Insane Bump Machine 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2003 The show was pretty cool, much better than the VMA's. Beyonce winning anything is a travesty, but I'll live. Nice performances by Chemical Brothers, Black Eyed Peas and the White Stripes. WTF@that big blonde wig on Christina in the middle of the show. Vin Diesel's part with the Tartan Army was very cool.

haVoc 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2003 Christina Vs Kelly Osbourne Lots of pop stars who are huge in Europe never succeed in the United States, but judging by Thursday's MTV Europe Music Awards, Europeans can't seem to get enough of American idols. Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé Knowles and Christina Aguilera were the big winners at this year's racy, profanity-laden EMAs, held in Edinburgh, Scotland. Eight of the 12 awards were presented to U.S. residents. Timberlake won three trophies: Best Album for Justified, Best Pop and Best Male. The Neptunes, who produced much of Justified, presented him with the latter, and after they gave him the statue of an "M" on a spring, Timberlake returned the love. "If I could have had a picture-perfect night it wouldn't have been as good as this," he said. "I can't think of anyone else I would have wanted to present me with this award more than Pharrell and Chad." During the show, Timberlake played human beatbox during a performance by the Black Eyed Peas. Beyoncé was the second biggest winner, taking two awards: Best R&B and Best Song for "Crazy in Love." She also performed with Sean Paul on "Baby Boy." The host of the show, Christina Aguilera, took home Best Female, one of four awards she was up for. Viewers had something to take away with them as well. The running interplay between longtime rivals Kelly Osbourne and Aguilera was fierce and catty. During the pre-show, Aguilera refused to walk the red carpet if Osbourne — a guest VJ for the event — was present. Kelly responded by calling Aguilera's music "crap" and saying she was a "cow." Later, a skit was aired of Aguilera throwing darts at a board decorated with a picture of Osbourne. This irked the Ozzy offspring, who voiced her disapproval when she came onstage to present an award. "If Christina Aguilera has to resort to throwing darts at my head after everything she's achieved and everything she's done, then she's a really sad, sorry person," Kelly said. "And I take it as a complete compliment." "Honey, if you can dish it out, you've got to learn how to take it back," Aguilera later retorted with a voice of mock sympathy. If that wasn't fiery enough, there was full-frontal nudity to keep viewers glued to their sets. During Travis' performance of "Beautiful Occupation," an assembly of nude protesters marched onstage with signs that covered their naughty bits. At the end of the song, they lifted the signs. And near the end of the show, Aguilera marched a line of men in kilts onstage and asked them lift their outfits to display their wares so she could decide who to take to the party after the show. She earned the privilege, dancing in the opening and changing outfits 12 times over the course of the show. The award for Best Group went to Coldplay, Best Dance Act was given to Panjabi MC, Best Hip-Hop went to Eminem and Best Rock was handed to the White Stripes. Also, Sean Paul won Best New Act and Sigur Rós took Best Video. Performers included the White Stripes, Pink, the Darkness, Kraftwerk and Missy Elliott.

Guest BAR Report post Posted November 7, 2003 I watched it for the small chance of the Gunners being there. You know, to finish the show but we got Pink instead, hmm. Anyway, Rock In Rio 4 sounds great. Gn'R and AC/DC apparently on the same bill on 30/5/04. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Renegade 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2003 I thought the dart board thing was great. As much as I hate Christina and her spray on tan, still prefer her to Kelly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HellSpawn 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2003 Finally they show this thing this week. That Aguilera - Lil Fat Bitch thing was good. Kelly is just awful, I just saw a whinny Ozzy mini me on Drag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HellSpawn 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2003 BTW, what do you guys think of The Darkness? The frontman wore an outfit really ala Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin). And it looks like hair bands are coming back. (whoooooooo!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2003 I watched part of the show the other morning, while getting ready for work, and would definitely check it out if/when they replayed it. It seemed much better than the piece of crap US VMAs. "If Christina Aguilera has to resort to throwing darts at my head after everything she's achieved and everything she's done, then she's a really sad, sorry person," Kelly said. "And I take it as a complete compliment." ... what the fuck is Kelly thinking? She's accusing Aguilera of not accomplishing anything, meanwhile she herself is only famous because her father is famous, and her level of fame is barely above Gilbert Gottfried level. Nice career, Kelly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haVoc 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2003 I saw this finally last week and I have to admit that The Darkness were pretty damn good. They were ripping some shit up at the end of the song. Decent playing, good leads and they look like they were having fun instead of "this sucks, boo hoo, my childhood was ruined." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
