Lady Gaga a no-show at 2011 VMAs …
There were no meat dresses at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night. Lady Gaga was a no-show, and stepping in for the iconic singer was her male alter ego Jo Calderone.
There were no outrageous outfits this year to critique because the Italian dude stayed in character for the duration, in his dirty white t-shirt, black pants and jacket.
During Jo’s monologue, the camera panned the shell-shocked audience, many with mouths agape. It was kind of a creepy first few minutes until it became obvious that Calderone left Lady Gaga at home for the entire evening.
Britney Spears, looking quite stunning in a little black dress and boots, won the first award of the evening in the category of Best Pop Video. She had to put up with Gaga’s male alter ego when she received the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.
