- Joey, what'd you think of tonight's show?
- Some of it, I liked, you know?
Then, some of it, I thought                                                                      was a little dull, you know?
But I thought Eddie Murphy —                                                   I thought he stole the show.
I thought he was the best.
- My favorite part of the MTV show
was watching that sick, crazy                                                   person called Eddie Murphy speak.
MTV had a lot of nerve letting                                                                  that fool on television. 
No, no, no, no.
My favorite part of the show was Eddie Murphy.
I think he's the greatest comedian of all times,
and, of course, he's a good friend,
but I think my favorite part                                                of the show was that —
Eddie, just being there and being the host.
- What'd you think of tonight's show?
- It was fun.
- Did you have a good time? 
- Yeah, I had a great time.
- What was your favorite part of the show? 
- When I came up on the stage.
- [Laughs] Thank you.                                                                                  - No problem.
- What are your plans for                                                                 next year's Video Awards?
- I plan to host the entire show,                                                   with my cohost Michael.
- And, you know, we figured we'll have                                                about, what, eight nominations?
Eight nominations for next year?
- I figure we're gonna have 'em all.
- I think we might just sweep every category.
- How are you doing? 
- [Behind camera] Great, how are you?
I need one more shot.
- So, Run — 
- Yeah?                                                                                                  - What do you think of this party, so far?
I know you don't like parties much,
but what do you think of this one?                                                       - Well, it's the type of party where,
you know, I just came —                                                                         - All respect.
- Yeah.                                                                                                   - That's a fact.
- I came on in, I walked in the door.
My man, Jay, and [DMC] —                                                                     my girl with me, and, you know —
it's a party. I'm here.
What do you say, D, you here?
- Yeah.
- We're here.
- Excuse me, one second, one second. 
- [Behind camera] Cher.
- [Behind camera] OK.
OK, this guy's with Cher.
- Who is that?
- Yeah. So, here's a nice party goin' on,
 you know — all type of people here, man.
It ain't just rappers, you know?
- What was the highlight of                                                                                    the awards show for you?
- Right now.
- [Laughs]
- This is what it's all about, right here, us four.
- This is the actual version of Van Halen.
The other one was just a kind 
of a tester model, so to speak.
- So, what was your favorite part of the show?
- Tina Turner's legs, yeah! Boy, you know,
we come out, we're gonna dressed up.
I love to come out, and shake the hands,                                                    and see the people, you know?
And the show was great,                                                  and Eddie Murphy was right on.
And everybody who won the
awards [were] justly deserved.
So, here we are. Woo!
- What'd you think of the show?                                         - Which show?
- I brought him to interview first.
- Just two questions, that's it.                                            Just two questions.
- Well, I thought our bit was very interesting,                                    but it went on for too long, for me.
I know, I mean — I need to go to bed early.                                             - [Laughs]
- One more question.                                                                      What was your favorite part?
- The bit was —                                                 
- Ours [laughs].
- When Dee Dee Ramone, our bass player —
when he was smashing the bass, I like that. 
- Had a good time.                                                                        I'm Paul Anthony, of Full Force.
This is Bowlegged Lou.
- Bowlegged Lou, Full Force.
- Lisa Lisa, of Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam.
- What'd you think of tonight's show?
- I thought it was fun.                                                             It ran pretty nice, you know.
Eddie did a good job,
he's always cuttin' 'em up.
And, you know, I think everybody                             enjoyed the whole —
the acts and everything, it was cool.                                   It was really cool.
And Bob Geldof, he just put a cap on everything. 
You know, he's really good people.
- Our last drummer blew up!
- Exploded! Spontaneous combustion.                                                     - F**kin' spontaneous combustion.
- OK, ready?                                                                                          - We're ready.
- Alright. What'd you think of tonight's show?
- It was great! I especially liked it —
- Fabulous.                                                                                          - When Stephen [Pearcy] presented the award.
- And I especially liked it when Tina Turner                                             and Eddie were out there, myself. 
- So, what's your favorite part?                                         Was that your favorite part of the show?
- Yeah, I think it's what gave                                               everything a little uplift. 
If it wasn't for Tina and Eddie —
- Bit of a kick in the butt.              
- Oh, John Cougar was great.
- Yeah, they were good live!                                                            - Excellent, excellent!
- Good to see somebody play really live,                                             rather than to the temp.
- Pat Benatar was good.                                                                       - Yes.
Myron [Grombacher], yes!                                           He played good drums.
- Do you think that award shows like this                               are important for the music industry?
- Absolutely, why not?                                                                     It's all in good fun, now, isn't it?
- OK. So, Boy George, what was your                                favorite part of this whole show tonight?
- Grace Jones and Eddie Murphy, brilliant.
And I was sitting next to The B-52's,                                                  which was great.
That's my favorite part of the evening.
And I liked David Byrne, as well,                                  from Talking Heads. 
He deserved to win, as well. That was great,                            it was such a good moment.
It's my favorite of the whole night.
- So, it sounds like justice was really                        served, as far as you're concerned?
- You know, just all the underground people               I didn't think would win, won.
- I think MTV is gonna be like —
MTV Awards is gonna be very similar to probably the Grammys, or something.
It's gonna be a monumental thing.
