MTV African Music Awards

I really can't do much better with this one than to just copy/paste and highlight:

From: MTV holds its first African music awards - Associated Press

Two Nigerian singers won top awards Saturday as MTV held its first-ever music award program for Africa, with acts from across the world's poorest continent being nominated for prizes.

Winners were selected by fans sending text messages, said Alison Reid, a spokeswoman for MTV Networks Africa.

And yet, after all that, it's still more credible than Eurovision.

Not as strange as it may seem - mobile phone penetration is very high in Africa as it's much easier and cheaper to put in cell infrastructure than landines...

You leave Eurovision alone, it's wicked.
