The Most Iconic VMA Performances: Lady Gaga’s Paparazzi Deserves to Win

For the first time ever, the Vmas have introduced the most iconic performance category for this year’s award show. And, of course, Lady Gaga’s 2009 performance of paparazzi was nominated, and it should win. Here are all of the other nominees. Beyonce’s love on top in 2,011. That was when she announced her pregnancy with Blue Ivy. That was, I would say, an iconic moment, but not the most iconic VMA performance. And we have Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Madonna and Missy Elliott. That was when they all, like, made out. Eminem singing The Real Slim Shady, Katy Perry singing Roar, Lady Gaga’s Paparazzi, Madonna like a Virgin, and Taylor Swift. You belong with me. This Gaga performance was next level. I’m not even lying when I said it changes lives. Just watch. Stunning show stopping. Amazing. And it should take home this award. But let me know what you think in the comments.
