In Case You Missed It…

Filed under: Awardz > Lady GaGa

You must CLICK HERE to watch Lady GaGa's electrifying performance of Love Game/Poker Face on the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards.

It was epic!

And, what made it sooooo great was not all the dancers or the pyro or any of the other big elements. What made our Lady's performance so magical was HER. She elevated the show to a whole new level and she brought an intensity - of voice, movement and focus - that we had never seen from her before.

A performance like that doesn't just happen, though. We saw her work and work and work insanely hard on it all weekend, and even before arriving in Toronto.

Hard work pays off!

GaGa's performance was Madonna-caliber! And we know the Queen of Pop would approve of how well the new Princess of Pop did!

    would have been better if she didnt lip synch…that bummed me out!



  2. 102

    Sorry you got beat up,but their is nothing that great about this performance.I was expecting alot more.I guess it means more cause you are obsessed about her.A least Britney Spears has a star essence when she is on stage{even if she is not at her best]and Madonna is Madonna and Gwen Stefani is way better then this.I don't see all the fuss.This years cup of coffee,you made her just like you did Amy Winehouse



  3. 103

    yeah, she's totally lipsyncing. Hard work, whatever.



  4. 104

    FOR ALL THOSE SAYIN SHE IS LYPSINGING CHECK A BETTER VERSION OF THIS ON YOUTUBE . SHE ISNT . ONLY WEN SHE IS DOIN THE FINAL BITS OF DANCING IN WHICH ALL CELEBS EVEN BEYONCE LIPSYNCS . SO LEAVE GAGA ALONE . SHES HOT . N DNT APPLOLOGISE FOR USIN THE F WORD . HE IS .



  5. 105

    Really? Cause it looks like she missed her lipsynch cues a few times! Good choreogaphy though



  6. 106

    I love GaGa….but I completely disagree. It was a good performance, with lots of smoke and mirrors, but clearly she is lip syncing. Within the first minute she didn't have the mic to her mouth and she was singing. Her Dancing With the Stars performance was about 100 times better. They should have just had her on a hands free mic. She still looked great though.



  7. 107

    She was totally Lip singing! And although she and other industry would love to think she is the next Madonna! She is a fad, and she will be out faster than bell bottoms and tid dye! She is interesting, but not long lasting!!!!!



  8. 108

    LADY GAG GAG IS NO MADONNA .



  9. 109

    Re: madonna u are dynamite – wow cant you see that this is a gaga post and not madonna's? damn i dont even like gaga, but you are making me like her. by holding unto madonna's legacy, which is clearly in the past, just like michael jackson's, you are making yourself look insecure. i mean if madonna is really THAT great, no one could top her, even gaga… and you would know that. you wouldn't waste your time writing horrid things about her. but hmmmm gaga is catching up to her, and fast! that is a FACT! (2 #1s in the past year, and counting…) if you can't accept that, go back to your cave and cry with your little madonna poster.
    thank you.



  10. 110

    look I am a fan BUT that was NOT live. that was lipsyncing and good job either. why does she say she won't lipsynch and then do it and so obviously. very disappointing and quite distracting. would be better if she had not made such claims to be honest. such a huge distracion.



  11. 111

    OK, ok… calm down
    u guys are worse than perez!!! you're trying to be just like perez… but on his site.. .. now, THAT should be filed under Sad, Sad, Sad..

    i agreed, she is not quite @ madonna's calibur.. lets wait for a couple more albums and see where she's at.

    BUT regardless.. she is an epic performer… and she has sworn to the world she wont' compromise a good show for lip syncing.. I love
    people think Britney is a queen, the best, thee shit… morelike thee shits…

    Love Gaga, and i'm so jelous i couldn't be there!



  12. 112

    What…she promised she would never lip sinc….wow. No respect for her anymore.

  13. Niobe says – reply to this


    113

    Hummmm? I thought she was too much of an "artiste" to lip sinc? do not spit up on the air, it might just land you you!!!! Oh and Madonna? not even to her pinky toe! Madonna is someone that I have been watching and loving since I was a little kid…..I am sure that my son will not remember who lady GAG (on purpose) is!



  14. 114

    Re: imsoregistered – maybe you should get your damn ears checked then .. because if you've actually heard the original songs you can tell its live dumbass



  15. 115

    Re: Sonbi2 – you know people are just doing what the bitch would say to do to others if this happened. So he is just getting a taste of his own medicine from his previous directions.



  16. 116

    ahahahahahahahahahahahaha

    Prepackaged gimmick pop music of today is not my thing. I understand why people like it, and that's fine, for what it is, but she is not the next big thing that's going to transform the current musical landscape in the way Nirvana did. The songs are not terrible, but let's keep it in perspective.

    The reason why there will never be another Madonna is because even though there was prepackaged gimmick pop in the 1980's, the music still came first. The songs were better. The radio was still bigger than the TV. Now it's all about your visual stimulation.



  17. 117

    She bites the big one.



  18. 118

    this is not 100% live.. that's fine, but don't say you are always singing live then!



  19. 119

    bummer ! lipsinking ! late with the mike ! oops !



  20. 120

    I like Lady Gaga, but until she stops doing a Milli Vanilli concert you should refrain from ever mentioning her name in the same breath at Madonna. Hell, I'm not even a Madonna fan.

    Perez you really need to lay off the drama and the drugs. They are starting to catch up with you. . .



  21. 121

    Re: PotatoHead – She didnt lipsync. .the video above is slow



  22. 122

    YES, 10 TO 12 YEAR OLD GIRLS AND PEREZ SINGING 'I WANT TO TAKE A RIDE ON YOUR DISCO STICK" REAL CLASSY! SHE IS SUCH AN AWESOME ROLE MODEL FOR TWEEN WANTING TO TURN INTO NASTY SLUTS. NICE GOING BLAH BLAH!



  23. 123

    fabulous



  24. 124

    ok i actually live in Canada and i watched the whole performance LIVE, Lady Gaga actually sang LIVE! She only had a background track for the choruses of BOTH songs, other than that NO LIP SYNCHING! So get off her swag, she did alright during the performance, wasnt that great but i love her(L)



  25. 125

    and you ruined her night by calling will.i.am a slur. Shame on you.



  26. 126

    I think she is lip sinc look at the first minutes you will notice she puts the mic a littl after the lyrics lol anyways it was an amazing performance :)



  27. 127

    Why is everyone comparing her to Madonna like its a good thing? Madonna and Lady Gaga are both horrible.



  28. 128

    just like all her other performances..HORRIBLE! and what happened to "i sing live" hmmm…now both of you stay out of my city!



  29. 129

    OMG OMG OMG LOVE IT



  30. 130

    if you're going to lip sing, at least be good at it…



  31. 131

    Re: madonna u are dynamite – you're worthless, stop making all these accounts just to chirp lady gaga, stop living in the past you can deny it all you want but lady gaga HAS had a positive and creative impact on the pop industry thus propelling her much past her "15 minutes of fame" she is a legend in the making, soooo, S my D and learn how to use propor punctuation ok? :)



  32. 132

    lip sync



  33. 133

    FAIL!
    Mario, get your tongue out of her ass, she was lip syncing the ENTIRE time!

    This is crap! You made this thing out to be the best thing since slice bread… Maybe the BEP attack did more damage to your head that you realized.



  34. 134

    too bad her pyro boobs didn't burn you to a crisp…ive seen other videos of you starting and creating drama, you deserved to be hit and then some….watch your back moron.



  35. 135

    Re: Sonbi2 – fuck off….obviously we hate Perez and want him off the web, hopefully enough feedback will make him realize, he's a douche bag and whiner you must be like him.



  36. 136

    she sucks at lip syncing…. man, at least britney can outdo her on this!



  37. 137

    people saying she's lip synching are morons.
    the whole sound on the video is off
    i watched this live and it was obvious she was singing,
    she's just got a great voice.

    this performance was awesome though



  38. 138

    She sucks andn if her handlers were smart they would make her keep her distance from YOU. It's only a matter of time b4 you knock her off the pedestal you have her on anyway and trash her too, thus resulting in another potential beat down…LOL



  39. 139

    she doesn't lip sync, it's skipping…

    is there a non-skip version out there? i can't seem to find it. i hate the off rhythm dents in the video…



  40. 140

    GAGA IS DEFINITELY MADONNA'S PRODIGY~~Absolutely PERFECT!



  41. 141

    oh. my. god. her lypsynching was terrible!! And hard to believe how a performance where so much is happening can be so boring



  42. 142

    GAGA/PEREZ HATERS…GO AWAY. no one wants you here. gaga and perez kick major ass…and everyone knows it…stick that in your pipe and smoke it…HATEEERRRRRSSSSS.



  43. 143

    something's wrong with this video. it keeps skipping.



  44. 144

    Re: SyddyFace – You should be hung with them then! Retard!

  45. Bre<3 says – reply to this


    145

    i was at the much music video awards and lady gagas performance was amazing. she was def not lipsinking this is just a bad video



  46. 146

    THIS IS ONE NASTY ASS TOAD! She SCHNOZE is gynormous!



  47. 147

    BS! My cats can lip-synch better than that. I can't believe you've been swept up in the hype!



  48. 148

    Wow that was one hell of a boring performance!!! And the firework thing at the end is like something you would see on America's got talent! Perhaps Gaga should look to Britney's performances of 'Overprotected' 'Me against the music' 'Toxic' 'Slave for you' etc. and see how it's really done!

    Same caliber as Madonna my ass! Gaga doesn't come close to Madonna or Britney!!!



  49. 149

    BORING! thank God they hit you! she's not the Princess of Pop

  50. jrnpp says – reply to this


    150

    FANtastic preformance. Love Lady Gaga!



  51. 151

    whoa. was somebody lip singing? or does my computer just lag that bad? hahaa, something i didnt expect from lady gaga(;



  52. 152

    it seems like she's lipsyncing on your video but on tv it was fine, i think your vid is lagging by half a second.



  53. 153

    Hey Mario - Heard you got your ass kicked.



  54. 154

    To all of the people saying "LIP SYNCHED"..you're dumbasses. The video ITSELF is out of sync.



  55. 155

    WHAT IN THE HELL IS THAT? MAN/WOMAN? MAN/WOMAN? MAN/WOMAN? PUT A CAP IN IT STAT!! THAT IS THE UGLIEST, TALENTLESS WASTE OF HUMAN SPACE THIS WORLD HAS EVER SEEN!! PLEASE PUT IT TO SLEEP SOON AND SPARE US!!!!!



  56. 156

    Re: PotatoHead – its because perez hiltons music player suxx… its really slow and it looks out of sync.



  57. 157

    Shes lip syncing its sooooo obvious! She pulls her arm down to her mouth so fast when she hears her voice and realizes oops too much booze 2nite lol



  58. 158

    As if it wasnt bad enough she was lipsyncing she was even doing it well!



  59. 159

    YEA THAT BITCH LIP SYNC OR LIP SING OR WHATEVER….FACT IS SHE DIDNT SING LIVE ANBD I THOUGHT SHE WAS ALL ABOUT BEING LIVE FOR HER FANS…BLAH PEREZ CHOKE ON IT…



  60. 160

    Re: former M fan – Paparazzi still hasnt topped the uk charts…many people dont call a song a hit if it crawls to number 1. Songs that go straight to number 1 are classed as hits.



  61. 161

    she is soooo funny looking! perez quit kissing her ass already!



  62. 162

    If she's gonna lip sync, she might want to get better at putting the mic in front of her face. And omg she is ugly! Her nose is huge and her hair and make up look terrible.



  63. 163

    Re: starstruck4680 – see you just admitted to her lipsynching the end of it…SHE SAID IN AN INTERVIEW THAT SHE WOULD NEVER LIPSYNC NO MATTER HOW HARD A DANCE ROUTINE WAS.
    …LIAR!



  64. 164

    Re: enigmatic09 – 2 #1s in a year isnt hard to do nowadays…wait till she gets more before saying that shes catching madonna.



  65. 165

    Perez..I don't want to pee all over your strawberries but this is not great. "Intensity of voice"? She ISNT singing live. She has made quite a good album, she is musically talented and I guess she can sing but she doesn't have either a nice-sounding or great voice, she isn't a competent dancer and her 'stage' stuff - well, we've seen it all before. Seriously, not dissing you for digging her..I get it..you guys love the tragic shit and she fits in to it. You'll still be swinging from the rafters when she's wheeled out in a bath chair at aged 90..you'll do the same with Madonna and the likes of Britney..just like all the ones before you did with Judy Garland. There's no need for such fawning..it's a bit embarrassing. Especially when you are so cruel and mean sometimes to equally and more often much more talented artists.



  66. 166

    Epic? Maybe EPIC FAILURE! This "Twat of Pop" is nothing more than a karoake singer.



  67. 167

    ohemgeee i love lady gaga but i never knew she LIP SANG?!?!?!
    check out 1:03 and her hand is totallly away from her mouth and words are being sung…
    and im sorry to say because i love you perez and i love mizz gaga butttt
    it seems like you hash out on the other celebs but lady gaga never is the butt of any jokes…



  68. 168

    she did NOT lipsync! perez's video is off sync and messed up.

    watch it on youtube and you can see the REAL video where she actually has the mic in front of her mouth while singing!



  69. 169

    great performance. she wasn't lip synching. perez's video copy is jumping and making her voice not match where it should. watch it on youtube instead.
    also, she is wearing a vajayjay covering much like britney wore and you can see ms. gaga's vajayjay lips falling out on one side or the other depending on how she moves. make the vajayjay covering wider, please!



  70. 170

    get real the first time she snubs you you will be calling her a whore.



  71. 171

    Lady ga ga is a lip syncing,ugly troll disease infested whore who laughed when perez got his ass kicked!. true friend.



  72. 172

    The video is lagging so it looks like she's lip synching but she's not…. view this video in youtube you might find it on high speed..



  73. 173

    Total copy of Madonna - lame lipsync - the audio played and her lips were not moving…she missed many marks…however, her presence and looks is excellant she needs to find her own vibe..not copy Madonna.



  74. 174

    She is nowhere near Madonna. She can try and be Madonna just like Britney, Christina, Gwen, etc have but there is ONLY ONE MADONNA!



  75. 175

    she is lip sincing at the start of this….she misses her lines….her mic is out in the air and the words keep coming lol



  76. 176

    the video quality sucks ass



  77. 177

    i thought she didn't lip sinc? hmmmmm



  78. 178

    on the other one perez is wearing NO PANTS hahahah GaGa pants!!!

    Love it but you uploaded kind of late!!!!

    GaGa is the best performer ever!!
    GaGa 4ever



  79. 179

    perez the video quality sucks i cant tell u if it was good or terrible! and second her hair cut does nothing for her.. suggest something much cuter!



  80. 180

    The video is just bad quality, I watched it live there was no lip synching, and the way she sang it isn't lip synched.



  81. 181

    Re: idevenn – DID U NOT SEE WHERE THE MICROPHONEWASNT EVEN NEAR HER MOUTH IN THE BEGINNING? PLEASE



  82. 182

    Perez I'm sorry but you're an idiot. Shes completely lip syncing. She obviously recorded how she wanted it to sound before the show so she wasn't using her original tape.

    If you notice, the microphone is FAR away from her face when she should be singing, but when she brings the mic close to her mouth, the sound gets neither louder or more distorted.

    Also, if you knew anything about the acoustics of a building you would know that even though sound bounces off and is not heard immediately through the ear, her lag time is ridiculous. Someone who is according to you, the next "princess of pop", should at least know a little more about performing before trying to act like she can seriously sing live.

    She might fool idiots like you, but people who know about music and performance know shes full of shit.



  83. 183

    So much for her "not lip syncing". Watch as the vocals start and she whips her mic up to her moth really quickly to cover it…she was LATE. Bummer.



  84. 184

    What the hell is so epic about this performance? Nothing was epic about this performance, not even original. Uhhmm, the boostieh (Madonna the past 20 years), the blond wig (madonna in 2006 confessions Japan) the boots! (Madonna the past three tours), the subway, uhhmm Madonna current tour Music! Yeah Perez very epic! The only epic thing about this performance was how much she was not original! I started liking gaga but the more Perez plugs her the more I am beginning to dislike this lady. Havent you caught on to anything Perez? Everyone you plug suffers! Remember american Idol? You plugged Lambert so much he lost! Lady Gagag! will never be Madonna caliber, that is an insult to a performer such as Madonna. You should have compared her to Jessica Simpson, now there is her equal!



  85. 185

    YALL ARE LIKE REALLYYYYYYY RETARDED. THAT MADE ME LOL.
    YOU REALLY THINK THIS IS LIP SYNCHING? LOL!
    DO YOU NOT SEE THAT IT WAS OBVIOUSLY JUST SLOW… IWAS WATCHING IT LIVE. I WATCHED IT TWICE. IT WAS DEFINITELY NOT LIP-SYNCHED. FUCKING RETARDS SHOULD KNOW BY NOW THAT VIDEOS ISNT A EFFICIENT THING. PLEASE REFER TO YOUTUBE VIDEOS AND COMPARE THEM FUCKING RETARDS!



  86. 186

    Re: enigmatic09
    Wow, what rock did u climb out of? Madonna in the past? You are even a bigger moron than Perez is. Forbes just crowned Madonna the #1 artist of 2008! She had the most successful Tour for a solo artist male/female in the history of music, with her current tour Sticky & Sweet which is kicking off the second leg on July 4th in London and is set to shattered that record! She had the top three most successful record "Hard Candy" last year world wide, beating out Mooriah Cowey! and you are saying that Madonna is in the past. Check your facts before posting, Madonna is a living legend and is still very much relevant in todays culture. No one alive today will ever top Madonna, they can try but they won't. You point out at gaggag's 2 # one hits! ha ha, how young r u, 10, 12? Anyone can get a number one record now adays, there is no accounting for taste in music anymore, Jennifer lopez did that, how original. It is you that needs to go back to your room or rock and cry! Can't wait to see Madonna in Spain next month, now there is an epic performance!



  87. 187

    this video is way out of synch..i thought she as lipsynching at first..but..as i watched it..could tell it was the video not her.



  88. 188

    that was the most amazing performance ive ever seen in my life, i swear, gives me chills everytime i watch it, tell her to keep working it! gaga gives a good idea that hard work DOES pay off :-) great role model she is



  89. 189

    Re: famelove
    Wow! I feel sad for you if this is the best performance you have ever seen! You obviously need to get out more often! Not saying that it was a bad performance, but to call it the best of your life? Just shows that you have not experience much. This performance was mediocre, nothing epic or original. But then again, she is just starting out if she survives time, hopefully she can get some originality!



  90. 190

    I know, I thought she didn't believe in lip synching either, totally off with her mouth to mic synching, hahahahaha!!! So boring!
    Perez, your critic of this performance is way off, but I understand since you are nursing some wounds from your beat down!!!!



  91. 191

    She looks amazing. She is so fucking fierce, I love it.



  92. 192

    The first part has lip sync issues, what's up with that???



  93. 193

    she didnt lip sync..it was the video quality. i do believe the chorus is recorded but that is so she can catch her breath&& on that note i could die lady gaga was amazing the theatrics, the voice ,the dancing..you have to admit it was in the words of perez amazaballs!



  94. 194

    Re: amricanboy
    You're asking someone about how old they are, but yet you sound like an idiot kid yourself. Mariah Cowey? Yes, how mature. Before you even tell people to get their facts straight, how about getting yours straight, but from reading your posts, I doubt you would know anything about being straight. Actually HARD CANDY came in 11th worldwide last year, not top 3 like you and Madonna's fansites still like to claim. It didn't even go platinum here in the US. So #1 hits don't really matter anymore–oh, unless they're Madonna's. Always the double standards for her from her fans. I do agree with you that you can't account for good taste anymore–hence Madonna's mysterious worldwide appeal.



  95. 195

    Perez please fix this video. The video is out of sync. The correct video is on youtube, just search "lady gaga much music awards"

    Do you people really believe she would hold a microphone and sing 100 percent out of sync? Of course not. OK. She did NOT lip sync. She sang live. The proof is the video that was aired and all other copies, like that on you tube. Perez just posted a poor quality video.



  96. 196

    first off perez, that performance wasn't that great. I've seen her do better. speaking of better, brit is the best live. better than gaga for sure. Don't get me wrong, I love lady gaga. She's my fav. after my girl brit. Speaking of brit, SHE'S the princess of pop, NOT lady gaga. And brit has officially become the QUEEN of pop…listen to the beginning of "kill the lights." Madonna is a LEGEND.



  97. 197

    omg are you people for real?
    seriously if you hate perez why do you bother even coming on his site?
    anyways…. Lady gaga did not lipsync… i was there at the awards i would know okay, just because the video is shit quality doesnt mean she lipsync'd



  98. 198

    Re: madonna u are dynamite – madonna copied cindy lauper and blondie. every artist is inspired by another. lady gaga has her own thing mixed with her inspirations. she is brilliant. mariah is inspired by aretha. and mariah is the best selling artist of all time. so relax. gaga is gonna be huge.



  99. 199

    Re: GoodBoyNC
    You must be a Mooriah Cow fan! I won't even bother replying to those comments. So tell me, you two cent, small minded homophobe! What is there to know about being straight! Im sure that someone with a user name such as yours knows all about it! It is funny how you resulted to name calling attacks since you could not dispute my post. Facts are facts! Dumb Bitch! go back to the rock you crawled under in gud al North Carolina and rejoice with the rest of the homophobe straight dumbfcks, you are representing, people like you are the cancers of the world! Fuck you and your ignorance!

    Re: brad9teen
    Wrong! MC was the best selling artist of the 90's, there are several artist who have sold more records worldwide than MC!
