2015 VMAs: Best And Worst Moments

What happens at the VMAs definitely doesn't stay at the VMAs.

2015 VMAs: Best And Worst Moments

Everyone's favorite questionable, thought-provoking, fashion train wreck, and constant "Wait, did that just really happen?" awards show just aired. That's right, the annual Video Music Awards (VMAs) were held on MTV on August 30 in Los Angeles. Didn't see it live? You can catch up on all the big hits and misses here.

SPOILER ALERT: TSwift killed it (as usual) throughout the entire show (except her acceptance outfit for Blank Space).


BEST

Taylor Swift's new music video for "Wildest Dreams." Not only is her male co-star really cute (bonus points), she can pull off the dark hair really well.

Kanye West. I chose to put him in the best section simply because it was one of the weirdest acceptance speeches I've ever heard. I haven't been the world's biggest Kanye fan, but he was honored at the awards with the Video Vanguard award. His award speech was one of the most interesting I've heard in a while, and had a good point, but dragged on for a while, and I don't really know where he was going. But still... it's Kanye (for president 2020).


Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift's duo. Now you can idolize them, together.

Kanye, John Legend, Big Sean winning the category for best song with a message with "One Man." Not only is it a great song, but it also recognizes that sometimes there's a serious message behind the lyrics.


WORST

Miley Cyrus's outfits. Yes, Miley, we love you, but at a certain point, what you wear is really way too over the top.

Justin Bieber's performance. He hasn't been on the MTV stage in five years, and he definitely let people down. The dancing was okay, but the dancers were off at some points. You could also tell when he was actually singing versus the auto-tuned version of himself.

Iggy Azalea and Demi Lovato's duo. I thought Demi was performing fairly well except for the fact that she was over-sexualizing every body movement, but she and Iggy just did not have good chemistry on stage.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
