[Guest chirs3]

I hope you were joking when you said looks good...

 

Just kidding.

 

I personally thing this is one sorry batch of nominees, but it hasn't been the best year for music, really...

[Guest Narcoleptic Jumper]

Mayer nominated for Best New Artist is reason enough to watch for me.

[Guest Snappy Nappy Dugout]

I hope you were joking when you said looks good

 

C'mon, Of course I was jokeing. It doesn't look that good, but It's ok. SOAD, White Stripes, Nas, Shakira, Musiq, Coldplay, and Eminem all up for awards= Goodness.

[Guest redbaron51]

and yet still we have Best Rap best Hip Hop and Best RB, yet they are all the same, yet we have Best Rock, in which this case the only so called rock band is none... of the above.

 

BTW who's hosting?

[Guest Snappy Nappy Dugout]

Jimmy Fallon is the host. Which will suck.

[Guest Shaved Bear]

SOAD better win every catergory they are in

[Guest razazteca]

will Britney Spear perform? that is the only reason to watch

[Guest Combat Apparatus]

Why the fuck isnt weezer's "Keep Fishin" video on there somewhere?

[Guest Narcoleptic Jumper]

Why the fuck isnt weezer's "Keep Fishin" video on there somewhere?

 

I'm guessing because it came out past the deadline.

[Guest Incandenza]

Outside of the presence of the White Stripes, bleh.

[Guest BifEverchad]

Why the fuck isnt weezer's "Keep Fishin" video on there somewhere?

 

I'm guessing because it came out past the deadline.

Either that, or because its a HORRIBLE video.

 

Anyways, the nominees look as soild as any other year. Eminem will take most of the awards. Jimmy Fallon will crack a few memorable jokes. A few celebs will show up half naked and someone like Kid Rock or (insert rapper here) will drop the F-Bomb or something.

 

Same shit every year, its MTV....and I love it!

 

[Guest Big McLargeHuge]

Don't forget shameless shiling of new album/movie releases.

 

I think it hit an all time low last year. Just terrible.

[Guest starvenger]

>will Britney Spear perform? that is the only reason to watch

 

I'd think that the only reason to watch would be if Shakira performs - she may not be a great singer, but at least she actually sings. Britney performing would pretty much be the exact same thing we've seen from her since she debuted.

 

Oh, and BifEverchad, Amanda Walsh is no Rachel Perry...

[Guest BifEverchad]

Oh, and BifEverchad, Amanda Walsh is no Rachel Perry...

true...but Amanda Walsh is the love of my life!

 

and yes, Rachel Perry was/is one sexy bitch too...

(I think I'll include here in my sig as well)

[Guest FeArHaVoC]

No anouncment for who is getting the Michael Jackson, Video Vangard award this year?

[Guest KANE]

This isn't the WORST, don't you guys remember the past 3 years or so? All pop. The only "rock" band there was Limp Bizkit.

 

Oh, and watch Aliyah win the R&B award as a formality, because she's deceased (God rest her soul).

[Guest starvenger]

Ok, I suppose I should say who I'd like to see win...

 

Best Video Of The Year

The White Stripes, "Fell in Love With a Girl"

- I suppose because it's unlike all the rest

Don't care

- Too bad Swollen Members haven't gotten noticed in the US

[Guest y2jailbait]

GO NORAH JONES!!!!!!!!!!

 

Oh yeah, Weezer's video for Dope Nose was screwed, ya cant have a Rock catagory on MTV without Weezer in there somewhere.

[Guest raptor]

Does anybody find it funny that Elton John's "This Train..." was probably nominated because Justin Timberlake was in the video?

[Guest Ripper]

Does anybody find it funny that Elton John's "This Train..." was probably nominated because Justin Timberlake was in the video?

That was a pretty kickass video, and I didn't even know it was him for a while. Justin or no justin, that video should have gotten nominated for something.

 

 

"and yet still we have Best Rap best Hip Hop and Best RB"

 

I still don't understand the Best Rap AND best Hip-Hop when they are the same thing to normal people, but lets remember, MTV doesn't have the slightest Idea what they are talking about. Sisco(or however you spell his name) won the first one...how the fuck that made sense still escapes me.

 

R&B is not the same thing as Hip Hop/Rap(which are the same thing).

[Guest TheyCallMeMark]

"By The Way" should have swept pretty much every fucking catagory. Oh well. I hate MTV.

[Guest evenflowDDT]

Ummmm.... go Nas & The White Stripes? I've never actually seen the video for "Fell in Love with a Girl", but the fact that they actually nominated it for best video shows that a) it's a HELLA good video B) Weezer was too late to be the "alternative"/filler slot c) MTV realized nobody gives a damn about The Strokes anymore.

 

I honestly don't care in the slightest this year, and this'll mark three years in a row that I'm not interested enough in the nominees to have even seen most of the videos, much less waste 2 hours of valuable p05t wh0ring time actually watching that crap.

[Guest mesepher]

it didn't take long for the Strokes to die out... thats kind of a shame, they were kinda good, and had a groovin' look B)

 

Springsteen and the E Street Band is the ONLY redeeming factor of that show... but I'm not into him enough to watch 2 hrs for a five minute performance.

[Guest Nevermortal]

Why wasn't Ozzy nominated for anything? Given his relationship (or Sharon's influence) with MTV, I'm surprised he's not in anything important.

 

What happened to the Best Metal Video? Do they even have that anymore?

 

Fucking MTV twats.

[Guest Still Fly]

"Best R&B Video"

Aliyah or Alica.

 

"Best Hip-Hop Video"

Ja Rule & Asnthai. Becuse it's MTV and white people

AHHHH! I hate it when people spell names wrong!!!!!

 

AALIYAH

 

ASHANTI
