Rap-Up.com || What You Didn’t See at the 2012 VMAs

The VMAs are always known for creating sensational moments, whether it’s Kanye West crashing the stage during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech or Beyoncé showing off her baby bump as a proud Jay-Z looked on. This year was no exception as Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose decided to go public with their baby news and Rihanna and Chris Brown hugged it out on-camera.

There were plenty of photos opps on and off stage. Drake chatted up Katy Perry, Chris Brown sat alongside Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman, Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Lil Wayne held court in the front row, 2 Chainz met his “boo” Katy Perry, and Alicia Keys kicked it backstage with Gabby Douglas.

Check out some of the untelevised moments below.

Chris brown, congrats um hmmm not feeling the hair colour. i wish he clean up his act and actually try to look more mature and presentable. . nicki looks good although i’m not a fan, but you can’t lie the yellow wig look good on her. i love AK new look, i’m happy she change up this new era and her performance was really good. congrats to wiz and amber. haha glad 2 chains got his shine, enjoying the moment and all. congrats to drake and everyone who won an award.

I need to wife up Rihanna asap after seeing these pics.I can see why Rocky grabbed it. When you so hot that you forget about the scary clown in the Halloween costume next to you, then you are doing something right. Oh, and you look hot too Katy. Glad you threw away the cotton candy hair.

@GURL, not really, it’s alot of people that feel the same way. Last year’s VMA show was the highest rated in the past 7 or 8 years of the show because the BIG 3 were performing … Adele, Beyonce & Lady Gaga. The rating report released earlier today stated that last night’s show was on par w/ previous years, just average ratings. But then again, when you have average performers what do you expect? Heard Chris didn’t perform which is a shame, why would you have that talent seated when he could be on stage. Of course Ri opened, she was a mess vocally (as to be expected). The only bright spot in last night’s show was Frank Ocean.

Y’all Chris browns hair is not blue on top. It’s just dyed bright bright blonde like platinum and it’s the lights shining on it making it look blue.
