MTV Video Music Awards 2015: le nomination
Dopo la conferma circa la presenza di Miley Cyrus in qualità di presentatrice, ora sono state confermate anche le nomination dei prossimi MTV Video Music Awards.
La premiazione, il cui scopo in teoria dovrebbe essere quello di premiare i video più belli dell’anno, come sempre ha assegnato nomination quasi esclusivamente ai video delle hit, con risultati che non sempre ci soddisfano.
Unica categoria in cui le cose sono state fatte meticolosamente è, come sempre, “Best Video with a Social Message”, per la quale sono candidati video che davvero trasmettono un messaggio importante e non abbinati ad hit di successo.
In base a quanto affermato finora, appare ovvio che la più nominata dell’anno sia Taylor Swift, la quale potrebbe portarsi a casa 9 premi diversi. Seguono Beyoncé (5 nomine) ed Ed Sheeran (5 nomine)
Eccovi le nomination, che ne dite?
