The 1994 MTV VMAs were CHAOTIC

[@cinedito]

They spot Madonna over the Cher joke not because of her age but because of shade thrown over Cher, and MTV in the 90´s was all about putting women against each other. Kurt Loader couldn't get through an interview without asking a woman "what she thinks" about another woman. You can even read her lips saying, "Cher what?" She didn´t even get the joke.

[@erickamccarroll9574]

They only put white women against each other in the 90’s. Black girl groups were HUGE in the 90’s and they never went against each other.

It's weird how long ago this feels when I'm looking back on it, yet it represents the beginning of the end of MJ, particularly as a global superstar. Madonna would still have a lot of success but never reach the iconic heights of her past work. Rolling Stones were already considered legacy artists at this point. Kurt Cobain was already dead and the famous Seattle grunge sound was becoming more commercialized. Not only was grunge on its way out by the late 90s but very few rock musicians had much commercial success compared to decades prior. I remember when MTV tried to say that bands like Matchbox 20 and Goo Goo Dolls would be the new saviors of rock. Rock wasn't completely dead but MTV no longer felt like the channel to watch to keep up with new genre trends. It started to feel more homogenized as early as the late 90s. It's fascinating to think that all this happened while I was still so young and that so much of my musical tastes were cemented so early.

"Three-minute corn" is corn (probably on the cob) that was cooked quickly and without excessive mess, like in a microwave, in three minutes. Her joke was that the band wanted quickly-made corn.

I hate that I know the context to the kennedy joke but here it is: in the 1988 vp debate, republican senator/vp candidate dan quayle likened himself to the late jfk. democratic senator/vp candidate lloyd bentson, someone who had actually previously worked with jfk, lambasted him on the spot and said among other things, "senator, you are no jack kennedy." she just wanted to make reference to that and connect it to somebody else named kennedy. kind of clunky and definitely a sign of the times but a little more interesting if you know what she's referencing lmao. so excited to see more videos of yours in the new year!! I feel like you're gonna blow up eta kennedy is now a libertarian political commentator and roseanne is a demented qanon supporter so that's also a fun little layer of weirdness!

“Jack Kennedy” was a nickname for President John F. Kennedy. His nephew, Robert F. Kennedy attempted to primary President Biden for the Democratic nomination, but he’s off the rails (vaccines, conspiracies etc) and is now running as an Independent. Roseanne has also dived into conspiracy territory as well.

6:32 Roseanne’s comments are a play on words that Senator Lloyd Bentsen said to Future VP Dan Quayle in 1988 during the VP debate. Quayle compared his experience to “Jack Kennedy” (JFK’s nickname) to which Bentsen replied “senator I knew Jack Kennedy. I served with Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator you’re no Jack Kennedy.” I assume the joke here is that it’s Kennedy’s name that’s now the thing being turned around.

Now I don’t know if Kennedy said anything about Martha Quinn, or if you will end up seeing this, but the joke is a clear reference to the 1988 US Vice Presidential Debate between Sen. Lloyd Bentsen the democrat and Sen. Dan Quayle the republican. Quayle who compared himself to President John 'Jack' F Kennedy, a democrat,(who was assassinated in 1963) by saying he said as much experience as Jack Kennedy (this debate wasn't the first time he had compared himself to Kennedy) after this comparison Bentsen responded 'Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you are no Jack Kennedy.' It is remembered in the US by political junkies as one of the greatest debate moments of all time.

Damn, celebrities where so real back in the 90’s, I miss that

[@dawnieb.7394]

In the 90s AND 80s. Gaga is about the only one these days who is similar (check out her legendary performance on the 2009 VMAs).

Hey boo! The Kennedy comment Roseanne made was actually a play on a vice presidential debate moment that happened where the Republican candidate had likenwd himself to Jack Kennedy and his opponent responded with "I knew Jack Kennedy. I served with Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine, and you, sir are no Jack Kennedy." But that quote happened during the late 80s so it's a really random kind of Association the only political buff like myself would really know. Love you Henderson!

[@kevinriehl5906]

Roseanne's Kennedy comments were a reference to the 1988 vice presidential debates between Dan Quayle and Lloyd Bentsen.

You guys snoop.dogg was so fine with curly hair

[@bees.857]

You know, I read your comment before I saw Snoop and I was like NUH UH, HE AIN'T GONNA BE FINE.... and he was 😍😍😍

[@stevenjneptuneman8409]

FWIW, Michael Stipe was friends with Adam Yauch, so odds are, he either knew ahead of time, or took it as a harmless prank.

People getting interrupted at the VMAs, how many times does this have to keep happening☠☠☠

I see your beautiful eyes and face, my heart skips a beat and I must click.

I was watching that when I was 18. Good times. I was a big Aerosmith and Tom Petty fan, so I went away pretty happy with the results. Man, just seeing my crushes at the time all there: Lisa Loeb, Bjork, and Daisy Fuentes. Such a wonderful time. Thanks for making me remember it.

Some background, the Smashing Pumpkins used to do a lot of acid. Billy Corgan once described their first album Gish as "four kids on acid". Corgan once explained that their performance of Disarmed at the 1994 VMAs was the moment that caused him to afterwards realize that he had a drug problem and needed to quit. According to Corgan, he was so out of his mind on acid during the performance that he actually broke 2 strings and had a mental breakdown on stage, leading to him smashing his guitar and mic stand and storming off stage, almost falling on his face when he tripped on the chord.

[@kingtarly499]

The choir on that guy was his fans overwhelmingly showing him love not no weird ish. WTH is good with the world lol

[@SummerLorenzsonn]

sir if you need a gen x'er to help you with these 90s show references that you don't know, hmu

[@GinArenas]

I am waiting for you to do reviews of international MTV awards.. such as the legendary 2008 MTV Latinoamerica in which Katy Perry fell off a huge cake and could not stand up for her life because she kept slipping.😂😂

[@soyxarlie]

I'm from NICARAGUA and I watched this MTV 2008 AWARDS live! And this award show is ICONIC

[@rebeccadavis5958]

I love these videos!

[@spinflux]

Bjork was so amazing, I loved her in the 90s! If anybody wants to see just how fun and full of talent she was, unfettered, her 1997 concert at Sheperds Bush Empire is on KZbin and she plays all of her best songs.

[@ivyblack08]

you should do a video on the 1992 vmas that shit was insane

[@p.d.l7023]

I remember driving to my hospital rounds and they played that Beck song every hour!

[@p.d.l7023]

Then, I'd come home and see that Last Dance with Mary Jane video, after working with corpses all day and realizing, "Do they think that we phuck the corpses?! Ew!!!"

[@larae6885]

Snoop performance was epic❤ tom petty too. Omg what a year 😊

[@Slizew]

Side note>I saw Kennedy doing an interview on CBS This Morning a few years ago

[@twannifufu]

I remember watching that kiss live. It was so awkward.

[@nsasupporter7557]

I didn’t know that the song “Loser” by Beck was that old

Oh the memories, I wish I could rewind time to when u didn’t have to be absolutely perfect?
