Award shows like the VMA's are crap now because the music industry is no longer what it used to be. Hardly any interesting or real charismatic stars anymore. It's just not exciting to watch anymore.

The only award show I enjoy now is the Soul Train Awards because it's consistently good imo.

People just need to face the fact that the music industry has been dead for YEARS. This is not the 90s and before where you had to have talent and have actual good music instead of fake hype. Too many prolonged careers that should've been over a long time ago it's like everything and everybody is being forced at this point.

That's why I actually appreciate artists taking time between albums and putting out good work. Like the amount of fake hype. The most recent fake hype I heard was Jorja Smith singing Man Down by Riri. It didn't sound good but because Jorja is pretty a lot of men in the comments suddenly reacted as if they were hearing a symphony by the Greek Gods.

I had a dream that Ariana was perform God is a woman then mid way through I heard "life is a mystery. Everyone must stand alone..." The commercials are saying collaborations, maybe Madonna will join Ariana.

I think the best thing for some of the artists is to go Indie.You get control of your image and music. You can go social media and market yourself.

So it's fame. Not talent that matters. You know what nvm. We are on 2 COMPLETELY different wavelengths.

I never said talent didn't matter , you're just not understanding what i'm typing. I interpreted OP's post as saying there were no famous people so that's why I said what I said.

Not my problem you keep misinterpreting my statements.

the young kids these days don’t care about award shows. they used to be about seeing your fav celeb bc that’s the only time you could see them. now everyone has a social media and is on active on it and interacts with fans to some degree. it’s not fun anymore lol.

when i was little i would watch these award shows religiously. i stopped watching when i stopped recognizing the people that were invitied.

I honestly I am 23 and I don't care about these awards shows. A lot of them are wasteful. People cannot dress . I don't care about musicians or actor like that to waste two hours.

For me that doesn't exist. Everything has been down hill since 2008/9

Lmao at DJ Khaled, Cardi B., Camila, and Jennifer Lopez and Millie Bobby Brown seen as not big enough. How Sway? Plus Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande are going to be there.

None of these people are big except maybe Nicki, jlo and Ariana. No one is checking camilia, is this a joke?

oh when i mean young kids, i meant 14-16 years. i'm 22.

i just remember a time before social media where award shows were the only time you could see your favorite celebrities.

I agree with you! I never saw the appeal of these “relatable stars” a la Jennifer Lawrence. I’m an ordinary person, surrounded by other ordinary people, why do I have to turn on the TV and see more ordinary people? I don’t need to relate to anyone, I just want Hollywood to do their jobs and sell me a fantasy world.

^ That part. I like my celebs exclusive. Imagine Whitney or Mariah arguing with a Real World cast member in the 90s. It wouldn't happen cause they wouldn't even be breathing the same damn air.

Now we got millionaires on the gram partying with yt stars, arguing with LHH cast members, and dressing in $2 fashionnova fits. Ew.

note: I know we're all humans at the end of the day but I liked when celebrities weren't in arm's length. It was fun to watch their lives now it's just sad and annoying.
