When she performed Ring The Alarm at the VMAs I remeber her being the most talked performer of the night. Yeah, cuz she ripped off Britney's AMA performance. btw Britney has a concert on the 12th but after that she doesn't have one until the 18th, so she can make it. Oh and please let me know when MTV does a special of Beyonce just because shes going to say a few words on the opening.Maybe when Beyoncé get addicted on drugs, attack paparazzi with an umbrella and shave her head. Quite an achievement, truly.

I hope MTV does a proper tribute to MJ as the BET awards were kind of lame. I respect that they tried, but they should have had Justin Timberlake, Usher, and Chris Brown perform an MJ tribute. They are the best there is when it comes to doing MJ songs. BET announced that Chris was supposed to perform,but he never did. Weird. This wasn't supposed to be about Chris Brown, but a tribute to MJ. So I personally was fine with Chris being there as he kicked butt on MJ performances in the past.
I really hope Britney does not perform. It will just be lip syncing as usual. Sorry. Does nothing for me.
There are much better female artists to showcase like Beyonce, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, etc.

Umm no.
All of these are better (i.e. more entertaining) then Rihanna's Disturbia "performances". Hell that ball alone at the "Star Academy" performance has more charisma and vitality on stage then Rihanna does.

I don't see why you have such disdain for Rihanna; she's basically a Britney clone aside from the dancing (aka relies mainly on image, producers/writers and damn catchy pop tunes to be successful) and recently being more successful. Never mind I think I just answered my own question.

I think Rihanna is a good live performer. I never understood why people bashed on her for it. Britney, in her prime, was probably better, but I haven't seen a recent performance that blows away Rihanna. Including the ones B. Monroe posted. I guess it is a difference of opinion.
Lady Gaga would probably shred them all-she is on her damn game for this era.

Never mind I think I just answered my own question. I actually don't hate Rihanna. I just don't think she's as big a deal as everyone proclaims her to be. She's not a great live performer, her songs aren't as great as they are hyped up to be on this board and there is nothing really all that interesting about her. She doesn't have much if any charisma at all. Her vocal performances even in terms of attitude or emotion are uninteresting and robotic, etc. She really is just there. She doesn't dance. Her performing style is weak especially when you take into account that she just can't handle singing live due to the fact that she just isn't a technically advanced singer. Bottom line she's boring. As to Rihanna doing "better" then Britney outside of radio play and a couple more albums GGGB sold over Circus how exactly is she doing better then Britney? If I remember correctly Britney is the one with the sold out tour, the eight most successful female artist in U.S. history, the one who took home the most money last year, etc.

How was it that the AMAs kicked their butts last year? AMAs have always been 2nd tier, but that was THE SHOW last year.
Maybe they should do like 20 performances and present like 5 awards every year, because honestly, it's more entertaining that way.
