At 3:20 while receiving her award she says This award isn PAID FOR or traded for any favors its chosen by the fans.

So much for the Grammy's having any credibility

So she paid for it? Great exposé

Edit: Oh so she's saying it wasn't paid for? I don't get what she's exposing

Because she said this award wasn't paid for or traded for favors obviously she was talking about other awards and award shows

It's not that deep fergie

Life's a lie

her crying though but clearly she knows that other award shows are all rigged and paid for . ive never heard an artist actually say it out loud like that.

This isn't really an expose of awards as much people who would pay for awards

Well isnt TCA winners chosen by the producers or whatever and not by the fans at all.

Meh I'm pretty sure even the TCA have some backdoor deals going on

The poinT is that she exposed other award shows for taking Bribes to give out awards. She (or her management) is also probably guilty of it but its really sad that its basically all a sham. so much for people using Grammy receipts as any form of artistic credibility

Not a clip from 2007 though. We all knew these award shows were rigged anyway. It's all either a popularity contest or rigged and chosen by the producers anyway.

This is true.

lol

if everyone on ATRL knows this then why do people constantly make threads asking why does this person not have any grammy's or why does this person have more grammys than this person?

And what do people answer? shes a better vocalist, shes taken more seriously, shes more of an artiist.

clearly not every thinks that they are rigged. Unfortunately they are.

Yeah but you're making a huge leap to say Grammy's...

Good poinT.

but the black eyed peas are grammy winners. how is it a huge leap? Fergie was clearly emotional because she actually thought it was a fan vote (even though maybe it wasn't) . she knows how the industry works. its all paid for or traded for favors.

She is a GRAMMY winner too for All Of The Lights...

The point is, you're turning this into something it isn't, she didn't specifically say GRAMMY awards. If it were as easy as buying a GRAMMY, I'm sure a lot more big name celebrities would have them.

Grammy's are a mark of artistic credibility though. That's why artists always care about them.

Here is erm Fergie talking about how she always dreamed about winning Grammy's and feels so blessed to have won some.




Grammy's are not meaningless awards like TCAs or KCAs. They matter to artists because they are credible.
