      i have to admit when gaga first came on the scene i ddnt really like her music and the outfits were jus odd,but i actually started listening to her and realized that thats just her and that makes her cool thats shes outside the box! and last night had to be my favorite that ive seen from her that was a hott number and the blood at the end was just another example of how unique she is!! im lovin Gaga!!



    5. 805

      Maybe it's really her style. You can't blame her. Everyone's going GaGa for her. So let's just respect her decisions. Either way, she is A M A Z I N G !

      lady gaga very much deserved the BEST NEW ARTIST AWARD… she is an artist, great preformer, she is real, she is a great singer, she got class, she is a strong woman that has come to us to IMPROVE n CHANGE pop culture…. SHE IS THE BEST NEW THING and shows stupid close minded people that a woman can b strong, sexy, talented etc… she shows people that gay people are cool and accepts em how they are which is how it should be.. she is the kind of artist i expect to b the same DOES NOT MATTER how many copies she sells, how many millions she got….lady gaga s a queen and should not b compared to anyone because every single artist is different… lady gaga is unique WHAT MOST ARTIST SHOULD BE….



    8. 808

      Of course its artistic! Everything GaGa does is artistic, its corky and wierd which is exactly what is so special about her. GaGa OWNS 2009…. shes just fabolous!



    9. 809

      SHESS SO WEIRD BUT I LOVEE HERRR SHES NOT LYKE ANYONE ELSEE SHES ALWAYS DIFFERENT



    10. 810

      i loved it. keep doin it like you do it GaGa!



    11. 811

      Very disturbing at the end.

      812

      I think Perez and Lady Gaga make a good couple! Go Perez!



    13. 813

      This was awesome. Comparative to Madonnas Like a Virgin or Vogue. This girl is Fierce!!!



    14. 814

      great performance. she is a performance artist at all times. pink was boring imo…



    15. 815

      I loved it, it was AWESOME!! She rocks! Totally different refreshing and new!



    16. 816

      I am the first to admit I don't always "get" her statements but I applaud her for making them. Seriously when was the last time a performer took real unique artistic chances and also enjoyed widespread commercial success? There are other artists who are true artists, like Bjork and Tori Amos, but its nice to see her having commercial success too, not just a cult following like most avant garde performers. It also is a great message to aspiring performers that you can stay true to your artistic vision and still be popular and still be well received.



    17. 817

      haha shes a wierd bitch but i love her



    18. 818

      Her performance was wonderful. It was weird and beautiful. The choreography was great, and the live performance used the same principle as the video without being just an onstage performance of the music video. Very well done.



    19. 819

      LOVE HER!!!



    20. 820

      she's fantastic! she's like the club kids from the 80's! she dresses like a transvestite but an actual female! she's tit the shit and the balls. the the bestttt



    21. 821

      Did she smear her menstral flow all over herself?



    22. 822

      artsy farsty as hell… LOVE IT! defo a first!



    23. 823

      I have to laugh bc it was the first time my husband and son had seen Lady Gaga perform live. She's not really their cup of tea….but they were literally riveted to the screen. I think I heard their jaws drop…..and the only thing they could say after was….Wow. Whether you love her or hate her…the one thing we can agree on is….you can't stop watching her. That's called a performer!!! And boy does she perform!!!



    24. 824

      She is a very weird lady. lol. I don't enjoy this song, but I'm not going to say that her performance was too much. In the real video, doesn't she kill her boyfriend at the end? So, I'm guessing in the performance she was supposed to hang herself. It wasn't over done. I think she did a good job, it was just a little off the wall and weird. lol.



    25. 825

      She is a performance artist. If you go to NY its in the galleries and onstage in the theater. She has just taken it to the music world and a lot of people who have never seen or know what performance art is don't understand or get her. I think sometimes her message or what she is trying to accomplish in her art is lost to the audience and that might be why people lash out at her. She is very avant garde and her style of performance is not for everyone.



    26. 826

      she looks like a used tampon :( but her body looks fierce



    27. 827

      song was good but the performance was too creepy for me..



    28. 828

      I LOVED IT!!!! I LOVE GA GA!!! She is so AMAZING and a true artist.



    29. 829

      We get it all ready! She doesn't want to be cookie cutter. I did have to laugh when she couldn't talk through that red lace garb she had on here face. :) She unlike Kayne is talented and doesn't NEED to draw attention to herself.



    30. 830

      OH MMMMMMMMY GAGA GAGA GAGA! WOW! ♥



    31. 831

      Asinine. Simply asinine. True talent doesn't need to rely on such endless schtick.

    32. Bambi says – reply to this


      832

      ILOVE HER!!!!!!!! WAY TO SAY FUCK YOU MTV LOVEEEESSSSIT!!!!



    33. 833

      I found the end pretty disturbing, I liked what she was doing before that though.



    34. 834

      Madonna Barcelona GO AWAY!

      ..

      Never did Madonna in her performances come out drenched in blood and being smashed by a chandlier and then hang herself, just leave.

      .
      She had the SECOND most successful tour behind the Rolling Stones, and she made the most money last years AS AN ENTERTAINER.
      And just because she thanked the gays doesn't mean no one else can! THOUSANDS HAVE DONE IT BEFORE.

      .
      Like Young Taurus said, there people more talented than she is and Lady Gaga killed it last night and YOU know that otherwise you wouldn't be blowing this shit up with your bad grammar.



    35. 835

      ALWAYS AMAZING!!!!



    36. 836

      that was some hot shit at the end. she has great dead eyes.



    37. 837

      sorry dont get her….like her songs, but shes is a little strange? dont get it at all!



    38. 838

      She was sooooo amazing. I love her. She has been my favorite artitst since she came out. She's so original and so talented.



    39. 839

      Its beginning to become pathetic how hard she tries.



    40. 840

      unique



    41. 841

      i love her own ways



    42. 842

      Was the blood an ode to Princess Diana? That's what came to mind for me.



    43. 843

      This bitch is nuts. Haha. I enjoy SOME of her music if I'm at a bar but beyond that, she's a trainwreck. Sad part about it though is that the girl CAN sing. She's got one hell of a voice. Now if she'd stop trying so damn hard to be "different" & stand out (a clear cry for attention) maybe people would notice that. I can't stand people that shove their over the top lifestyles in your face. If that's how you REALLY are, shouldn't it come a bit more natural than wearing red lace over your entire face or a birds nest surrounding it? FREAK-SHOW!



    44. 844

      Try innapropriate, trying too hard.



    45. 845

      I am in love with Gaga!!!!! She is amazing!! Her performance was super fierce!!! If ya'll listened to the song you would understand!!!! Her fashions were also super fabulous!!!! All of her crazy things she wore were designed by her friends whom she is helping out w/her famousness!!!!! I also lover her acceptance speech!!!! She thanked god and the gays!!!!!!! I love her!!



    46. 846

      I thought it was absolutely amazing! I wanted to see it again to make sure I saw it right! Lady Gaga is so artistic. I would love to go to one of her concerts. My husband thought it was too weird, but he is very conservative. Plus he sees blood every day at work so perhaps he associated it with work? It was great to see you Perez cheering for GaGa! Adorable and you looked quite handsome. Furthermore, I just have to say this: anyone who thinks lady GaGa is a hermaphrodite is just plain stupid. I can't believe people make up that kind of gossip. Lady Gaga is a woman and a beautiful one at that!

      847

      I don't know why people are saying it was right for TV. There was a time when MTV was sort of cutting edge and rebellious before they became a reality TV network. They never pretended to be family TV. Good for Gaga for bringing back that rebellious spirit.



    48. 848

      "She" is getting way too fat & thick. F'ing fat ass tranny!



    49. 849

      That photo just looks like she's had a terribly menstrual accident!!!!



    50. 850

      FAMEWHORING AT ITS BEST/WORST. UGH, what a filthy fool!



    51. 851

      that was crazy and disturbing. i thought started getting weird when she started playing the piano, like really, just get out.



    52. 852

      I WILL LOVE GAGA UNTIL THE DAY I DIE. WORSHIP.



    53. 853

      Re: pipster – You sure your husband's straight, straight, straight??? LMAO!



    54. 854

      Whoever said Gag-Ga looks looks like a tampon gets the 'post of the day' award! Haaa She not only looks like a bloody tampon, she IS a bloody tampon!



    55. 855

      she is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! I love her—— The New Queen of POP



    56. 856

      BYE BYE STUPID BRITNEY!! JEJEJEJE



    57. 857

      she was awesome, people who didn't like it just don't know what true art is, they probably listen to Kanye's crappy music



    58. 858

      I think it was stunning and I'm always amazed at how she makes each performance a little bit different or amps up her songs each time. She's the only CD I've actually purchased in the last year and I think she'd be the only artist I'd pay to see in concert. She's taking risks, not asking for praise, and being what the industry was originally about: Art and Entertainment. For me, she's my last hope for Hollywood.



    59. 859

      such a great performer love her and she deserve to win best video of the year MORE than beyonce.



    60. 860

      puke



    61. 861

      I'm not a Gaga shipper but that was AMAZING. Loved it!



    62. 862

      I EFFING LOVED IT!!!!!!!!! So artistic and amazing, everything you said Perez! I'm now a fan of the Lady.



    63. 863

      It was Beautifully Done!!! Kuddos to Gaga for being so Unique and bringing a breath of fresh air to the VMA's and music culture in general!!



    64. 864

      SO overated!!!!!



    65. 865

      artistic????? how about FREAK!!!!!! and please dont compare her to the legendary Cher. hopefully this freakshow's 15 minutes are almost up!!



    66. 866

      EURGH!! LOOKS LIKE SHE HAS SMEARED HER PERIOD/MENSTRUATION BLOOD ALL OVER HER SELF. MUST GO AND VOMIT!!



    67. 867

      GaGa's a good entertainer. I liked it ..



    68. 868

      Did she get her period while hanging upside down or something? Ô_ô

      869

      I loveeedddd ittt!!!!!!!!!



    70. 870

      Awesome! I love her!



    71. 871

      Lady GaGa is extremely overrated. Shes really not that great..and what the h is she trying to prove/say with the way she dresses?! Half the time she really looks like a freak.



    72. 872

      she is kind of weir but i still love her!

      it was funny when she said: this is for god and the gays hahaha



    73. 873

      perfect awesome crazy amazeballs



    74. 874

      When Christina Aguileira started her career, she wore outrageous outfits & did a lot of this "performance" type stage antics to make a name for herself. When she finally decided to "be herself" her music got a lot better & she acquired a wider audience - who simply appreciate her for her amazing talent. I hope Lady Gaga thinks about scaling back the outrageous outfits & lip synched performances, and focuses more on the music, singing live - which we'd all gladly pay to hear. These lip synched concerts (Brittany, Pink, Madonna, Ashlee Simpson, Lady Gaga) are so expensive - and you don't even get live music. What's that about?



    75. 875

      Artistic? Are you f"ing kidding me? She needs shot. Perez get your head out of her ass.



    76. 876

      i love her she has a voice of an angle but that was just a little weird last night



    77. 877

      just plain weird



    78. 878

      anyone else think that she looks like a used tampon?



    79. 879

      fabulous and creepy!!!!



    80. 880

      I did not like it at all i would think mtv would not even let her do that



    81. 881

      she's so original… crazy… i love heeeer!



    82. 882

      i thought her performance was AMAZING to say the least. it was entertaining and extremely interesting and very artistic, i didnt take my eyes off the screen for even a second. who would have thought of something like that? she had and i think it turned out absolutely amazing. i love her even more now.



    83. 883

      sHE LOOKS LIKE MISS PIGGY ON CRACK…I LOVE HER VIDEOS BUT THIS WAS HILARRRRRIIIOUSSSSSSSS



    84. 884

      Fierce



    85. 885

      The performance was fine until the gruesome, violent end. It's only artistic if you like crap, which clearly you do. And I'm still confused on exactly what makes this gay or why people seem to think the word bitch is complementary.

      886

      GaGa Ruled last night. Love her.



    87. 887

      Never really saw her until last night. Great performance…wierd outfits…the blood was a little much but I still think she rocked it! I am now a Lady Gaga fan! Woot Woot!



    88. 888

      I think she's really weird, but I like her more for it. She's like Bowie or Madonna with the crazy outfits and unique sound. I thought the blood was her way of making a statement about the paparazzi's dangerous effects on stars. Just seemed to me like maybe their bloodlust was her inspiration. I don't know. Regardless, it was great. She's weird, has a pretty voice, great body seems to be a talented musician (i.e. the piano). I say lay off. Lots of artists these days suck. I'm a fan of hers and it's a little more and more everytime I see her on something. Red lace outfit was kinda scary, though. It was fine without the mask. I'd rather wear something totally fucked up like that than wear an awesome studded leather dress and risk having someone else wear it to the same party (e.g. Pink and Shakira).



    89. 889

      LOVE IT



    90. 890

      loved it



    91. 891

      i loved it!! finally a performer!!!!



    92. 892

      loved it .. we dont have many musicians who perform anymore.. it was great!



    93. 893

      it is a true performance. I love that she is taking performance to a new level and her visions are so extravagant! She makes them come true and gives us a fucking SHOW. My favorite thing about her is that - all of her is in her performance. Her face was just stiff and dead at the end. That is talent and brilliance to the very end.



    94. 894

      how dare you put a question mark after the word artistic

    95. eekO! says – reply to this


      895

      Until recently.. I have avoided all things Lady Gaga… I saw her as just being a cheaper version of Dale Bozzio and marketing it as her own.. But I truly listened to her lyrics and took a look into some of her performances and this woman is truly in a league of her own.. She's ridiculously talented.. more specifically artistic.. and wonderfully entertaining.. Her performance last night really spoke to me.. It was sad,chilling,breath-taking.. and yet astonishingly sexy!



    96. 896

      i would say.. bizarre and absolutely out of style.



    97. 897

      AWESOME!!! Awe inspiring and thought provoking. She killed it!! The Madonna fans need to stop hating and get on board.



    98. 898

      THe most impressive thing about her performance was how wonderful she can sing live! I loved it, and her, i mean she's a crazy bitch, but its a crazy you gotta love :)



    99. 899

      it looks like she pulled out a period all over her body.. that just gross!!!



    100. 900

      to much ? u think ? WTF,,,,this is just weird…..
