First thoughts:

Beyonce is pregnant? Also, that stomach-holding pose is super cheesy.

Adele's outfit/hair makes her look so much older than she is. Like a Grand Dame or something.

Nicki Minaj's hair reminds me of soft serve.

I think the yellow dress with the feathers and Katy Perry are my favorites. Everyone else just seems so BORING.

Boots · Gucci

I didn't watch but from what I've seen on the net, it was a choice between either wacky or boring for everyone. People who aren't Lady Gaga should leave the Gaga-ing to her!

And apparently Lady Gaga makes a better dude than Beiber.

My 8 year old little cousins recently informed me who Victoria Justice actually is. At least they picked an actress who can hire a decent stylist for the VMA to obess over.

WTF is this?

So annoyed by people (star or not) who constantly hold their belly when they're prego. Yeah - we get it. You're with child. (especially annoying when they're only, like, 2 months pregnant)

The only time it is okay to hold your belly when you're pregnant is when the pose is accompanied by a grimace.

I'm officially old... I recognized Beyonce and Adele and thats it.

ITA the belly hold is lame but I suppose it'd the international sign of "this isn't just a cheeseburher in here"

I am so utterly bothered by Adele's sense of style. It screams fat girl with bad self-esteem. She paired an ugly dress with stockings (in L.A.), couldn't even opt for a strappy heel, and then added mom's hair from 1964. It's the sort of thing I'd throw together for a funeral.

Nicki Minaj annoyed the crap out of me. It was too too much to even be artistic or fun. Seems like she wore a velvcro jumpsuit and rolled around in a toy store and wore whatever stuck.

My fave was actually Demi Lovato.

Gaga's antics stole the show and not in a good way. She seemed sloppy and manic, maybe high on something. Her rendition of a man could have been poinant and poetic but instead seemed base and stupid. "I'm a man bc I'm smoking and screaming!" Good try, Gaga.
