How was it watching abra like 4 times?  I can’t decide if I’d be in heaven or tired of hearing it 

For the recording she only the first verse and chorus of Abra. Then it cut, tend reset…so it again. 

Then there was a 5 or so minute break and they picked up with dead dance and did the whole song twice.

The VMA's currently reward popularity or just the fact that the artist is attending the ceremony lol. DWAS was the obvious choice for the big categories. 
And their example makes complete sense, I don’t know what you’re not understanding. It’s not about which is better, it’s about which videos is more popular, and DWAS is the one with +1B views.

No, it's not about which video is more popular. In that case, K-Pop MVs would win every single year.

What I'm saying is imo it wouldn't matter whether Gaga's team submitted DWAS or Abracadabra. The outcome would probably be the same (like you said, the winners are usually very random and often dependent on whether the artist is attending the show).

Hence, Gaga's team should have submitted the best video from the era and the one with the biggest cultural impact, rather than the video that made more numbers. Or, rather, they could have submitted both music videos (similar scenario to Bad Romance + Telephone in 2010).

I'm sure most LMs would prefer to see Abracadabra nominated over DWAS.

And, no, your example doesn't make sense. You can't convince me 911 is comparable to Abracadabra in terms of success and impact.

Don't you think maybe they are the same thing? Love and attention?

Guessing gaga hasn’t turned up yet?

She will probably be the last person (as usual), and the show starts in 2 hours.

I'm guessing we'll have to wait +1 hour for the red carpet appearance.
