If you saw the VMAs last night you probably saw Miley Cyrus' performance in which she stripped down and twerked (with? what is the correct phrase here?) Robin Thicke, something I'm sure his wife enjoyed watching very much. Will Smith and his family certainly did:

Who do you think Miley will twerk next?

Beetlejuice?

Do kids even watch MTV any more? I'm 25 and I think all their shows are boring. They're like a 24 hour threadshit.

Why does she have to stick her tongue out every three seconds in the video for that song? Also, nothing hotter than a white girl with a pancake for an rear end twerking.

No. Nobody watches MTV ever. Their advertising reaches zero viewers. That's how they can afford to keep operating.

I must not get out much as the first thing that popped into my mind when I read the word twerk was this Arthurian legend about a dude boar with barber tools in his mane and thought it was a racist joke.

The Smith family is reacting to Lady Gaga's performance, actually.

I find it a little disturbing how much hate there is for Miley, not just here either. Her performance wasn't my thing, but I can admire her for getting on stage and doing something unconventional and weird on television.

I feel like this thread reached peak with the beetlejuice shop, but I am prepared to eat these words.

Edit: Also the performance itself I thought was pretty standard, I mean Madonna has pretty much done the same poo poo at least two or three times on live TV.

Because she's not a talented performer and also she looks like Billy Ray Cyrus.

You consider twerking a worthwhile performance? Next thing you are going to tell me is that daggering is an art form.

My first exposure to twerk was in the phrase "black girls twerk better than white girls because they have better asses for it, it's like genetic or something" so up until a few days ago I didn't know it wasn't racist, so no it's not just you.

Art is pain, daggering results in penis fractures so there's got to be a connection.

I'm not sure, but my gut feeling says that twerk is intransitive.

To my chagrin I have found out that twerking is passé, and the new thing is indeed daggering. Get with the times MTV, fucks sake.

No 'shop replacing Thicke with Will Smith yet, I am thoroughly disappointed.

Edit: would love to contribute one but I'm at work with no computer (that isn't being used for sound mixing.) Alas.

These ladies are booked solid from twerking and might be bringing twerking to germany. So it seems pretty worthwhile.

It definitely hit its peak with mr ghettos classic video "walmart"

(nws, i guess)

mr ghetto went on to try and kill his neighbour and was involved in a 6 hour standoff with a swat team before being charged with three counts of extortion.

I don't think Miley could pull that off. Then again, Michael would have looked pretty silly twerking in rubber underwear.
