I thought the world music awards were just sales-based? At least that would explain Madcon and The Script getting awards (though not why Lady GaGa didn’t get one for something.)

Please tell me I am not the only person that looked at Beyonce’s picture up top and heard a “Ooh, guurrrll…” in their head? I mean seriously, the sweatsuit looking top, that hair. I love you girl, but that is a late 80’s/early 90’s ‘hey let’s put on some Tiffany or Debbie Gibson’ look you got going there. That or it takes its cue from every “love interest” found in old New Edition and Another Bad Creation videos.

You know, I just spent a few minutes trying to think of a funny, Benelux-themed joke.

And then I realized that the World Music Awards just made one.

Thank you, and goodnight.

If nothing else, this is a great excuse to hunt down YouTube videos from all the unknown-outside-of-their-home-country artists that who prove that terrible pop music has no borders. The delicious hideousness of Kate Ryan! The oh-so-serious hilarity of Die Arzte! The untenable pablum of The Script and Jovanotti and Christophe Mae and Jae Chou. I can't even find anything to say about Tuface other than ... oh my! Philipp Kirkorov's HAIR FREAKS ME OUT.

Nancy Arjam is kind of rad, though.
