Honestly I’m rooting for Madonna and Cyndi Lauper, I just loved these two growing up and I’m actually shocked to see Cyndi back on the list. With all the drama with Madonna I’m shocked she didn’t get more nominees.

Some of you don’t want to go through an entire list of different categories, honestly I don’t blame you so here’s just a few names. These names provided below will list those that had the most nominations.

Lil Wayne- 8 nominations

Coldplay- 6 nominations

Jay-Z- 6 nominations

Jonas Brothers- 6 nominations

Kanye West- 6 nominations

Who do you think will actually win overall in the end? I’m of course rooting for the Jonas Brothers as I have two girls that are going to be screaming for them to win.
