Janet Jackson opened up the American Music Awards with an 8 minute medley of her greatest hits and also her new single, “Make Me.” I enjoyed her performance as I always do! I thought she did a phenomenal job! Check out the video below.
Other performers at the American Music Awards included Shakira, Rihanna, Jennifer Lopez, Jay-Z, Alicia Keys, Whitney Houston, Black Eyed Peas and much more! My personal favorite performances from the night were Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, Whitney Houston, Carrie Underwood and Lady Gaga! Check out the rest of the performances after the jump!
Just when we started to put the Lil Mama incident at the 2009 MTV VMAs behind us…a new video hits the Internet! In this video, you can see Beyonce attempted to pull Lil Mama back before she jumped onstage during Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ performance. I have to admit Beyonce’s facial expression is priceless.
Kanye West apologized to Taylor Swift for ruining her acceptance speech via his blog earlier today and replaced it with a second apology.
Below is the original apology which was removed.
“I’M SOOOOO SORRY TO TAYLOR SWIFT AND HER FANS AND HER MOM. I SPOKE TO HER MOTHER RIGHT AFTER AND SHE SAID THE SAME THING MY MOTHER WOULD’VE SAID. SHE IS VERY TALENTED! I LIKE THE LYRICS ABOUT BEING A CHEERLEADER AND SHE’S IN THE BLEACHERS! ………………. ….. I’M IN THE WRONG FOR GOING ON STAGE AND TAKING AWAY FROM HER MOMENT!……………..

Read the second apology after the jump.
The 2009 MTV VMAs started off on a HIGH note with a spectucular tribute to Michael Jackson by his sister Janet. Then with a blink of an eye the show got “interesting.” But before I get into the foolishness here are some highlights from last night.
HIGHLIGHTS:
I enjoyed Taylor Swift’s performance. I thought it was creative, cute and fun.
