2013 was the peak of the VMA's

[musicnotbling 1,692]

I feel 2013 really was the peak of the VMA's. With Gaga's performance of Applause, Miley with We Can't Stop etc.

That was the last fun year of the VMA's. The last wild year, one to really remember. Now everything is just boring and auto-tuned. Lil Uzi Vert with XOXO tour life was absolute garbage, the auto-tune was terribly unbearable. Ed Sheeran performing his extremely overrated, overplayed Shape Of You? 

It's just boring now. It was too political ---- had too much of a SJW vibe to it. It was annoying and cringy. 

Nicki Minaj forgetting her verses?

Like cmon now, where did the fun go? I miss the old years. It's all just going by too fast. It's just basic entertainment now. It's not glitzy or glamorous like it once was. It's just bland. 

 

---I also have to add that everything basically sounds the same now...there's really no more variation. Have we run out of creativity?

I said what I had to say.

maybe those were the last great years, but 2013 was a good one. one to remember obviously.

Agreed.Current VMA's suck

[Fame IV 4,426]

The problem last night was the little star power.

Miley's performance spurred nothing but controversy  it wasn't actually fun it was trashy  the only good thing that happened that year was Gags saving the ratings by opening

2009 were the last good VMAs. But the VMAs between 2005 and 2008 were bad too. I mean in 2010 we got a lot of awards for Gaga, but besides Gaga what do you remember? in 2007 we got Britney's iconic Gimme More performance, but what else was there? 2009 for the first time felt like a true VMA show, but afterwards it went downhill again. The best VMAs for me were the one from the late 1990s and the early 2000s. Although my favourite VMA show was the one from 2009. I literally don't know any video that won or was nominated after 2012

Apart from Kendrick Lamar, there were no stars.

I would usually include Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran onto the list but they did mediocre last night.

alls i know is i might not remember specifics of the vmas from previous years, but i can remember that i was not bored while watching. i remember i was always entertained by the vmas. whether there was controversy or not, such as miley's 2013 vma performance.

i'll take the controversy over boring anyday. that really was an era.

There are ways to spur controversy without being trashy  Take notes from Ms Petty Swift 

[FRANK1991 3,329]

any year's great as long as Gaga is performing

 

but Fifth Harmony and P!ink are great this year too 

[Original Diva 4,966]

Pink and miley saved the night tbh... the rest was absolute dog shite... i cant see the vmas going anywhere in future if it goes on like this. how did we get to this point?

[insight 2,438]

VMA's peak was in the 90s: 1990, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1997, 1998, 1999.

Go educate yourselves!

We need Gaga to come back and revive this event.
