I see everyone's thrilled about this post.
ReplyDeleteA total crap fest. Maybe Lorde can perform a duet with Randy Marsh.
ReplyDeleteBrava @Gweeds. Here is some Motorboat Monday action just for that <3
DeleteBeyonce will win every award. ;-)
ReplyDeleteIs this one also rigged like the mtv one?
ReplyDeleteThis list is a joke. Not to mention, most, if not all of these awards are planned out ahead of time. I think even the Oscars.
ReplyDeleteIf I recall (it was a while ago) an elderly member of the "association" talked about it one day. Like Michael at DListed mentioned before...the older you get the more you don't give a fuck and don't hold back w/ the truth.
Evidently, these award shows are pre-planned w/ the winners. Nothing is authentic anymore.
@Nora, you may be thinking of Henry Fonda saying he never even looks at his Oscar ballot & just hands the thing over to his wife, who votes.
DeleteThis must be Iggy's year. It's now or never.
ReplyDeleteOh, American Music...how far you've fallen.
ReplyDeleteChris Brown.
ReplyDeleteKaty Perry.
Sigh.
And the winner of everything...Iggy Azaela!...Who, me? I'll treasure this for as long as I can remember..
ReplyDeleteFake show fake musicians
ReplyDeleteNo Arianna Grande, No Swifty...so we are headed in a semi right direction. And Katy Perry as an adult contemporary artist? She's gotta be loving that title.
ReplyDelete@Audrey I was stunned at Katy Perry as an AOR artist as well. Who over the age of 15 has her music?
ReplyDeleteI never ever want to hear that fucking All of Me song ever again. Never!
ReplyDeleteI miss real music.
ReplyDeleteI love it, but how is Frozen even remotely eligible? It came out a year ago.
ReplyDeleteI love how almost all the Rap/Hip Hop nominees are white.
ReplyDeleteIggy city. Borrrimg to all
ReplyDeletePhew, that's some badonkadonk.
ReplyDeleteIzzy over Nicki? pssh.
ReplyDeleteIggy*
ReplyDeleteHow can there be no Rock artists in the Rock categories? Stupid, stupid, stupid.
ReplyDeleteI don't listen to any of these people...
ReplyDeleteThis is a horrible list of nominees. Then again- radio blows
ReplyDeleteWhere's the metal, alternative, punk and (legit) rock categories?
