Noooo! Julia Michaels took the stage at the MTV Video Music Awards on August 27, started singing “Issues”, and then — bam! — the netwok cut to commercial! What happened? That’s what angry fans wanted to know after waiting patiently all night to see their idol perform. From what we could hear, Julia sounded amazing! She looked adorable, too, in a low-cut, ruffled red dress and a messy up-do. Ugh, we wish they could have shown her whole performance.
If you don’t know Julia’s name, it’s time you learned. Julia is behind some of the most infectious hits in pop music, and now she’s getting her time in the sun as a beautiful singer and performer herself! Julia should have had the chance to rock the stage at the Forum in Los Angeles on August 27 at the MTV Video Music Awards with a raucous rendition of “Issues”, the incredible song she decided to keep for herself after gifting other artists with amazing songs.
Julia’s the creative genius who penned lyrics for basically every one of your favorite pop songs from the past couple years. Justin Bieber‘s “Sorry”? Julia! Selena Gomez‘s “Good For You?” Julia! Gwen Stefani‘s “Used to Love You”? You got it, that’s all Julia. She’s also responsible for Nick Jonas‘ “Close” and Demi Lovato‘s “Fire Starter”. We’re pretty grateful that Julia exists. And now, we’re finally getting to hear what she creates for herself. “Issues” is just the beginning of a beautiful career. Her debut song went platinum in under three months after its release. Julia’s vying for coveted 2017 Best New Artist tonight at the VMAs against other notable newbies like Noah Cyrus and SZA. We wish she could have shown off those pipes for the audience at home before fan voting ended! Her fans were absolutely horrified that they couldn’t hear her perform:

How rude to cut to commercial during Julia Michaels… or literally any performer. #VMAs

So wait… Julia Michaels has actual talent and they let her sing for 20 seconds then talk over her and go to commercial? #VMAs

Some of Julia’s famous friends also chimed in on the shocker. Adam Levine was especially upset because Lorde‘s performance didn’t cut, despite her having the flu so badly that she had to get an IV of fluids before the show! Instead of singing, poor Lorde tried her best and did an..interesting…dance while wearing a pair of sweats.
How did they just do julia Michaels dirty like that?

It's always exciting to see how utterly horrible the VMAs will be. They really delivered so far this year. #HOLYFUCK

Julia Michaels gets cut off while she's singing and Lorde gets to NOT sing her whole song
