Category 5
Best Female Pop Vocal Performance
(For a solo vocal performance. Singles or Tracks only.)
Candyman
Christina Aguilera
[RCA Records]
1234
Feist
Track from: The Reminder
[Cherry Tree / Interscope Records]
Big Girls Don't Cry
Fergie
Track from: The Dutchess
[A&M Records]
Say It Right
Nelly Furtado
Track from: Loose
[Geffen]
Rehab
Amy Winehouse
Track from: Back To Black

^
This is the only category i'm looking forward to since all the contenders are D-I-V-A.
Feist and Amy Winehouse can't win in this. It's a tough fight between Xtina, Nelly and Fergie.
Go SAY IT RIGHT!!!!

"The Golden Compass"
Is the editing of the movie really that bad? Or it is just our cinema?
