She won 4 EMA in 1999 and another in 2004. She lost Female and Song Of The Year that year.
This year, she'll most likely win Act Of 2008. Best Act Ever will go to Tokio Hotel cause their fanbase consists of insomniac druggies & Best Album will sadly go to Coldplay.
And by the way, the EMA performance >>> VMA performance. Though both were amazing that year but nothing beats the tap choregraphy she did in 1999.

You're right about Britney's MTV 1999 performances.
But please, do you really think MTV Europe would allow such blasphemy as Tokio Hotel winning BEST ACT EVER against U2, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Rick Astley?
Who only got in there because he was part of the biggest Youtube joke of the year. And it's a bit hysterical because his US career was only marginally bigger than Kylie's despite him practically being the male version of her in the '80s.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think he should win if he's going against people like U2 and Britney. But Tokio Hotel? COME ON. :-/
Tokio Hotel's fans have no lives. They make Clay Aiken & Jonas Brothers fans look sane in comparison. But 2 days after they win, nobody will remember or even care about who won that award anyway.

Britney needs to have 299,342 downloads on first week to get that #1.
That's 23.117 this week. By the October 25th chart, Britney should be at at least 35m-40m. So that should shrink it to about 280k. Which sadly she won't do. :-/
Okay, the crappy thing about digital cd sales is that they count towards Soundscan but not towards the RIAA. So even if Blackout sells another 98k it still might not be certified platinum because RIAA goes off of shipments, and technically when a digital album is purchased it isn't shipped. Also, it's hard to tell how many albums were shipped since SS only accounts for about 85% of the market.
As for ITZ, it should definitely be 3x platinum, Britney should be 5x platinum, and OIDIA sold 9.18 million through SS + 1.21 million through BMG so she definitely deserves 10x platinum, but considering Columbia House was an even bigger record club than BMG, OIDIA probably sold more through them hence why it deserves 11x platinum.
