Yawn. VMA nominees announced.

These nominations are so boring. So blah. Is it that the nominations are crap or is it that the videos just aren't exciting anymore? Here's the complete list of the nominiees. Look -- we all love the Shakira video, but who wouldn't? Shakira videos are easy. She dresses skimpy and does her belly dancing bit and we swoon. We're weak; she's hot, she dances us into a trance. But is it worthy of Video of the Year? And is Madonna's "Hung Up?" And James Blunt got nominated? Ew. Oh well, you knew that was coming...
