I hope that 30 Seconds to Mars wins each category they are nominated for. Their music is deep, passionate and full of heart. They don't play 'Cookie Cutter' music for which I'm grateful!

Eeck!!! BORING MTV NOMINESS!!! They are freakin the same! Thats why I dont watch this MTV awards anymore. Things were so much better in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's. Now they are all sell out and stuck up artists!
