Lady Gaga dominatrice assoluta degli Mtv Video Music Awards 2020. A The Weeknd, che ricorda Jacob Blake, il premio per il Video of the year
Appariscente, spettacolare e d’impatto. La stella degli Mtv Video Music Awards 2020 è stata sicuramente Lady Gaga. La cantante, tra i performer nella serata di premiazioni che si è tenuta nella notte del 30 agosto a New York, ha catalizzato l’attenzione su di sé prima con una performance da urlo, poi imponendosi come vincitrice assoluta dell’edizione.
I premi di Gaga
Ben cinque i premi che la popstar si è portata a casa: Artist of the Year, Best collaboration per “Rain on Me” con Ariana Grande e Best song per la stessa canzone, Best Cinematography per il video del brano e TriCon Award. Quest’ultimo è l’ultimo nato dei Video Music Awards, creato per omaggiare chi eccelle in più campi. Gaga lo ha fatto nella musica, nel cinema e nel campo della moda/make up.
Gli occhi però, spiega la Dire Giovani (www.diregiovani.it), erano tutti puntati sull’esibizione di Miss Germanotta. La 34enne ha regalato al pubblico un medley di “Chromatica II”, “911”, “Rain on me” con Ariana Grande e “Stupid love”. Mascherina in viso per le due cantanti e per i ballerini. Un unico appello: indossatela.
A The Weeknd “Video of the year”
Il video dell’anno è, invece, “Blinding lights” di The Weeknd. L’artista si è esibito agli MTV Music Awards con il brano in cima a un grattacielo. “È difficile festeggiare, dirò solo giustizia per Jacob Blake e per giustizia Breonna Taylor” ha poi affermato portando l’attualità agli Mtv Video Music Awards 2020.
L’artista infatti ha voluto esprimere la sua vicinanza al movimento Black Lives Matter ritirando il premio sul palco.
