#Youtube the court jester how to
Schwartzman’s voice cracking, Watts’ hammy improvisations, and that part where they could’t figure out how to pronounce the word cake - Reggie: “Is that pronounced ‘cake’ or ‘cock’?” Jason: “Kike?” Us: - but really, some sort of award should’ve gone to Win Butler for playing court jester, and pulling a “Winye” on “not Taylor Swift.” Schwartzman aptly called it, “A festival of excitement.”Įxciting things are rarely tidy, and after it was clear that we weren’t watching the Grammys, the imperfections and the unpredictable became reasons to keep watching. In the way that YouTube lets everyone in on the fun, from creation to comments, this ceremony was … blurry. Okay, but how was the show? Were we to boil it down to a handy quotable - and yes, let’s - we’d probably say something like, “A charming mess.” Co-hosts Jason Schwartzman and Reggie Watts operated without a script, in a gigantic warehouse without hidden corridors, full of fans and industry people and the artists themselves.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis were crowned 2013’s YouTube Breakthrough on behalf of their world-conquering “Thrift Shop.” And K-Pop collective Girls’ Generation took home Video of the Year for their “I Got a Boy” visual. Eminem was made Artist of the Year, just days before the release of his eighth album, The Marshall Mathers LP 2.
All of the night’s trophies have been handed out, and all of Spike Jonze’s “live music videos” have been, um, video’d. The first-ever YouTube Music Awards have wrapped.
