    I have zero interest in it this year since Gaga's not going to show up. Why does MTV bother? She's the only one who makes it interesting.

    Most people try to offend her with that question and fail. She gets humor out of it and usually makes a witty comeback. Nice try though.

    I'm not a fan of any of their music, but I have liked Katy a little more after watching an interview about her.

    I have no idea who is all nominated, so I'll just leave my vote like this.

    Ya it sounds like she would just sweep the awards. Thats still unfair/ridicules but because she's on tour they can get away with it.
