TRUMP THUMPED AT VMA AWARDS

MTV’s Video Music Awards took a political turn on Sunday. Pop star Katy Perry, the show host, urged fans to pick a winner in a category open to e-voting. “This is one election where the popular vote actually matters,” she quipped, in a reference to the way Donald Trump was elected US President. Paris Jackson, daughter of pop legend Michael Jackson, said “We must show these [white supremacist] Nazis that we have zero tolerance for their hatred.”
