1. It was the AMAs, not the Grammys.
2. The AMAs are the Grammys for tweens. Chillax.

This is what it finally took for my friend to realize that these awards mean absolutely nothing and do not live in proportion to an artist's merit or greatness. So I guess I have to thank Justin for getting this award; because he's been music's punching bag for the past 2 years, people are finally realizing how little 'Artist of the Year' awards mean.

"The American Music Awards have nominations based on sales, airplay, activity on social networks, and video viewing."

This is nothing to get upset about.

So... It's the same thing as the Grammys?

i think the Grammy's is more based of a certain critical community...much like the Oscars

ba-dunk.

He's good as a pop artist...he can dance and sing well enough.

Criticism of a pop artist? Never fear, Goblin Tears is here!

The problem is, this thread should be in the Pop subforum. That way many of us that don't care wouldn't even know it existed, and wouldn't be making comments on it - because it really doesn't concern us. :p:
