    • Misty Jean

      LOL. I cannot wait to see the final results, but it looks like Beyonce stans got her first. Besides Nicki Minaj, I’m looking forward to all their albums next year. I didn’t know Christina had an album in the works!

    • Cindy

      Lol I luv it trent! I’m defo gonna b voting!

    • Taylor

      Can’t wait to see the winners. Hope some of my favorites win!

    • Lizardshit

      Uve shunned Rihanna, not gunna waste my time voting coz ur BIASED AS FUCK. Ill pay attention to the facts, and fact is Rihanna was #2 artist on Billboard Year End.

    • Sunshine

      ughh Bey Stans Thirsty AF lol smh Trent shouldve blocked the results from showing so people cant refresh then vote for the majority.

    • ihatemyles

      im lookin forward to ashanti next year!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • sam

      The Beyonce fans need to wake up…Beyonce overall was a non-factor in 2011. Most excited for Xtina’s 2012 album, hopefully she’s sorted out her voice and won’t be copying Adele.

    • Wayno

      Shade or did u simply forget to list Rihanna for best female artist? She was top 5 in Billboard. Not a stan, but u know she earned it!

    • Lola

      Too Much Beyonce, Not Enough Kelly!!!! #ThatIsAll

    • harray28

      Yass!! I love it!!

    • twitter.com/ayo_Ronnie

      The Beyonce stans obviouly like this site

    • hi

      Not that I really care, cause both are shit, but why would you not have rihanna in the best female artist and put nicki minaj in? Like I know it’s rihanna, but.. nicki minaj…. really? lol

    • Ben

      So I’m a Beyonce stan, but I def voted for Adele in every category she was nominated for. Beyonce and her girls MAY run the world, but Adele RAN 2011 with an iron voice.

    • Katiexx

      @Ben
      your not a beyoncé stan you just want cool points from Trent, I know for a fact you haven’t purchased an Adele album in your life or listened to her songs in the past 24 hours, it’s all name. BTW who the fuck wants there artist to win a “irrelevant” award from a flop website, guys Trent’s a snake he makes money of starting controversy, fucking Trinidadian shit bag.

    • Jonathan

      Christina Aguilera will rule 2012! She is nominated at this year’s Grammy’s and she also had a #1 with Moves Like Jagger for weeks on weeks this year. Can’t wait! Legendtina owns the throne.

    • http://twitter.com/jordaniewis Jordan

      In some of the categories, I couldn’t find myself to vote for any of the nominees lol

    • CHO_CHA_Pelua

      Can’t wait to hear the Brandy Project, she’s def the most versatile & creative vocalist on that list, would love a duet with her & xtina

    • Ras

      Very good. I think the hardest one was Most Underrated Artist.

    • fAB IT

      for once u did a very constructive shit well done can t wait to see the result

    • Rihannastan

      Nobody is anticipating Mariah, she’s a hasbeen

    • Girrrl

      Rihanna is the female artist of the year.
      11#1s 7 Grammy nominations #2 billboard artist of the year…

    • Girrrl

      And how can Beyonce be artist of the year when she just got snubbed by the grammys, had no hit singles, etc.

    • KD

      1+1 worst video of the year???? Really????

    • *V3R*

      Yay, i’m lookin forward to Mimi’s new project next year! Yep yep yep! :)

    • http://Facebook.com Veevy

      If beyonce party wins best collab over Chris look at me now, i will be seriously pissed.

    • http://twitter.com/veeveeanna Veevy

      I feel bad for bow wow.his ‘career is dead, ghost busters’ *in nick voice*

    • jasmine

      i really like the most underrated category cuz there are SO many underrated artist out now..you can add Lupe Fiasco to that list as well

    • Dray

      This is pure comedy. Tragic comedy at that.

    • theman

      @Rihanna stan is a Mariah stan in disguise. Sit your pitiful azz down.

    • Tristan

      Brandy’s gonna slay in 2012! She’s gonna possess everyone’s television, big screen, and beast on the music front. C’mon Rayanna!

    • a dab

      most anticipated album, at lease for me is Brandy’s. She’s been gone too long, and can’t wait to hear new material from her.

    • Lattisaw

      The fact is Mariah Carey is everything your fav wish she was but could never! Slay anyone of these irregularities vocally. MC has the most eagerly anticipated album of 2012! Have a seat lessers! The Queen is coming!

    • Naomi

      Can we not care about Grammys and number ones for one second? At least Beyoncé and Adele show growth, talent, and maturity. ’4′ was plagued by mismanagement but she will come back stronger. Adele may have only had 2 number singles this year but her album sales alone shit on any of the other girls. With that being said, Beyoncé & Adele >>>

    • ummkay

      Can’t wait for Brandy’s album!!!!

    • IMO

      People are really in their feelings over these results lmao

    • Julien

      Beyonce shouldn’t be nominated for half of these awards. Kelly Price released a better album than her in 2011. Getittogether.com!

    • michael

      chris brezzy em 1 lugar em todas categorias que esta disputando,ele deu a volta por cima e esta de volta, 2012 ele promete muito mais!

    • skay

      Brandy will snatch wigs in 2012!!

    • http://erikamuxfeldt ERICA BONATE

      o chris canta muito cara nota 10 esse ano

    • gdboyratedloud

      like…. who cares about this?

    • Breezy

      I love how the “Alert u need a new team” catorgory is almost even lol. Chris is about to be on there if he don’t promote is stuff like he cares

    • WigsnatcherTina

      Sorry to burst EVERYONE’S bubble but Christina Aguilera owns this bitch. With this next album, the Queen will be back to make everyone take their seats and get things in line again.

    • chianne

      Yes, suprised Rihanna wasn’t up in the obvious categories. But pleased at the strong support for Chris Brown – Look At Me Now, his anthem for 2011, and his VMA performance (thou AMA was better). He’s worked hard to get back on top

    • MeMe

      What a bullshit poll! Rihanna billboard #2 artist yet u didn’t include her in female artist category. It’s stick to the reputable polls, and facts.

    • shammyoko

      Some of yall are too pressed over some damn awards on a blog site FOH

    • Antonio

      I’m most anticipating Ciara’s comeback in 2012 because she’s the only one who’s comeback seem realistic. Brandy and Xtina need a whole new re-vamping that will allow them to connect with a younger, fresh fanbase. I don’t care for CB at all, Mariah will always be a fave of mine, but I’m not really interested in this album and Nicki’s album will NOT have the success of her debut, look at Drake. Those two just got caught up in the hype of Wayne pumping them up. They’ll be around for a good 2 more years before people grow sick of them. I’ll give Kanye or Bruno Male Artist of the Year and Female Artist definitely goes to Adele, her album has sold 15 million WW, only Gaga is even within some type of range with Adele this year seeing as how BTW has sold 8.5 million WW. But I’ll tie album of the year between 21 and BTW because 4 sucked. Beyonce tried tooooooooo hard to make an “revolutionary/epic” album and that’s why no one bought it.

    • Antonio

      The only reason I wont give CB Male Artist of the Year is because all his success is based off one song. Gaga, IMGHO, gave us some really unique videos this year, especially with Judas, TEOG and Marry the Night. Britney and Beyonce just got LAZY AF this era. They both just expected their fans to just buy their albums and that’s why they flopped. They both are only at like 850-900K in the US and like 1.5-.16 million WW, NOT good for the so called “Queens of Pop” of their generation.

    • Todd

      Brandy is about to smash!!!! 2012 She is her own competition!!! Her job is to make a great album so she can reintroduce herself again because the world seem to have forgot just how dope she really is….love her will be buying the album x10…

    • Sarah

      Im not anticipating any of those artists . Only mariah , Maxwell, and Alicia keys. I voted for Adele in most categories because she basically ran this year.

    • Navy

      This POLL is WACK beyond words!!!
      #next

    • suelivania

      vamos la chris brown vc é o melhor

    • http://dssence.net D.Scott

      Nice!, this was fun. My two (or three) cents: I think “We Found Love” (7 weeks No.1) should be up for Single Of The Year. And, lol, I thought all of the “Worst Video” noms were pretty solid. And Britney did 275K+ in the first week and had a solid tour, though (Re: Please Retire). Tough call between Chris Brown taking flight at the VMA’s and Beyonce’s army of beautiful women at the Billboard Music Awards, haha.

    • http://www.divadevotee.com/ mariah fan

      Marian and Ms Aguilera! Can’t wait!

    • http://thelavalizard.com anonymous

      @antonio, chris wasn’t just successful because “one” song he bounced back this year compare last year when hardly the award shows were still blackballing him. He did really great this year compare last year. If you check out billboard charts of 2011 he’s on every single chart list there except for the country and rock chart lists. and as for Beyonce and Britney even though i’m not a huge fan of them they are still one of the biggest selling female artists of all time doesn’t mean they didn’t do well this year it doesn’t mean their whole career was a flop. #justsaying

    • theman

      Mariah,Brandy,Christina

    • whnotaskwhy1980

      SO MUCH FUN TRENT!

    • X

      The Fist Brown fans were in full effect i see.

    • http://thelavalizard.com anonymous

      @x, you’re mad? if you aren’t mad then why worry about him and his fans?

    • mobwife

      *My Album of the year was F.A.M.E. by Chris Brown

      *Best Live Performance is clearly Chris Brown’s VMA performance WTF? You ppl must be smoking crack. Chris’ performance followed by Beyonce’s at the Billboard Music Awards even if it was “barrowed” she still shut it down!!!

      *Khia’s “busted looking ass” needs to have several seat in a open grave…LOL

      *OMG that Quickie video was terrible! I really like the song but the video motion camera they used made me nauseous!

      @Trent great list!! :-)

    • http://www.twitter.com/veeveeanna vee

      @x Y U MAD
      and fist brown, really, that so 2009

    • x

      @anonymous i don’t worry about any man with serious anger management problems tho.

      @vee yeah but it still riles ya’ll asses up! lmao

    • http://thelavalizard.com anonymous

      @x, naw, little tramp calling him fist is so 2009 nobody doesn’t say that s**t anymore. Oh and he’s not 2009 if he was then why he’s still selling out tour arenas his fame tour was very successful think about it before you speak. But you must be mad since you’re taking this poll too damn serious at the end of the day this poll is for fun i’m laughing at your ass for getting frustrated behind your computer lol internet thugs got to love them :)

    • CBFan

      I’m crossing my fingers for Chris Brown!!!!

    • katie londonner

      im from london and im a fan of this site. i viewed the results and saw that adele was winning most of the polls. i feel like alot of the people abroad like internationally are all jumping on adeles dick, shes been great for years. i feel like 21 wasnt her best work, 19 was. just because it wasnt as successful that album was soooo much better. americans love to jump on British artists and try and steal our type of music. i feel alot of people have band-waged on her. 19 lyrics and content was way better musically. just because it wasnt as succesful as 21 doesnt mean that it didnt have people talking about her voice.

    • Britni

      Why is Ciara not in the “ALERT: YOU NEED A NEW TEAM” category? That child needs some help.

    • x

      @anonymous wtf are you even talking about lmao i never even called Chris “2009.” You’re the one who’s getting mad. Writing essays and shit, gurl bye

    • http://thelavalizard.com anonymous

      @x, chile how am i the one that’s mad when you were the one that brought up teambreezy by talking ish about them. Don’t get mad if a person you like isn’t in the lead poll if you got a problem then keep voting there is no need to talk ish about other teams like i said this voting poll is for fun.

    • Ben

      So I looked back at the polls, and while I stated above that Adele RAN 2011, how in the heck is she in the lead for Best Live Performance? I don’t get it.

    • Ben

      @Katiexx

      Why in the fuck would I want cool points from someone I don’t know? Trent ain’t sending me coins for saying shit or giving up the goods for my endorsement, so please have several, luxurious seats and have a nice day. You sound really mad at him though… maybe you should take that up with him. And how do you know what/who I buy, listen to, and/or stan for? Pressed heaux you don’t know me. ^__^

    • http://twitter.com/#!/MarieAnneCB MarieAnneCB

      VOTE FOR CHRIS BROWN ! He deserves to win ! ♥
      Please Show Breezy your support! Mwah big kisses #TeamBreezy!

    • olly_tei

      Why the earth is 1+1 up for worst video? i can understand that some wanted a story but the visuals were gorgreous.

    • x

      @anonymous i was just stating an observation O:-)

    • anonymous

      poor @ x there is no need to act childish. Just because Chris Brown is doing Great this year. It must be hard seeing him doing just fantastic! With or Without your support. :)

    • x

      @anonymous yes it was great seeing him keep his hands to himself this year. ki.

    • http://thelavalizard.com anonymous

      @x, why are you still on this post knowing trent just post the winners? lmao what an idiot i came back on this post because i know your ass was late with your lame comebacks

    • monika
