I think the last person who "Caused A Commotion" at the VMA's was Kanye West when he took that award from Taylor Swift.  2009 I believe.  Or Miley Cyrus dancing in her underwear.  

Yeah there's just nothing there now and the show just comes across more tacky to me than anything.  

@Blue SkiesThat's right I forgot about that. In fact, I thought that happened at the Grammys or AMA's, but you are right, it happened at the VMA's that year.  Though, he didn't take the award from her.  He simply interrupted her acceptance speech, by taking her mic and blabbering on about Beyonce having the best video of the year.  What a schmuck he was (and still is).  It's odd how he still is able to get a lot of artist support (even from Madonna) considering he's gone off the rails. 

I also do remember some getting a little worked up over how Miley danced and was dressed in 2013.  Even Cher criticized her.  LOL!  Weird being I saw that performance and I've recalled far more risque movements and attire from years before even from men.  Hell, both Prince and Howard Stern both wore buttless pants in the early days of the Award's shows.  People thinking the MTV AWARDS show is supposed to be a "family type show" obviously have no idea how that awards show works.  LOL!
