On an average day, Twitter consists of a variety of tweets— from random thoughts and photos to news sharing and commentary, etc. But when a big event occurs or a news story breaks, Twitter is filled with relevant tweets. Last night's MTV Video Music Awards show was one of those events. With all the surprising—and unsurprising—winners, the wacky performance from Lady Gaga, the extremely racy show Miley Cyrus put on, the 'NSYNC reunion, and everything in between, Twitter was ablaze all day with reactions to the VMAs (see: #VMAs, #MTVVMA, #vmas2013, to name a few).

do you think Billy Ray Cyrus woke up with an achy breaky heart this morning after his little girl's performance at the VMAs last night? -ck

I just watched the #VMAs & I know I'm going to have nightmares about Miley Cyrus playing a tiny harp where her "red light area" is.

James Van Der Beek shared one of many humorous observations (see his Twitter feed for more)
Things I learned watching the #VMAs2013: If the goal is to not look creepy onstage w/ an underage twerker, a striped suit is not your friend

Just saw a couple performances from the VMA's last night. 2 words.... #pitchystrippers

I've got, at best, 2 more years of #MTVVMAs until I cross over into "sour crank who thinks The Pixies was the last time music was good."
