I didn't watch it this year, but they will probably play it like 500000 more times this month. :P

One category had a few bands I have never heard or seen (Breakthrough Video).


I really think that's the whole point.. being breakthrough and all.

Ammer wrote:Winners

As stated before, the winners were the same (Usher, No Doubt). However one thing really bothered me, The Best Rock Video winner. Honestly, how is Jet's video the "best" out of all those nominees?!


I was fairly dissapointed as well.

Haha, me and my friend were laughing during Hoobastank's performance. It was slightly MORE than a LITTLE bad.

Ammer wrote:I'm not only ranting about how bad this show was (although it may seem that way) because I truly liked it. Besides the nominations and repetitive winners, I thought it was amazing. So many memorable performances and many cool celebrities.


Plus that thing with Usher's face on the pieces of cardboard or w/e was kinda creative.

But all in all, I found it boring as far as award shows go. Usualy funny unplanned things happened but this seemed to go off almost without a hitch. Perfect is boring!

I'm not really fans of the other music videos that were nominated, I quite like the video for "Are You Gonna Be My Girl?" by Jet. (I presuming it's that.) ^_^

I didn't watch it, but saw the list of winners(together with the nominees) and The White Stripes didn't win anything at all. I think they were nominated twice or thrice.

The MTV2 award was pretty clear-cut.

And I wished Need for Speed Underground won the best video game soundtrack.

Lastly, Linkin Park won the viewer's choice! Woot!

Yes, it was that one. And that video against "My Immortal" by Evanescence, please.

I know that. However, they're more popular breakthrough artists like Jojo and Ashlee Simpson which I thought would get nominated.

I thought they were abbreviated to the VMAs?

Cool that Franz Ferdinand were awarded ^^

Yeah, Igg's right, it's the MTV VMAs, standing for the MTV Video Music Awards.

Awww, I missed FF's award. The whole show seemed kinda boring to me, minus a few notable performances. Loved the Jet/Hoobastank/Yellowcard one, 'cept Doug Robb couldn't hit those high notes just like in the MMVAs (Muchmusic in Canada). :P

Yes, you are right. I must've assumed it was MVA's because Much Music's is MMVA's. I'll change the title.

Well, I prefer the Jet video. 0:) Ooooh how controversial of me.

Oh yes. *mega grin* :D

Angus is right, Jojo and Ashley Simpson are probably way to recent to be nominated.
