I see everyone's thrilled about this post.

A total crap fest. Maybe Lorde can perform a duet with Randy Marsh.

Sugar said...

Beyonce will win every award. ;-)

Unknown said...

Is this one also rigged like the mtv one?

Lady Heisenberg said...

Brava @Gweeds. Here is some Motorboat Monday action just for that <3

Unknown said...

This 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.
If 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.

This must be Iggy's year. It's now or never.

Bokonon said...

Oh, American Music...how far you've fallen.

Penelope said...

@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.

parissucksliterally said...

Chris Brown.
Katy Perry.


Sigh.

Sherry said...

And the winner of everything...Iggy Azaela!...Who, me? I'll treasure this for as long as I can remember..

sandybrook said...

Fake show fake musicians

audrey said...

No 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.

Topper Madison said...

@Audrey I was stunned at Katy Perry as an AOR artist as well. Who over the age of 15 has her music?

Dena said...

I never ever want to hear that fucking All of Me song ever again. Never!

Brenda L said...

I miss real music.

Gayeld said...

I love it, but how is Frozen even remotely eligible? It came out a year ago.

Michael said...

I love how almost all the Rap/Hip Hop nominees are white.

auntliddy said...

Iggy city. Borrrimg to all

AndrewBW said...

Phew, that's some badonkadonk.

Frida said...

Izzy over Nicki? pssh.

Frida said...

Iggy*

Bowler_Chick said...

How can there be no Rock artists in the Rock categories? Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Lo Key says stop with the censorship already! said...

I don't listen to any of these people...

TLP said...

This is a horrible list of nominees. Then again- radio blows

Unknown said...

Where's the metal, alternative, punk and (legit) rock categories?
