Video Music Awards
The Video Music Awards have been a big event in the music world since 1984. Every year, it is a gathering of almost every single artist, actress, actor, or entertainer imaginable. The show is to award awards in many different categories to different artist. I believe that in the recent years, it has been less and less about the music, and more and more about the artist's hijinks. Last year's VMA show was best known for the Kanye West and Taylor Swift fiasco which was talked about everywhere for weeks after it. Teen pop artist, Taylor Swift, was awarded "Best Female Video". Just seconds after it was awarded, ego-filled rapper, Kanye West, stepped in, stole the mic, and claimed that Beyonce should be the actual winner of the award. This year was much tamer, although some people did have their own opinions about the awards, it was kept to themselves this year.

Posts are ok, but material seems to be a bit flat and ordinary. You do not say much that is specific or new. Seem to repeat what others already know. The news of Kanye West's actions from the MTV Awards are the kind of detail that each post should have; but even that is OLD news and thus does not promote discussion or discovery on the part of your readers. You do not always have to be controversial, but let your opinions come to the forefront more often, do not just accept the general view of the public as the only view. What do you think "Alejandro" means? Why is it important? What are some of the ideas that Lady Gaga expresses? Is she controversial? How? Is it deserved? ETC. Do you see what I mean? Thus far: C+
