4. Demi Lovato & Iggy Azalea
Well hello there, Iggy Azalea! One of the stars of last year’s VMAs popped up unexpectedly to assist Demi Lovato with a new “Cool For The Summer” remix, which surprisingly slowed down the performance’s momentum after Lovato punctured a giant cherry piņata. As much as we enjoy a surprise twist mid-performance, Lovato was owning the stage solo — and continued to do so after Azalea left by floating through the crowd while hoisted up on an inflatable raft.

Demi Lovato and Iggy Azalea, "Cool For The Summer"
The pop star pulled out all the stops for her performance of “Cool For the Summer,” taking the stage with neon-clad backup dancers and massive purple cherries. While the energy dipped when Iggy Azalea appeared to debut a verse for the song, Lovato reignited the heat when she was was carried into the crowd on a massive inflatable raft. B

Worst: Demi Lovato's Summer Bummer
Nobody can out-Miley Miley. Where Cyrus' twerking in 2013 was campy and goofy, Demi Lovato's hyper-sexual performance of "Cool for the Summer" — in which she popped cherry balloons and murdered a metaphor — came off as crass and too self-aware. Dressed in fishnets and lingerie, the singer opened the performance flanked by backup dancers who looked like marshmallow Peeps and thrusted her crotch. And even though Iggy Azalea's cameo was a mumbly mess, the worst part of the performance came when Lovato climbed into an inflatable raft bound for the audience only to be carried by security guards who wouldn't let the fans near her. It looked like the saddest mosh pit ever.

Two praised Demi, 3 dragged Iggy.
She should NEVER work with Iggy again... she is so hated it's not even good for Demi's career.
And not only by critics, but everyone except her fans seems to hate her, damn... And just thinking she has a song with her in Confident...
I still don't get why she is so hated and I kinda like them working together but looking at this... she shouldn't...
