The nominations for the MTV Europe Music Awards 2010 have been released, and it's a fairly mixed bag in the regional categories, and fairly solid choices in the main areas. Leading the way is Katy Perry (a two time award host) with 5 nominations, as has Lady Gaga. The recent comeback from Eminem has given him 4 nominations, the most for any male artist this year. Katy Perry is also performing on the night, and Linkin Park will be too.
Hopefully I attend the event this year, in the Caja Magica in Madrid, Spain, as it has been nearly one year since the glorious Sony Ericsson Fanwalk. Either way, as usual, it should be an interesting event. You are able to vote online now at www.mtvema.com.
