Lol @ Love The Way You Lie nominated for Male Video instead of Collaboration. Also Lol @ All Of The Lights nominated for Best Collaboration AND Best Male Video.
Is there a reason for the Beastie Boys VOTY nod? The video is clever but like...who even saw it? Not so sure Adele & Katy deserved alllll those technical nominations. E.T. deserved some and RITD maybe for cinematography but otherwise....um...
If Hurricane got 3 technical nods and none of the Rock Video nominees got any, doesn't Hurricane belong in Best Rock Video? I don't care about it/30STM but things like that bother me. Same w/ Firework getting VOTY/Female but E.T./TD getting the tech nods and LFN getting Pop Video. It doesn't make sense. I get it but it's stupid. And no tech nods for BTW? SFX? Editing for Judas?
Why isn't Bruno up for BNA? I guess his inclusion in B.o.B./Travie's last year disqualified?
I don't like when MTV picks random indie artists to give "cred" (Kreayshawn). Even if it's good. If they're gonna be a popularity contest, be a popularity contest. The nominees, IMO, should be the best/most impactful videos of the year. Some of them, they got right, but like usual, lots are strange.

So Katy has noms for E.T., Firework, Last Friday Night, AND Teenage Dream? Isn't there some sort of rule for only submitting two videos?

The last few years the categories have been a mess, I'm just very happy with all the Katy love <3 MTV must not like Rihanna very much, I remember last year she was almost snubbed too.

Eh, boring nominations. Not sure what I was expecting tbh, I mean I knew Gaga wouldn't get that many because her videos have been messy as of late and besides Bey and Brit, I guess the year just hasn't been that eventful, so can't be too surprised at Katy leading the pack. Pleasantly shocked to see Tyler The Creator even get recognized by the VMA's much less for Video of the Year :o I hope he wins that. And Rihanna getting shut the hell OWT another year for her own videos This year isn't as surprising as last year though, where all her Rated R videos were grade A.

Katy dominating the girls this year. Good for her. She and her fans better relish in it, because it's never gonna happen again, and she'd be lucky to achieve half of the success of this era again. #thetruth.com

Yawn....... I hope Beyonce performs :)

Overall the nods are ok. The list is lacking some nods for On The Floor, and Rihanna, but overall it's fine. It's Katy and Adele's year.

Yawn....... Please think next time before you comment. OOTB was a standard, successful debut era. TD was not the norm. To compare the two eras is just laughable and dumb as fuck to be quite frank. To expect her to repeat success that only few have seen is unrealistic.

What did Rihanna do to MTV? lol Last year it was kinda forgivable considering Rihanna was still in her "dark phase", but this year she had 3 #1 hits and "Man Down" got a ton of media coverage.

^ Agreed. Only Girl and Man Down deserved at least one nomination each, and it's more than a little ridiculous she received 0 solo nominations. Tell MTV they can go fuck themselves when they ask for a performance RiRi. That's what they said about "I kissed of a girl"....then after "Hot & Cold"...then after "One of the Boys". Yawn....... Please think next time before you comment. OOTB was a standard, successful debut era. TD was not the norm. To compare the two eras is just laughable and dumb as f**k to be quite frank. To expect her to repeat success that only few have seen is unrealistic. That might be true, but I'm not sure why the snark in your initial comment was necessary.

To expect her to repeat success that only few have seen is unrealistic. Of course she's not going to have another TD...I didn't think anyone said she was? Just like GaGa's "The Fame" or Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway" this kind of era's are a once in a life time kind of thing. But it's not like after this era she's going to fall off and be forgotten. I don't know where are you anger is coming from. I wasn't attacking you or anything ??? Can people be reasonable anymore?

It was obvious from the get go it would be Katy's year. I'm quite surprised to see J.Lo not having any nomination. I would have thought she would be atleast nominated in 2 categories and be the surprised winner of the night. I'm also disappointed to see Brit get only two nominations. I can't really think of many eventful music videos the past year.

The number of noms don't mean shit. Its who wins. Its also MTV. Katy could get the Britney treatment. MTV is a MESS.com lately.

I'm not angry, baby.
And I did not claim or insinuate that she would fall off and be forgotten (if you're saying that I did).
I just don't see the point of your post in response to mine.

Best Rock Video:
Cage The Elephant - Shake Me Down Foo Fighters - Walk Foster The People - Pumped Up Kicks Mumford & Sons - The Cave The Black Keys - Howlin' For You
Video of the year! Why was ignored on that category? :(
This category is so good, I just dont like ''The Cave'' at all.

FLOP noms. Gross. DNW. Hopefully they have a terrible performance lineup, an awful host and officially shut down. MTV = done! +1 Dreadful.

And we've all said time after time again that she won't get major nods. I don't think that's why they're upset. It's because the nominees are such a fustercluck this year. Solo Rihanna snub + Ke$ha snub + Love the Way You Lie snubs + the random Bestie Boys and Tyler, the Creator nods in VOTY over the likes of Cee Lo, Riri, etc. = completely strange.

And why in God's name is Adele nominated for so many awards? It's the VIDEO music awards. She sat her ass down in a chair with vibrating cups.

Best Female Video: Adele - Rolling In The Deep Beyonce - Run The World (Girls) Katy Perry - Firework Lady Gaga - Judas Nicki Minaj - Super Bass In this category, Gagz is nominated for BTW not Judas ;) And why in God's name is Adele nominated for so many awards? It's the VIDEO music awards. She sat her ass down in a chair with vibrating cups. Seriously. I think she deserves a nod in cinematography, but that VOTY spot belongs to RTW(G) or Man Down Judas better win best choreography... It doesn't deserve it...
