 Haven't watched in years. Now I know why. Thanks for the vivid reminder!
I ain't heard of a single one of those mo fos: Best New Artist: - 3Oh!3 "Don't Trust Me" - Asher Roth "I Love College" - Drake "Best I Ever Had" - Kid Cudi "Day N' Nite" Is that first one an actual name? Fuck's sake! Kid Cudi?!?! That's a name? Hold the fuckin' phone. I'm out this bitch. Jeez, you should have heard of Kid Cudi by now! Same for Drake. He's been EVERYWHERE and on EVERYONE's stuff. Not bad for someone who doesn't have an album out now. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Well, you're probably stuck in a timewarp like many of us here. The interesting thing about Drake is that he is Larry Graham's nephew. http://en.wikipedia.org/w...rtainer%29 **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

ScarletScandal said: daPrettyman said: I still think it's better than "Single Ladies". That's just my opinion. The only good thing about "Single Ladies" is the dancing. I didn't understand Halo. Her and Gary Dourdan are all around the house, in the kitchen, in the bed, she's in the dance studio with a catsuit on but we never see her dance... Lol, it's Michael Ealy not Gary Dourdan. We do see her dance... It's supposed to be very simple and angelic... | |

purplesweat said: Best Male Video
- Jay-Z "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)" WTF? Nothing even happens in this video! Hell, the POINT of the video/song is that it's a non music video flashy type affair, he's trying to say "quit with the image, get back to the music", he blows up bling and a television for gods sake! MTV are quite honestly retarded if they can't see how anti-MTV that video and song is. I'm convinced it's a bunch of circus monkeys running the show. Which is why I think it should win best male video And Eminem's "We Made You"? Are they serious? It's a complete rehash of Just Lose It which was a complete rehash of Without Me which was a complete rehash of The Real Slim Shady which was a complete rehash of My Name Is. PATHETIC.
Agreed Single Ladies could have a best dancing nod, but special effects? For some shitty, completely noticeable editing? LOL.
Agreed again. Plus both song and video are annoying as hell Best Female Video:
- Katy Perry "Hot n Cold" - Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" - Kelly Clarkson "My Life Would Suck Without You" - Lady Gaga "Poker Face" - P!nk "So What" - Taylor Swift "You Belong With Me" Pink should win this. [b]I kinda voted for my favourite song here so I gave it to Kelly. As a video none was impressive but Pink and Lady Gaga were above the rest Oh, and LOL at Britney not getting Best Female. If she wins Best Video it's technically the best female video any way, dumbasses.[/b]
Well yes but she doesn't deserve it anyways lol Best New Artist:
- 3Oh!3 "Don't Trust Me" - Asher Roth "I Love College" - Drake "Best I Ever Had" - Kid Cudi "Day N' Nite" - Lady Gaga "Poker Face" If Don't Trust Me wins I'll throw my TV out the window. Never seen Asher or Drakes. Kid Cudi is good but won't beat Gaga. Drake's video is crap but the song is soooo good and it's about artist here and since it is the only song I still like here... [/b]
Best POP Video: - Britney Spears "Womanizer" - Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" - Cobra Starship "Good Girls Go Bad (Featuring Leighton Meester)" - Lady Gaga "Poker Face" - Wisin & Yandel "Abusadora" Uh, none of these? I'll say Pokerface but Womanizer will probably win. I don't know the last one and from the rest only Britney qualifies as pop in my ears (unless pop stands for popular). Anyway once again I voted for the least bad Breakthrough Video:
- Anjulie "Boom" - Bat For Lashes "Daniel" - Chairlift "Evident Utensil" - Cold War Kids "I've Seen Enough" - Death Cab for Cutie "Grapevine Fires" - Gnarls Barkley "Who's Gonna Save My Soul" - Major Lazer "Hold The Line" - Matt And Kim "Lessons Learned" - Passion Pit "The Reeling" - Yeah Yeah Yeahs "Heads Will Roll" Gnarls Barkley for Breakthrough Video? What? Death Cab? Okay, what does Breakthrough mean? I only know 3 videos from that list lol Best Choreography:
- A.R. Rahman & Pussycat Dolls f/ Nicole Scherzinger "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)" - Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" - Britney Spears "Circus" - Ciara f/ Justin Timberlake "Love Sex Magic" - Kristinia DeBarge "Goodbye" Ugh. I'll go with PCD or Britney since they're the only ones with real, decent choreography. Is Beyonce's really considered a good choreography? Best Cinematography:
- Coldplay "Viva La Vida" - Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" - Britney Spears "Circus" - Green Day "21 Guns" - Lady Gaga "Paparazzi" Coldplay or Britney. Green Day... less is more Best Editing:
- Coldplay "Viva La Vida" - Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" - Britney Spears "Circus" - Miley Cyrus "7 Things" - Lady Gaga "Paparazzi" Fuck, these aren't the only videos that came out this year!!! Agreed again lol Best Special Effects:
- Lady Gaga "Paparazzi" - Eminem "We Made You" - Beyoncé "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" - Gnarls Barkley "Who's Gonna Save My Soul" - Kanye West f/ Mr. Hudson"Paranoid" Where's Mims Move If U Wanna? Idiots. I'll go with Single Ladies because that'll be hilarious listening to Beyonce talking about how complicated it was to run up a wall and film the dance more than once  Spot on lol [Edited 8/5/09 20:12pm] | |

Pulling for Bat for Lashes and Björk in the only categories worth anything. Feel free to join in the Prince Album Poll 2018! Let'a celebrate his legacy by counting down the most beloved Prince albums, as decided by you! | |

well unless it was work like 1999 I think I had already quit watching by 2001 This was the last of it being phenomenal at Lincoln Center ! Michael Jackson, Tommy Lee ..Janet and Lenny (whom I got to say hello to) after that MTV guests went downhill ....well at the very least we know what a good performance used to be like long long ago | |

Why? It's a boring video (even though it's not supposed to be flashy). The video shouldn't win for the message, the SONG should win for that. Is Beyonce's really considered a good choreography? God, no. There's barely any decent dancing in videos these days so it's no wonder crap like this gets nominated. Green Day... less is more
