R Kelly at the MTV VMAs

[soozmac]

did anyone else witness this appearance? I almost fell off my couch, I was laughing so hard. There is a link (bet this doesn't work) where you can watch the whole sorry mess. Did everyone else hoot as much as me?

Wow! I'm speachless .....

[georgit79]

Arrggghhh! I can't see it! Really very annoying, and I won't stop till I've seen him make a tit of himself!

[evertonsue]

Has the man lost his mind?!?! Great voice though!

[soozmac]

well, it must be shown on terrestrial tv soon, he comes on roughly an hour into the show. Believe me, it's worth catching, if this link doesn't work for you. But there must be other sites with links which work. Keep looking, its worth it!

[Champagne]

OH.... MY.... GAWD. I'm cringing on behalf of the guy.

:o0

[georgit79]

I really want to see it! How long do you have to wait till it loads?

[Englishbird]

it loaded pretty quickly, which program do you have georgit, I used windows media player.

[georgit79]

nope, won't work- i used windowsmedia too.

Rufus Chuck Kathy Mary Chuck Ru what the f--k?? I don't understand what that was all about at all.

HATE that guy with a passion and can't tell you why.... so this amused me no end! Thanks for posting!

For anyone that hasn't seen it yet, make sure you wait til the end for maximum comedy value!

[soozmac]

yes, yes, the end is the best bit!

I really like the way the camera stays on him at all times, so doesn't ever cut to anyone in the crowd, as I'm sure they were all gawping in disbelief too. There were loads of cases of people being caught rolling their eyes at presenter Puff Daddy's incessant self-promotion.

Have any of you seen parts 1 to 5 of Trapped in the closet????? If you haven't, then I don't think it is fair for you to comment on his performance. That was a one man performance which is why it was confusing for you. R Kelly is a very talented artist and has done this to show how talented he really is.

[soozmac]

yes, I actually have seen the previous parts, so I knew the background. But even my prior knowledge didn't make me think that this had any musical integrity whatsoever. It looked like panto....

Yes, when he's not videoing himself sh*gging minors, he has a good voice, which is why I was so astounded by how awful it was. I understand that everyone at the VMAs wants to do something unique, but this was just plain odd.

[soozmac]

oh, and by the way, since when was miming along with a backing track, when everyone else was perorming live, showing how talented you are?

[BIRD]

If you have a musical ear you would know that the lyrics overlap so it would be extremely difficult for anyone, let alone R. Kelly to perform it live. Oh, and by the way, it was never proven about him allegedly shagging a minor!

for anyone who can't see the link, the VMAs are being shown this Sunday (11th Sep) - not sure which channel, probably C4.
