Cuddling!
Hubby Jay-Z kept on cuddling his Beyoncé boo in the artist lounge after she had won her first award - he was so proud and it was so amazing to see these two amazing artists interact as man and woman, just simply in love.
Preparing the big moment!
When the cameras aren’t rolling during the commercial break, it’s highly entertaining to see what happens when performers and presenters are waiting for and preparing their big moment.
Take Katy Perry, who reread her lines a couple of times from a giant, white paper that someone was holding up whilst her stylist kept on inspecting her diamond dress and the way it was –ermm- draped around her. She looked gorgeous to me but he wasn’t that easily pleased, nah-ah!
Dancing, wobbling, waving…nerves!
I had a major “aww!” moment when Pete Wentz had a backstage chat with Placebo and Tokio Hotel climbed the stage to kick off their song about a minute later. Singer Bill Kaulitz was standing far, far away from his other band members as he had to walk towards them during the performance. He just kind of stood there being cute & nervous, wobbling where he stood and making it look like a silly, little dance. Genuine as he is, he didn’t hesitate to greet his ecstatic –as ever!- fans with some shy smiles, funny waves and more wobbling. I swear I just wanted to adopt him, he looked like a puppy dog, major squeals!
Knocking over camera guys!
Green Day singer Billie Joe Armstrong wanted to prove he was still punk and leaped off the stage and clearly, not all things about the stunt were that well planned! Five bodyguards rushed to save him from getting swallowed by the greedy hands of the crowd whilst he made his way to the artist lounge where he –accidentally- knocked down a cameraman who had rushed to the scene to show the viewers at home what was going on. Armstrong kept on rocking whilst jumping on every fancy table and chair he bumped into - never dropping one note whilst playing his guitar. Luckily, the poor camera guy was able to shake the pain off and catch up with Billie Joe to film all this, but he must have felt slightly dizzy!
Swearing?!
More Billie…Green Day opened the show with their dazzling guitar sound and crazy rock attitude and to make sure everyone was going to be all wild and enthusiastic during the performance, the hyper singer had ‘motivated’ the crowd with some “C’mon motha******” and “I wanna f****** hear you” ! Now that is swearing indeed but I forgive him, it was actually kinda cute!
Stars being star struck!
Pete Wentz was so overwhelmed by having met Bono and even touching him backstage, that he had to take the time to catch his breath and he needed a moment to sit down before he could continue his backstage interviews. I want to adopt Pete too! Please Ashlee?
Ooh and Georg Listing from Tokio Hotel seems to love David Hasselhoff as well…like, really!
The wonder I call...David Hasselhoff!
Speaking of the Hoff…it took some time to make him look presentable and classy! (did that work out anyway?) Two full hours in make-up for a man is who needs to look naturally good is…well…kinda long! (If we leave eyeliner/eyeshadow/Pete Wentz out of this, of course! Otherwise two hours is ok!) Damn, boo must have slept booze..erm…bad!
+ it took a while before David found the stage to present his award. It looked like was doing a walz, very classy Dave!
Girltalk!
Beyoncé and Shakira are the cutest ever, they’re like best friends! Constantly chatting, sitting next to each other, following each other around,…What a divalicious pair!
Marriage proposals?!
You wouldn’t believe how many fiancées Jody Brenner and Jesse Metcalfe could’ve had by now…phew!
Big dresses!
Dazzling singer Leona Lewis had to literally drag herself on and off stage! That dress was soooo heavy but looked stunning on her.
- Half an hour before the show, holding the golden ticket envelope!
