MTV Europe Gets Rickrolled

Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up
Uploaded by trashfan

Rickrolling has entered a new stratosphere: the MTV Europe Music Awards!

Rick Astley has been nominated alongside Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Green Day, Tokio Hotel, and U2 in the "best act ever" award category. Ooh... Ahh... Behold, the power of the democratic, web 2.0 internet.

MTV Europe currently has a debate page about Astley's place in the "best act ever" category. According to the poll on the MTV Europe site, 99.98% of the votes say that Astley deserves to be nominated for the category.

Personally, I find the moniker "best act EVER" a bit ridiculous, especially in light of the majority of the acts that are nominated. I am all for rickrolling this event and will do so with the giddiness of a little school girl.
