MuchMusic Video Awards Winners

The MuchMusic Video Awards are annual awards presented by the Canadian music video channel MuchMusic to honour the year’s best music videos. In their modern form, the awards ceremony is not held in a conventional theatre, but instead as a large street party incorporating the MuchMusic World Headquarters, its parking lot, and parts of Queen Street West in downtown Toronto, Ontario.

There are no hosts or announcers in the traditional awards-show fashion; instead, the MuchMusic VJs are an integral part of the festivities, introducing (and interviewing) the awards’ presenters and winners throughout the show. As with many modern awards shows (such as the MTV Video Music Awards or the ESPYs), many presenters and performers may have little or no connection to the music industry or that year’s nominees.

This year LMFAO opened tonight’s MMVAs with a mashup of their dance hits Sexy & I Know It and Wiggle, performing onstage surrounded by acrobats, a guy in a pink bear costume and many, many inflatable zebras. Then, of course, they striped to their thongs and jiggled their junk. As co-hosts the duo also sported numerous pairs of neon-colored, leopard-print tights and cracked jokes with artists like Carly Rae Jepsen—Give it up for Maybe Rae Jepsen, they hollered at the crowd. “Hey, she said to call her Maybe…” The band won International Video of the Year by a Group for Sexy And I Know It.

Kelly Clarkson performed a medley of her songs Darkside/Stronger at the Much Music Awards. Rock out Kells! Kelly lost the International Video of the Year award to Katy Perry and her Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F) video. Seriously? Wassup Canadians?

Carly Rae Jepsen sang her chart topper Call Me Maybe while swinging from a giant telephone. Ur Fave Video of the Year and Video of the Year went to her Call Me, Maybe.

Flo Rida performed his mega hit Wild Ones with Jepsen making a surprise appearence singing the hook in place of Sia Furler, who was unable to attend.

And Katy Perry performed Wide Awake with acrobats twirling in fake trees placed onstage. Then she shed a silver-colored cloak to show a flesh-toned jumpsuit and massive, multi-colored butterfly wings opened around her. She won for Ur Fave International Artist or Group and International Video of the Year for Last Friday Night.

Justin Bieber closed the show with performances of All Around the World and Boyfriend. Justin won Ur Fave Artist or Group and International Video of the Year by a Canadian for Boyfriend. , while co-hosts
