FYI…

I figured out how to embed MTV’s video code. So, if you missed the Kanye performance that is back up now. I also added The Jonas Brothers performance of Love Bug instead of the random YouTube video. Yay for no more disappearing VMA footage…Happy listening!

Genie in A Bottle + Keeps Gettin’ Better

by: Christina Aguilera: Christina and Britney are back? I feel 12 all over again! Sorry Britney, I know you won all the awards at the VMAs a few nights ago, but someone had to get paid off for you to really “win” all those awards. On another note, Christina Aguilera performed. Mommy-hood has done her well because chick is baddd! Her performance started out with a mixed version of Genie in a Bottle and I was so lost because I thought it was a new song. She then performed her new single Keeps Gettin’ Better that was intended to inform people of her greatest hits album that will release in November. This performance was hott! Christina killed it! Although, her appearance did surprise me. Besides the blond hair and the lip-synched vocals, I would not have known it was her. She had on a mask that could have been perceived to be anybody! If word gets out that Brooke Hogan lipsynched the song, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Lovebug

by The Jonas Brothers: I received a special request last week to make a post about The Jonas Brothers. I could not make a post then because while I had heard of the band, I had never listened to any songs by the 3 brothers. While watching the VMAs on MTV tonight, The Jonas Brothers performed this song. It is hilarious to me how girls go crazy over this band because I was one of those girls that went crazy over the many “boy bands” in the early 2000s. Looking at The Jonas Brothers, they represent the 2008 brown-haired version of Hanson. I believe this band gained much success by first being on the Disney Channel, by recording songs that do not have a touch of vulgarity, and most importantly attracting the younger demographic. This song is somewhat catchy and definitely attracts Generation Y/Z. It is refreshing to listen to music that lacks curse words and does not have any sexual references. I think I will get The Jonas Brothers album to see what all the hype is about and to listen to what could possibly be good music. We’ll see!
