Hopix Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Seems to be. For instance, best alternative has been given to Lana Del Ray in a category that included Arctic Monkeys, The Black Keys & Jack White. I mean - really? It's just a bunch of over-respected, over-paid fuckwits sitting around and picking vaguely and shallowly categorized popular music out of a hat, and matching it with a vaguely relevant award.

CarrieB Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I'm finding it hard to get excited about the prospect of Muse (or other acts I like) winning when shit like Bieber, Minaj and One Direction win awards at these things (I can honestly say I have never heard a Taylor Swift song) As you say, winning alongside Justin Bieber, is hardly anything to shout about in any case. I expect they were a bit disappointed though. Hardly seemed worth the effort of the performance. Anyway, better things tomorrow evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobby Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 And back on topic, it was all voted. So it doesn't really matter if it's the Live Award, the fans are simply voting for T Swift, no matter what category it is. The same goes for "Best Look" (dat category ) You say this as if Muse fans are above this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopix Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Seems MTV is tailored towards teenage girls almost exclusively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjartrod Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Nobody except Bieber and Taylor Swift fans and alike watch (or care about) MTV so I suppose it's not really surprising that they are the ones awarded. It's never been about the 'best' anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 +1 MTV lost their credibility a long time ago. And it would be whole other story if they won tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forevermusic Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Nah - if Muse had won it wouldn't have changed the fact the vast majority of what MTV show is fucking terrible. If anything it would've been the exception to the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Actually I'm glad they didn't, because it would be shameful to be a bigger part of that shite. Let me remind you that they performed, so they already are. If you say so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything it would've been the exception. It's just funny how it suddenly doesn't matter that they didn't win...because it's a shit award...with shit music....and shit fans... But still everyone cares so fucking much The fact that you even watched more than Muse's performance proves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjartrod Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 He/She said while watching MTV to see if Muse won anything. Exactly, that was my point. I watched MTV only to see if Muse won+their performance, the rest of the time I just don't bother (do they even have anything other than reality shows?). Isn't it the same with everyone else here? I don't think Bieber fans, for example, will say the same! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Bieber fans, for example, will say the same! But why would you care if they won something if you don't care about the awards or even watch the channel? To say that only Bieber fans watch MTV, while watching MTV to see if Muse won an award from a channel that you apparently don't care about is just too funny.
