  5. I'm mad that my favorite show Once Upon a Time wasn't on because of these 'awards' but I did see Boardwalk Empire- no spoilers but that episode disturbed my soul and I didn't sleep much.

    2. @rejectedcarebear, boardwalk empire was good last night but I agree it was disturbing. Kept me up much too late. I need to watch it again.

      Van Alden - bummer.

  8. Are you sure these aren't called the Generic Music Awards?

  9. I listen to the college radio or CD's and have no idea who some of those people are. I feel old. I am surprised Linkin Park is still around.

  10. Thank God for my indie radio station, otherwise I'd be stuck with this crap.

  11. @rej-now I cant wait to watch Boardwalk tonight! Sorry you didn't sleep well, though. :(

    Thank God for Pandora listening at work!

  12. WHAT ALBUM DID BEYONCE PUT OUT THAT SHE GOT AN AWARD. TO MY KNOWLEDGE SHE HASN'T DONE ANY MUSIC SINCE BEFORE SHE WAS PREGNANT, OVER A YEAR AGO???Sorry for caps

    ReplyDelete
  13. @CamColty that's exactly what I was thinking as I was reading all the names. Although I am a bit shocked that Tay Swift didn't win country album.

    @sweerstarshine you're right about that!

    ReplyDelete
  14. I had been so happy reading this blog and believing that Bieber was 'on his way out'...now, not so much.

    And generic is right...yawn at the whole thing.

    ReplyDelete
  15. @rejectedcarebear - I watched Boardwalk Empire too!!! Yeah - I had a nightmare about it last night. No spoilers but.....I never saw that coming.

  16. @curly- don't watch before bed!

    @susan- I had a bad feeling in the begining of the episode that it might happen but I was not happy when it did.

  18. so all the tweens got together one last time and voted for Bieber. I still think he is on his way out.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I'll say this - if they ruin this relationship for poor Richard - I'll stop watching Boardwalk. I mean it.

    ReplyDelete
  20. and o/t to the Boardwalk chat I can never look at a crate the same way again.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Oh agreed Susan. If anything happens to Richard or his lady, I'm breaking up with Boardwalk!

    ReplyDelete
  22. @timebob. That crate is going to stay with me for a long time

  23. I have boardwalk on my nexflix que.. Hard to watch with hubby's weird work hours. We are planning to watch it someday...

    For the show.. well I like Maroon 5 and have barely forgiven Linkin Park for those damn Transformer songs..

    When is that Nicki chick going to go away?! Now please.

    Bey won an award?! For what?!

    Kinda bummed I missed Pink. Love her.

    David Guetta? Is he that kid that won Idol a few years ago?!

    ReplyDelete
  24. The 'Canadian' Music Awards! :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. why is it always the hot ones on BE???? WHY???

    ReplyDelete
  26. I hate half (or more) of these "winners".

    ReplyDelete
  27. Just keep in mind the AMA was Dick Clark's answer to the Grammy's when he lost the contract to produce them. It's just a popularity contest among the tweens, it means nothing musically.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Enty, I think you made a mistake - this has got to be the Teen Choice Awards, right? Ugh.

    ReplyDelete
  29. @dia It's a Canadian act of war, shape up or we'll keep bombing you with pop singers! :-)

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. LOL CanadianMiss! Are you really bombing us or just lobbing them over the fence like trash?

      Poor Biebs - his own country doesn't even want him!

      Delete
  30. Ugh, this list depresses me. I agree with those who said it looked more like Teen Choice Awards. Mainstream drivel. This is the downfall of American "culture." Give me Sirius XMU!!

    ReplyDelete
  31. OT: just watched Boardwalk-NOOOOOOO! :(((((

    Hell, I'll never look at a pic of someone on the beach buried in the sand the same-what a scene! yeesh.
