We weren't even nominated?

So they held the American Music Awards last night. Yeah, it's just another made-up awards show, created by Dick Clark to fill some Sunday night programming for ABC and to dump more cash into his bank account. But they gotta find a way to make it a little more relevant to the real music scene.

For example, here's the nominees for "Favorite Male Artist — Pop or Rock"

• Josh Groban
• Lenny Kravitz
• Michael McDonald
• Usher

What!?!? A quasi-opera singer, a guy on the downhill slide that keeps doing annoying covers, a phone commercial guy who was last relevant 20 years ago, and one guy that acutally fits this category (luckily, he won).

Not that I don't appreciate all four of them, but are these the top 4 male artists of the year!?!?

God, I hate this stuff almost as much as those troughs at the Dome (see below).
