Rihanna would have had more if she closed or performed in the middle. People were still out for FNO or didn't realize the show was starting an hour earlier.
The biggest spike in social commentary of the night occurred during Frank Ocean‘s performance of “Thinkin Bout You.” Many viewers tweeted their adoration, and some questioned why he didn’t win more awards.
Dead at frank sounding like the queer he is and a flop.

"Ocean can toggle between a falsetto as wispy as smoke and a full voice firm as a handshake, and he did so on the VMAs, furthering his reputation as one of the most impeccable singers in contemporary R&B...It was moving, it was accomplished, and it was brave."

How does this change the fact that I thought he sounded bad? When you do this with album receipts it's cute because it's a solid thing, but opinions on a performance cant be clocked, you tried tho.
