Best Music Video
EXILE, "EXILE LIVE TOUR 2007 EXILE EVOLUTION" ^^^^^ THIS IS NOT A MUSIC VIDEO THO. |
no kuuu...:( i bet the scandal killed her chance of getting at least one award, lol.
|
Good list! It sucks Ayu couldn't be up there more but, hey, at least she's up there! =D
|
You don't actually believe that do you Beauty? :( Yeah, I would have at least thought she would have won for BUT and Ai no Uta since it was claimed to her most popular songs of last year. :sdevil
Yay for Hikki! :breakdanc She won a lot of awards this year. It's been a long time since she racked up that many awards. I just she had won for Kiss&Cry. Why doesn't anyone like that song? Usually she'd win something for her R&B songs. :bounce Oh, well! Yay, Hikki!!! Yay for Avril and Ne-yo! :clapclap :clapclap It was such a great year for them. Both albums were awesome especially Because of You!<~ I'm totally in love with that album. :tipsy |
i was just kidding, lol, but it's strange that kuu didn't get at least one award. it just looks fishy. :P
|
Ugh, Japan sure loves them some Avril DDD:
|
^YOU DON'T LIKE THE ALL-MIGHTY AVRIL, MILKY? :OMG YOU SHALL BE DESTROYED! :rambo
nah, I'm jokin' of course! Still, why no luv for her? <~That question wasn't directed towards you. Her albums are GUUD! :tipsy Ugh, I worship her first album <~ I forgot the name tho. :lmfao @Beauty: Yea. It's suspicious. Hmm...WE SHOULD PROTEST GDA! :bringit |
I liked her second album, but after 'Girlfiriend,' my fandom for her died.
|
Yay Arashi, NEWS, Ayu, and Utada! ^^
|
congrats Ayu, KAT-TUN and Hikki!!!
|

Thinking about it, I don't think she would've gotten an award even without the incident since she didn't release anything big last year... |
Yeah Hikki !!!
|
Thanks for the list. Go ayu, ai, hikki ;D!
|
ahh that's the list i wanted to see...ayu should work extra hard on her new singles, which fail to hit 200k and above since Blue Bird..
And why Black Cherry is not in the top 10 albums? |
congrats to all winner
|
McKumi got nothing :O awww
Congrats on the others though :O |
thanks for the news . I bet EXILE's popularity's gonna shoot up the roof after this .
|
Oh I forgot to add , I'm surprised to see Che'Nelle on the list . I mean is she that really popular in Japan ? Hmm...
|
congratz to all artist..
