Sunday August 28....


Yo, Britney I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you finish, but Amy Winehouse is one of the greatest UK musicians of all time!! One of the best UK jazz musicians of all time !!!!!!!!!

*Kanye hands microphone back to Britney Spears and shrugs his shoulders*

If Kanye did that I would be so happy

Elsie, try and with hold judgement on Gaga. her persona and stage act aside, she is really talented and has alot of soul. i hope to see Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, the true artist that is Gaga come out for Amy. I think she will pull it off...

l think shell do great . Girls got powerful vocals . I bet money she will be wearing something Amy inspired . wonder what it would look like if she does.

I'm sorry, but I find her obnoxious. Nor do I like her jazzy attempts. So I am hoping she'll stay out of it. She doesn't have to be a part of every single thing.

I only believe in Tone Bennett and Adele... In my opinion, they are the most appropriate for this kind of tribute...

Elsie I can't find a more reliable link than NME http://www.nme.com/n...winehouse/58804 but it seems to be all over Twitter. A lot more than any other rumoured line-up for the tribute

I don't know what to think about this, I actually like Gaga a lot, but she doesn't have anything in common with Amy and they're different in any possible way, I'd say. But I'd rather have her and Adele, with MTV standards they could've thrown in Katy Perry or Selena Gomez or something.

When I made the Kanye comment at the top of the page I was obviously joking LOL but.....it made me think......Do you guys think Kanye would be crazy enough to do it?

Personally I would like him to run on stage when Britney is performing and say something like "Amy Winehouse was more talented and passionate about her music than your lip synching self!!" And run off....

Lmao.

kanye was drunk & grieving the death of his mother when he came up on stage during the taylor swift incident, its something he regrets & has apologised for so i doubt he'd do it again.

i'm not a gaga fan so i have zero interest in seeing her perform, maybe she'll well though so i wont write her off without seeing the performance, if i decide to watch it. i think an amy winehouse tribute would be quite emotional to watch...

Yeah I actually love Kanye and know about him coming on the 2009 pre award show with a bottle of liquor....its just a fantasy I have for someone to ruin Britney's night.

[Dani14]

Sorry but i want to be sure... Will it be live on European MTV? And i guess it will take place in the evening. So it will be the morning of Monday for us, right?

[Elsie]

Yeah, it'll be Monday morning, around 2 or 3 am.

I have to say just this one thing and don't mean to take the spotlight away from the tribute to Amy (which is the only reason I will watch the awards):

I think it is important to remember that the same type of negativity the press has given Brittany in the past was also unfortunately the same smut they flung about Amy. Imagine how awful it must feel to have your body, less than flattering spread on the front of rags at the checkoutline of a grocery? they have been very unkind in the past, and threw her problems out there and aired them loudly. Her divorce, her weight problems, her car accident, her little 'craziness' stint after her divorce, her child custody problems, etc. and how would I know? not because I am a fan of Brittany but it was flung in your face unwanted at the grocery store checkout, on the news, etc. the girl has had to make big strides to overcome all that public humiliation. I have to give her credit for that. she does have a big fan base too, just as Amy does. Now, for me personally there is absolutely no comparison. It is that boxed, canned sound but that is just my opinion.

I have to think that Amy would have somehow felt a bit of empathy for the girl. Amy had a huge heart and she understood those that were troubled, probably more than we can imagine. I happen to think that she always stuck up for the underdog. I know it troubles me, and makes me feel so hurt when I read slandering things about Amy.

just my 2 cents.

....I just rise above it all and tell myself that the greatest tribute that could be paid is that Tony Bennett is returning to the MTV awards ceremony for the first time since 1993 and at the age of 80 something. 85 maybe? wow....couldn't get any better than that, folks.

Yeah I know that's why I said all these feelings I have are against Britney the music artist. I don't have ill feelings to her as a person(obviously since I don't know her). By the way I hope that doesn't sound like I consider musicians not to be humans or average people. I just consider a lot of them to be completely different than the music they make(in good ways and bad).

Sorry if I have been coming down on Britney so hard , these are just personal opinions I had against her as a musician.

I would like to like her....I just wish she would have acted more like a true artist during her career when she had a chance. Its really hard to put into words what I mean....Hopefully someone gets what I'm trying to say somewhat
