A sad day for the music industry…and yes hell is freezing over because Justin Bieber won the artist of the year. Is it really a valid system to pick the winners only by text messages? Of course Justin Bieber is going to win…there are 27 trillion teenage girls who do nothing but text all day to their friends about how cute he is and they would totally hold hands with him. They are like professional texters. You can’t beat them!
Honestly it doesn’t bother me too much because to me it seemed like an award show put on by the record companies to promote there latest musical puppets.
My question is who produced this show? Do they know anything about the music? Who brings a talented band like Santana and then has Gavin Rossdale from Bush sing the song bang a gong by T. Rex. I don’t think I ever heard a worse match. Maybe they could have had Liza Minnelli sing a song by Suicidal Tendencies with the Twin City All Tuba Band back them up.
Usher must feel proud having Justin Bieber beat him in his own category when Usher is the one who kind of “found” Justin Bieber. DUDE, YOU GOT BEAT BY JUSTIN BIEBER!!!
In a moment of wisdom Justin Bieber said as he accepted his award,
”I want to thank Michael Jackson because if it wasn’t for him none of us would be here now.”
I know Justin is young but does he think Michael Jackson invented music?
Where should I even start with some of the other flops in the show? Miley Cyrus showed how if your dad is famous you can be on a stage also. I compare her voice to the sound of cooking pans, silverware and bricks falling continuously onto a box of cats, chickens and howler monkeys for about 3 minutes.
Of course no show is complete without Bon Jovi the so called “KINGS” of rock and roll. Out of key and sounds like he should be playing at John & Al’s bar & grill. He should have used a vocoder like every other so called singer on the AMA show. Country music, please take Bon Jovi!!!
It was hard to stay awake when Kid Rock ripped into a tear jerker about his hometown Detroit. Actually, country music please take Kid Rock also. We’ll throw in Justin for free.
What a bunch of @#*% the AMA awards. What, you mean only big record company puppet bands are the only music out there? Where were all the alternative and heavy bands? It seems if you were an eleven year old girl, then you would like the show.
The big finale was the return of the New Kids on the Block and the Back Street Boys. It’s like ending the Fire Over Louisville 4th of July fireworks display with one of those like black snakes you light. I think one of the Back Street Boys broke a hip while doing the one dance move…what was that called back then in their days? I think it was the Charleston.
I am just thankful the AMA is only once a year.
“I know Justin is young but does he think Michael Jackson invented music?”
Love it!
