Edit: Now that I found this version I remember the reason they did these shots. It was the first time the VMAs were held at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City.

Hers was cute as hell

The cute costumes, and hats... The pyramids, and that pyramid of twinkies! :dies: so cute. Definitely Katy for me, it was just more creative I think. And the flaming hot cheetos part :smh:

Out of those three, I'd say Madonna. Gaga's just wearing an Egyptian-esque headpiece, I don't think she was really going for an entire Egyptian theme, the Dark Horse video remains complete **** besides the scene where she's laying on the rocks, so Madonna wins.

Katy Perry's look actually looks egyptian. Plus, the theme is more explicitly explored with the use of Lapis and specific iconography like the cobra hoods, etc.. 

 

Madonna's.... doesn't. It doesn't scream Egyptian to me.. it seems more vague. It doesn't seem particularly culture specific. 

 

Gaga's look is more... sci-fi / futuristic / Stargate SG-1 meets Versace to me... It doesn't seem meaningfully authentic to Egypt either... 

 

But then... none of them Walked Like an Egyptian...

I think as a theme, things like Egyption and Greek just seem overdone and tacky. That is why I am so glad that gaga didn't take the Aphrodite thing too literally and put her own spin on it (unlike Kylie).

that's not Egyptian... it's more Grecian inspired. Nice look, too.
