The MTV VMAs are out - that's Music TeleVision Video Music Awards, which will be called the VMA awards, just like ATM machine means "Automatic Teller Machine Machine" - and Double-Ga got 13 awards.

Since the VMAs have enough categories for everyone, this means she was nominated for Best Video, Best Video with Music, Best Music Video, Best Pop Video, Best Female Video, Best - oh, careful, now. The entire list is here. Obligatory obvious closing line: the VMAs are very popular with the audience, since it's the only time MTV actually shows videos. Is that still true? Do you care? YouTube made them somewhat irrelevant, but those astronaut statuettes are still handy. A bag-full will keep a door propped open.
