Yesterday MTV announced the nominations for their 26th annual Video Music Awards. Beyonce and Lady Gaga were both nominated for NINE categories! Check out what Beyonce said about holding the title with Gaga:
“I’m excited and honored to be tied for most nominated for the VMAs,” Beyonce said. “I’ve been blessed this year to have ‘Single Ladies’ become a video people really connected with and responded to. I’ve spent so much time watching all the great versions people created all around the world. It’s beautiful to feel you touch people and bring a song to life with a video.”
Lady Gaga also had comments on this huge accomplishment:
“After years of hustle in New York City, where we made our art videos in bars, myself and the Haus of Gaga are honored to receive nine nominations for the 2009 VMAs,” she said. “We believe in the immensity and the promise of ’showbiz’ and will continue to give it mouth-to-mouth, till its vomiting return. All you need is a camcorder, a flashlight and one truly great idea. Thank you, MTV, for being our video flagship, and for supporting this bunch of inspired kids, who love to get wasted and make art together.”
The 2009 MTV VMAs are set to air on September 13th at 9 p.m. so set those alarms and get that DVR ready just in case.
