Taylor Swift won 5 awards - she also won the pop/rock female not Lady Gaga

thank u! Other ppl actually noticed! Everyone else was to busy bashing her because apparently they thought a dead person, who hadnt contributed to the music industry directly over the past year deserved the win more.
I think you got it WRONG.........Taylor Swift won Favorite Female Pop/Rock Artist, not Lady Gaga, and I believe she also won 5 awards, not 4.

BOO!! Green Day beat out Shinedown? What type of world do we live in?

AMEN!
MJ you rock! Its a true shame that you passing has made the world see how great you really where. You children should have recived the awards, NOT your brother..But thanks you for changing music. An letting us all be apart of your world. Wish you where still here to get those awards your self, and see your fans know you still have it. Taylor sorry but you should not have gotten any thing if you where up With MJ. You should have never beaten him for any award.
God Bless you Michael R.I.P.

And K-Why (Kanye West) was nominated for how many?

There will never be another Michael Jackson. Swift is a great singer, as well as a decent lady and she is definitely someone who will go very far, someone young people can look up to.
I wasn't able to see the entire show, so I have no idea what Adam did that was so bad. I think he is strictly Broadway material. He may have a bad manager-publicist. If so, he better make a change before it's too late.
