Mission accomplished, the video will be a hot one in the FAIL category.

Shock and disgust instead of grace añd talent.

0 ( +2 / -2 )

Yuck! Yuck! Yuck! Women and men who feel the need to shock like this don't seem to realize that they aren't shocking so much as they are annoying and disgusting. Miley didn't invent raunch or sex and the sooner she realizes that the sooner she can get around to shocking us with her talent instead of with her childish attempts at attention.

It was an odd sight, to be sure. What was with the tongue thing? Ew.

It's funny, isn't it, how Robin Thicke, who participated in the MTV, is not vilified to anywhere near the same extent as Cyrus has been.

She's right, she made history that she's as bad as her father was. Mission accomplished.

To some extent you are right. However, it was Cyrus that was rubbing her backside against his crotch and diddling herself with the giant finger. Thicke is an accomplice but not the person that instigated her dreadful "performance".

Sex sells if delivered correctly. Ex Disney star....not the best combination. Mimicking Madonna, not a good idea. Acting slutty, few want to see that.

Alas, she didn't "shock" or "make history", but she did make herself a laughing stock with her ridiculous performance.

Miley Cyrus is no longer what she used to be. Her image, character and I believe personality just disgusts me. I like the old her not the slutty version....

@Maria He didn't stick his finger in her crotch, and was sticking his tongue out like Gene Simmons, We get the "against Disney image" allready grow up Miley.

Marie: It's funny, isn't it, how Robin Thicke, who participated in the MTV, is not vilified to anywhere near the same extent as Cyrus has been.

Normally I'd agree with you about the double standards but, as was said, she was the one doing all the nasty crap while he looked genuinely uncomfortable at times. As for Robin Thicke being vilified, his song Blurred Lines has been banned from a number of universities and came under heavy criticism as being a "rapey" song:

Featuring rappers T.I. and Pharrell, Thicke's "Blurred Lines" came under fire this summer when critics called the song misogynistic and even "rapey" for its boundary-pushing lyrics and scandalous music video which is chock-full of naked female models. The criticism even came from other musical artists, with Sara Quin of the band Tegan and Sara saying this week, "I don't want to go publicly on record saying I don't like Robin Thicke or that song. It's just...I struggle with some of it."

At first, a risque music video full of topless dancers brought accusations that Thicke was demeaning and objectifying women. More recently, prominent feminists have released a series of articles and parody videos accusing the lyrics to Blurred Lines of endorsing rape and sexual assault, with one going so far as to call it a "rape anthem....about male desire and male dominance over a woman's personal sexual agency."

comon the only thing that would really shock anybody if she stripped off butt naked and did the show nude. shes trying so hard to get rid of the Hannah Montana image but is just making herself look like a cheap hooker.

She actually looks a bit like Rihanna in the above pic, is that the look she's going for?

1 ( +1 / -0 )

Classic! Yeah, she's famous alright! She's famous for making a complete fool of herself! Otsukade!

..."make history"? Really?

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Some tacky, oversexed "performance" at a pop event is "making history"? How low have we sunk.

1 ( +1 / -0 )

Well, if it's all for publicity, it could be the marketing strategy of the decade, I'm sure she's made millions this past month.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

She wanted to make history? Well, was there a record to be broken for how many times she could stick her tongue out in one song? What was Flavor Flav's record?

If that's the best she can do, then I think she'd better try a little harder.

If she REALLY wants to "make history" by "shocking people," she should start making Porn.

While wearing mickey mouse ears...

Well, she might just go down as the squawniest mutt in history...

He daddy Billy Ray Cyrus was a likable and entertaining singer. Shame on you Miley! Making your dad fans (not your fans) for getting the embarrassment . Real talent does not need to copy the other artists performance.

'Twerking' doesn't even sound sexy, suggestive or anything like a hip gyration. It sounds like something the school bully would do to the weak kids in class: "Get the little ginger nerd! Twerk his ear!"

She stinks of desperation...It's sad!

Whoop! There it is! Whoop! There it is!!

If she really wanted to make history, why not give a performance of such vocal brilliance that people would still be talking about it? Why? Because she can't. If she had any real talent, she wouldn't need all the BS.

This chick is pathetic! Make history........................puuleeeze!

Just a train wreck in the making is all

Made bit of history myself today: tried non-oil salad dressing for the first time. We're quite a pair, Miley and me!

I think they misquoted her. She said, 'I aimed to make an ass of myself onstage.'

0 ( +1 / -1 )

She looked ridiculous. She obviously is trying very hard to make that difficult jump from child star to adult star, but I think the main problem is, she looked stupid, not sexy. She wasn't properly "twerking" (which actually may be a good thing)., she can't dance, her ass is flat, and her tongue was coated white (constipated?). Whatever it was, it was an embarrassment

When Miley Cyrus performs these types of tasteless and provocative exhibitions, she only diminishes her appeal with folks such as myself.

MEMO To: Miley Cyrus Fr: Matthew SPAHN Re: MTV VMA Antics

Miley, grow up. You're acting like a pornographic clown. Your antics do not make history; they make you a living joke.

Maria, I'm sorry, but did I blink and miss the part where Robin crudely has sex with a giant foam finger? Oh WAIT, that was all Cyrus, like every other raunchy move she planned, was her own volition and had nothing to do with Robin. After watching Miley's recent music videos you can tell those were all her own moves.

1 ( +2 / -1 )

It doesn't matter what is written or said, good or bad about people who want a lot of publicity, the fact is she got loads of publicity FREE. Look at all the posts, people who were not interested before are going to tune in and see what the buzz is about. She will pick up more record sales and fans than she loses. Ozzy bit the head off a live bat... and he went to the poorhouse because of it right?....wrong he went supernova, passed star completely. There are many other examples but you get the picture. She will be ok and get even richer and more famous.

Desperado!

0 ( +0 / -0 )

This time she will come out without cloths on body and leaves on her nipples and pubic hair area. She definitely needs professional help.

0 ( +0 / -0 )

I'm not a fan, but she accomplished what she wanted as we all remember it and are still talking about it. Do you remember any of the other performances that evening?

0 ( +1 / -1 )

Nikkeiboy, it's not IF anybody remembers her that night, but HOW everyone remembers her that night. They way everyone is talking about it, to include her prior fans, I wouldn't still be as cocky as she still is.

Miley Cyrus justify nude people in halloween by telling the other invitees that they are dressing with Miley´s dignity...

0 ( +0 / -0 )

Rut roh. I really don't think I can handle another one of Miley's taking the sex out of sexy performances.

'Cause when she does that, all ya got left is a 'y'.

Why!? Miley! Why!!!???

A flame that burns too bright burns out quickly. She can't keep this momentum up.
