Call me crazy but I didn't think Britney's performance was the worst part of the show last night. I would give that award to Sarah Silverman. Seriously, how does this woman still get hired? First the Paris jokes were hideous earlier this summer and now this time Brit was her chosen target. I get it - they are easy for material, but come on - get more creative and less vulgar. Thankfully once we got past her opening the show picked up. Rihanna won many deserving awards however we hoped her rumored boyfriend Shia was going to give it to her. Instead he told us the supposed new IJ4 title - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. (Thrilling isn't it?) Other highlights (besides the performances) included another face to face moment from Kanye and 50 Cent, and Jamie Foxx joking about the Kid Rock and Tommy Lee fight. We were most excited about four wins for JT! Click here to see all the winners.

Rihanna is so awesome and lovely! very refreshing!
1I tuned in to the show last night (haven't watched the VMAs since, um, 1999?), and while I usually feel ashamed for being so out of the loop with new music, I for once feel happy for being such an old fart at 24.
I'm also a Justin fan, but wow, he's irritating. I agree
about the Sarah Silverman thing too--anyone can be vulgar and take cheap shots at people who are tabloid fodder. I've seen the commercial for her new show where she cops to having a "horse
face with huge nostrils", and apparently that's all she really is. Gimme someone with talent like Chris Rock, Margaret Cho, or Eddie Izzard over that loser any day. Also the whole feel of the
show was disjointed and just awkward. It felt like no one was in control of it at all.
2the show wsa just BAD
3loved looking at people's expressions while britney performed. especially 50, he was confused.
4I agree, Britney wasn't actually bad it's just that she used to be amazing. People are being really horrible about her body-she's had 2 kids for god's sake!! And don't get me started on that Sarah Silverman-she's not the slightest bit funny she's just rude-why does MTV keep hiring her?!
5Justin is such an arrogant little b*tch
6I cant stand Justin! Chris Brown was amazing!!
7Sarah Silverman is not funny. I don't like Paris and admit that Britney is washed up, but she was just annoying.
8em1282 I agree with you about the whole show. I knew I wasn't the only one who felt like the it was too out of control. Just too disorganized. Seems like they had 12 shows going on at once. Everytime the nominations were read they were a bit too fast and felt dizzying. The audience was so blah, everytime the camera took a shot at the audience it seems like they were all playing around with their blackberries or sitting ther looking zoned out. And what wuz up with the back of Timbaland's head? Ewwwwww.
9Chris Brown IS amazing! I'm not really a fan, but wow, it was sick! Probably the only performance I really liked.
10Lmao
Kanye has to tip toe!....and Sarah Silverman is just too vulgar and crass for my liking
I get to see the show later tonite...we get it the dayafter in the UK.
im looking forward
to Chris breezy and Rih rih! NOW thats tha BIZNEZZ!
11how come when i click on the pics from the VMAs they wont let me see them ... all i get is blank screen : (
12I thought the show was ridiculous. Great I got to watch a bunch of drunk people. yay.
13And I'm sorry but I know people are trying to give Britney a pass, saying she was ok, just not like she used to be. I disagree. her dancing was HORRIBLE. She was sloppy, didn't hit any of her moves, she seriously looked like she was on drugs. And don't get me started on her face or lip synching. She didn't even look like SHE cared! I don't know why Sarah Silverman gets hired either. But as much as everyone hate or loves JT i LOVE that he called out MTV to actually play videos. I was cracking up, they seriously play like maybe 2 hours total of videos each day. So much for music television.
All in all, show was a mess. Probably won't watch next year.
You guys are crazy- Sarah Silverman was hilarious. MTV continues to hire her back because she is funny- end of story. They obviously knew she wasnt going to be reserved with her jokes, so you've got to be crazy if you think they're sitting back embarrassed today. Britney is the biggest joke of all time, she was absolutely terrible. From hair, to the hideous outfit and horrible routine, she was a waste of time.
14I think everybody was just too blowed to put on a good show. The whole show was off...
15I wanted britney to be good... I was very disapointed. Now I just feel bad for her. Adios Britney, but welcome to the surreal life club....
16I agree, Britney wasnt spectacular like other years but not that bad, and Sarah whatever is sooo vulgar and not funny I really dont like her....
17Britney wasn't horrible, she is just not back to her old self. She hasn't performed in front of so many people in a long time. I love Gimme More and hopefully she will get it together all the way. I can't stand Sarah Silverman, no talent at all.
18i don't like rihanna that much. JT is just quite lucky.
19oh sad. britney was soooooooooooooo disappointing
sarah silverman bombed brit. nothing was funny n then she brought up paris i was like oh god leave her alone u bombed her b4 she went 2 jail. then talkin about jewish ppl and amy winehouse didnt get from the start.
20JT was great but wat was with him talkin about videos n stuff. mtv is getting away from all the video playing but jt needs 2 stop. sometimes u gotta keep ur mouth shut but i STILL LOVE him
I was surprised at how amaturish Beyonce seemed when she won an award. Her speech wasn't good and her comment "I hate these things" didn't do much either. She didn't sound poised and if I didn't know better I would have thought she never had to speak on live TV before.
21Sorry, but Britney was that bad. Sarah Silverman’s career is a total mystery to me.
22Chris Brown’s performance was amazing, and JT is right about MTV.
Timbaland's and Dr. Dre's muscles made my jaw drop
23Justin was SO drunk during his acceptance speeches..lol....but he never fails to amaze me with his dance moves. SO HOT!
24Yay for JT & Rihanna!
25Shiloh I know!! When Dre came out I was like daaayum...and then I saw Timbaland and woah!
26I love me some Justin.
27I couldn't agree with Bellaleigh19 more... Sarah Silverman is funny.
I'm a huge Britney fan, or I was, but last night... she wasn't even trying. I really hope she feels like crap about her performance since I had to endure it. If you are going to spend all this time away from your children to pursue your "art" or "craft" or "comeback dream" then you better make it good. She was so disappointing.
28.....
everybody sucked but rihannas alicia keys and chris browns's performances. but - nooo
they dont get any credit cuz britney was the highlight
..PSHH
29lol aud&whit&lau haha promoting the hills
30WHERE THE HELL IS ROBIN THICKE!!!?!??!!? HE WAS THERE DAMMIT
31i freakin love you JT!!
32I sooooo proud of JT for wining all those awards, way to stick it to them JT. I'm glad Rihanna won I hate the song put the video was hella creative. Has for britney well you guys shouldn't be suprise we knew she was gonna lipsync as for the dance routine anyone that saw clips of her shows at the house of blues could've predicted this. Sorry brit fans she trully sucked
33I thought Sarah's jokes were lame. We say funnier things on here and no one is hiring us to make fun of Britney and Paris. We just get points for it!
34Sarah's jokes were tacky - if I had a tomato I would throw it at her.
35LOL TOMATO
36Was that the lamest show is history or what. The only thing worse is seeing Criss Angel do magic. It Sucked.
37Well I sure am glad I didn't tune in for the whole thing.. YAY FOR ME NOT WASTING MY TIME!
38i love rihanna, but im not quite sure about her dress
39I'm so proud of my little Justin!!! He deserved those awards
I agree with Vanilla Bean, Britney wasn't terrible, she just didn't live up to what she used to be.
Sarah Silverman is an idiot. I don't know how taking cheap shots at people makes you funny.
40i still say bono shoulda won...
but whatever mtv is
worthless anyway..its not liek jt was ever nominated for the noble prize lol (UNLIKE BONO)
so whatever.
41So glad to hear I'm not the only one who finds Sarah Silverman mean-spirited and unfunny. She has to put down other people to make herself feel good (or "funny"), and really, at this point, Britney is just too sad to mock so cruelly.
42Britneys performace was just what I expected from her.

Britney's a HOT MESS!!
44Well, I thought Sarah was funny! She puts herself down all the time, too, so it's not like she puts people down to make herself feel better. Britney was a hot mess. A part of me almost wanted her to bomb, but I actually just feel sorry for her after that performance. I'm still pulling for her to properly make her big comeback.
45How come there's no pics of Nicole Scherzinger's performance?!!!!
46SHE WAS SOOOO HOT!
Sarah Silverman was really horrible.
47She wasn't funny...it was obviously really mean. NOBODY WAS LAUGHING.
She left with her diarrhea joke bcoz she knew she bombed.
And she said that diarrhea joke would get anyone out of any situation.
She used it bcoz she knew IT WAS A TOUGH CROWD.
She was TOO MEAN.
Nobody thought it was that amusing.
She was obnoxious.
rihanna couldn't walk with her dress. lauren is wearing to much make up ew
48I didn't watch so now I have to find out when it reairs so I can see the Chris Brown and Rhianna's performance that everybody seems to love.
49I so agree with you about Sarah Silverman-all her jokes are insulting.
