Rick Astley is nominated, and with the slim competition he's up against, he will probably win best act ever.

Nice to see that MTV has a sense of humor.

We’ve been “Rickrolled!”

Over twenty years after his hit single went to No. 1 in 16 countries, 80s pop star Rick Astley has been nominated in the category Best Act Ever as his fans take his hit single ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’ literally and flock to write-in his name as a nominee.

Rick Astley – in his first ever nomination in the history of the MTV Europe Music Awards – will compete against Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Green Day, Tokio Hotel and U2 for Best Act Ever.

The finalists in the Video Star category were also revealed today as selected by MTV - with Madonna receiving her only EMA nomination this year for ‘4 Minutes’. She is battling for the Award against 30 Seconds to Mars, Santogold, Snoop Dogg and Weezer.

Here are all the nominees for Best Act Ever and Video Star:

Best Act Ever: Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Green Day, Rick Astley, Tokio Hotel, U2

Video Star: 30 Seconds to Mars – ‘A Beautiful Lie;’ Madonna feat. Justin Timberlake – ‘4 Minutes;’ Santogold – ‘L.E.S. Artistes;’ Snoop Dogg ‘Sensual Seduction;’ Weezer – ‘Pork and Beans.’

If only we could do this for government, Rick Astley for PM :thumbsup:

[Masked Bandit]

I wonder at what point does MTV take the step of removing him from the list?

[/////AMG]

Our poll on the issue has generated a ridiculous 20 million votes- suggesting that yet again we've fell victim to internet phenomenon 'Rickrolling'!

And the result is staggering- 99.98% of the votes say the Never Gonna Give You Up singer deserves to be in our prestigious category
