In case you missed the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, some are saying this was the best year yet. Whilst none of the nights wins were real surprises, it was certainly a fun night.
Some of the non award highlights were:
+ Beyoncé announcing to the world that Jay-Z and her were expecting via the red carpet. Later on in the night Mama Bey belted out her 4 album track Love On Top and at the end of the number she rubbed her little belly. Oh, sweet.
+ Lady Gaga's male alter ego Jo Calderone opened the show performing Yoü and I (in a deep, male voice), and as the track came to an end he/she welcomed Queen's Brian May as he played on his guitar.
+ Adele performed her UK/Australian number one hit Someone Like You (which was breath-taking), so expect to see this sky-rocket to the top of the Billboard charts in the coming weeks.
On the night Katy Perry and Adele lead the way with three awards each, followed by Lady Gaga with two awards. For the complete list see here.
