Missy Elliot gets 6...

MTV music award nominations...

Em, Missy, P.O.D. Nab MTV Noms
Mon Jul 22, 6:45 PM ET
By Mark Armstrong

MTV must feel so empty without Eminem.


Reuters
Slideshow: 2002 MTV Video Music Awards

With just one new video to his credit, the trash-talking rapper is once again leading the pack of nominees for the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards, as his superhero-style video "Without Me" joined rapper Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott and rap-rockers P.O.D. with six nominations apiece Monday.

Two years after his last MTV-sponsored trophy haul, Slim Shady is back, scoring nods for Best Video of the Year and Best Rap Video for his clip, in which he and Dr. Dre star as caped crusaders saving children from their own music. Joining Em in the race for the Video of the Year Moon Man: P.O.D.'s "Alive," 'N Sync ( news - web sites)'s "Gone," Linkin Park's "In the End," the White Stripes' "Fell in Love with a Girl" and Nas' "One Mic."

Elliot scored a Best Hip-Hop Video nomination for "One Minute Man," her rage-against-the-quickie video featuring Ludacris and Trina.

For others, meanwhile, the most exciting news of the day might be that Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band are confirmed to perform at the 19th annual ceremony, airing August 29 from New York's Radio City Music Hall.

It'll mark Bruuuce's first appearance on the cable spectacle since 1997, when he showed up to join the Wallflowers on their hit song "One Headlight." (We're guessing this one's gonna be more memorable.)

Other performers slated for the show include Eminem ( news - web sites) and Pink.

Both Em and P.O.D. also will square off in the Viewer's Choice category, where they're nominated alongside Enrique Iglesias' "Hero," Michelle Branch's "Everywhere," Brandy's "What About Us" and B2K's "Uh Huh." The boys of B2K will also have the shrieking teeny-boppers on their side when they compete for Best New Artist alongside R&B newcomer Ashanti, singer-songwriter John Mayer, rebel-popster Avril Lavigne and mopey rockers Puddle of Mudd.

Other multiple nominees Monday included Detroit garage rockers the White Stripes, whose innovative use of Lego blocks for "Fell in Love With a Girl" nabbed them four nominations. Hip-shaking Latin popster Shakira also snagged four nods for "Whenever, Wherever," which is up for Best Female Video and Best Dance Video, among others.

'N Sync, Linkin Park, Elton John, Michelle Branch, Pink, No Doubt and Ashanti are also among the multiple nominees for this year's show.

Handling hosting duties this year is Saturday Night Live ( news - Y! TV) bedhead Jimmy Fallon, who previously hosted the MTV Movie Awards alongside Kirsten Dunst. He's taking the job from Jamie Foxx, who managed to offend everyone and their mothers at last year's show. (Or, in other words: He did his job.)

Some of the reactions or lack of by the "stars" after hearing the winner has tripped me out.

Why has J-Lo seem to have gone back to her Fly Girl look?

Why is it that J. Lo would not have won had Ja Rule not been in the video?

Why is it that J. Lo has to remind us 1,098,376,507,849,764 times a day that she is "from the Bronx" and that she is a Latina? WE ALREADY %$&#ing KNOW!! (excuse my language, but she has to give us a break)

Why is it that Jimmy Fallon is SO NOT FUNNY?!!!

Why is it that regardless of who wins American Idol, since it's not Tamyra, I don't think they will really make it?

Why is it that Avril Lavigne looks like Cousin It by the way her hair is?

Why is it that the Osbournes are too funny?

Why is it that I am only watching this to see Nas perform and I have a feeling that he already has?

Why is it that I love Nas to death, but I'll be damned if I would have missed BB3?

Why is Justin T. performing solo?

Why is it that I don't think that I will be watching much more of this?

Angry Osbournes

I'm sitting here watching the MTV awards and Kelly Osbourne is such a big baby brat!!!!! She needs to spend a week in the heart of the ghetto; maybe then she'll be graceful for her luxurious surroundings.

GIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRl Nas wasn't great at all. His voice was weak and the whole Murder INC thing sucked.

There's another thread in the Blvd about the show.

Em seems to have gained some weight!And he was WRONG for the way he handled Moby.

WTH did Christina Have on?

I knew that one of my girls would have my back and alert me before I watched the rest of this madness.

I have noticed that his voice has been weak and that he gets real tired and winded when he raps lately. I don't know if it's from the smoking and drinking or what. I tripped when I had to miss his show down here, but everybody said that he was loaded or drunk and that the show was terrible. He has to do better. That's my man and all, but I have to draw the line when it starts to interfere with his performance.

Why does Jimmy Fallon INSIST on keeping up the jokes about Fat Joe? THEY ARE NOT FUNNY!! They are just down right RUDE!!

*EDIT: I LOVES ME SOME P. DIDDY!!!!

Nothing!!!!!!

My take on the show so far..........
--does Ashanti even know how to walk in heels?
--go Mary!!!!!!
--when did Britney become a dominatrix?
--did P. Diddy really have to do every song he's been on in the past year?
--was I the only one who cried when Chili started?
--too much black leather (I was kinda feeling Pink's outfit though......)
--go Justin--that is one "foine" white boy
--J. Lo got her booty back!!!!

Isn't this a picture of Tamyra and not Beyonce? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry for butting in...but that was indeed a picture of Tamyra! Unfortunately that link now goes to a picture of Kylie Minogue Try this for the great picture with the still incorrect caption:

I missed last night's show, and from what I'm reading, I didn't miss much. I'm disappointed to hear about Nas and his lack of performance skills - I loves me some Nas!!! But of course, we all know that MTV will air this show about 50 million times
