Congratulations to "Louboutins" on being the inaugural winner of Best Song Which Jennifer Lopez Performed, During Which She Fell On Her Ass. I always thought it was going to be a cover of "Dr. Beat."
I thought part of the reason for lip synching -- besides not letting the world know how poorly he/she actually sings -- was so the singer could run around and dance. This trollop was lip synching and STILL couldn't pull off the dancing??
Also, no one stopped to think that her dancers would be sweaty halfway through the performance, and that walking up their backs would make her shoes slippery?
Anyway, that was awesome. Almost as awesome as this instant classic:
I'm listening to James Taylor with video on mute and it was humorous to hear him crone Walk on down a country road as she walks up their backs and fell.
I feel sorry for her, really. But it wasn't so much the fall as much as the high-waist bloomers, support hose, and ass bounce trifecta. Might as well been wearing a medic alert bracelet.
Seriously, everything about this performance was a bad decision, from the horrendous song, the awful concept, and the unnecessary dancer rock pile. Not sure what she was thinking.
@Matt Cherette: For a minute there it looked like he was trying to switch on a lamp, but after the mimed bj I think my brain may have short-circuited. It amped up again however after he ate the face off the androgynous keyboardist who really, really didn't care. The out-of tune screeching really paled in comparison.
@Matt Cherette: I just kept thinking if they panned to a wide-shot of the audience, it'd be just like Springtime For Hitler . Except that all the open-mouthed people would be moms and their tear-stained daughters, with their '' I LUV U ADAMMMMMXXX '' posters all crumpled in their fists.
Can't wait for the news cycle this week!
@Matt Cherette: Thank you for pointing this out too! Everyone said she handled it gracefully, but they obviously missed her FLIPPING shit as she walked offstage. Then she realized the cameras were there and toned it down until she met up with her handlers in the dressing room.
Lame.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: J.Lo's vocal range is four notes. 4. Sing most of her songs, and you'll be able to sing it all in a very, very tiny range. She is talentless, but her butt has carried her a long way.
@heywhat: Agreed. As a Latino/Hispanic (don't know which fits) I think hers is actually below average and never quite understood what the big deal was.

I imagine that she lost her balance because Adam Lambert was warming up backstage. In a related incident, Paris Hilton's newest dog is now sterile.

I can't tell what the lyrics are to this horrid song but it sounds like she's actually saying "I'm fallin'"..

@Adrian Chen: P.S. Here's a couple of good pictures from some of the most "controversial" moments of his performance, if she wants them.
