Here's How Things Are Shaking Down In Our Ultimate VMA Showdown

Posted 8/18/11 1:15 pm EST by in Newsroom Poll, VMAs

We are just about a week into our Ultimate VMA Showdown and the polls are really heating up.

Classic MTV artists like Michael Jackson, Bon Jovi and, in some categories, Madonna are garnering big numbers, leaving more recent artists like Lady Gaga and Britney Spears, who typically dominate our polls, struggling to keep up.

How’s your favorite artist faring so far? Let’s take a look.

Most Iconic VMA Performance

This category has basically turned into a showdown between Michael Jackson and Bon Jovi. MJ’s medley of hits at the 1995 VMAs is leading the way with 45 percent of the vote, though Bon Jovi’s take on their classic “Wanted Dead or Alive” from the 1989 show trails it by less than 2 percent. The number separating the two is insanely small, respective to the crazy amount of votes cast in this category (which we will reveal after polls close).

Our two main girls, Gaga and Britney, are in third and fourth place, respectively, though they trail the two leaders substantially and are themselves separated by just 0.1 percent. That said, the number of votes for Gaga’s 2009 performance of “Paparazzi” and Britney’s sexy “I’m A Slave 4 U” from the 2001 VMAs are substantial. Very substantial.

Can they catch up to the poll leaders? Maybe. Keep voting, Gaga and Britney fans, your girls need you!
Surprisingly less substantial are the number of votes for Madonna’s “Like a Virgin” from the first-ever VMAs in 1984. It’s one of the most known and commented upon performances in VMA history – and many look at it as one of the major events that kicked Madonna’s career into the pop stratosphere – yet it is holding court with a mere 0.84 percent of the vote. Weird. Read More...
