To be honest I don't think much of a lot of the nominees, there were quite a few categories where I didn't particularly rate anyone!

Anyway:

Best UK and Ireland Act - Florence and the Machine
Best Song - Beyonce - Kings of Leon 'Use Somebody'
Best Live Act - Kings of Leon
Best Group - Kings of Leon (though bloody Tokio Hotel will win!)
Best New Act - La Roux
Best Female - Shakira
Best Male - Jay Z
Best Urban - Ciara
Best Rock - Foo Fighters (though tbh I have no idea what they've done this year to actually be nominated!)
Best Alternative - One for both The Killers and Muse
Best Push Artist - Little Boots
Best World Stage Performance - Kings of Leon

Looking at my nominations, you'd think I was a massive KoL fan when I'm actually very neutral on them, its just I disliked the other nominees a lot more!

EDIT The 'Best Push Artist' category is very odd as well because very few of those artists are well known/successful outside the UK and the awards are for the whole of Europe! Pixie Lott only charted around #20 in most European countries, La Roux, Little Boots and White Lies are extremely cult, if not unknown and Daniel Merriweather has only been released in a couple of European countries (and hasn't done brilliantly either).

but here's what I'd say... with commentry


Best UK and Ireland Act - Florence and the Machine
Don't rate her that much but she's the best of a bad bunch. Bat For Lashes is better thatn all those females put together.

Best Song - All pretty rubbish, commercial and formulic songs but I suppose I'd go with Kings Of Leon

Best Live Act - I've seen Kings Of Leon twice this year so I suppose it will have to be them again

Best Group - Kings Of Leon

Best New Act - Can't believe I'm gonna say this cause I can't stand her but La Roux is the best in that category.

Best Female - Beyonce, she's got some decent songs

Best Male - Kanye West, had Eminem bought out a listenable album this year it would have been him

Best Urban - Kanye West

Best Rock - Kings Of Leon

Best Alternative - Muse

Best Push Artist - White Lies

Best World Stage Performance - Kings Of Leon

like someone said before you'd think I was a huge KOL fan. I like their music but never really rated their current stuff, but I think that just says more about the competition really

Best UK and Ireland Act - Tinchy Stryder (Not a fan but I'd say he's the best and most consistantly 'good enough' IMO)
Best Song - Beyonce Halo (Not a huge fan but the vocals are amazing in this song)
Best Live Act - Beyonce (Not a huge fan but she's a great performer, or should the credit go to Sasha Fierce)
Best Group - Black Eyed Peas
Best New Act - Lady Gaga
Best Female - Beyonce (Tough one between her and Lady Gaga but I think Beyonce's singles were better)
Best Male - Kanye West
Best Urban - Jay-Z (Tough one, but Kanye got Best Male so I'll give Jay Best Urban)
--- Best Rock - Nothing stands out at me so I'll pass ---
Best Alternative - Muse
IMO Best Video - Eminem (Not a great shortlist there unfortunately)
Best Push Artist - La Roux
Best World Stage Performance - Coldplay (Lady Gaga a close second)

Overall, I'm not too impressed with the nominations

It seems most of the posts have skipped best video. :P

Best UK and Ireland Act - Florence + The Machine
Best Song - Kings Of Leon - Use Somebody
Best Live Act - Lady Gaga
Best Group - Kings of Leon
Best New Act - Lady Gaga
Best Female - Lady Gaga
Best Male - N/A; Honestly don't think any of the nominees are particularly deserving of Best Male so I didn't vote.
Best Urban - N/A; Don't listen enough to any of the nominees.
Best Rock - Foo Fighters (Have they done anything this year though?!)
Best Alternative - Paramore (torn between Muse and Paramore but oh well, I don't think Paramore stand as much of a chance as Muse so I voted Paramore.)
Best Video - Beyonce, "Single Ladies"
Best Push Artist - N/A (Didn't really know what this category meant)
Best World Stage Performance - N/A (Didn't really know what this category meant)

Agreed with the post above, the shortlists aren't great in most categories and some of the nominees aren't really relevant.
