Im really amazed by Beyonce. Nobody expected to her to get this much noms. Always amazing
And dead at her "flop single" being nominated in best Female. That baby bump solidified its spot.

Once again, MTV gave tons of nomination to Beyonce for her flop singles. (No offense to Bey fans). Then, Selena Gomez got nominated and also her boyfriend, I don't want the VMA become the night for both of them. Kelly was robbed (I know Stronger is not her best video but I prefer her video than 1D)(Thank god, she's nominated for 1 category). No Britney or Gaga (which kinda piss me off) Lana Del Rey got robbed on BNA (but she's deserve a couple of nomination for Born To Die). Madonna didn't get nomination for Best Choreography for Girl Gone Wild. Probably the worst VMA nominees ever.
but I NEED TO SUPPORT MY BITCHES: Rihanna, M.I.A, Kelly Clarkson and Lana Del Rey

Rihanna.
Carly should win BNA tbh, and I'm surprised Demi got a nomination (hopefully she'll win that one, it's a minor category).

Love On Top is NOT a flop single you delusional socially ignorant and depraved loser. And though Countdown is, it's still one of the best videos released last year and YOU. WILL. DEAL.

Rihanna has 5 nominations, but she'll still take the awards for Take Care (except Best Male), right?
