The 2015 Video Music Awards were highly anticipated for many reasons, but mostly because it is one awards show that has not followed the rules when it comes to being polite and taking it easy on the sensors. It was very clear that MTV was aiming for the shock factor when they named polarizing and controversial 22-year-old popstar Miley Cyrus as the host. As was expected, Cyrus donned next to nothing for many of her outfits and it all started on the red carpet where many stars took full advantage of the “barely-there” trend that has taken over in fashion. If it wasn’t a baring-all look, than it was some other sort of wackiness that dominated the outfits of the red carpet, leading to quite a list of “what was that?!” moments before the stars even entered the Microsoft Theater and took the stage.
6. Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber had himself quite the weekend. The Canadian popstar released his new single “What Do You Mean?” on Friday, August 29th and then took to the VMAs on Sunday to perform his new hit, and apparently it was so powerful it reduced him to tears. What we’re crying about though is his ridiculous red carpet style. While his ripped jeans, button up and leather jacket did him no favors, it was his floppy hairstyle that really made it go from bad to worse. What do you mean you can’t afford a stylist Justin?
