LOW: Rihanna got the show off to a non-riveting start with a medley of her raunchy "Cockiness" and not-so-dirty "We Found Love." The show's producers seemed to have little faith in Rihanna's performing abilities, as the stage production seemed designed to obscure her at every turn—first, when she strolled among the adoring throngs on the floor of the arena, and later, when she was again rendered invisible by huge white balls that dropped from the ceiling. (Since a balloon drop had been nixed for the President's convention appearance, maybe MTV was able to get a bargain price on falling orbs.)
LOW: Demi Lovato, who currently has the number-one pop radio song in the country with "Give Your Heart A Break," had her performance relegated to the pre-show. Give Sonny a chance!
Well, something must have went down. Maybe this was after Rihanna kissed C. brown and she was siding with Drake. But I thought Nicki defended rihanna about that girly incident between the three.
Or maybe she got word that Rihanna shaded nicki by not clapping?
