She was only 23 when she performed this. This was the performance that shot her to stardom, and Lady Gaga quickly became a household name after this. Lady Gaga herself has even mentioned this night as the first defining point for her career that forever changed her life.
So many people found the blood to be weird but her selling of the "injury" whilst singing like she's psychotic and obsessed was AMAZING. True artist. This is easily the best version of this song. much better than the radio version. So much emotion and range.
@@CoboProdz you can say the same about Friday Night Funkin, that gets pretty demonic too don’t you think? (if you define demonic as not being the perfect holy image of course).
It's impossible to get the life official video. I wish I had my beta smart phone recording this at the time but who knew it was gonna be epic like this and that evidence if it wouldn't be a thing.
Funny, people were already saying MTV was irrelevant back in 2009... and yeah I agree. I loved the channel for what it was back in the 90s. TRL, BSB, and of course the Thong Song xD
This was her big break. I followed her before this because I paid attention to MTV up and coming artists but this was what shot her to stardom. No one was expecting the blood. No one knew what she was going to do next in those days. And that’s what made her so iconic
THIS tho... esp back then, nobody was doing what she was doing. Now in the 2020s this seems so tame to what people are willing to do for fame. But Gaga was always the blueprint.
Yeah, all of that but also I think this was the night the world, Hollywood, and anybody else realized... Gaga could sing SING. At least that's what I felt, because before this I had never really seen her perform BIG. The theatrics plus the LIVE vocals... how could you not fall in love?!
I feel like the three things that took her beyond what anyone would believe was: 1. The Poker Face piano performance. Critics believed she was all show and no talent and she proved them wrong. 2. This performance, which proved her live performance was not just vocally amazing but unique and brilliantly entertaining in a way many hadn’t seen in a long time. 3. Bad Romance, a video that still is considered one of the greatest in music video history.
The most iconic performance. She popped off so hard in this era. Truly no one was doing what she was doing. Pop had a formula which was getting repetitive and she came on the scene and changed everything.
I was literally traumatized as a ten year old by it 😭😭 it left a big mark though because I might not remember the basics in life but you bet I know the year, the song, and the artist who did it by heart
I remember watching this live too. I watched it with my Mom and my daughter Jade. Jade is a huge Gaga fan. I am too but you can really see Gaga's influence in Jade's style especially during Halloween, I've helped her recreate some of Gaga's looks.
Having watched 2009's MTV VMA live is one of my best memories. All the MJ tributes, seeing Gaga become an icon with this performance, was just PERFECT!
Lady Gaga’s VMA wins history: 2009 Best New Artist (Poker Face) Best Special Effects (Paparazzi) Best Art Direction (Paparazzi) 2010 Video of the Year (Bad Romance) Best Female Video (Bad Romance) Best Pop Video (Bad Romance) Best Dance Video (Bad Romance) Best Direction (Bad Romance) Best Choreography (Bad Romance) Best Editing (Bad Romance) Best Collaboration (Telephone, with Beyoncé) 2011 Best Female Video (Born This Way) Best Video With a Message (Born This Way) 2020 Artist of the Year (Lady Gaga) MTV Tricon Award (Lady Gaga) Best Collaboration (Rain on Me, with Ariana Grande) Song of the Year (Rain on Me) Best Cinematography (Rain on Me)
@@Jremasters OMG. This footage is amazing. The full version would literally be a dream come true! I have tried looking for you on Twitter, but to no avail 😔 Is there any way I can contact you for you to send me the full version? 🥺
I was on highschool when I watched her performance. This was one of the most iconic moments in gaga's career and it indeed helped her escalated swiftly.
@@Rose-sy2sh They’re all iconic too but MJ aside, Britney and Madonna tend to lip sync. They make up for it with there dancing and charisma. However this performance features live vocals, her classically trained piano skills, choreography and a whole story. Not to mention this was her first ever VMA performance and she was only 23.
@chrisman The Love on Top pregnancy reveal was an iconic moment and Bey always sounds great but you rly can’t compare it to the theatrics, choreography and even live piano skills of this performance. Not to mention this was Gaga’s first ever VMA performance and she was just 23.
@chrisman Oh and I completely agree about Beys 2016 performance, it’s up there in my personal top 10 VMA performances in history and I’m a huge Beyoncé fan too, I just personally find this performance more impressive just because of how young Gaga was and the fact it was her first time. Beyoncé however never misses, I never expect her to not show up and out she’s a shining example of a true professional.
Sorry but this is undoubtedly the best performance in VMAs history. It has choreography, vocals, theatrics, shocking value, message, crowd engagement. Like Gaga created another universe on VMAs stage in 2009💅🏻👏
I remember watching this live in highschool and screaming at the TV. Love herr. All the legacy media pple and older pple were talking ish. But most pple understand her art
I just watched the interview where she talked about, “if they want me to be sexy at the VMAs singing about Paparazzi, I’m gonna do it while I’m bleeding to death on stage. Look what they did to Marilyn Monroe… Anna Nicole Smith and… you know who…” She was telling us from the jump, man.
All the guys in my grade made fun of me for loving Lady Gaga thinking she was just some half baked weirdo but no, she proved with this she’s so much more than silly costumes and cute pop music
It’s funny how this performance started getting taken down when RUclipsrs started making conspiracy videos about Gaga and the person this song is about 😂
She was only 23 when she performed this. This was the performance that shot her to stardom, and Lady Gaga quickly became a household name after this. Lady Gaga herself has even mentioned this night as the first defining point for her career that forever changed her life.
There is a German band that did the blood thing ages before Gaga. Gaga is nothing but a copycat
she deserves it all
23 ?!! Whaaaat ?!!!
As a kid I always saw her more old
There had been a brief point before this where people tried to question her singing ability and this was one of her best FU's 😂
So many people found the blood to be weird but her selling of the "injury" whilst singing like she's psychotic and obsessed was AMAZING. True artist. This is easily the best version of this song. much better than the radio version. So much emotion and range.
That’s what willful demon possession will do
@@CoboProdz you can say the same about Friday Night Funkin, that gets pretty demonic too don’t you think? (if you define demonic as not being the perfect holy image of course).
@@psychstudentrip true
How did the blood come through her costume, it looks very cool
@@CoboProdz girl bye 😂😂always thinking shit is about demons
lets admit it guys. you come to this video every time you think of this song. My favorite Gaga live performance!
I came here because of P Diddy😫
I hate that this videos just skips all the good parts 🙄this performance was phenomenal to say the least ❤
It's impossible to get the life official video. I wish I had my beta smart phone recording this at the time but who knew it was gonna be epic like this and that evidence if it wouldn't be a thing.
@@niknak410its on dbree lol
@@niknak410 that’s unfortunate but I really did enjoy your video 😁
@@niknak410the full video is up on vimeo actually!
I remember being shocked about this
When the blood came down her chest I almost cried like is no in gonna help 🤣
omg samee i was like 3 or 4 years old and I remember seeing it and I was shocked
I still am shook
@@gglovesgorillazmj7784 3? Girl
Me too😅
But i always love'd
🇧🇷
Still one of the best award show performances of the past decade back when MTV was relevant and the VMAs were an event that mattered
No, it's the best and most memorable
This is the benchmark
@@RiordanLadyGaga The best vma performance is Michael Jackson 1995.

IMO all her videos gave away that she was a theater person... The funny thing now is she's sooooo stripped down.

Where is the full version? What is the use in abolishing the full version from the internet??? It was one of the greatest Pop performances of all time

1:24 I saw that when I was young and I thought they killed her on stage😨
I’m so dead 😭😭😭
OMG same here :)))))
lol

best VMA after 2000 ever.
Let's all be honest, she's the best. Such an iconic performance never comes again
what’s amazing is that the blood wasn’t supposed to get in her eye and she said it burned so bad but she was STILL in character!!!

did billie do a controversial perfomance?
Stop comparing women you weirdo
But Billie had never done a contreversial performance...
now when did billie eilish ever say this... y'all are weird
Stop bringing women up by dragging others down, don't compare them
This is better quality than the one MTV just uploaded. The lazyness of these companies now a days.
makes perfect sense why she is in Joker 2 😂
SOOOO ICONIC. I remember the media back then was so shook. Lol
I used to have this on a pirated DVD, marked my childhood completely
Younger generations will never understand how groundbreaking she is.
I was 28 when this aired … seems like yesterday. I’ll be 44 this November. Still one of MTVs vma performances. Gaga is an entertainer.
We need the full version 😭
Where’s the full performance 😢
I will FOREVER remember this iconic performance “ WHEW “ she is a force to be reckoned 🙌🏽
I’m so pissed I can’t find a full version of this performance… 😡It’s literally iconic!
Me too there used to be one like last year but I guess it was taken down?
@@spacebar9733yeah there was definitely an original on here but I can’t find it anywhere like this skips sm
It's in Dailymotion!
she outdid the entire industry
Finally high quality of this masterpiece ❤️💎
You are an Icon for the work your doing. Much appreciated!
Thank you!
This was a revolutionary performance
Hands down my favorite performance of hers. Watched it from my dorm room as a music student and died. Incredible.
OMGG!! Thanks for this😭🤍🤍🤍

why there is no full video on youtube?
this is crazy thank you for the remaster. looks absolutey perfect
O momento mais ICONIC do pop 👑😳
Lady gaga the most iconic person in pop
The Jazmin pfp scared me then for a hot min then
Haha you are young to say that
Britney spears more iconic i think
THANK U SO MUCH.
This video pisses me off. Why is it cut short??
I truly didn’t see it for her until this performance and immediately was a fan, NO QUESTIONS after this.
And then pop music was never the same after that night. We’re lucky to witness such talent in our lifetime
I wish there was a studio version of this 😭
Fr
RIGHT!! the dramatic singing when the blood started oozing was so..amazing?? i feel like it fit the song so well
I remember watching this when I was little and I thought she actually died….I still think about it to this day
same, traumatized the hell out of me
What is up with the cuts in this video
I remember being 5 watching this and crying because I thought she died😭😭😭
BEST MTV PERFORMANCE.

No. Plz Britney deserves this time plz
@@britneyspearsfanpagevogue7515no ❤
We thank you for your service 🫡
why is there a lot of skipping ?
Cutting the whole piano scene was absolutely insane
FUN FACT!!: GAGA IS ALLERGIC TO CHERRYS !!! “Loving u is cherry pie!!”
When I found out this fact it gave a whole different meaning !!
Omg 😍 this should be posted on twitter

This watermark the size of the world killed me ☠️
The hold this had on me in 2009! I’ve been a fan ever since.
Google this performance and the link from mtv Asia has the full performance uncut :3
i remember going back to school and everybody was talking about this. moments dont happen like this anymore. WHEW.
Wtf is this video so cut up.....
this is my favourite performance of hers everrr!!! the raw vocals sound sooo good and emotional i literally watch this like twice a day
THANK YOU
Mtv released the full performance pls release the full remastered 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Is there a full HD Version? Been looking for one for a hot 🔥 min. This performance 👏 has been one of the favs of mine.
Yes. We need a full verson!
Why the hell is it skipping everything
I remember me as a kid who watched this, I was so disturbed to the point that I was shaking after I watched this and can't sleep for days.
ICON ICONNNNNN
Doing God's work. I'd love to see Miley's perfomance in 2013.
I'll keep it in mind!
2009 VMS was ICONIC !!!
Yo this performance KILLED me I was obsessed. So good
Remember when she DID THAT!? Still iconic tbh ❤️
✨ICONIC✨
HOW DID THIS NOT WINNN
So where's the rest of it?
Still blows me away
Quite disturbing to see that people find this to be more artistic than disturbing.
It is pretty artistic now that I think about it
@@Im.Smaher it is ! but its disturbing lol i am a believer in both sides
Where can I find this video?
She's such an icon!!!
ICÔNICA, ELA FEZ HISTÓRIA.
A new era was born with this performance
I still cry to this.
I just watched the interview where she talked about, “if they want me to be sexy at the VMAs singing about Paparazzi, I’m gonna do it while I’m bleeding to death on stage. Look what they did to Marilyn Monroe… Anna Nicole Smith and… you know who…”
She was telling us from the jump, man.
she invented bleeding 💅
She's god 💅
I wish it was the full performance
So good you blessed my eyes ✨👄✨
Lady Gaga sold her soul and after this she became such a huge artist🤦♀️
the girls and I could literally unpack this for 24 hours. this is such powerful art.
Literally remember watching live sitting at the edge of my bed living so hardcore
Bleeding to death on stage is the most Gaga way to go.
All the guys in my grade made fun of me for loving Lady Gaga thinking she was just some half baked weirdo but no, she proved with this she’s so much more than silly costumes and cute pop music
I remember seeing this as a kid with my mom live n genuinely thinking she was fucking dying on the stage😭🙏
Is there anyway I can watch the whole think in the remastered 4K 😭
This video skips the literal, chill inducing, heart racing part…… wtf
It’s funny how this performance started getting taken down when RUclipsrs started making conspiracy videos about Gaga and the person this song is about 😂
The most iconic VMA performance of all times❤🤍what a superstar!💖
this looks so good
FULL VERSION PLEASEEE
I was thirteen when I saw this performance and my whole world crumbled. Love you so much Lady Gaga
Omg u didnt lie when u said its in 4k
