Touché dearest….Chris rock opening the VMAs with r Kelly, Bobby and Whitney, sitting with Eminem in the audience, and that opening performance by Madge, Brit brit, missy elliot, and Xtina in the beginning…..also this was the year Beyoncé performed to crazy in love right? Man was this clip a “yank” to the past or what… I felt like I was that shady divo 11 years old asshole again 😄😂
Apparently, Xtina was rude to MJB about a year before this performance, that Xtina was being arrogant and had her hand out for Mary to kiss it... she talks about it in an interview. MJB isn't really a fan of Madonna either, she doesnt hate her just her music/image isn't her cup of tea. MJB loves Britney though.
I miss these days when the VMA’s were lit! Look at the performances and the nominees in each category. Very stiff competition. I watched this years VMA’s and only recognized a few people. The quality of Music has definitely gone down!
Britney , xtina, beyonce, paris, lindsay, jessica, hillary, avril, mary j blige, Metallica, Madonna, missy elliott, snoop dog, eminem, kelly clarkson, sean paul, evanescence, jack black, jimmy fallon, coldplay, drew barrymore, duran duran, ben stiller, kelly osbourne, ludacris, nelly, diddy, pamela anderson, serena williams Those vmas had so much great artist that night like 1999 vmas
Anyone watching this in 2022 . ? I just randomly started thinking about my childhood days and how I would watch the VMAs every year dang I forgot how many bangers there were in 2003 what a great time in hip hop
@@hunterwilliams8923 i understand your points, but the VMAs start losing audience since the 2014, the 2009 to 2013 VMAs were the best ratings on the award show history, specially the 2011 VMAs.

Yo, that Britney, Madonna, Christina, Missy performance is the most underrated performance EVER. Legendary on so many f*cking levels!! And Chris Rock always brought MAGIC to the show. Best VMA host to ever live

So many people? Only Snoop Dogg and he wasn't mocking them. He was clearly on something and was most probably fantasizing about a possible foursome with M, X and B. Mary J Blige had a sneaky sneer because she hated Christina Aguilera.
In a way. According to this it did: www.blackenterprise.com/stylist-claims-justin-timberlake-set-up-janet-jackson-wardrobe-malfunction-to-outshine-britney-spears/ Justin wanted to get back at Britney and overshadow the Madonna/Britney/ Christina VMA moment, which is why they wanted to reveal Janet's red lace, and then he fucked up and revealed Janet's you know what, and Janet got blamed for it when it wasn't her fault. Janet didn't give a shit about Madonna and Britney's kiss, but JT wanted to get some shine out of it, but being the douche bag he is, he messed up and Janet was blamed for it. How damn cruel the media can be towards a black women as amazing as Janet is.

Why Do You Consider It Clownery? I’ve Notice Every Generation Says That About The Emerging New Generation In Music Artist.
Facts! We literally have no good new artist. They all recycle eachother's music and depend on tik tok to have relevancy because they lack talent.
Did it? Lol
