    just ending here. overall, a pretty shi*e show, that seems to have been the trend in recent years. i quite liked katy perry, she's quirky and likeable. as for the acts, i liked the killers performance, kanye's was pretty good for "love lockdown". ]


    when bono came out to present mcartney with the legend award i had to change the channel, his spectacular fawning and bullshi* was simply mind blowing, what a tool.

    The Killers performance was good. Didn't really see much of the rest but I see Take That won an award as did a few weird European bands/singers I've never heard of. And Michael Owen looked the hawtness.
    Leona Lewis made me fall asleep so missed the rest :pac:

    Yeah don't like the Killers new song at all - but the way the stage was set up with the boxes was just brilliant. Fair play to whoever designed and made up all the graphics.

    And same goes for Kanye West's performance - the white suit on top of a bright white stage was effective enough to remember a few mins later, unlike some of the rest.

    And Katy Perry is Gorgeous!!!!!! :D:D

    You should seek to have yourself taken off the sex offenders list so.

    Bono made me cringe so much , he's such a tool, like he had all these screaming fans throwing their hands out when he was walking down stage but he just brushed past them when a gratful person would slap hands with them...

    loved it when he tripped though!! :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭johnk123


    I thought that it was good enough tbh. Katy Perry was very sexy and a likable host. It was better than most other stuff on last night. Grace jones was odd though, then again though, she always is. I remember hearing on Jonathan Ross that she is in here 60's. Thats amazing.

    Good show overall i think. But i agree, Bono made a fool out of himself


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,649 ✭✭✭Catari Jaguar


    Bono is such a knob. I couldn't believe my two most hated celebrities were on the same stage and both went home with no bullet wounds?? Impossible!! :mad:

    I have a Katy Perry crush too. Good thing she kisses girls and likes it :p She was very charming and funny. Too good for MTV I reckon.

    Beyonce looked like Robocop in that awful awful dress. She was scary intense. Crying and all. Sap.

    Nice to see Britney is winning sympathy awards :rolleyes:

    Jared Leto made a tool of himself. Sell out.

    It dident seem too bad a show but not quite as entertaining as the show from Munich last year, although when compared with the destruction of its American equivalent, the VMA's in recent years, the EMA's are still a pretty good show.

    As others have said, Katy Perry..mmmmm.
    30seconds from Mars, Go away and dont come back
    All the Obama loving got very old, very quick
    kanye and the killers were very good,Take that not too bad, Pinks vocals were atrocious.
    The set itself was fantastic, all credit to the designers.

    Those MTV awards shows are tripe.
    Complete and utter garbage.
    MTV Europe awards and as usual all the awards go to Americans.Sad .
