30 Seconds To Mars, Paramore, Muse and more are up for MTV VMA’s



I’m no fan of MTV by any means. I probably won’t even watch the VMA’s this year unless I know some shit is gonna go down…which means Kanye will probably be at the awards this year. But I still give credit where it’s due when it comes to bands who are being nominated.

Even though videos are no longer played on the channel formerly known as Music Television, they have nominated bands for different video categories. For Video of the Year, 30 Seconds To Mars and their video for “Kings And Queens” is up against Lady Gaga, Eminem, B.O.B. and, in a surprising move, Florence + The Machine. Which means Lady Gaga will win because awards always go to the most popular kid, right?

For Best Rock Video, 30 Seconds To Mars goes up against MGMT, Paramore, Muse and Florence + The Machine. How many people who watch MTV even know who Florence + The Machine is? I’m not taking anything away from them but you really think 13-year-old girls who watch Jersey Shore are going to know one of their songs? I seriously doubt it.

All the nominees can be seen at MTV.com and the VMA’s air on September 12th at 9pm EST. If anything should happen during the award show, someone let me know about as I’ll probably be watching football that night.

Video of the Year:
30 Seconds To Mars – “Kings And Queens”
B.O.B. f/ Hayley Williams – “Airplanes”
Eminem – “Not Afraid”
Florence + The Machine – “Dog Days Are Over”
Lady Gaga – “Bad Romance”
Lady Gaga f/ Beyoncé – “Telephone”

Best Rock Video:
30 Seconds To Mars – “Kings and Queens”
Paramore – “Ignorance”
Muse – “Uprising”
MGMT – “Flash Delirium”
Florence + The Machine – “Dog Days Are Over”
