Jordin Sparks - MTV VMAs 2008

Jordin is a smart cookie. I love what she said.

VMAs were a great big ol bomb, though. Lousy, Lousy show.

I think it’s cool she stood out for them..
We all know Russell just meant to joke, though, not be taken so seriously.. but still. You go girl.

she was speaking up for herself, saying she has one too, ….and not having one doesn’t mean you’re a ****, things aren’t black and white.

That’s a stupid comment actually.
If ur having sex ur a ****?

Great!
They censored my $lut and kept Jordin’s!

On a more positive note, she looks cute!

I think it was cool but I don’t think she was standing up for JB
She wears one too.

that comedian was riculous! he couldn’t make good jokes!

he had to mention jb the entire show!

Being made fun of at the Vmas comes with the territory of being famous. Past hosts made fun of Nsync and Backstreet boys so i dont think Russell crossed the line. He is hilarious by the way.

i was really pissed off by what she said!!! basically impying that anyone who doesnt wear one of thoose stupid little rings is a ****! uhhhhhh NO jordin we are just normal and young! ppl only wear thoose damn rings cuz its a trend!oh and this is coming from a HUGE jordin sparks fan, im not a hater! i was just really offended by what she said!

WAY TO GO! I think that that weird guy should go and stay in his own country if he is going to be making fun of our TALENT when he doesn’t have any!!!!!!!!!!!! The Jonas Brothers are amazing and it rocks that they still are virgins! You don’t need to have sex to have a good teanage stage in life! NO ONE WANTS THAT GUY BACK! Jst stay in the UK BUDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really applaud Jordin for standing standing up for the Jonas Brothers, herself, and anyone else with the same beliefs as them. I was really offened by what Russell said..

as far as the people who are saying theyre mad about what she said, don’t take things so literal. you and I both know she meant people who sleep with just a bunch of random people, as Russell was very openly talking about. dating someone and having sex is one thing, but just sleeping with everyone you see is another.

by the way, she looked gorgeous!

prissy little b i t c h. um im still a virgin but i don’t need to ANNOUNCE it to the world with a CHEAP little ring.

thank goodness someone said something. I had never heard of Russell Brand before the VMAs, and he left a horrible first impression. Just because the Jonas Brothers are 10 times more famous than you will ever be (Even in the UK), doesnt mean you get to bash them for religious beliefs. I cant even believe they let him say that…You know you are an idiot when Paris Hilton disagrees with you.

Russell Brand screwed up the whole show and I am very disapointed MTV let their host use the awards show as a political advertisement, and they let him make fun of people that were performing, presenting, and accepting awards at the very same show..

you’re not a **** anita, but you are nasty

daisy, Europeans are not funny. russell suck **** hahaha get it? **** hahaha

Also, ye, Rusell was ripping the p*iss outta a the JoBros but people need to grow some skin - he was blates just doing it for a laugh. And I agree with GossipGirl, the rings ARE slightly retarded because its like what, you need a ring to tell you not to do it, why don’t you just not do it fullstop? At the end of the day, a rings got nothing to do with it, it doesn’t seal off your sexual organs, it’s up to the individual to excercise control.

I admire her for standing up for what she believes in but I don’t think that people who have sex are ******. I understand that he was just trying to be funny and as a host it’s his job to “shock.” But she should know better than to take anything like that seriously. She should have laugh it off or she should have re-worded what she said so that it didn’t sound like she thought that she was better than people who have sex cause that’s what it sounded like to me.

A snap judgement on both of their parts if you ask me.

Good for her. She sounded nervous and that was obviously unscripted. I don’t think she meant to imply that not wearing one makes you a ****. Her wording could have been better - but I have to give her a LOT of credit for going up against someone as slick and slimy as Russell Brand.

Oh and btw: If anyone is offended by Jordin’s comment, then you must be a ****. I mean, I’m ure until marriage, but I don’t have a ring. I’m not offended though because I know for a fact that I’m not a sl*t. If you get mad, then you must sleep around a lot or the comment wouldn’t even bother you…

Never heard of this stupid cow….but…..

Calling all others who don’t wear a purity ring a **** is an amazingly diplomatic statement.

I won’t bother to argue her “statement” because it’s obvious her lack of ability to form a sentence that actually states her thoughts is so lacking that it’s laughable. Ergo, she has no clue what came out of her mouth and it probably took several people to explain her ENORMOUS gaffe.

Russel Brand was at least performing a comedy routine.

Caveat: most TMZ readers, see above, don’t recognize her enormous gaffe either, so it’s fair to assume, they also won’t understand my comment.

jordan sparks is being let go from her record company……….she sucks!!! fat ****!!!!

i think that its perfectly fine.
and she should stand up for herself, just becuase the jonas brothers are more known for having purity rings. it doesnt mean their the only people that should be made fun of. and no one tells and makes fun of russel brand about his personal problems and decisions. and the jb shouldnt be blamed for being such good and grounded people. the jonas brothers are amazing and well grounded. they are the real people that are going to succeed in this life.

This is not meant to be harsh, but more like advice from someone who cares. If you were offended, maybe you feel guilty and should rethink the casual sex “with people you date” thing. GO JORDIN AND JOBROS. They have a clear conscience each new morning and have kept a special part of themselves for that right person. Don’t casually give it away.

if you have sex you’re not necessarily a **** either, and there are people WITHOUT promise rings that remain chaste too. She snapped over nothing, Brand was only making jokes.

she looks massive! i know she’s young and all but i thought she’d have lost all that fat by now..

Yay Jordin!!! <33

actually, if your a christian having sex before marriage does make you a $lut. and I really appreciate her for standing up like that, Russel was not funny and as soon as he turned those awards political I changed it. His jokes weren’t funny and were offensive. I thought the awards were stupid and totally bombed. Try better next time MTV. And why make fun of people better than you? GO JB, Go Jordin! :) I look up to you!

Jordan was horrible…. she really pissed me off.

Russell crossed the line ??? Probably! but is that what he is suppost to do. He is a comedian. Comedian always crossed the line!

I have two choices in my live!!!
Or I`m **** or i have to wear a virginity ring?????? hahahah….
Live in the real world jordan!!!

HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR….TAKE A JOKE FAT ASS!!!!

Jordan is awfull…. hate her!!!

YE!!
way to speak your mind Jordin :P
so proud– you should have won the best new artist by the way..

i was so mad that u didnt!!
(at least miley cyrus didnt win :P)

yay jordin finally someone said something i was getting soo pissed off i mean ok one or two jokes but he wouldnt shutt up

i love the jonas brothers and jordin sparks and she wasnt saying that if u dont have one ur a slutt she was just sticking up for the ppl that so wear them like herself and for that i thank her

and joe kev and nickk u guyss shouldnt be ashamedd soooooo many ppl got ur backks!!!! including me =)

Sorry, big fug feet!

I’m guessing that the majority of the people who say he isn’t funny are American and don’t get British humour. Russell is one of Britain’s best comedians and a lot of people probably don’t get/understand him because he’s quick and his vocabulary is out of this frickin world!
———————————————————————————————————–
Oh spare me the usual bullshyt that Americans don’t get British humor. I love Ricky Gervais and Sacha Baron Cohen, but Russell Brand is not funny. First of all, who is he to lecture an American audience on US politics and who to vote for? I seem to recall you Brits getting your panties in a bunch when you were criticized by the Chinese for your dismal closing ceremony program. Nobody likes to be lectured about their country from a foreigner.

The Jonas Brother’s criticism is par for the course. Chris Rock did the same to Justin T, NSync and Britney. However, the Jonas Bros. are young and it was inappropriate to single them out and hammer away at them all night. A lot of the tv audience were impressionable teens, what kind of message is Brand sending out? People defending his comments are the same ones who called Jamie Lynn Spears a ****!

If Americans don’t get the Brit humor the simple solution would be to keep your comedians in Britain and Europe. By the reaction last night, I am sure the audience at the VMAs wished you had.

I was very, very happy that Jordin said that, Russell deserved to be put in his place. His jokes got to the point where they weren’t even funny anymore.

I was very disappointed in the VMA’s this year. The best act easily was the Jonas Bros. It’s a shame they didn’t win anything…

I’m sorry but I think this was highly ignorant of her. Not every person that doesn’t wear a promise ring is sleeping around. Some virgins are still thinking out a promise like that or just don’t want to make it. + It was a joke people cracked jokes on T.I. and Britney spears you don’t see them flipping out. And look at all the other celebrities who have made the same promise…. Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson… it doesn’t always end up with that person keeping there promise or staying with the person they waited to have a sexual relationship with. Shes just taking that whole “role-model” thing too far since she obviously shouldn’t make kids feel if they don’t make a promise there *****.

You go Jordin!!!!!
That stupid ******* host deserves to die

wooo-who! go jordan. russel was soooo ignorant with his jokes. they shouldnt even be considered jokes cuz they werent even funny. he made a total idiot of himself last night.

omg, shes huge!

What she said was not good. So she’s saying that everyone that doesn’t choose to wait until marriage is a ****? I think it was a really dumb comment.

And I love russell Brand

I think that was really stupid of her to say. So I’m a **** if I don’t have a ******* ring? Wow she really is a smart cookie -_- I’m actually waiting till I’m married, but I need to buy a thousand dollar ring to prove that? Russell was ******* joking! Its called a sense of humor, look it up. Yeah let the no talent Jonas brothers keep that ring but that doesn’t mean ****. They could one day just take it off and screw any girl they want. So basically they wasted their money on nothing. You could have beliefs and not have a ******* tiffany ring to prove it. Theres a lot of kids out there who want to wait till their married and don’t have a ******* ring, better yet they cant even afford one. Does that make them a ****? All I’m saying is that Jordan Sparks really needs to choose her words correctly. And please, could everyone get over the Jonas brothers?! Please tell me whats so talented about them? They sound like their crying! I really cant listen to their music cause it gives me the biggest ******* headache of life! And they really aren’t that good looking. They look like monkeys. Hey no one is perfect but really get off their dicks! This one girl told me that people are actually comparing them to the Beatles! I wanted to puke right there in front of her ******* face. The Beatles are legend and actually had talent. What do the Jonas brothers have? A ******* stylest who with out her they have NOTHING!

of course shes a virgin. lol. what a fat a**. i think purity rings are such a joke. why are you boasting about it, clearly you want people to applaud you for being a virgin. im a catholic girl, not a virgin, and not a ****.

The Jonas Brothers will be S.haggin in no time, if not already. Their purity rings are just for show. Any remember the Britney ‘I’m a virgin’ Spears incident?

@raye: yeah, snatch-mouth and american comedy is…like, way better and stuff, right? Wait let me watch my Dane Cook DVD and vomit all over myself.

And also, to the people who wear “chastity rings”. If you’re a guy, you’re probably gay. If you’re a girl, you’re probably ugly.

Hey Jordin, why stop at a promise ring, why not wear a burkha?

Hahaha. Because not wearing a purity ring automatically makes you a ****, even if you aren’t out there having sex.

Smart wording, Jordin…

(ps: I respect her and others for making that decision, but man, her phrasing of that was bad. Unless that is what she truly thinks…then I might lose a bit of that respect.)

cb and alex, you’re right. They only wear those rings so they can mention it every five minutes. They want to be applauded for having the “self-control” and “convictions” the rest of the world is lacking. If they did it for the right reasons only people who wanted to f-u-c-k them would know about that “faith ring”.

I LOVED RUSSELL BRAND!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am one of the few americans with a sense of humour!

I think Jordin could have made her point better. It’s like she’s saying if you have sex you’re automatically a ****.

I love JB and their purity rings too, but because they’re doing what they believe in not what someone else is telling them to. It’s okay to have a purity ring, and it’s okay to not have a purity ring. Geez.

daisy I get British humor- like Benny Hill and Monty Python and I can assure you that Brand is not either of those two. I did not find him funny at all. He was struggling the whole night to come up with something.

the thing is a girl or boy does not have to wear a ring to not be a **** either.
its not about not being aslut..it’s about the ring (ridiculous)

I am actually a great fan of Jordin. But I think she over reacted this time. Rusell is a comedian and was simply doing his job. He might have said so many things but no need to be mad about. Besides where is this idea of wearing rings to prove one self come from? Where is it written in the bible? Poeple are free about their choices. Wearing a ring is no sign of purity and NOT wearing one does not obviously make you a s–t. Is .Is it not this same person who had an open crush for Chris B? Is she trying to cover her disappointment on others? What would have happened if Chris B.said yes to her? Before you answer this question remember, NEVER SAY NEVER and that NONE IS PERFECT BUT GOD. Jordin is only human. I could sleep with a man during dating,but that does not make me a s–t. Jordin control yourself next time. I hope you maintain the image you are portraying now but as you do so .PRAY A LOT MORE. I wish you Luck

she’s so fat, and she wanted to go out with chris brown - no way will he go with that huge beast. stick with thin rihanna, chris!

@ Go Away Reality-tv DOG .
lol. RIGHT ON.

@107

but not if you’re in your 30s or above, right? darn those randy septuagenarians! fornicating away with not a smidgeon on their consciences…or a wedding ring! you amuse me!

seriously,i cannot understand how anyone thinks this knee jerk reaction ( i hope ) portrays this jordin girl in a good light…at best she comes off as humourless and singularly lacking in tact, at worst she’s downright offensive, ignorant and bigoted against beliefs that differ from hers. either way she seems to have a bit of an overwhelming need for attention. no publicity like provocation, eh? way to grab the headlines, girl!

goo jordin!!!! woot!
im glad ppl are seeing the right causes to purity rings!
a promise to god,a bout not losing it is totally committed & fantastic!!!!

who cares for what all the haters say! there jus jealous, cuz they proballi went to fast, of sex..or made the wrong choice. who knows:S
but one’s thing, is for sure, that atleast the jb’s aren’t like ne one else, for that matter, to be wasted.. and be a man *****!
jordin knows exactly where she comes from this& it shows she believes in it too:P
paris not soo much =S
she’s not a virgin..yet she, defends ppl who are O.O
kk, …atleast we see a side to her, that says she does care about the issues, she went through b4.

russel was making jokes she didnt need to say anything
take a joke
the jonas brothers didnt care so why should she

That Comedian guy pissed me off! I was SO mad when he made fun of The Jonas Brothers! So Jordan THANK YOU SO MUCH for sticking up for them!

She’s fat

This just shows that the US is not ready for Russell Brand.. His jokes are too European/British. And I’m just basing this on what people are saying in the comments about how his jokes “weren’t even that funny”. I’m not at all talking about his jokes about the Jonas Brothers.. Although he did just joke, it what we do in Europe.. If you listen to Radio 1, the radio hosts are dissing different people, doing jokes and it’s all just good fun. That’s probably what he meant by doing those jokes about the Jonas Brothers. Russell Brand probably thinks it’s cool that people have purity rings and can hold out until marriage, because he probably can’t understand it. He likes $ex way to much to ever give it up.

sorry to dissapoint, but i live in argentina and ppl make jokes too, but not as the ones that guy did on the VMA’S, not only because of what he said about nick joe and kev but for all the other things he said before that. he was rude and that’s it, nobody cares if he’s british or american or if he lives in mars
jonassssss pasion

Duh if you have sex and your not married then your a $lut there no other anwser. I thinks its great that the jb and Jordan wears one. THere showing this $ex crazed world that the care more about themself then to just follow what everyone else is doing. So they might not sing good but at leat there standing up aginst the rest of the world!!!!!!!!!

GO JORDIN!
Yea, it came out a little wrong implying that those that do have sex are *****, but come on, Brand was an idiot. He made it seem like those who don’t have sex should be outcasted. What a terrible host! MTV bombed this year!!!

I think Jordin sticking up for the Jonas Brothers was AMAZING!

:D

to 120:
okay, so not european, british then. I’m just saying that Russell Brand is pretty famous in Britain, so he’s doing something right.. And maybe America’s just not ready for it..
