I watched the 2024 MTV VMAs so you don't have to

you shut the up not me did you watch the 2024 Video Music Awards well I did so you don't have to that's what you said and you know what I what was that okay James hey guys welcome back to my channel just like my previous videos I've been going back and covering the most messy and chaotic award shows and the 20124 MTV VMAs are no exception let's hop right into the pre-show because a lot happened this year's show had an interesting air date 911 no no no no no no well you don't want to hear about 911 we're going to talk a little bit about this moment the show was originally scheduled for September 10 but needed to be moved a day later to avoid conflicts with the presidential debate which was an entire mess in itself they're eating the dogs the people that came in they're eating the cats unfortunately sweetie was not invited back to host this year's pre-show we've got more we got more from your favorite nominees more glps more Glam and definitely more music coming your way right after the break and you're not going to want to and you're not going to want to miss what we have up coming on the VMA pre-show I know that's right I'm available to do the show in 2025 just putting my name out there we think get a performance of 1 800 hot and fun by lasera a quick mention that I've created a Spotify and apple music playlist featuring all of the songs that were either nominated or featured within this year's Awards links are in the description go take a listen we get an interview with DJ Ked and plussize Joe plus-size Joe talks about wanting DJ Ked bad and I wanted it bad so I had to beg him for days and days and months he finally gave it to me we then get an interview with Naomi Scott promoting smile too she is so British hello we get an interview with Anita and you're giving wedding Vibes girl the call is coming from inside the house we then get an interview with Chapel rone she is dressed in medieval night attire with very sharp nails her outfit also featured a 300-year-old robe and 600-year-old rug while she was taking photos on the carpet she tells off a photographer before we continue a quick reminder to Please Subscribe if you have not done so already over 70% of you are still not subscribed to my channel Channel what's going on click the button there was tension between two photographers which led one to tell the other shut the up the recipient of the comment vocalized oh I need to shut the up this prompted Chapel to turn around and defend the photographer by acknowledging the initiator and she clocked him immediately you shut the the media reported this incident as a photographer directly telling Chapel to shut the up but that just does not make any sense because generally you need to be talking for someone to tell you to shut the up the carpet is horrifying and I need to I yelled back I yell back you don't get to yell at me like that she then gives police detectives a tip when investigating crime scenes I would say take notes yeah take notes take notes take it all in and take some notes Nissa then informs her that she has made the final round for the award for be new artist and she is trying to find out who she needs to sabotage tonight in order to secure the win others well you're going to see hold on hold on Nissa then reminds us how to vote for the award for best new artist after showing her bias I hope you win

interview with Jordan Charles she talks about her friendship with Megan the stallion Megan the stallion my friend it's giving Ginger Ming with Kya you're my best friend MH they then present the award for best alternative video because obviously this music is way too alternative for the main show the nominees are B and Boon beautiful things bleaches tiny moves joser too sweet Imagine Dragons eyes closed Lincoln Park Friendly Fire and titty swims lose control live throughout the past month I've been creating YouTube polls on my YouTube Community asking you guys who do you think is going to win

are not ready she says hi to Daisy watching MTV for the first time at home Nissa then announces that she won the most iconic VMA performance for raw under the Brooklyn Bridge at the 2013 VM um this is not correct the other performances nominated in this category no this was riggory congratulations you won for most iconic performance the performances nominated were Madonna Britney and Christina's 2003 performance and Lady Gaga's Paparazzi 2009 performance raw under the Brooklyn Bridge no no the Brooklyn Bridge yeah I can't the 2001 Britney snake performance was not even nominated so clearly this award is invalid we then get an interview with the host of tonight's Awards Megan the stallion in uh Bob this is not a Fu ass Bob this is a Serve and Protect Kevin casually mentions that she won the award for best trending video for mamushi you have already won trending video for mamushi how does that feel and just seeing all the like the love with the dancing casually saying what I really flopped with this one you guys I did not even make this an option in my YouTube poll YouTube only allows four options and I thought the other nominees had a better chance at winning this I was mad wrong out of the options to pick Chapel Ron's hot to go one once again and we can see how the night unfolds but I'm sensing another form of riggory taking place usually MTV always gives the host of the night and award themselves and this may have been the only category where they could have afforded making a win I'm that girl been that girl Still That Girl will forever be that girl they then give out the award for song of the summer fortnite wins song of the summer and my only question is which summer in my YouTube poll birds of a fiver won by a landslide you guys keep on voting wrong do

come get this snake I don't know this snake the snake don't know me oh my God I tried to hold it down for Britney important to note around this time Taylor Swift had disappeared out of her chair in the audience Taylor Nation then tweeted did anyone check the cleaning cart referencing how Taylor used a fake cleaning cut to transport herself around the venues going unnoticed but obviously still going noticed what is she planning Paris Silton then comes out to the stage in a ripped up version of her 21st birthday dress she then presents a performance of new woman by Lisa without Rosalia she is giving us cheography she then hops onto a convey about to give us her best horse walk we then get a performance of Rockstar the extended version which is important because the outro is the best part of the song it then instantly transitions into a performance by Sha mindes in the most anti- slay way in 3 2 1 he performs nobody knows just like its title Nobody Knows the lyrics be because the song isn't out yet MTV was also very polite there was no Shady cameraman shots of Camila or Sabrina in the audience during this performance for those that do not know there was a bunch of discourse in the media around the dramatic love triangle between Shawn Mendes Camila Cabo and Sabrina Carpenter sha and Camila dated for several years and then broke up and then Shawn had a short and sweet fling with Sabrina Carpenter during this time sha was also catching up with Camila famously spotted together at Coachella Camila has a song on her new album called Jun Gloom that references the rekindling with Shawn Mendes while he was still seeing Sabrina referenced in lyrics such as if she's so amazing why are you on this side of town Sabrina then released her album short and sweet referen ing the short and sweet relationship with Shawn and release the single taste that is about Shawn and Camila Getting Back Together clearly Express through the lyrics heard your back to giver and if that's true you're just going to have to taste me while he's kissing you and the casting of Jenna orer very suspicious big sha and Dana paa then come out to the stage to profess their love for Doritos we love Doritos love Doritos they then present a performance of lose control by Teddy swims Cindy laa comes out of a stage to introduce a performance by Sabrina Carpenter she starts off with please please please suspended above the stage it's giving Jessica Simpson at the 2004 VMAs she does not do the sensored version she then does a performance of taste once again no Shady cameraman shots of Camila or sha wait is this play about us while singing an astronaut in Sp SPS an alien this getting weird Sabrina then pushes the astronaut away and then kisses the alien just like how she kissed the Camila character in The Taste music video not her calling Camila an alien Britney later went to Instagram to give her review of her performance why is she kissing an alien on stage I adore her I love her to death I didn't understand that part um why didn't she a girl like that was weird she then finally performs The True song of the summer espresso and that's tea you know what I mean how cool is it to

Thiago pzk she performs paradise and my my pronunciation again Allegria and Savage Funk Megan then tells a joke and no one laughs thanks for teaching me that it's espresso and not espresso to be fair I used to say espresso Orlando Bloom comes out to the stage to introduce his wife KT Perry doing a medly performance of her biggest hits all of the songs are featured in the Spotify playlist she starts off suspended above the stage singing Dark Horse she actually utilizes the suspension cables she does not just float she runs across dances flips and even looks like she's being dragged like an image around a screen Taylor Swift was loving her performance the entire time but Jack Antonoff not so much he puts in earplugs while everyone is dancing and refuses to stare at the stage this adds fuel to the fire when he shaded Katy Perry at the 2017 VMAs when he was eating a banana You could argue he was just protecting his eard drums but the timing for him to put in the earplugs is suspicious ktie then premieres her next single I'm his He's Mine featuring DOI this prompted somebody to tweet Katie sneaking in her new music into her hits like how you hide medicine in peanut butter for dogs absolutely foul they almost kiss and then cut to a shot of Orlando this cracks him up once he realizes she makes the audience sing along to California Girls and thank God the audience sings along not like her performance of part of me in [Music] [Applause] 2010 KY then puts on gigantic metallic butterfly wings and a bunch of drones disguised as butterflies flutter around the stage you can't even tell that she was afraid of the Butterflies during rehearsal [Music] but all of her haters at home put some respect on Katie's name she is a living legend and an icon of the VMAs walking down the carpet with her date Miley Cyrus at the 2008 VMAs performing raw under the Brooklyn Bridge at the 2013 VMAs her double denim look with riffraff and stoic presence during Taylor Swift's performance of shake it off at the 2014 VMAs and also hosting the 2017 VMAs keep in mind that was her last appearance at the VMAs she took a 7-year break Orlando comes back out to the stage to present Katie with the Michael Jackson video Vanguard award thank you I did that all on my first day of my period too can you believe it Taylor is perplexed by this thank you I did that all on my birday standby period too can you believe it she then gives Gabby Hannah energy there are no decade long [Applause] accidents I'm acting different she thanks Orlando for doing the dishes referencing her recent interview on call her daddy if I come downstairs and the kitchen is clean and you've done it all and you've done all the dishes and you've closed all the pantry doors you better you better be ready to get your sucks she talks about overcoming adversity throughout her career and even references the hate train that she received when she cut her hair into a pixie cut another great opportunity to plug my video on why Society hates the pixie cut go watch Sasha Kobe comes out to the stage to introduce a performance by Chapel Ron it's very fitting for Sasha to introduce Chapel considering the your favorite artist's favorite artist comment she comes out in a very joone of AR dis look with a flaming crossbow she does a performance of good luck babe I always got major Kate Bush vibes from this song So this Medieval theme feels very correct Chapel cancelled her Paris and Amsterdam shows last minute to rehearse this performance was it worth it hel Bailey and Lil nasx come out to the

still has her blonde hair brunette Camila then pauses the video and starts performing godspeed her latest single and probably my favorite Camila song thus far this was almost as good as the performance that she gave Harry Daniels just a couple days ago far away far away the song is about genuinely parting ways after a breakup which is such a Greatful Circle moment it started off with sha singing about Camila Sabrina singing about Shawn and Camila and then Camila is singing about leaving her the [ __ ] alone her backup dancers are wearing ski masks it's giving Spring Breakers the Miami

expecting she announces reputation Taylor's version coming out September 13th her favorite number and also the 15th anniversary of Kanye interrupting her at the 2019 VMAs the only problem with this is I'm lying she did an announcing anything why was she backstage the entire show why did Taylor Nation tweet this I'm confusion anyway everybody congratulates Taylor including Burger King Burger King congratulates Taylor Swift and post Malone you can see Megan on the side swapping the winnner card for a microphone we then have the most anticlimactic ending to the show it's just eerily silent and Megan is just vibing she slowly makes her way to vienta stage and then does a little Dany dance to her song thank you to all our fans and that is the end of a 2024 Video Music Awards if we can even
