Ten-Year Fugtrospective: The 2005 VMAs

VMAs WTF: Miley Cyrus
Look, there are a lot of things I can appreciate about Miley. Her hosting performance last night was not one of them. But you can’t deny that at least she picked “go big” in the age old dilemma of...

VMAs Fug Carpet: Taylor Swift in Ashish
You know what? I have a high tolerance for Taylor, but I just can’t with this, to use MTV-appropriate vernacular: Those shoes are great, but she’s wearing sparkly houndstooth sweatpants that she kept...

VMAs Well Played, Kat Graham in Vintage Versace
First of all, I’d like to note that (as I always note when I write about her) I love Kat Graham: We got to chat with her last night while we were on the scene for Cosmo, and she was super nice and...

VMA Fugs and Fabs: The Dudes (With Bonus Appearances From a Lady or Two)
First of all, we need to give a round of applause to the man or woman responsible for getting The Biebs into real, normal-person-fitting, proper jeans. They make a WORLD of difference. The hair, on...

MTV VMAs Fugs and Fines: Everyone Else
This whole event fell really flat for me, even with whatever boldface names were there. I was standing in the red carpet area for three hours and felt no sense of excitement. Is MTV over? Or more...

VMAs Fug Carpet: Kim (in vintage Galliano) and Kanye
“IT’S LIKE THIS: KIM WAS IN HER CLOSET FOR HOURS UNTIL SHE STARTED TO GLOWER AND I WAS GROWING SOUR, AND BECAUSE I’M A SERIOUS VOW-ER AND ‘TIL DEATH DO US PART’ STILL HAS POWER, I OFFERED HER FREE...

Fugs and Fabs: The VMAs Telecast
Sadly, our photo subscription didn’t have the pictures of Beyonce’s performance, although that’s probably best watched in action, anyway. Still, we get the rest of her outfits, plus Rihanna, plus...

What the Fug: Dascha Polanco at the VMAs
Because of the makeup, I barely recognized her. In fact, that might have been her hope. She looks like the “before” picture in a reality show called Will You Please Tell Her Because She Never Listens...

VMAs Fug Carpet: Cassie in Balmain (jacket) and Gucci (pants)
The blazer is legitimately great. The pants, I cannot wait to see on Jane Fonda later in this year, when she will ROCK THEM and put us all to shame. But I feel like she’s forgotten something. I can’t...

What the Fug: Bebe Rexha at the VMAs
Bebe is one of those toiling-in-relative-obscurity types who got her foot in the door as a featured singer and a co-songwriter, but now has her own album coming out in the fall. (Which is very much...
