From the Brits, to the AMAs

The 'peoples choice' of American Music Awards, the, um, American Music Awards (20,000 record buyers are polled - odd, since if you believe the RIAA, there aren't that many people left in the states still buying records) have been announced at what can only be described as some sort of ceremony.

Billboard reports "Nickelback got the crowd on their feet following its performance of How You Remind Me" - lets hope the parking garage didn't get overwhelmed with so many people leaving so early. Kelly Osbourne - the amusing comic creation - did one of her songs; Christina Aguilera was there, too. It really does sound like a night in hell, which is why Eminem probably couldn't be arsed to turn up and collect his four awards. Sheryl Crow won an award. Another award went to the Dixie Chicks. Then Celine Dion won something.

The Michael Jackson International Artist of the Year prize went to Madonna. Next year, Michael Jackson is expected to receive the Madonna International Artist of the Year.
