Can y'all calm down. Obviously I'm gonna build some anxiety and make y'all wait before doing 'Video of the Year'. The performances are scheduled.
Charli XCX at the VMAs
Charli XCX was nominated in two categories at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, she is nominated for Best Pop Video for her music of 'Alone in the Dark' while she is nominated for Best Small Genre Video for the Remix version of the song. For her red carpet appearance, Charli wore a beautiful short gold studded dress by the new york city based fashion label, The Blonds along with black heelless heels by the japanese shoe designer Noritaka Tatehana.
After signing a few autographs and posing for the paparazzi for a good 20 minutes, Charli headed into the venue where she sat down along with her manager, mother, boyfriend and finally a few of her personal friends including Sky Ferreira and Kitten. She was also one of the performers at the event.
Her performance started by showing a large pyramid on stage. The pyramid was made of transparent glass and Charli was right at the middle of it. She was wearing a metallic leather leotard with fishnets and a pair of Pink Cobra boots. She also was wearing a mirror mask which was covering the upper half of the song. After a small electronic instrumental, Charli started singing a few acapella lyrics, until the music actually started. Suddenly a sort of transparent door opened and a tunnel that leads to it was opened next to Charli, while she was singing the first few verses Charli walked slowly through those corridors. Right before the chorus, Charli was out of the pyramid, and 6 dancers came from all sides of the stage. When the chorus kicked in loads of lights were focusing on Charli and the glass pyramid. It made a colorful effect creating different colors which were projected all around the arena. Charli and her dancers were doing an impressive choreography right in front of the pyramid which was still shooting colorful light effects around. When another verse started, the dancers around Charli kneeled down at Charli's sides while 6 more dancers arrived running on stage before doing a simplistic choreography along with Charli before putting on her a small white fur jacket.
The performance attracted the attention of the thousands who were watching the show, up to the point where Charli, during the final chorus, climbed the pyramid up to it's top and she started singing while standing and doing the choreography from up there. The lights were still focusing on the pyramid which made the colorful lights hit Charli's metallic leather leotard which reflected the lights all over the crowd.
After the amazing performance, Charli thanked the crowd, before the pyramid and Charli herself went off stage. She also answered a few questions to the press backstage and during the press conference which followed the award show. The performance was also all over the internet in minutes, and people were talking about it all over social networks like Facebook and Twitter, on which the hashtag #CharliXCXVMA trended for more hours worldwide after the performance. The critics also have been raving about Charli's impressive performance, noting how creative it was.

Zendaya performs at Video Music Awards
First, right before the show, Zendaya walked down the red carpet in a beautiful floral gown and Louboutin heels, looking good and feeling fine. She looked really great as photographers were taking pictures of her, and it seemed like Coleman enjoyed the attention that she was getting. She did a lot of interviewers during her appearance on red carpet, she also did an interview with pre-show hosts, which aired on the national TV, as she revealed and announced some information about her much anticipated upcoming second studio album. After she did all that she had to do on the red carpet, then, Zendaya rushed back into the building, as she disappeared in the backstage for some time to get ready for her upcoming huge performance. She was up on that stage after Charli's XCX phenomenal performance. Bella Thorne, Zendaya‘s good friend, announced her performance, and suddenly, all the lights went down, which just meant, that Zendaya‘s performance is starting.
It was completely dark in the whole arena. Nobody was able to see a thing and it was confusing more than ever, because the whole audience didn't know what to expect, since nobody announced what is happening. Few minutes later, a blurry light went on, and now people were able to see a big black pool in the middle of the stage, and Zendaya was lying in that pool, with smoke and water surrounding her. Zendaya was wearing a nude color dress with was originally loose, but since miss Coleman was soaking wet, it sticked all over her body and it even became see through, which allowed the audience to see Zendaya's black bra and panties. More of the lights went on and now everyone was able to see more dancers lying in the water, with a lot of mirrors surrounding all of them. Audience in the venue weren't able to completely see them, but the ones who were watching ceremony via television were able to see everything just perfectly, because camera was filming the dancers and Zendaya from above. Then, Zendaya lifted a waterproof microphone up to her lips as she started to sing a couple lines of her number one smashing single "Gunshots" in acapella. Zendaya souded really great, and this acapella part definitely helped her to show off her perfect voice. Once Zendaya was done with "Gunshots", live band started playing "Lost In Rehab" as all of the dancers and Zendaya herself stood up next to those mirorrs, splashing the water all around them. She performed the first verse by standing still in one place, and moved just a little bit when she splashed the water all around her and on the mirrors, while dancers were doing their amazing dance routine. Although there were about 20 dancers on stage alongside with Zendaya, but it looked like there were about eighty dancers, splahing and dancing around, because those mirrors, which were places all around the stage in the pool, created this kind of effect, and it looked really creative as every single move was perfectly synchronized and beautiful. It was a smart, and interesting idea. Zendaya joined her dancers once the first chorus started. The crazy stuff started to happen once the bridge started. During the bridge, all of the dancers, including Zendaya, started hitting those mirrors until they all shattered and... all of their wrists and arms started bleeding. Everyone understood that this thing was completely faked, but it looked really reallistic, and whoever planned this thing is probably a really creative and professional person. It was pretty obvious, that this was inspired by Lady Gaga's iconic performance of "Paparazzi" four years ago. During the last chorus, all of them basically gave it all as they danced just perfectly, with a lot of energy, and their moves were fantastic as well. Right before the end of this performance, they all started falling one by one on the ground, with water splahing all around them and lights going off. After this performance, the audience stood up for Zendaya, as they gave her a standing ovation.
