We still don’t quite know what to make of Taylor Swift‘s performance of “Innocent” at the VMAs tonight (watch video of the performance below). MTV sure hyped up Taylor and Kanye West‘s reunion through out the show, and the whole thing just ended up feeling…weird. She looked amazing, even if her voice was kinda off (which seems to be the usual for her when she sings live). But making a huge moment out of a song that is essentially about one person interrupting another person seems way trivial and over-dramatic. The guy didn’t do any real harm, he just cut her off on national TV. Honestly if Kanye did that to us, we’d probably pen a victory song titled, “We’ve Made It!”
On the other hand, he did totally ruin her big moment last year, so it was nice to see her get it back for a few minutes. But in true Kanye fashion, he stole the show with the last number of the night, a song about toasting “douchebags” and “jerk-offs,” which may as well be called “An Ode to Spencer Pratt, Mel Gibson and the cast of Jersey Shore.”
So yeah, it was weird. What did you think?
