Last night, September 6, the most significant event was the MTV Video Music Awards 2012. The annual show is dedicated to awarding the best music videos shown on MTV over the past year.
For the One Direction boy band this evening was a real breakthrough. They took three awards with them: Best Pop Video, Best New Artist, and Best Visual Video Effects.
The holiday started with the song “We Found Love” performed by the brilliant Rihanna. Looking ahead, this duet composition was the best video of the year according to MTV.
Ex-boyfriend of the singer Chris Brown also was not left without an award. His video won in two categories at once, among them - "Best Male Video".
By the way, this couple also became the main scandalous sensation of the MTV Video Music Awards 2012. Rihanna’s bruises and their gap were discussed so much by the tabloids that few people believed their eyes when they saw the two kissing.
