I don’t even consider the ASIB videos as REAL music videos, those videos are basically just clips from the movie - which actually kinda sucks because I’d rather see the actual full performances from the film rather than with a bunch of clips cut in-between them (instead of just watching the ACTUAL film lol).

Side note: could you guys imagine if we actually had REAL music videos from Ally? I would’ve loved to see videos for the pop songs especially WDYDT?..... :( 

I agree.  And yes, I would love to see those videos.

But first, award Christina and Gaga first. 

I'm like some kind of supernova

This is highly subjective, but I wasn't very inspired by the videos for John Wayne, Million Reasons, Stupid Love, and the videos made from ASIB.  I kinda liked Love Game, You and I, and Beautiful Dirty Rich.  The other MVs were totally amazing, so she could win the Vanguard on the strength of those, imo.

Ah I gotcha. I’d agree. John Wayne has nice elements but I was mostly impartial to it. I think if they’d done a telephone treatment it would have worked better where they filled more story into it. It’s solid but not quite on the same level as her best imo. So I see where you’re coming from. Stupid Love...I saw the Apple promo photos and wished it was shot like that.

I’ve been seeing a lot of negativity surrounding Gaga lately, especially with the Chromatica delay and all that, but this is where I cross the line. Y’all know damn well that Gaga’s videos are FAR more deserving of the MTV Video Vanguard Award. The delusion...

I'm not sure what drives the people who decide the Vanguard.  Here is an example of eye candy without much art.  Basically, just Katy standing there, but it is moving and touches the heart.  So will Katy's eye candy videos stand up against Gaga's very artistic videos, for the Vanguard?

Katy just makes pretty and forgettable videos........there isn't one that like instantly stands out... they don't really make an impact

But let's keep up with "it's campy and it meant to look cheap" narrative.. it makes some people feels good as i see

Who kept the narrative though? Not I. I guess it makes some people feel good to thrash on SL while talking endlessly about ‘oRiGinAl lG5’ :billie:

Does it matter? Damage is done

I mean, I can understand why people are saying Gaga's videography is better than Katy's... but this? :messga:

I was trying to make a point about ‘budget =/= good’ and a bigger artistic underlying theme vs. eye candy videos which can often be surface level depth. And I do think Taylor has better videos than Katy. However, Katy vs. Taylor is an even bigger debate so let’s just leave it at this. :huntyga:

At the end of the day, I sincerely do enjoy and love Katy and her music, and I wish her the best. Just tired of some people in here hiding behind a female artist to indirectly drag or disrespect Gaga. I’m done with this topic honesty. I’m out. Stream Stupid Love and Never Worn White. :heart:

Oh absolutey, Katy has always slayed with visuals

but at the same time Poker Face and Bad Romance's videos are more iconic than any of her videos

Completely disagree. Gaga has some of the best videos of all time. Bad Romance alone should win her the award.

Thank you for this brilliant post. It’s nice to see someone with intelligence around here. Bad romance is a ****ing masterpiece- KP could never touch. Even GAGAS more recent stuff like applause that video was so magical “VISUALS”

Teenage Dream and Prism were really solid albums... and Teenage Dream was a super solid era for her all around, imo.

No opinion about vanguard, though, just wanted to say that.
