Well Beyoncé is gonna win 10 only cuz sorry and formation got nominated in the same category twice. 

The Queen is back now down.

Why the meltdowns? I like this new category!! And the nominations make sense. I watched all but Royalty, definitely voting for "The Odyssey" cos it's amazing.

Also mess at M3LL155X not getting a nom in the long form category. Never heard of Chris Brown's video.

So they created a category just to give Beyonce one more award, that is so pathetic and forced.

Well they did that for Gaga in 2011 so we're the last fanbase to complain about that.

Indeed. It makes me laugh more than anything. Always the same people getting mad over her as well, I love it

WHY MTV??? WHY????

[Pierre 10,480]

 

[Didymus 34,379]

My guess is they ditched the message category because it would be too awkward to choose between TIHTY and Formation. Like no matter what you choose, there will be lots of people who will be ****ing pissed. off.
