I didn't watch the VMA awards last night. I had better things to do. Suffice it to say, if you watched you probably could've had a better time doing something else too.
They stink! The performers (or so called, artists), the presenters (more of the who's who in pop culture) and the lowly paid "dancers" who help keep the show as cutting edge as possible. All of them are pretty much pathetic.
I realize that I'm "older" and out of touch on many levels but when it comes to recognizing talent, I can hold my own. Today's music (and I love music) has evolved into something more along the lines of sex on stage. Everything from the lyrics (or rap) to the costumes and then ultimately to the performance revolves around some sort of sexual inference. To be honest, that doesn't equal talent. Matter of fact, it pretty much spills lack of talent if you ask me. Which you didn't, but since this is my blog I can blast raunchy performers if I want to.
They are ruining tv & radio for everyone!
The only reason I'm even mentioning this situation is because of the crazy hype going on regarding Miley Cyrus' performance last night. Buzz buzz says that she stepped across the line with her porn like performance. Really? Just last night? Seriously? These people aren't in this business to be ignored. Or to live in a normal home and drive a car with a car payment like you and me.
They push as far as they can for the fame and the money. When they get that….they want more. The cycle just goes on. And guess what? They get it! Because people buy their garbage and scream at their shows how much they love them. No raunch is too much!
So, parents of little girls and boys who admire these "performers" stop saving up and standing in lines to buy tickets to these filth mongers. Would you go out and buy your kids a porn video? Then, why would you waste your money and your kids innocence on the trash they're dishing out everyday? Our society is falling deeper and deeper everyday into a hole of grossness that makes me sad.
Sad because nothing is shocking anymore!
Miley's half-naked attempt at "shaking what the Good Lord gave her" as dance moves while jumping up and down on a #1 finger puppet failed to shock me. It did disgust me and by the looks on the faces in the audience….they weren't impressed either.
What is next? Actual sex? On the runway? Geesh!
Stop calling these people talented. Stop feeding their frenzy. Our eyes and ears deserve better. But more than that so does our heart!
Lord Jesus
You are so holy and upright. This kind of crazy behavior must cause you to shake your head. How grateful I am that you still love us and want what's best for us, even when we do things that aren't very honoring to You.
Amen
