Guys! Guys! You all know all these crappy awards are just about popularity. The Emmys, Grammys, Oscars.... all the same thing. It's a popularity contest. Well, the Oscars tries to be "ooh! Look how sophisticated we are. We watch movies about political things and pretend to take sides." but it winds up giving an award to Shrek. I like Shrek, but that really didn't deserve to win over monsters Inc. Come to think of it, Jimmy Neutron shouldn't have even been nominated.

but that's what you get. Punk, heavy metal, blues... they're all under the rug. That's cuz the only thing that sells is pop music. Pop rock, pop rap, pop country.... all that stuff.

So of course, they're gonna give more time to Justin Timberlake than B.B King or someone like that. That's what unfortunately sells.
