MTV VMA 2012 Awards Red Carpet Best Dressed Celebrities

10 Eye-Catching Looks from Last Nights MTV VMA Awards

This years MTV Video Music Awards didnt feature a big reveal like last years, but there were plenty of surprises and debuts. Rihanna, who took home Video of the Year for "We Found Love," unveiled a new gamine pixie cut. Gabby Douglas did back flips onstage while Alicia Keys sang her new single "Girl on Fire." The rest of the Fierce Five was in attendance, too, presenting and then shown dancing and singing along during One Directions performance.

Taylor Swift premiered her latest hit, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," live, as the camera suggestively panned to her former paramour Taylor Lautner in the audience. And speaking of former beaus, Robert Pattinson took the stage alongside the male Twilight contingent to premiere an exclusive clip from Breaking Dawn - Part 2. (Kristen Stewart, meanwhile, is in Toronto to promote On the Road.) As for the nights red carpet style, check out the top looks—with an emphasis on "look" for a few—below.

Monday Links and Other Stuff 45 Awards and Important Announcement

Im not watching anything tonight...but heres my important announcement:

Tomorrow morning I will be jetting off to Japan for 11 days, so naturally, I wont be around. I am going to Nagoya for seven days, as we are going to our sister school over there, and then we will be going to Tokyo for three days for free time. Very exciting stuff! While Im away I will miss three big awards season things: the Golden Globes, the BAFTA nominations and of course, the Oscar nominations which decided theyd be very early for some stupid reason. I wont be back until the 19th, so the Oscars will be old news by then, but I will be posting my thoughts. I wont be covering the Golden Globes, and I may cover the BAFTA noms (even though they have zilch power now, they may still be interesting). Hopefully yall will still be around by then!

Another important announcement:
I passed 500,000 hits today, so yay!

Video of the week:

Because this is hilarious - I want the rapping part to be my ringtone.

Awards...

Around the past couple of weeks, there have been a couple of awards going around. Since youve already seen them around, I wont bother with passing it on, as everyone has one now. If youre in my links list below, and you havent been nominated, say that I gave you one. Heres the rules to the Blog of the Year Award that I received from The Cinematic Spectacle and Defiant Success:

Select the blog(s) you think deserve the "Blog of the Year 2012" Award.
Write a blog post and tell us about the blog(s) you have chosen - theres no minimum or maximum number of blogs required - and "present" them with their award.
Please include a link back to this page and include these ‘rules’ in your post (please don’t alter the rules or the badges!)
Let the blog(s) you have chosen know that you have given them this award and share the "rules" with them You can now also join our Facebook group – click "like" on this page "Blog of the Year 2012" Award Facebook group and then you can share your blog with an even wider audience
As a winner of the award – please add a link back to the blog that presented you with the award – and then proudly display the award on your blog and sidebar … and start collecting stars.

Second is the Versatile Blogger award which I received from The Cinematic Spectacle, Defiant Success, Lets Be Splendid About This, Azizas Picks, and the Very Inspiring Blogger award I received from Film Sloth. For each of them, I have to post seven facts about myself:

I cannot stop listening to Lana Del Reys album Born to Die: The Paradise Edition.
Hopefully on the 25th of January Im going to see Django Unchained with my friends - going to a movie on this day has become a bit of a tradition, as in 2011 we saw The Kings Speech on this day, and last year we saw War Horse.
I once did the make-up for the towns production of Les Miserables, so this musical is very familiar to me.
Im super excited to go on the plane tomorrow - like it is pretty much the thing Im the most excited for.
I am making my calendar this year myself. This month, I made a page dedicated to Jessica Chastain, next months one is Oscar themed. I havent done the rest, though.
I really wanna go to India to do some volunteer work, since that it is where my Grandma used to live, and because I like helping people.
Since Ill probably be buying an iPhone while Im away, Im selling my iPod to my friend for an easy price: Looper on Blu-Ray. Im fairly sure that movies make me happier than actual money.

Blog of the Month...

With a new month comes a new blog on the sidebar, and this month, the honour goes to Josh at The Cinematic Spectacle. For some good Oscar coverage, and also plenty of going back in the day, this is the site where you wanna be. Theres so much variety!

Links...

Alex does a retrospective on the brilliant career of Quentin Tarantino - and it would seem that Alex has a lot of love for the guy.

Andrew tries to navigate the immensely difficult Best Supporting Actor race this year, and puts in a vote for Ewan McGregor for The Impossible. Anything could happen in that category, I tell ya.

One movie which I think is immensely underrated is Vamps, which is actually quite a sweet little comedy (plus it has Dan Stevens being cute). Alex (Film Forager) quite liked it too.

Our blog of the month has a brilliant list of the 10 things we need to know before the Oscar noms. Seems like we have another awesome year on our hands.

Dan Heaton checks out Black Swan, which gave me a bit of nostalgia since I was all crazy over it this time two years ago.

SDG has listed his 20 favourite new-to-me movies of the year - and his number one is awesomely awesome.

At the end of last year (haha, I love saying that), Ryan listed his favourite shots from 2012. We were blessed with cinematic beauty this year.

Everyone has been unveiling their top films of 2012, but I must point out Tylers list, which has a great, eclectic mix. Plus, Detachment was an amazing film.

And in the new year we got a couple of new mega-sites: Your Face and Movie Mezzanine. Check em out!

Final word:
Who would you most like to see in the Best Supporting Actor race this year?

MTV Video Music Awards 2016

Il 28 agosto si è svolta la 33° edizione degli MTV Video Music Awards a Madison Square Garden di New York …. Maddai ?!?
tra scenografie spettacolari e outfit strabilianti … tutti ne parlano o ne hanno parlato …
impossibile non parlarne, centinaia di articoli dedicati su giornali e siti … ognuno a dire la sua …
è stata l’edizione del trionfo di Beyoncé, come artista più premiata, ben 8 statuette, scippando a Madonna il titolo di cantante più premiata di sempre;
della dichiarazione e del quasi bacio tra Drake e Rihanna durante la premiazione;
e del grande ritorno di Britney Spears.

Regina indiscussa della serata Beyoncè, che calamita l’attenzione su di lei già sul red carpet adornata da piume in un abito da favola creato dall’amico stilista Francesco Scognamiglio, un gioco di vedo e non vedo per nulla volgare ma elegante e sensuale, accompagnata per la prima volta dalla figlia Blue Ivy, una vera principessa con tanto di tiara di diamanti in una romanticissima nuvola di tulle.

Ritorna in carreggiata … si spera una volta per tutte … la principessa del pop Britney Spears dopo 10 anni di assenza dagli MTV VMA, tanto sobria sul tappeto rosso con il suo tubino nero Julien Mac Donald con una profonda scollatura obliqua e scarpe Christian Louboutin, quanto sfavillante durante la sua performance, sfoggiando un costumino giallo full paillettes aderente lasciando in vista la sua perfetta forma fisica.

E infine Rihanna, per gli amici Riri ... un sontuoso maxi trench Alexandre Vauthier Couture in raso color avorio che diventa abito, premiata con il premio più importante della serata il Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, a consegnarle il riconoscimento il cantante Drake che lascia tutti a bocca aperta (e molto da chiacchierare per gli amanti del gossip) con una dichiarazione e un bacio … o quasi ...

Il premio per il miglior outfit secondo me lo vincono indiscutibilmente Beyoncé e Blue Yvi, i loro abiti sono FAVOLOSI e poi sono troppo dolci !!!!
apparte questo loutfit che mi è piaciuto di più è quello Taylor Hill in Moschino ... altri li trovo un po esagerati, alcuni incece non valorizzano al meglio le forme del loro fisico ...
e voi, qual è loutfit che vi è piaciuto di più?
