The VMA‘s had to make an impact, yet again. 2009 was no exception, with numerous jaw-dropping moments. But the biggest one wasn’t even the big Michael Jackson tribute at the start, but Kanye West being the biggest jerk in the world, yet again. In an even lower low for him, when Taylor Swift walked up to accept her award for Best Female Video, he goes on stage, grabs her mic, and tells the world that Beyonce had one of the best videos ever, essentially robbing Taylor from her winning moment. This was the very first award presented in the night!

MTV surely didn’t know what to do that they cut off the mic and had to restart their next video gag 3 times! Later on the show, when Beyonce actually won, she asked Taylor to go up and have her moment back.

MTV has announced their nominees for the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, and two leading ladies are running for the most moon-men!

Tied for the most nods are Beyonce and Lady GaGa with 9 each (although Beyonce’s all 9 are for “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)” and Lady GaGa’s are mixed between her “Poker Face” and “Paparazzi“), going head to head in Video of the Year and Female Video among others. Following them are Britney Spears with 7 nods for her “Womanizer” and “Circus” videos, and Coldplay with 4. Also with 4 nominations are Kanye West and Eminem, who go head to head in all 4 categories, including Video of the Year and Male Video.

The show will once again be hosted by British comedian Russell Brand, and will air live all over the world on MTV September 13. You can vote now at www.mtv.com. A full list of nominees follows, after the jump.

There’s actual beef in the pop music world. Kelly Clarkson is pissed yet again, first of all because she just learned that her new single “Already Gone“, off her latest album “All I Ever Wanted“, sounds almost exactly like Beyonce’s “Halo“.

It wasn’t until she heard them side by side that she noticed, and now she’s being called a copy-cat, when in reality her album was finished and ready for release before Beyonce’s “I Am… Sasha Fierce” came out. Kelly is slamming OneRepublic‘s Ryan Tedder, who co-wrote both songs, for giving them both the same track to work with.

She is also beefed with her label (yet again) for still releasing the song as her newest single, knowing the controversy that it would entail. Kelly says they can do whatever they can since they’re the ones in charge, but she’s starting to be pretty vocal against their decisions again, after the fiasco that was “My December” back in 2007.

Every friday brings my top 24 songs of the week, they’re from different genres, based mostly on the Billboard Charts (Hot 100, Pop, Rock & Alternative), the American Top 40, and my personal likes and dislikes. So look for it every Friday!

This week brings the 3rd. consecutive #1 week for Green Day‘s “Know Your Enemy“, while we have only one debut song, Mariah Carey‘s “Obsessed” at #23.
