Gaga VMA performance very well received by audience
An excerpt from an Entertainment Weekly article:
Quote:
10. Finally, it seems as though Lady Gaga has gained some ground in her tete-a-tete with Katy Perry, at least as far as their respective in-house reactions were concerned. Gaga’s show-opening performance was very well received by the audience in the Barclays, while Katy Perry had a harder time connecting. Of course, she was a mile away performing remotely, but even before “Roar” kicked off, there were already an awful lot of people dressed as empty seats.
why would people stay for something that's not even live and performed in front of them
obviously they would leave
what matters is that more people watched Katy on TV than Gaga
Well, Katy didn't even perform live. It was obviously not gonna get the same house reaction as Gaga.
There were probably a lot of people that decided to get outta there before the crowds started a traffic jam.
