lol normani's entire performance didn't impress me, and i'm usually living for her. she didn't sing half of the song.

[ohwutevernvm]

Honestly mte. I felt so conflicted bc I’m rooting for her and she pulled this. Like idgi. watching that performance and I was like ……sis……..

[truth_and_facts]

Lo she technically didn't sing anything, it was all pre-recorded vocals, but i get it since she does a lot of dancing.

[iznanassi]

Do you think we can successfully bully normani into dropping this mix too

[mspopstar]

Good 4 U was… interesting. I commend Olivia for singing live but poor thing still has ways to go. Even Lil Nas X was struggling

Beyoncé should give Zoom classes to the new crop of pop stars.

It's like that episode in The Other Two lol

Beyoncé should give Zoom classes to the new crop of pop stars.

The way I HOWLED. I’m just imagining her putting that mute button to work and feigning it’s due to technical difficulties.

[matsjhummels]

The way Beyoncé gave us not one but two 15-minute VMA performances and today’s pop artists can’t even make it through one song without gasping for air 💀

[ohmylol]

I haven't watched the whole performance but I saw a clip on Twitter of Olivia performing and that was rough, she is young and she still has a lot to go with performing so I think people coming at her are being very annoying, but if she isn't used to move while performing and wanted to focus in the show and spectacle she should have used playback

I like kpop and I've said it several times, when artists want to go for hard choreography and a show lipsync is fair imo

Don't go yet could have been the perfect latin bop if someone who actually could sing performed it, Camilla's vocals are atrocious, I really liked Chloe's performance

Im more surprised when Disney kids cant do it tbh like yes its a skill you have to learn but they basically fake musicals i guess, it just sets up this false expectation for them to be actual musical actors

[debbiesgirl]

[ohmylol]

I didn't think about that, she had a good start but it's clear she wasn't used to it and lost her breath at the end, she needs to keep practicing

This show was terrible. I laughed at the end when the announcer said Machine Gun Kelly had a "showstopping" performance. Is the bar that low? Honey, he was a substitute for ambien.

And I also have to be an old man yelling at clouds about Doja. I like her but the hosting was terrible. Are we really that hard up for memes that wearing a chicken suit and a chair on your head constitutes entertainment? It just felt so try-hard (and honestly, something Gaga would have done in 2010). I'm tired of everyone looking for these shameless 5-second viral moments.
