I missed it--and it sounds like I didn't miss much--but here is my friend The Divine Grace's thoughts via her Facebook:
WHAT I LEARNED FROM THE MTV VMAs” –By The Divine Grace
Trey Songz is cute (and has a body of pure death) but when he opens his mouth to sing, his uterus falls out. Why are male vocalists nowadays supposed to sound like they’re waiting for their testicles to drop, and what are the chances we could get Barry White resurrected?
Rhianna wore an outfit so atrocious that I would have paid good money to see Chris Brown smack her in the teeth.
If you are of African descent, it is perfectly acceptable to refer to Usher as “Urr-sha”. If you don’t believe me you can ax anybody!
A hoodie covered in caution tape constitutes theatrical costuming.
Katy Perry has the legs of a pregnant 40 year-old substitute school teacher with Crohn’s Disease.
Kanye West is more qualified to sing about douchebags and assholes than gynecologists or proctologists.
Will.i.am performed in blackface, which is racist. Normally people would be really upset, but because it was Will.i.am, nobody cared enough to notice.
Chelsea Handler has balls. Big ones.
Lady Gaga wore a meat inspired dress to accept the Video of the Year Award. I guess we should be happy that her face wasn’t wrapped in red lace, but I’m troubled when the answer to the question, “Who are you wearing” is, “Jewelry by Harry Winston and dress by A&P.”
30 Seconds to Mars won Best Rock Video. Not since KISS have drag queens been able to reference their act as “rock”.
Miley Cyrus and Paris Hilton were nowhere to be found, proving that Jesus Christ is a kind and loving God.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
