Billboard Awards 2003 (1 Viewer)

Anyone else see the crappy Billboard Awards. They seemed to bleep out a lot of Triumph's stuff, and cut away to a still image during Pink's performance a couple of times but Paris Hilton's sister, Slutty Hilton clearly got away with shit and fucken.

R. Kelly's performance at the end was cool, but then again I'm a fan.

Well, since the FCC has said non-sexual use of the word is OK, you'll probably hear it more and more.

It was Nicole Richie, actually. They got the first "cow shit", but missed the second "cow shit" and the "fucking". Nice.

That wasn't Paris' sister. That was the other chick from their "unreality" show.

I tuned in for the sole purpose of seeing the live performance of Evanescence which was fantastic and which did not appear to be lip-synched. I really like this band and hope they hang around. Unfortunately it was in the second hour of the show and I had to sit through some really painful performances and presentations.

Highlight:

Stevie Wonder presented Sting with the Century award. Sting's acceptance speech was humble, non-political and all about music. It was wonderful.

Low-low-light:

Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey are absolutely dreadful. I was cringing during their senseless banter which always drifted to their sex life. They must be stopped.

Thats the only reason I kept flipping to it too. I happened to get up but hit pause on my dvr so I could ff through to find the Evanescence performance. I wish they would have done a different song though, they always do that one on shows like this.

I like their whole album as well, but "Bring Me to Life" was the song that won the award for "Best Soundtrack Single". That's probably why they performed that one.

It still sounded very fresh and not a cookie cutter version of the album version.

by the by, did you guys catch celine dion's dress? I'm not a fan of her music but I'll support anything low-rise!

Kinda reminds me of the Diva's dress in the 5th Element. I wouldn't mind seeing more like this in the future.

The censoring was kind of pointless. I doubt Pink was doing anything that risky.

Whoever selects what gets censored has some serious issues.
