At the exact moment of the last chorus of Love Story, Robert Pattinson flies down with bat wings from the rafters, going all sparkly under the spotlights and takes over, belting "MARRY ME JULIET WE'LL NEVER HAVE TO BE ALONE, I LOVE YOU AND THAT'S ALL I REALLY KNOW". After "I talked to your dad and we'll pick out a white dress", Taylor Swift, pulls the exact same manoeuvre as she does at 3:21 here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Str59XDQp6U - but revealing a wedding dress underneath. Madonna emerges as the priest, and marries them in the single greatest combination of teenage girl fixations in history.

Russell Brand, sure, he stopped the VMAs' ratings bleeding last year, but Muse? Are you sure you didn't accidentally pick up the Brit Awards press release?
Score = 1
Why would a energetic band like Muse known for their fusion of progressive rock, electronica, and classical music play the USA MTV VMAs? The channel rarely plays them and doesn't have respect for the kind of roll n roll they play or for rock and roll at all!
