It's the day following the infamous MTV Video Music Awards (right, MTV don't play videos, but I've digress). Besides the shorter-2.15 hr time frame (isn't it usually 3 hours of frolic?), the 2010 VMAs were actually a very cleaned up, well-orchestrated (almost Grammy-like) piece of awards show. The very few performers did very well (Usher, Florence + the Machine, Drake/Mary J. Blige, Taylor Swift vs. Kanye West Pt. 2, Eminem/Rihanna, Robyn, Deadmaus 5, and even Justin Bieber). I am still a bit surprised Lady Gaga was the Queen of the Night, and she didn't even perform??? Chelsea Handler only really gave enough chops at the very beginning with that Gaga-House inspired piece and the Lohan intro. WIth the little time on the clock, we didn't get to hear too much profanity from the always foul Handler. Now back to Gaga, yes...she made quite a statement with three different costume changes - and the "it" or rather "WTF" dress/piece at the very end when she won Video of the Year (for "Bad Romance" along with 7 other awards) - the bit she wore was made of meat...yes, I said MEAT. The stuff we eat, cows, steaks, burgers, filet mignon, whatever u wanna call it. MEAT. And she certainly caused a stir as only Gaga could - along with giving her meat purse to an amazingly youthful unchanged Cher (wearing her "If I Could Turn Back Time" outfit).
Alas, congrats to Lady Gaga for capping off an achievement with 8 awards for "Bad Romance" and wearing an outfit we all know only Hannibal Lector may see as pleasing to the eyes, and taste perhaps.
Here is Gaga on today's Ellen explaining the beef.
