A boring song with a performance like that. People love it, when she performs acoustic, too. 
And she would get press by doing something not that shocking, but showing her voice.   |  This would be the iconic performance she needs to rule the VMA's for the 3rd year in a row  |

I wish the Haus would be on ATRL.   
I think she's gonna put more effort in the VMA's though, since Britney, Bey, etc. will be there, too.  |

 I wish they would bring back the Best R&B video... If your name is not Beyonce, other Black females like Mary J. Blige, Kelly Rowland, Keyshia Cole etc... don't get no shine from MTV    |

 I love how everyone is underestimating JLo...
 She's had the BIGGEST music video of 2011. BY FAR. No one can doubt it. If On the Floor doesn't get nominated and win, it will be one of the biggest snubs in VMA history. It's not her best video. But it had the biggest impact this year.
 
 300million+ views in 6 months don't lie! She left every other video in the dust.
 
 She deserves a nom for:
 
 Best Collaboration
 Female Video
 Pop Video
 Video of the Year

Run The World 
Whip My Hair 
Look at Me Now 
**** You 
Motivation
 
Real R&B still wouldn't get shine. Sadly, this isn't 1998.  |

 |  You've got a good point. Except I would switch LAMN with Deuces or She Ain't You, just because LAMN is more hip hop. Anyway, regardless R&B singers like Melanie Fiona, Marsha Ambrosious, Janelle Monae, Jennifer Hudson and ecetra still wouldn't get nominated. R&B according to MTV only applies to the select few artists that are extremely popular and are pretty much considered pop artists anyway. (Beyonce, Rihanna, Cb, Usher).   |
