 Amy Winehouse
The 24-year-old British singer-songwriter -- wearing a short, cleavage-baring denim dress and her signature beehive hairdo -- was struck speechless while accepting the award before a cheering crowd. All she could muster was "um" and "thanks" before leaving the stage.
"She clammed up, she had a moment there and didn't say anything (on the microphone), which is a little sad," R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe, who presented the honor to Winehouse, told AP Television News after Thursday's event. |

 Somewhere, Kevin Federline is laughing. An out-of-shape, out-of-touch Britney Spears delivered what was destined to be the most talked about performance of the MTV Video Music Awards — but for all the wrong reasons.
Kicking off the show Sunday night with her new single, "Gimme More," Spears looked bleary and unprepared, much like her recent tabloid exploits on the streets of Los Angeles. She walked through her dance moves with little enthusiasm. It appeared she had forgotten the entire art of lip-synching. And, perhaps most unforgivable given her once-taut frame, she looked embarrassingly out of shape.
Even the celebrity-studded audience seemed bewildered. 50 Cent looked at Spears with a confused expression; Diddy, her new best friend, was expressionless. |

 Britney Spears
The 25-year-old singer will perform "Gimme More" -- the first single from her upcoming album -- at Sunday's event in Las Vegas, MTV announced Thursday.
Spears, whose late-night partying and erratic behavior have made her a tabloid fixture, is a veteran of the VMAs: She performed "I'm A Slave 4 U" with a 7-foot albino python around her neck in 2001. |
