Un uomo solo al comando.
Dopo 7 anni di ‘silenzio’, è dominio Justin Timberlake.
VMA Awards 2013 a senso unico, quelli che verranno annunciati il prossimo 25 agosto, visto il più che probabile trionfo in ogni dove del bel Justino.
Segno che The 20/20 Experience, grazie a Mirrors e Suit & Tie, ha decisamente fatto colpo.
Per il resto briciole pop in campo femminile, con la Aguilera, Beyonce e Rihanna a quota 1, Lana Del Rey a quota 2, insieme a Pink, e Miley Cyrus a quota 3. Ovvero come e quanto sono i lontani i tempi delle 13 candidature firmate Lady Gaga, record dei record nel 2010.
