2011 MTV Video Music Awards Nominees


MTV has announced the nominees for the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. Katy Perry leads with nine nominations, including Best Video and Best Female Video for 'Firework", Best Pop Video for "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F)" and Best Collaboration with Kanye West for "E.T.".

Adele has seven nominations, including Video of the Year, Best Female Video and Best Pop Video for "Rolling in the Deep". Beyoncé, Eminem, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj and Thirty Seconds To Mars all have three VMA nominations between them. I couldn't help but notice that Rihanna didn't get any nominations for her videos this year. I don't know why, she released some great videos.

You can vote for the VMA categories, go here at vma.mtv.com or m.mtv.com on your mobile phone. The award show will air live on August 28 at 9 p.m. ET.

Check out the nominees for the "2011 MTV Video Music Awards" after the jump.
