IllusionLover 6,815 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Just now, Teletubby said: The Vanguard Award is no longer presented at the VMAs but Foo Fighters will receive the Global Icon Award Oh okay well... It's over. But what do you mean it's no longer presented? They just cancelled it? Like I was expecting to see the pop girls receiving it this decade, like Katy, Gaga Taylor, Ariana... 13 | this is my dancefloor i fought for, your voice is louder, it echoes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This award is now called different, last year it was Tricon Award for Gaga, this year Global Icon Award for Foo Fighters. The full name of Vanguard Award was The Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, after the release of Leaving Neverland in 2019 they decided to no longer present it.

Wait so Tricon was like Gaga's Vanguard? Like that was the honour for her already? I mean I wanted a 15-minute medley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I wanted a 15-minute medley. I honestly think they should figure this out cause I don't think Tricon and Global Icon, and Vanguard are the same. Tricon was to celebrate achievements in three or more areas (In Gaga's case Music, Film, TV Fashion and activism) and global icon sounds more like the impact the music of the artist has had around the world. The Vanguard was basically to celebrate the artist's career and videography as well as impact on the MTV culture. They should come up with something else apart from icon award cause I refuse to believe Gaga's Vanguard moment was just a Chromatica medley with no audience. 13 | this is my dancefloor i fought for, your voice is louder, it echoes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
