MTV VMA Performances: Janet Jackson, Lady Gaga, Jay-Z, Beyonce
Judging by Twitter & Facebook statuses along with the abundance of text messages we were receiving, it appears everyone tuned into the MTV Video Music Awards last night. The show was dedicated to Michael Jackson and opened with a dance tribute to MJ's hits and a performance by Janet Jackson that was breath taking!
Lady Gaga, Jay-Z, and Beyonce had the most memorable performances of the night. Continue reading for photos and videos.
Our favorite part was when they made it appear like Janet was performing next to her brother on the big screen.
We knew Lady Gaga was going to come out with a bang and do an extraordinary performance. But the blood and the hanging, was a little too disturbing.
But of course Beyonce took over the stage! We were looking forward to her performing "Sweet Dreams" (already kind of sick of the Single Ladies performances) but she killed it by adding a little more spunk and bringing 20+ women on the stage!
Jay-Z, Lil Mama, and Alicia Keys closed the show with one of our favorite tracks from the Blueprint III, Empire State of Mind.
The VMA's were very entertaining and we applaud them for the great MJ Tribute! It was MUCH better than BET's, that's for sure.
