The countdown to the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards has officially begun!
With only 5 days left until show time, CelebSecrets4U is giving you the breakdown on what you can expect from the summer’s hottest fan-driven music award show on Sunday, August 24th.
Today, we are sharing our thoughts on who will snag the famous moonman for Best Pop Video, Best Rock Video, MTV’s Artist to Watch, and Best Collaboration.
BEST POP VIDEO:
Pharrell Williams – “Happy”
Iggy Azalea ft. Charli XCX – “Fancy”
Jason Derulo ft. 2 Chainz – “Talk Dirty”
Ariana Grande ft. Iggy Azalea – “Problem”
Avicii ft. Aloe Blacc – “Wake Me Up”
When we look at this list, let’s be honest with ourselves, the first thing that pops into our heads is ALL these songs are so overplayed. But which one do you start to sing, when you look at this list? “Happy”, of course. No matter how tired you are of this song, you can’t help but clap and sing along every time you hear it – even if you do a little eye roll.
BEST ROCK VIDEO:
Imagine Dragons – “Demons”
Arctic Monkeys – “Do I Wanna Know”
The Black Keys – “Fever”
Lorde – “Royals”
Linkin Park – “Until It’s Gone”
As much as we want the Arctic Monkeys to win for best rock, we are definitely going to give this one to Lorde for “Royals”. This song was all over every radio station and place you walked into. “And we’ll never be Royals,” but Lorde definitely will be after this award.
MTV ARTIST TO WATCH:
Sam Smith – “Stay With Me”
5 Seconds of Summer -“She Looks So Perfect”
Charli XCX – “Boom Clap”
Schoolboy Q – “Man Of The Year”
Fifth Harmony – “Miss Movin On”
This one is definitely a tough one, it will be a battle to the death between Sam Smith and 5 Seconds of Summer. As much we adore Sam Smith and his angelic voice, we think fans would lean more towards 5 Seconds of Summer. They’ve played on Good Morning America, toured with One Direction, and have their very first HUGE headlining tour coming next summer. “They Look So Perfect standing there…” If they win, we hope they accept their awards with their American Apparel underwear! 😛
BEST COLLABORATION:
Beyoncé ft. JAY Z – “Drunk In Love”
Ariana Grande ft. Iggy Azalea – “Problem”
Pitbull ft. Ke$ha – “Timber”
Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne and Tyga – “Loyal”
Eminem ft. Rihanna – “The Monster”
Katy Perry ft. Juicy J – “Dark Horse”
