Throwing Shade on the Alleged Shade at the VMAs ...

By Lyndsie

Why does the internet try to cause drama where there is no drama? This year's VMAs had enough drama on their own – the snake snafu during Nicki Minaj's rehearsal, the shooting at Chris Brown's pre-VMAs party – so there's no need to create shade where there is no shade. People are always trying to create beefs between actors, actresses, and musicians, and yet there's rarely any there there, if you get what I mean.

Right now I'm specifically calling out the idea that both Miley Cyrus and Chelsea Handler threw shade at Taylor Swift, regarding her “Shake It Off” performance. Outlets like Us, Buzzfeed (where, to be fair, I spend most of my life), and others are insisting that Miley has been waiting to throw some snark Taylor's way since last year's VMAs, when T-Swift had, well, a reaction to Miley's scandalous performance – you know, along with everyone else at the show, and the rest of the world in general. You've probably seen GIFs of an allegedly “blank-eyed” Cyrus watching Swift's performance. I do not think there's any shade there.

Chelsea Handler purportedly threw shade as well, by referring to Taylor – and her dancing – as “SO white.” I think maybe Handler is just being, you know a comedian. Then, too, Katy Perry and Sam Smith apparently threw shade at Miley while her date, a homeless youth, gave an impassioned plea as he accepted an award on her behalf. J-Lo allegedly threw shade at Miley as well, via a dirty look. Oh, and Miley apparently called Ed Sheeran an “a**hole.”

Is this not some overblown BS? I'm officially throwing shade at everybody. Shade, shade, shade!

I don't know why there's so much hate on miley. I get it maybe she's trying to find herself or something. There are a lot of vulgar celebrities, okay? Why do you have to blame her only? Secondly, as for Taylor swift, I like her and I like get songs but it's also questionable that if she's the perfect person you think she is. You don't know that. That's just what the media wants you to believe.

*like her songs

Miley is a drama queen!

You forgot jlo face to everyone and Kim and co throughout performances ! Why were they there again ?

Guy Miley brought ends up having a warrant out for his arrest. If one wants to bring attention to a cause do it with some thought involved. Taylor has class. Miley acts slutty. What do people want their children seeing???

what is " shade " meaning... ha like putting someone down??

Idk why people are throwing shade on how her date accepted her award.He's homeless and it's obvious that there's a struggle to not having a home and he gave awareness and told how you can help that's one of the classiest and kindest things I've seen Miley do and I'm not a fan of the skimpy outfits but she dressed well too and I do agree that the dance was white because I saw over a couple times the dancing wasn't paired with the beat and how did all of this shade turn into a million things

I honestly hate shake it off. Lyrics are shallow, melodies are simple and the message is very mainstream. Racist music video too.

Miley Cyrus is disgusting.....Taylor Swift has way better class then Miley.....the VMA's get worst every single year why bother watching.....but anything can happen on any award show
