!!
Apparently, Katt wasn’t stressing and didn’t consider the gig a win or lost. Allegedly, he was only receiving a little over 60 stacks plus ample gifts and endorsements for his services. But BET had something for him, just as soon as he was wasn’t there, he was replaced by somebody who some say was a much better host.

BET.COM , however is saying that Katt lost out on a bet with T-Pain and that’s why he didn’t host.
“So we were all hanging out last night and Katt bets T-Pain couldn’t beat him in a break dance battle. Not knowing T-Pain was an extremely DOPE break dancer, Katt thought it was an easy win. T-Pain said if I win, I get to host the Hip Hop Awards,” said Stephen Hill. Source
See what happens when Negroes get too much money? The start thinkin’ they’re above $hit. He shoulda slapped on his black face and tapped danced his way across that BET stage.

Siriano to Design for the Emmys

Project Runway winner, Christian Siriano is creating a gown for the Emmys. He’s been selected to design a dress for one of the women that will be acting as a trophy girl and handing over the Emmy statues to winners.
"It has been so inspiring watching the Emmys every year to see who is going to be the most fabulous diva at the show. ... It will be such an experience seeing my own creation on stage," he said in a statement.
The 60th Primetime Emmy Awards are set to air Sept. 21 on ABC. Source
How humble of him…with all the work he’s been doing lately I’d expect one of his designs to be on a presenter or nominee, no?

2008 MTV Video Music Awards (***Live Blog***)

I'm live blogging tonight and I'll upload pics and vids manana...enjoy!

Opening Act (Red Carpet)

8:00 VJ Tim Kash chats it up with Lauren Conrad...something about her makes me want to take a nap. VJ Kim Stolz talks to Idol reject Taylor Swift who's acting as the fashion correspondent...I don't know why. She has on some gold Vegas number with what I can only assume are her black dusty church shoes.

8:08 Tokio Hotel arrives in a monster truck looking like some wacky contrived farce of a rock band.

8:14 Katy Perry and Miley Cyrus show up together...interesting. T-Pain shows up seconds later dressed in his ringleader garb atop an elephant...wearing a t-pain chain...and accompanied by some ghetto fab circus folk. I guess I can be thankful there are no midgets. Thank you Jesus...thank you very much...OH WAIT! THERE GOES ONE! Sorry Lord...I'mma have to take that back.

8:18 Taylor interviews Pink and sounds like a complete idiot. Can someone let me know when she'll be back on screen? I need to avoid her at all costs.
8:26 Taylor is talking again...this time to Katy and Miley. All three are Nominated for "Best New Artist". I want to like Katy's vintage look...but her 50s inspired hot pants/granny pantie short shorts make me feel uncomfortable...actually they should make her feel uncomfortable.
8:28 VJ John Norris interviews Kid Rock and Michael Phelps who' sporting a sorta 5 o'clock shadow and some shades. I think he's trying to be cool. Let's not tell him he failed...don't wanna steal his thunder.

8:34 Kabba Modern of America's Best Dance Crew fame performs to Ne-Yo's Closer. Then Fannie Pack performs to Damage by Danity Kane. The two are competing in some online vote in contest. I LOVES me some Fanny pack. If you ask me they should have won on the show..but whatevs.

8:43 Tim talked to Xtina who, although she was extra blond at least her makeup was toned down. Well played honey...well played.
8:45 Taylor talked to the Jonas brothers...one of them is wearing a white sateen suit. It's hurting my eyes and my tummy. Jael (my 8-year-old niece) sweetheart, which one of these boys should I be writing an angry yet loving letter too? I can't tell them apart.
8:50 Taylor interviews Ashlee Simpson whom she keeps referring to as "VERY PREGNANT". Um, Taylor, you idiot, it's hard enough being pregnant without your skinny ass calling attention to her bursting belly. Tim chats with Kobe Bryant who came with his always silent...always pursed lipped mouth.


8:58 Tim talks to Paris and that Madden boy. Her purse looks like she bought it at Kohl's. LMAO!


It's SHOWTIME!

9:00 Brit and Jonah Hill (SuperBad) do this weird skit about taking away her nerves where he keeps trying to kiss her. Then when she comes to the stage live she speeds through her lines and gets the hell outta there before she could eff anything up.

Rihanna comes out and performs her hit "Disturbia" looking hot and got and metal and dark and I love it...all of it. Leather, chains, fishnets, feathers, and a stage full of possessed/demented dancers. This girl knows how to do a performance.

9:08 Russell Brand comes out to start his hosting gig...I still have no idea who this guy is. More importantly, how the hell did he get into those pants. In his opening he goes the political route...I gave him 2 full minutes (which is a lot) to make me laugh...but he didn't so I stopped paying attention and just stared at his tight pants in hopes of seeing one of his testicles rupture under the pressure.

9:15 Jamie fox is here to present the first award. Thank God...no more 'Nut Strangler'. Phew!
Best Female Video Britney Spears "Piece of Me", Katy Perry "I Kissed a Girl", Rihanna "Take a Bow", Jordin Sparks "No Air", Mariah Carey "Touch My Body". The winner is? Britney! She graciously accepts her award thanking her fam and she doesn't eff up! Woot!


9:27 Demi Moore presents Best Male Video: Chris Brown "With You", Florida "Low", T.I. "No Matter What", Usher "Love in this Club", Lil Wayne "Lollipop". The winner is? Chris Brown. I don't know who he thanked cus I can't look at him without being irritated by the large lower region of his face. Thank God he kept is short.


9:30 Taylor Swift introduces the Jonas Brothers...They perform "Lovebug" on a stoop that reminds me of the 227 stoop...Brewer asks if they're on Sesaeme Street...either way, it doesn't work for me..I think I'll take this moment to make a drink.

9:35 Katy Pery starts singing Madonna's "Like a Virgin" then it cuts to commercial...then it comes back with her singing her song "I Kissed a Girl"...why don't we get to see both performances the whole way through? Maybe because she started peeling the banana on her outfit...uncomfortable
"Like a Virgin"

"I Kissed a Girl"

9:41 Michael "Heavy Tongue" Phelps comes out to introduce Lil Wayne, featuring Leona Lewis and T-Pain. He walks all the way down the stairs grabbing at his penis...sigh...I'll ignore it cus I like this song. I must say that I don't like this venue at all... it doesn't allow for fans to surround the stage and go crazy...just a bunch of stiff artists sitting in the audience staring confused at the wild back monkeys jumping around on the stage. The performance is pretty dynamic though. I can actually feel the heat eliminating from under T-Pain's leather military jacket...I can smell the funk coming out of there as well.


9:46 Linsay Lohan and Ciara present the winner of the VMA Dance Battle and my faves Fannie Pack win. Woot! They also present for Best Dancing in a Video: Ne-Yo "Closer", Madonna "4 Minutes", Chris Brown "Forever", Danity Kane "Damaged", Pussycat Dolls "When I Grow Up". The winner is?Pussycat Dolls. They're dressed in evening wear. It looks weird. Take off the chiffon. SHOW US YOUR TITS!


9:55 Danity Kane tabulates text votes for Best New Artist Award and then the Stars of the new Twilight Movie announce Rock band Paramore playing over at the Whiskey. ...I've never heard of them...And I'm a little concerned that the young lady fronting the band is going to hurt herself. Medic! Man down!


10:05 Slash and Shia Lebouf present for Best Rock Video: Fall Out Boy "Beat It", Foo Fighters "The Pretender", Linkin Park "Shadow of the Day", Paramore "CrushCrushCrush", and Slipknot "Psychosocial". The winner is? Linkin Park

10:10 Miley Cyrus introduces Pink who performs "So What". I love pink. I told Jordan if I ever met her I'd be scared she'd kick my ass...then eat it. Yet and still, she's one of my faves.


10:20 We come back from the commercial to the Ting Tings per forming...

Then Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz encourage folks to vote for the Best New Artist...and they did so in a most annoying way.


10:23 Slipknot and McLovin present the Best Hip-Hop Video: Lil Wayne "Lil Wayne", Lupe Fiasco "Superstar", Flo-rida "Low", "Mary J. Blige "Just Fine", Kanye West "Homecoming". The winner is? Lil Wayne...Well at least i cant see his drawls.


10:25 T.I. performs "Whatever You Like"...when he's done the director of the "video shoot" yells cut and they cut to Rihanna who is performing "Live Your Life" while her boo-boo Chris Brown sings along from the crowd. She's wearing some skintight pants and a crop leather jacket...no shirt. But if I looked like Rihanna I'd avoid clothing at all costs. T.I. meets her on stage to join her for his featured rhyme.
"Whatever You Like"

"Live Your Life"

10:36 The cast of High School Musical present Christina Aguilera who's performing "Superbitch". She looks like catwoman...except with a little more whore mixed in. I spy a cameltoe and pelvic thrusting, which, if you ask me, is a recipe for disaster...namely an infection.


10:43 Chase Crawford (Gossip Girls) and Lauren Conrad (The Hills) Present the Best New Artist Award: Miley Cyrus "7 Things", Katy Perry "I Kissed a Girl", Jordin Sparks "No Air", Tokio Hotel "Ready Set Go", Taylor Swift "Teardrops in my Guitar". And the winner is? Tokio Hotel

10:49 We come back from commercial with LL performing "Going back to Cali". Surprisingly...and to my disappointment he actually has his shirt on.



10:51 Paris Hilton joins Russel to present Best Pop Video: Jonis Brothers "Burnin' Up", Britney Spears "Peace of Me", Tokio Hotel "Ready, Set, Go", Danity Kane "Damaged", Panic at the Disco "Nine in the Afternoon". The winner is? Britney Spears! Win #2 of three noms. And we head to commercial with Lupe fiasco performing "Superstar".

10:59 Disney's Drake and Josh introduce Kid Rock to perform "Rock 'N Roll Jesus/All Summer Long" with Lil Wayne. I don't know these songs and I'm indifferent about Kid Rock so yea...moving right along.



11:09 Kobe Bryant presents the Video of the Year: Chris Brown "Forever", Jonas Brothers "Burnin' Up", Pussycat Dolls "When I Grow Up", Britney Spears "Piece of Me", and The Ting Tings "Shut Up and Let Me Go". The winner is? Britney! Lorda mercy (insert carribean accent at will). Russell and Britney ride off into the sunset on a golf cart as Kanye begins performing "Love Lockdown". All I can hope is that at some point in the song he stop s performing to have a full blown tantrum because he lost for Hip-Hop Video. Lord knows he likes to lose his shit everytime he doesn't win. At least if he goes crazy taht'll make the past three hours worth while..but alas, NADA! I need another drink...excuse me.
