If Anaconda, 7/11 and Feeling Myself get snubbed completely and don't get a nom or don't win, VMAs are a mess and a half. Those were some of the best music videos in a long time. Bad Blood Remix was good too so that's the only way I see those losing. Otherwise, they need to reevaluate how they give these awards out.
7/11 is clearly getting nominated to Best Choreography, I mean:
"Crazy in Love" (feat. Jay-Z) WON
"Naughty Girl" Lost
"Beautiful Liar" (feat. Shakira) Lost
"Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" WON (it was nominated for 9 categories btw)
"Video Phone" (feat. Lady Gaga) Lost (I blame Gaga)
"Run the World (Girls)" WON
"Countdown" Lost
"Partition" Lost
