Madonna didn't attend this year's event anyway she still holds the record of 20 Vma awards won!!.

She is probably preparing for W.E.'S world premiere on thursday!.

she used to make the vma's worth watching , this particular award show used to be huge i really think people are not that interested anymore!

Yeah in the 80's and 90's it used to be big. I think because mtv has changed and people it's never been as good as it used it used to be. I can't even remember the last time I saw a music video on mtv, it always has shows on.

 

Madonna's kiss with Britney had a media frenzy, I feel a bit bad for christina cos the camera cut away from her to see Justin"s reaction. The newspapers even had free posters of that kiss and those pictures were so over used. Vogue's performance was a highlight too.

Gaga's a bit behind trying to kiss Britney isn't she.
