Nekesa Mumbi Moody, Associate Press Music Writer, was apparently bored by the MTV VMAs. He gives the awards a negative rating, why? Because apparently it was too normal or too clean.

Here’s what he writes:

“You didn’t bring the thunder. You didn’t bring anything,” host Jack Black, looking at himself in his dressing room mirror, said during one skit, unintentionally summing up the evening…. Nobody except a video choreographer’s mother watches this show for the awards. Fans watch for the FCC-flaunting skits, nearly naked starlets, foul-mouthed speeches and those embarassingly bad dance numbers.

So let me get this straight: Because MTV keeps its show relatively clean, and doesn’t break any laws, it gets slapped with a negative review?
