Rickrolling has been a huge Internet phenomenon, so much so in fact that it lead Rick Astley to be named as ‘Best Act Ever’ at the MTV Europe Music Awards
2008.

Belinda, a young pop star, who acted in the Disney Channel's "Cheetah Girls 2," is on the top of the nominations for MTV Video Music Awards Latin America in Mexico City.

Teenage R and B star Rihanna and pop sensation Justin Timberlake were the big winners at the MTV Video Music Awards. Rihanna picked up the Video of the Year award and Monster Single of the Year for her "Umbrella". She beat R and B starlet Beyonce, Timberlake, rapper Kanye West and British soul singer Amy Winehouse.

Justin Timberlake and Beyonce lead the pop parade of nominees for the MTV Video Music Awards with seven nods apiece. Beyonce's "Irreplaceable" was nominated for video of the year, as was Timberlake's ambitiously cinematic "What Goes Around ... Comes Around," which co-starred Scarlett Johansson.
