BTW, have to say that I changed my opinion on Calvin Harris. His two albums maybe the best in euro-whatever 'in a decade'.

The great melodies and very best 90's influences. I just got him. He's about simple actual pop.

Love and luck to everyone at the VMAS! Hope MIA wins VidofTheYear for BAD GIRLS. If not I truly fear for the future of pop culture.

Why does the MTV VMAs still exist? They don't play music videos anymore. They don't even play music. It's a television series network. They might as well become the Emmy Awards.

Can't help but agree with that.

Rihanna won video of the year for "We Found Love". It's a cracking tune, but VIDEO OF THE YEAR? Remember when the winning videos used to be stunning and groundbreaking. *sigh*

I can't believe Nikki Minge's Starships video won an award. Have you seen it? It was made on a budget of $5 and shot on an iPhone.

And the One Direction video is hardly groundbreaking. For me, the VMA's turned to shit when Taylor Swift's video was judged better than Single Ladies. Travesty.

Don't they have tens of side projects like pop mtv, rock mtv, urban one etc? Which play only music videos? And music news?

I kind of like the Starships video because of how gross it is. It's like Jordan on acid. But no, it shouldn't be winning any awards. I think the video for We Found Love is pretty good though.

The shortlist was....

Beyoncé - 'Love on Top'
Katy Perry - 'Part of Me'
Nicki Minaj - 'Starships'
Rihanna - 'We Found Love'
Selena Gomez & The Scene - 'Love You Like a Love Song'

At a push - and it's a real push - I'd have picked Beyonce's Love On Top.

Agree with the choice.

Should think of mine top five. Though it's not the best year in pop music, so it's hard

I agree, We Found Love is a really good video. I love the way she appropriated the "hipster" codes in a classy and natural way. The storytelling is also very good.
