This. And just because it's Lady Gaga doesn't mean she's getting an automatic nomination. MTV treats everyone equal. Hopefully this is a wake up call to her & her team but realistically she's probably got her head in the clouds thinking "I'm too good for them anyway"
Even if Gaga could attend, I don't believe she would have gotten the major categories. Gaga missing from the technical categories is a testament to the fact that Gaga is the only person who cares about ARTPOP.
