The Gummy Awards are Stereogum and Videogum's annual readers' poll celebrating the best music, TV, movies, and Web videos of the past 12 months. This year, in addition to tallying thousands of your votes, we're publishing a handful of celebrity ballots and a special essay by famed alt-ethnomusicologist Hipster Runoff. We also included a Best Album Of The Decade category, because the Internet requires it. Thanks to everyone who voted! (And congrats to our randomly selected Grand Prize Winner Tom Callahan of Cocoa Beach, FL! Enjoy the swag, Tom.) Here are the 2009 Gummys results...
