Yeah...

So now I have a reason to watch TRL (and since there will be no school on February 17th, I won't have to worry about missing it.

I hope U2 wins. That would rock if they did (if Justin Timberlake or J-Lo in particular win over U2...I swear to god I will hurt someone...).

Hey somethings amiss

I thought that the category U2 was nominated in was for best LIVE performance. I'd like to know how many of the other nominees "performances" were live, and not just another playing of the master recording.

Is this going to be another superbowl fiasco...

are they gonna show the TRL on tv live.. and is U2 gonna perform or anything?

If anyone of the others win over U2, there is something seriously wrong. U2, JLo and JTimberlake should NEVER have been written on the same list - that is a big insult!

I'm voting!

I don't think the TRL Awards are big enough for U2 to consider performing, especially when they are nominated for a *clip*, rather than an actual song or anything. They'll probably just play a clip from the performance.
