Last night our European brethren were subjected to the shitshow that is an MTV Awards telecast. The taping was in Munich, Germany and featured Justin Timberlake being shut out (despite walking in with the most noms), Nelly Furtado winning album of the year, Linkin Park being named band of the year, and 30 Seconds To Mars taking the Rock Out category (presumably the Doucheband Of The Year award). The parade of poor taste took a momentary breather when Justice won the Video Star award (second year straight) and picked right back up with this terrible performance of "Back To Black" by Amy Winehouse. Why do they even let her perform anymore?

This comes on the heels of a report that Amy's dropped out of next week's mtvU Woodie Awards due to visa issues related to a past drug charge. Probably for the best, for everybody. Speaking of drug charges (terrible segue alert), Pete Doherty brought Babyshambles to Munich to perform "Deilvery" from the recently released Shotter's Nation. Went a helluva lot better than Wino's turn.
