Having missed out on a record 13 MTV Music Video Awards, Lady Gag-gag still managed to take home 8 awards at the ceremony held in Los Angeles.
She received seven statuettes for her hit “Bad Romance”, and another for “Best Collaboration” with Beyoncé on the track “Telephone”.
Gaga, while you seem to think being eccentric is fashionable, I must express that wearing a telephone on your head while on television feels rather forced, to say the least.
The colorful Lady Gaga matched Norwegian band A-HA’s achievement of being among the most celebrated acts in a single night, ranked second.
In 1987, the record was set by British rocker Peter Gabriel, who won 9 competitive awards for his groundbreaking video “Sledgehammer”.
Eminem was the only other artist to snag multiple awards, taking home two for his video “Not Afraid” despite being nominated for 8.
The rapper kicked off the event with a medley but made a quick departure 
without accepting his awards.
I don’t hold it against him. Eminem communicates something meaningful through his songs…he truly is an artist, love him or hate him.
If Lady Gaga possessed even half the talent of Eminem, she wouldn’t need to resort to wearing a telephone on her head, which I’m sorry for mentioning again.
Keith Richards once remarked, “If you say you are, you’re not.”
Gag-gag, your persona comes across as contrived and insincere. Perhaps you’re beginning to buy into your own hype…who can say…and honestly, who cares?
Meanwhile, breakthrough group Florence and the Machine experienced their own success, winning “Best Art Direction” for “Dog Days Are Over”.
Performers at the Nokia Theatre included Kanye West, Linkin Park, Mary J. Blige, Drake, Usher, Florence and the Machine, Justin Bieber, and Paramore.
Before the ceremony, Gag-gag, who refers to her fans as “her little monsters,” said, “Ironically, I’m even more proud, it’s unlucky number 13.”
“Long ago, the world told me and my little monsters that we would never be heard. Together, we changed the rules.”
Personally, I wish the world would advise you to step away from our screens. The world has enough vulgarity without your contribution.
Some of us are capable of “turning Gaga off”. Yet, the others seem to be entranced by you…how that is the case, I truly don’t understand.
Recently, the pop singer made headlines by donning a beef bikini and posing as a man for a Japanese magazine.
What’s next, a Lady Gaga hat fashioned from cow excrement? You truly make me gag. Uuuurghh!!
