Don't get me wrong, she deserved the award. Who wouldn't deserve an award? Technically, I'd put her under the "Alternative" category. Maybe they were all pissed because she isn't much of a rock singer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumbo Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I like Lorde, but "alternative" would definitely be a more apt description for me than "rock". I can see why rock fans would get angry. But then again, why are any music fans watching this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see why Lorde is considered "Alternative," but I wouldn't consider "Royals" as a rock song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wumbo Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Oh, and can I add to the chorus of anger at how tasteless and pointless that Robin Williams tribute was? If you can't be bothered to do a proper tribute, don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't be bothered to do a proper tribute, don't. I couldn't agree more. Playing 1 minute of a Coldplay song and showing a few pictures of Robin Williams isn't much of a tribute. Seriously, fuck MTV right now. They cancel Beavis and Butthead over Jersey Shore and now this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clappy Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 I don't get it. Are Beyonce and Jay-Z done or not? Because as sick as I am of hearing about the marital troubles of the two of them, they didn't seem to have tension during the show. Still loathe Drunk in Love btw.
