Ed sicuramente si rifarà agli Ema...

Per il resto mi viene da dire che il fan voting è diventato ormai quasi del tutto irrilevantedanno i premi in base a chi si presenta. Povere Cardi e Megan snobbate ovunque per quel cultural reset di WAP perché nessuna delle due era presente (ha vinto Scott al loro posto in Hip Hop)

Dopo recupero le performance ma lo show sembra essere stato soporifero tranne per Doja alla conduzione

Global Icon Award

Foo Fighters - VINCITORE

Fonte: MTV

L'Artist invece secondo me andrà a Bieber

Tra le altre categorie tifo Olivia (sperando si esibisca) che, se dovesse vincere qualcosa, potrebbe portarsi a casa i primi premi della sua carriera. In VOTY vista l’assenza dei BTS/Olivia credo che sarà essenzialmente WAP vs Montero e sarebbe iconica la vittoria di una delle due essendo fan voted vedo avvantaggiata la prima dal momento che Cardi ha più seguito online but who knows, ho trovato questa categoria un po’ “ambigua” negli ultimi anni (ad esempio Camila/The Weeknd che battono Ariana/Ariana-Gaga i cui video mi erano sembrati entrambe le volte favoriti visto il fandom enorme della Grande..)

Peccato per Midnight Sky che non riceve manco mezza nomination e un po’ assurda anche l’esclusione di Brown Skin Girl in VOTY, secondo me era il video che più di tutti meritava

Credo che non abbia grandi chance di vittoria, ma mi fa piacere vederla nominata. Mi dispiace un sacco che la loro carriera abbia preso una brutta piega, per motivi non solo artistici. L'album è stato un flop su tutti i fronti, ma quel pezzo l'ho trovato da subito molto forte ed è nella mia Top 10 di quest'anno

Come Song of the Year tifo drivers license e senza alcun dubbio anche Olivia Rodrigo come Best New Artist
