The 10 Best Parts Of Award Shows

Most of the time, I do not bother with music award shows. Regardless of who determines the recipient of the award, it never seems as though award shows really celebrate the musicians or music. In addition, the "live performances" are often dry and unoriginal. As a result, I really do not find awards shows very entertaining and settle down with some studying or some Netflix instead. But, occasionally, my roommates, friends, or family coerce me into a viewing. This year, I was forced to watch the 2015 American Music Awards. Inspired by that experience, here are my favorite parts of award shows.

1. Nicki Minaj's reactions



2. Nicki Minaj's tweets about the awards and/or the award shows


3. Nicki Minaj calling people out



4. Nicki Minaj's AMAZING acceptance speeches




5. Nicki Minaj's incredible performances



6. Nicki Minaj's fashion choices


8. Nicki Minaj's ass(ets)


9. Nicki Minaj's costumes



10. Time after time, Nicki Minaj always brings something interesting to the show

There is not much else to look forward to in these award shows.

Through the cheesy introductions, awkward jokes, and weird audience dancing, Nicki remains a beacon of quality entertainment. Nicki is not only a master at her craft, she constantly proves herself to be a role model for young, aspiring musicians everywhere.

A tip to award organizers everywhere: just invite Nicki. It is all you need to ensure your award show will be entertaining. It might mean your shows do not go as planned, but it does mean that you will have a good time.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
