2011 MTV Video Music Awards recap: Pics, winners, and video of Lady Gaga as ‘Jo Calderone’

The MTV Video Music Awards is the one place that if you are looking to see beautiful celebrities, from sexy singers to hot actresses, you might want to add to your must-attend list (Lady Gaga performing as Jo Calderone aside). 2011 at the Nokia theater in Los Angeles was no exception to this rule as you can see below from the number of hot ladies who took time out of their Sunday to get all dolled up for a night of musical performances, awards-presenting, all-around narcissistic self-love, and wondering what in the f*ck Cloris Leachman was doing anywhere near this place.

As I alluded to above, Lady Gaga opened the show by performing her single “Yoü and I” as her male alter-ego Jo Calderone. Seriously, that’s her, I swear.
