Best. Act. Ever (aka internet > MTV)
There is only one thing that could rival with the Obama presidency in the internet world today; and that’s one category at MTV’s European Music Awards: Best act ever. If you’ve been around the internet for more than a day, you know that the heart of the internet beats in these two unmistakeable words: Rick Roll. We’ve all been rick rolled; we all rick rolled others.
Internet users have their own sense of honor; they’re grateful to Rick Astley for leaving us his work to use for laughing. So it was obvious who was going to get the award; still, MTV tried to kill the democracy and kick him out of the competition (which frankly, was THE hugest mistake they could do). As far as I’m concerned, at this moment, MTV is shit. But if they would have done that, they would have gone beyond the epic bottom. Still, to cut a long story short, they gave him the prize.
Here’s what he had to say about this.
