 I never thought I would see Christina on the top 3 on iTunes while Katy and Gagz are flopping after high profile performances

 Here you go. I never said you said that. I said there were bigger boosts of the night, so in comparison to other performers, there were better received performances. The 2 to 3 spot jump was rather small, especially in comparison to others, so I don't see how that proves that her performance was WELL-RECEIVED. Lol @ you shunning "fan-fiction"/"fiction". The nerve.

 I said the performance was "well-received," not the best received performance of the night. What are you not understanding here?
 
A B doesn't become a failing grade because a bunch of other people got As. You can be good while others are better than you. You can be successful while others are more successful than you. I'm not saying anything complex or shocking.

 LOVING it!   
Lemme pray she doesn't gain weight or gives crazy interviews when her next album comes.
 
Or throw gum at her fans...

 You.
 
And "Unconditionally" performance was "well-received" as well.

 Oh, boy, she doesn't have to be better than everyone, but she could be AS GOOD as everyone else.
 
Too bad that ain't happening anytime soon...

 If you Google "Unconditionally" and "Do What U Want" on Google News its fairly easy to see how the performances were received.

 Which is still not a failing grade. So you agree with me?

				“Around the middle of last year I started listening to a lot of rap, like Nicki Minaj and Drake,” said Lorde. ”They all sing about such opulence, stuff that just didn’t relate to me—or anyone that I knew. I began thinking, ‘How are we listening to this? It’s completely irrelevant’.”

 Both are flopping in sales, so it doesn't matter about "Google News".
 
But slay, Gaga!

 OMG I was going to post in the Unconditionally thread that I liked Katy's performance but I don't want to ruin their current mood (they're having meltdowns by the minute), everybody is dragging Katy there and the delusion is thick, but I don't blame them, the only thing they have to stan for are #1s.

What she needs to do is stop the theatrics, that try to cover everything up, and concentrate solely on making good vocal performances.  If they need to be stripped down to acoustic levels, then so be it.  How awesome would it have been for her to perform last night in a simple white dress and pearls (like the car scene from the video), and have her softly sing to the audience with no screaming.  Just heartfelt. 
 
I don't know, something needs to be done tho... it really does...

				I'm just similarly frustrated like spree.   
I honestly think  the ONLY thing stopping her from being the fiercest, most respected and undeniable queen of pop are her live performances. It's a mess because a good portion of the GP doesn't use her for this very reason. And it's especially frustrating when she has killed this song live previously not even just once, but two or three times. More isn't always better. People aren't always here for huge theatrics, and her widely praised performances of TOTGA are great examples of that.  If she ever does step up her game and keeps up the mature image of PRISM, bookmark me. She will be the next Adele.

 Legend X just has a very old fashioned DIVA quality about her that no one in the pop scene can match. 
She needs to work on better music than Bionic and Lotus but if she pulls it off, looking great, the world just won't be ready for her slayage.
 
Let's do it Agui!

 Rihanna's performance named the best one by Rolling Stone 
	Quote: 
	
	
		| 
			
				Just before the Barbados-born pop singer accepted the AMAs' first-ever Icon Award, she gave a performance that showed she could live up to the honor. She hovered just in front of her gold-mesh microphone and sang to the audience, "We're like diamonds in the sky," and when it was over, she let go of the song's seriousness and smiled. The audience gave her a standing ovation, which wasn't surprising considering she was, in fact, the night's icon.
