2006 MTV nominees and performances
And the nominees are in! The list of nominees for the 2006 MTV Video Music Awards includes a familiar mix of hip-shakers, funky Californians, ambitious blondes ” and one group of tight-trousered gatecrashers.
Hip-shaker Shakira and the rejuvenated Red Hot Chili Peppers lead the field with seven noms each, followed closely by the majestic Madonna and upstart Las Vegas rockers Panic! at the Disco, both with five nods. Christina Aguilera is next with four.
Videos from all five artists ” Shakira’s “Hips Don’t Lie,” the Chili Peppers’ “Dani California,” Madonna’s “Hung Up,” Panic’s “I Write Sins Not Tragedies” and Aguilera’s “Ain’t No Other Man” ” will go head-to-head for the coveted Video of the Year Moonman at the 2006 VMAs, which will air live from New York’s Radio City Music Hall on August 31.
Panic! are also one of the first artists confirmed to perform on the show, joining an all-star cast that also includes Justin Timberlake, Beyoncé, T.I., Ludacris and the Killers.
Shakira’s “Hips” scored nominations for Best Female Video (where it also faces off against Aguilera and Madonna, as well as Kelly Clarkson’s “Because of You” and Nelly Furtado’s “Promiscuous”), Best Dance Video, Best Pop Video and the Viewer’s Choice Award, plus a pair of technical nods ” for Choreography and Art Direction ” along with its Video of the Year nom.
In addition to their Video of the Year nom, the Chili Peppers’ “Dani California” is up for Best Group Video and Best Rock Video (it also landed a host of technical nominations, for Direction, Editing, Cinematography and Art Direction).
VMA vet Madonna is up for Best Female Video, Dance Video, Pop Video and Choreography, while Panic! at the Disco ” who less than two years ago weren’t even a band ” saw their “Sins” clip nominated for Best Rock Video, Best Group Video and Best New Artist (going up against Angels & Airwaves’ “The Adventure,” Avenged Sevenfold’s “Bat Country,” Rihanna’s “S.O.S.,” Chris Brown’s “Run It!” and James Blunt’s “You’re Beautiful”), plus an Art Direction nom.
Aguilera’s four nominations include nods for Video of the Year and Best Female Video, while a gaggle of artists ” including AFI, Chris Brown and Gnarls Barkley ” locked up three nominations a piece. Fall Out Boy, Kanye West, Rihanna and the Pussycat Dolls each scored two noms.

whut… Kelly clarkson..only 2 nods?
and what the hell is so special about xtina’s aint no other man.. why best video? =S
i cant wait to see Justin on stage!
i feel the same way. i dont understand why christina got so many and hersong just came out. thats why justin and beyonce new stuff isnt on there. they need to be fair
Justin and Beyonce vids came out too late it missed the cut off. Christina did not miss the cut off date.
Ain’t No other man has been critically acclaimed too.
Sit y’all asses down Christina’s video was out before Justin’s and Beyonce. They did not cheat this year for Beyonce like they did in 2003 her vid missed the cutoff date but it was still nominated.
ANOM the song got rave reviews from the critics.
So I am not suprised.
Plus Beyonce fans are petitioning her vid. b/c they don’t like it MTV posted an article about it so I doubt they would’ve nominated it even if it did catch the deadline.
People LOOOve to complain.
Anyway I liked the article can’t wait to see Beyonce and Justin Perform.
Christina doesn’t deserve best choreography that video sucked!
damn ya’ll are some haters!
Yeah I agree with Keyshia muthfuckers was not complaining when Beyonce was nominated multiple times and missed the cutoff date for 2003. So put a sock in it.
ANyway yeah can’t wait to see what Justin is gonna do.
wooohoooo my girl Christina got nominated
What the fuck was so special about all those damn videos that is what I want to know. All of the videos this year has sucked even Beyonce’s and Justin’s.
woah how did that whore get 4 nominations off that fluff pop song. The video was horrid the bitch can’t dance lmao!
im talking about Christina she doesn’t deserve 1 award
Christina fans cheat of course that how all her fans do. They manipulated the votes when it was time to vote. Her fans at livedaily suck! Beyonce rules!
FALL y’all asses the fUCK bACK DUMB bITCH jENNY.
ya’ll are mad crazy….no oen cheated… beyonce and jt werent up along with alot of videos…besides beyonce’s isnt that great either but then again alot of the videos this year were not good….so whats the complaining for? get a job at mtv if you want to change things…ya’ll probably didnt even vote yourselves lol
Damn Britney STANS they will never get over Christina GROW THE FUCK UP Already that shiit is played out.
I like the nominees and I ca not wait to see Beyonce perform.
Lmao at ya’ll saying beyonce cheated her way in 2003. Ya’ll sound stupid crazy in love is classic. Christina’s video will lose every award! I hope she never wins a VMA.
Hahaha, its funny all the complaints for Christina. You people are dumb, seriously…Admire the b!tch for atleast taking risks. I will be eating my popcorn and laughing when she wins all the awards shes nominated for. This year, videos suck…no doubt.
Oh, and the Beyonce fans out there, suck it up. Her new single sucks the balls and its flopping everywhere. Here in Canada when our radiostation played it on its “Pump It or Dump It” it got dumped my 95% of listeners. So get over yourself already.
Plus all the christina stuff has been critically acclaimed anyway, so its a given she’ll be getting nod, Just you wait to see her shitting Grammys come Feb.
umm Crazy in Love did not make the cutoff deadline for the 2003 VMA’s so that is cheating and no one said Beyonce did it.
Like I said Britney Stans grow the hell up.
1) Christina swears she’s the most talented woman on earth she needs to wake up
2)Rca had her record a double album why? because when she sells 500,000 it won’t be a flop it will be 1,000,000 platinum for manipulated sales. Shania twain didn’t do this but xtina will cheat.
3) What was so great about Ain’t No Other Man?? The video was bland deja vu is a masterpiece compared to xtina’s video
4) There was a reason why she wasn’t on the VIBE cover. Sorry but i hate christina!
Sorry B-Day, but your childish and ignorant. Grow up alittle, why dont you?
That is why people are petitioning it?RIGHT.
Outkast had a double album. You act like she was the only one GET A LIFE.
@pac had a double album.
Christina or Beyonce is not on my mind all the time but apparently they are for you write a letter to MTV
if you are that dissatisfied
Are you 14 B’day cuz seriously it is not that serious MTV does not affect my life like that.
ALl ya’ll people talking shit bout ma girl B, Need fall back. cause christina is a white girl and b is black, black power all day way. B keep your head up girl fuck the nay sayers!
umm I am Black too, and I do not like B.
Oh Kelendria, doesnt you weave need some attention?
Yeah and I am Black too from the hood and I like Christina better so you fall yo ass back before calling someone racist.
well your a black/white girl and i hate them prissy bitches. You ain’t down with us girl. Sorry but i hate people who don’t act ya race.
Kelendria sweetie
I mentioned 2pac and Outkast I am Black so you can sit your ass down.
Bitch please I am more hood than you will ever be.
haha…. ANOM best choreography
With a name like Lisa your white homebread anyways im out i got better things to do than argue with some white chicks, B-Day is #1
Bubba i completely agree since when is dancing like a chickenhead considered hot. What did she do in the video that got her best choreography!!! I can’t wait for Britney to come shut it down. If Christina wins I swear ill start a petition cause Britney hasn’t won any yet!! and her videos are all better than Aint No Other Man!!
You just mad cuz Letoya stealing B’s shine.
Brit Brit Bitch shut yo dumb ass up with Britney non singing ass. NOW THAT IS A WHITE GIRL>
You know these white Bitches love anyone who can’t sing.
UM whats with the race shit?
kalendria i believe u that ur more good than any of us: look at ur name, ur momma was on crack fo’sure when she squeezed ur nappy ass out. jeez
u dumasses Yonkas fat ass thunda thighs didnt even make the cut offs w/Crazy in Love and that bitch still got nominated u r all just mad that ulgy ass weave popeye eating bitch will never get nominated w/her sh1t cheap crock poop deja vu sux ass!
Christina will win now that the fans r voting Yonka is sh1t out of luck this time hos
Who the hell cares who is hood and not hood here? If you guys want to complain about Christina getting nominated and Beyonce not (when she missed the cut-off, I believe, so wtf is the problem) then that’s fine. But who cares if someone’s ghetto and someone’s whitebread? GET OVER IT. It’s the fucking internet.
I’ve watched Christina since she came out and she is one big contradicition. Honestly she doesn’t know who she wants to be. One minute she’s black and next thing she’s white. When she first started she was white and when stripped came out she was O so latin and black. She’s such a fluezy. The fakest in the industry. I hope she flops.
I’m so happy for Christina. Her song is pure fun, it’s sassy and I love the video. It’s not great but it goes with the flow of the song, and I loved the homage do Bettie Page and Marilyn and Veronica Lake.
I can’t believe Hung Up got so many nods. That was a weak video. Miss M can do so much better, I love her but this video is shitty. Sorry was a better video even.
biatches need ur faces slapped…compared to the other videos on that list christina’s is the best….even if ya dun like that bitch u gotta’ admit that…screw beyoncé and britney…they aint on the liust so get over it…
even tho christina didn’t really dance that much she did have dancers so i guess that is what the choreography one is for…
shut up…get a life…and kiss my arse!
I don’t know why Xtina has so many noms either. ew. She sucks.
for any christina fans I made a tribute vide, check it out and tell me what u think!

Daymn STFU and
Beyonce fans wait till next year for her to get nominated gosh grow up.
RCA = Payola
…besides madonnas prob. gonna win everything ne ways….her vid waz co-ullll! (cool) lol
Brit Bitch you don’t know shiit about Blacks so I’d advise you to shut the hell up acting Black …so what is acting Black?
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO go christina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually Brit Brit Columbia is under investigation right now for using Payola not RCA.
Madonna won’t win a stick.
1) Christina swears she’s the most talented woman on earth she needs to wake up
2)Rca had her record a double album why? because when she sells 500,000 it won’t be a flop it will be 1,000,000 platinum for manipulated sales. Shania twain didn’t do this but xtina will cheat.
3) What was so great about Ain’t No Other Man?? The video was bland deja vu is a masterpiece compared to xtina’s video
4) There was a reason why she wasn’t on the VIBE cover. Sorry but i hate christina!

Don’t forget about this: Is CHRISTINA AGUILERA, she got 4 Grammys, she got one of the most powerful voices on the planet, she can dance, she’s beautiful and down on earth, and OF COURSE, is her COMEBACK! for god’s sake, It’s obvious that Christina have to have that kind of nods.
Beyoncé who? Justin what? Yeah, right, they’re just crap and if you don’t believe GO and hear the new sh1tt of justin or see the “video” of beyoncé! then you can realize why those “bitches” did’t get ANYTHING.
Again! IT’S CHRISTINA AGUILERA. (Mtv is serious and gives awards to people really talented).
^ I agree with u, Andy…101%
i love press pause that is my favorite song besides hold me down!
all these videos suck.
I agree wit andy!!!!!christina is now the ‘first lady of MTV’!!!and y is every forgeting that hip dont lye has 7 nods!!!it is a awful vid and shakira is overated
ALL Christina’s haters are soooo pathetic that they hav nothin to say but only christina christina christina which is very LAME!Y there is nobody complaining about other artists?Lyk Madonna.. Whats so good bout her video? Is Shakira’s video that good? ………BITCH all the way you want but let me tell you… Christina WILL WIN this year right in front of your faces!!
Oh Paris……u actually saying that Paris is better than Christina……I think you better go and have a brain wash…….duh! Grow up ppl ……why all the complains go to Christina???
We as Christina’s fans did not cheat or manipulated the votes….. Some of u r daying that bcoz ur fav artists did not get nominated particularly Beonce’s fans……We just vote vote and vote to help christina get nominated…That’s all and stop accuse us for nothin! Kelly clarkson’s vid is soooo bland…..y nobody complain???? That’s wat u call fair???
B-day….if you hate christina…..thats fine…but why the hell complaining botu her video? you said that beyonce’s vid is good? so u mean dancing around like a crazy voodoo in the whatsoever field is great…is a masterpiece? OMG…..and she did not CHEAT…beyonce is not that great either….she complete her album in 3 months and recorded 3 songs per day…. shes just rushing to get her album done and the QUALITY of the album will not be that great!
im a fan of xtina..but i dont understand why they nominated Aint no other man..?… the vid was premiered on 17th of June.. the vid is too new..
