arguably its the only one we're talking about today

Because it won Most Iconic Performance when barely anyone remembers it, not because it was iconic.

I wish there was a way to punish MTV 

[ImMatt 1,582]

If the award was "panel voted" like the Grammys or Oscars, I'd understand. But "fan voted"???!? Yeah. That's fraudulent.

LOL shows you how fake these awards are.  She “won” because she was already there.  That’s it.  Honest to God I had no idea she ever even performed that song on the VMA’s.  And also, Katy is simply not an “iconic” performer.  She can record great pop songs, but perform?  No.  
 

The only possible winner of this category is Madonna, Britney and Christina.  Maybe even Like and Virgin.  Gaga would be next.

I feel so bad for Katy, she decreased even on the day of the VMAs. She actually got better streams the day before the VMAs. 

 

Spotify Daily —Top Artists Global (09/11):

#17 (=) Lady Gaga *peak #15*

#79 (-2) Katy Perry *peak #43*

This is so sad, like I wouldnt even accept it if I was her, and I would pull a Kanye moment on myself! She doesnt even deserve the nomination!

I do feel kind of bad for chill nostalgic Katy fans who were just looking forward to a Vanguard performance and then they get this mess  and they have the whole messy era ahead of them still

Spotify starts tracking day at 00:00 UTC, VMAs started at 00:00 UTC. there is no VMAs effect on charts yet.

This wasn’t even the most iconic performance that year.
