MTV VMA rundown part 1

In true (not quite a Lady) Gaga form, (s)he managed to get everyone talking with an opening number not quite like any other. It's quite well known that Gaga likes cross dressing and has previously done photoshoots as her male alter-ego Joe Calderone. No fancy dress, no meat outfits, no cocoons, just a white tee, black slacks and a little painted on stubble.

It got everyone talking, but not quite as much as Beyonce's pregnancy announcement. She was positively glowing in a great orange gown, showing off her bump to the press on the red carpet, before taking the stage to perform 'Love on Top'

Given the recent passing of troubled singer Amy Winehouse, there was a rather upbeat and touching tribute given in her honor. Russell Brand and Tony Bennett said a few words and Bruno Mars knocked out a great version of 'Valerie' under a large portrait of the singer with her iconic eyeliner and red lipstick.
Tony Bennett presented behind the scenes footage of himself recording a duet with Winehouse, which will be released as a single and the profits will go to charity.
