The Grammy-winning singer, 24, scored 13 MTV Video Music Award nominations Tuesday – the most ever received by any artist in a single year.
“I’m so honored for all the little monsters and self-professed freaks of the universe, to have more VMA nominations in a single year than any artist in MTV history,” says Gaga. “Ironically, I’m even more proud it’s an unlucky number: 13.” She adds: “A long time ago the world told me and my little monsters we would never be heard, together we changed the rules. God put me on Earth for three reasons: To make loud music, gay videos and cause a damn raucous. Thank you, MTV!”
The revealed Nominations are:
- Best Collaboration (Video Phone – Telephone)
- Best Female Video (with Bad Romance and Video Phone)
- Best Pop Video (with Bad Romance and Video Phone)
- Video of The Year (with Bad Romance and Telephone)
- Best Dance Music Video (with Bad Romance)
- Best Choreography (with Bad Romance)
- Best Art Direction (With Bad Romance and Video Phone)
- Best Cinematography (With Bad Romance)
- Best Direction (With Bad Romance)
- Best Editing (With Bad Romance)
- Best Special Effects (With Bad Romance)
Note that GaGa has already “won” two distinctions: she received the most nominations ever in a single VMA year, and she’s the first female artist nominated for two different videos in the “Video of the Year” category for “Bad Romance” and “Telephone” featuring Beyoncé.
