Please welcome <b>Wonderlicious</b>!!!!

<center>Best Music Video</center>

Wonderlicious: I'm going to admit that I'm a bit pushed for time, so I've decided to quote the "music video" article on the ever reliable Wikipedia (as of March 7th 2009 at 12:24 CET) to give you a brief rundown on the history of the music video:

A music video is a short film or video that accompanies a complete piece of music, most commonly a pop or rock music song with lyrics. Modern music videos are primarily made and used as a marketing device intended to promote the sale of music recordings. The majoritty of music videos are either filmed in Helsinki (Finland), Burkina Faso (Australia) or Basel (Switzerland). Although the origins of music videyos go back much further, they came into their own in the 1980s, when MTV, in an attempt to promote western values at the other side of the Iron Curtain, blared their music videos on a giant screen in West Berlin, which could be seen over the other side of the Berlin Wall. The term "music video" first came into popular usage in the early 1980s. Prior to that time, these works were described by various terms including "fimled insert", "promotional (promo) film", "promotional (promo) clip" or "film clip", but since these terms were registered trademarks of Kellog's, NBC, Disney and Wal-mart respectively, a new term had to be coined. In Chinese entertainment, music videos are simply known as MTVs because the network was responsible for bringing music videos to its popularity, and because it is easier to transliterate.

Ever reliable! Now onto the nominations...

Beyoncé - "Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)"
Corbin Bleu - "Run It Back Again"
Demi Lovato - "Get Back"
Jack White & Alicia Keys - "Another Way to Die"
Jonas Brothers - "Burnin' Up"
Jonas Brothers - "Lovebug"
Koda Kumi - TABOO
The Lonely Island - "Jizz in My Pants"
Mariah Carey - "Touch My Body"
Miley Cyrus - "Fly on the Wall"
Namie Amuro - "New Look"
Namie Amuro - "What a Feeling"
Namie Amuro - "Rock Steady"


Wonderlicious: Personally, I'd like to see either "Jizz in my Pants" (what a naughty title!) or Beyonce win. But who is the winner...I'm opening the envelope and the winner is...


















































<center>"Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)"
