MTV Video Music Awards: 11 Best Performances of All Time!

The VMAs aren't like other award shows.  But unlike when someone you met on Tinder tells you they're not like other girls/guys, in this case, the claim is legit. You never know what might happen at the VMAs. Kanye might interrupt someone's acceptance speech. Nicki Minaj might call out Miley Cyrus . Kanye might interrupt everyone's acceptance speeches. You really never know. In fact, the only thing that's certain is: there will be some amazing performances. Check out the gallery below to relive some of the most unforgettable musical moments from 32 years of the VMAs. 1. Beyonce: “Love on Top,” 2011 Beyonce crushed it with her performance of “Love on Top” in 2011. It didn’t hurt that she capped things off by confirming rumors that she and Jay Z were expecting their first child. 2. Madonna: “Like a Virgin,” 1984 The Material Girl was just exploding onto the scene when the VMAs first started confusing parents in 1984. To give you an idea of how different things were then: Herbie Hancock beat out Michael Jackson as the night’s top winner. 3. Britney Spears: “Slave 4 U,” 2011 Britney Spears cemented her place as a VMA icon with her 2001 performance. Giant live snakes are great for when you’re trying to make a lasting impression. 4. Taylor Swift: “You Belong With Me,” 2009 Later that night, Taylor would become an unwilling participant in the most notorious moment in VMAs history. But when she crooned one of her signature tunes to a subway full of fans, she was still just the country girl with a broken heart full of hits. 5. Eminem: “The Real Slim Shady”/”Way I Am,” 2000 There were thousands of Eminem wannabes in 2000. But as Mr. Mathers proved in his unforgettable 2000 medley, there’s only one real Slim Shady. 6. Diddy, Faith Evans, Sting: “I’ll Be Missing You” Diddy’s tribute to the late, great Notorious B.I.G. became a massive success in 1997. It also made for one of the most unforgettable performances in VMA history. View Slideshow

Penelope Disick: What Did She Call Caitlyn Jenner???

While the older kids are still adjusting to life without Bruce Jenner/grandpa, Penelope Disick seems to be making a rather smooth transition. In a teaser for the upcoming episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians , Kourtney Kardashian tried to tell a bored-looking Kim Kardashian what her daughter recently said. “We were reading a bible book, and the angel in the book was this person with long hair and a white long dress,” Kourtney, 37, told Kim. “ Penelope was like , ‘That looks like my grandma.’” Kourtney was confused, and went through her mental rolodex of people who could possibly fit that name. “I was like, ‘Which Grandma? Bonnie?’ She was like, ‘No.’ I was like, ‘Lovie? GG?’ “And she was like, ‘No.’” While Kim's eyes started to glaze over, Kourtney continued. “She goes, ‘My grandma that came with us to see Zootopia . Caitlyn.’” Kim feigned fascination over the story, then went back to whatever was more interesting on her computer. It's kind of a big deal for one of Kourtney's children to refer to Caitlyn as “grandma,” since the former Olympian only transitioned from Bruce to Caitlyn in the spring of 2015. When Kourtney appeared on Kocktails With Khloe in April, she explained that Penelope and her cousin, North West were too young to get confused by Caitlyn's new identity. “The little ones, like North and P., they don't know the difference, which is the innocence of children,” Khloé pointed out after Kourtney told the story. “They know her as just Caitlyn.” Mason, 6, a bit older, so his reaction was a bit more guarded, having known Caitlyn as Bruce or “grandpa” his entire life. “Mason was uncomfortable but [would] kind of, like, be distant to Caitlyn, but Caitlyn … understood and handled it perfectly,” Kourtney said. Even after her transition, Caitlyn told her kids it was perfectly fine for them to still call her “dad.”

Maci Bookout: Wedding Day and Due Date Revealed?!

Maci Bookout is kinda like the George Harrison of Teen Moms. She’ll never get as much attention as her flashier counterparts (Farrah Abraham and Amber Portwood are the John Lennon and Paul McCartney of this analogy), but she comports herself with a humble dignity that’s earned her a small but devoted group of diehard fans. Okay, now as a reward for those of you who stuck with us through that lengthy Beatles analogy, we’ve got some big news about Maci’s upcoming nuptials. As you probably already know, Maci is engaged to Taylor McKinney , but the couple has been tight-lipped about their wedding plans. Unfortunately for the newlyweds-to-be, the photographer they hired didn’t get the memo that this was to be a low-key affair. The website for Brittany Photographs revealed that Maci’s wedding will take place on the weekend of October 8 . The Chattanooga-based outfit was simply spreading the word that it wouldn’t be able to take other clients that weekend, but the message was immediately taken down once Maci’s people realized the cat had been let out of the bag. In other Maci wedding news, Ms. Bookout revealed in a recent interview that the ceremony will be televised: “[Catelynn Lowell] has given me some tips on having the camera crew and MTV be a part of it,” she told Reveal UK . “Filming is a lot of work. So having that added stress can be a little tough.” And it looks like one extra guest will be in attendance, as sources close to Maci is due to give birth to her third child “any day now.” Exciting times in the life of the Quiet Teen Mom. Watch Teen Mom online to relive Maci and Taylor’s road to the altar.

Madonna Defends Prince Tribute, Sends Message to Critics

Madonna would like to apologize to anyone who has an issue with her tribute to Prince at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards on Sunday night. She understands your criticism and she didn’t mean to offend you and she knows she did not do the late musician proud and… … JUST KIDDING! Does that sound remotely like Madonna to you? Just hours after The Material Girl sang a version of “Nothing Compares 2 U” and then joined Steve Wonder for a duet of “Purple Rain,” BET called out Madonna for what that network deemed to be a terrible performance. Hyping its own Prince tribute at the BET Awards on June 16, this is what the network Tweeted: See the message on the bottom? Pretty harsh, huh? Even before Madonna took to the Billboard Music Awards stage, a change.org petition compiled over 8,000 signatures, urging almost any big name aside from this legendary artist to honor Prince, who died on April 21 at the age of 57. This, despite the fact that Madonna collaborated with Prince back in 1989 and even once dated the superstar. Madonna and Stevie Wonder Honor Prince at Billboard Music Awards What does Madonna have to say to these critics? “Deal with it,” she wrote last night on Instagram alongside a photo of her decked in an all-purple getup. Several hours later, she returned to elaborate via a second post: “Anyone who wants to do a tribute to Prince is welcome to. Whatever your age Gender or skin Color. If you loved him and he inspired you then show it!!!! I love Prince 4 ever.” Sounds pretty reasonable, doesn’t it? With so many awards shows on the docket, we can expect an endless number of Prince-themed performances over the next few months. Instead of criticizing the ones you don’t like, let’s all use them as an opportunity to remember the reason why they exist in the first place: Prince is dead. Prince is an icon. And Prince deserves to be honored in as many ways as Hollywood can honor him. View Slideshow: Billboard Music Awards 2016: Watch the Performances!

Madonna Compares Self to Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King, Sparks Outrage

Madonna recently compared online song leaks from her new album to rape and terrorism , generating her usual bit of controversy in the process. But that was apparently just the appetizer to a full-on meal of outrage the legendary artist has gone on to spark this week. In a series of Photoshopped Instagram pictures to promote her CD, “Rebel Hearts,” Madonna seemingly likened herself to Martin Luther King Jr. and Nelson Mandela by superimposing her album artwork on to their faces. “This #rebelheart fought for freedom!” Madonna captioned the photo of Mandela, adding of Dr. King: “This #rebelheart had a dream.” The use of such icons as a tool of music promotion has stirred up anger among many Twitter followers. “This is pure stupidity,” wrote one user, whole another told the artist to “grow up” and another posed a question question: “Bitch what the f—k?” In a more eloquent critique, another “beate_abbey” wrote the following: “To lessen Mandela’s and Dr. King’s achievements as far as making their faces involuntarily a part of a marketing campaign for some irrelevant pop music is just a huge perception disorder. I’m already unnerved by all this pictures with strings in people’s faces. This despair is such a cringe factor. It’s a pity.” 10 Controversial Photos of Madonna 1. Madonna Armpit Hair Pic Madonna has hair in her armpit. And she’s not afraid to show it off. One day before her controversial snapshots went public, Madonna appeared aware they would cause anger. “Dear haters, I have so much more for you to be mad at … be patient!” she wrote on Instagram. The Material Girl also recently posed in a burqa and referred to kale as gay .

Madonna Dresses as Daenerys Targaryen for Purim

The Material Girl turned into The Mother of Dragons over the weekend. In an unexpected Instagram photo, Madonna made her affection for Game of Thrones clear, dressing up like Daenerys Targaryen in honor of a Jewish holiday. “Happy Purim!!!!! All Hail All Queens! ##certainty,” the singer wrote, donning a platinum-blond wig and posing with toy dragons on each shoulder for the occasion. Madonna, of course, converted to Judaism-based Kabbalah in the late 90s and it’s true that Purim often includes the use of costumes among its traditions. Is the artist going a bit far by donning this ensemble?  Whatever. At least she isn’t referring to her son as the N Word . Game of Thrones Season 4 , meanwhile, kicks off on April 6. We know at least one famous person who will be tuning in.
