She already single handedly saved the VMAs in 2007 and then again in 2008. The show was on the verge of being cancelled before she stepped in and opened both shows.

The Beyst and Frih took up about 50% of this year's show so they are to blame. Britney saved the ratings from dropping lower if anything. She kept the white and gay demographic watching for sure.

Janet did more damage to popstars by showing her gross **** on TV than anything Madonna ever did.

I refuse to believe you're this dense.

Gaga and Madonna have shown female popstars can profit off gays (and I don't mean that pejoratively).

What you're doing is suggesting she can't speak for ANY issue, unless she speaks for ALL of them. Which is a petty, nonsensical paradoxical circumstance to put her in...unless of course your only motive is to turn her positive involvement into a negative.

So at least THAT much is transparent.

You sound like those people who self-righteously dragged Madonna for putting on AIDS fundraisers in the 80s when close friends started dying from it and the government wasn't doing enough.

She does

The Formation video celebrates, among many things, New Orleans queer culture.

So no, it wasn't just "the gay voice" as you noted last night. But a prominent voice in a queer subculture.

The All Night segment of the Lemonade feature incorporates LGBT couples in its celebration of committed relationships.

Now what do you call it when a straight woman incorporates rather than co-opts queer culture and people into her music? Sounds a lot like fighting homophobia. If you can't grant her that, at least accept that her feminism and black pride is LGBT-inclusionary.

NOT the highest-acclaimed female artist of all time. Swizz's statement was 100% accurate. No reason to try to point the fingers away from Knee when it's a FACT.

excuse u

Rihanna's carbon copy of New Person, Same Old Mistakes is great.

I don't know which one I prefer - both of their voices are great.

The media damaged Janet's career cuz she's a black woman.

They should've ended JT.

I have absolutely no idea of who are these girls.

Nah more cause she's a dumb hoe

Beyoncé's set was full of hitless songs no one knew the words to. Without the theatrics it would have been just another mediocre performance.

It's not the same. Rihanna's is 30 seconds longer.

Make Me - number 2 song in the country weeks after its release

Formation plummeted 2 weeks after its release. A quick lil single.
