I remember in the 80’s and 90’s the MTV VMA’s used to be watchable. They used to be good shows back then. In the 80’s that’s when acts like Madonna, Michael Jackson and Guns N’ Roses started getting huge recognition through MTV. Those three artists used to make the MTV VMA’s watchable and entertaining.
When the 90’s came around that’s when the grunge era exploded. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, etc. They were all over the VMA’s in the 90’s.
Michael Jackson and Madonna were always prominent stars of the VMA’s back then.
The VMA’s now? OMG! I think MTV needs to get the hint that no one cares about them anymore. Back then they used to be “music”, what happened to that? Now they’re nothing but liberal politics and social justice warriors.

Sad, when I was a young kid in high school, I used to look forward to watch the VMA’s every year but now I don’t care anymore. I skipped the VMA’s this year and glad I did. I didn’t watch it at all. It’s not only liberal politics is the problem it’s just that music is shit on MTV. Nothing but garbage pop artists and rap/hip hop. MTV really sucks now. I used to watch MTV a lot when I was young… they were the reason I got into Nirvana.
