O Music Awards Return with Mad Fans, Weird Stars & Much Ass

This past April, MTV launched a twisted new awards show/experience called the O Music Awards. They were all online, featured mad stuff like Chiddy Bang rapping live for a world record, Matt & Kim, Foster the People and Mumford and Sons performing live, mad fan armies, Lady Gaga, prizes for fan-generated categories and general mayhem. So F*ckYeahTheyreBack!!!

Today, the O Music Awards for this fall have launched and there are new categories that YOU/FANS created, and you can still chime in and get nominees included. The actual OMAs event will take place on October 31, 2011 (Trick or treat!). The "show" will broadcast live at OMusicAwards.com and across other MTV sites (MTV.com, VH1.com, CMT.com, LogoTV.com and MTVHive.com).

Battling it out for the most nominations are artists that run the gamut from web sensations to pop royalty to an outspoken legend. Leading with two nominations each are Odd Future’s Tyler the Creator (Most Outrageous Tweet and Best Web Born Artist [Editor's note: What no prize for weird-ass allegedly homophobic jerkwad?]), Lady Gaga (Fan Army FTW and Must Follow Artist on Twitter), The Weeknd (Best Web-Born Artist and Too Much Ass for TV), Katy Perry (Best Lyrics Video and Best Artist with a Cameraphone), Justin Bieber (Fan Army FTW and Best Artist with a Cameraphone), Demi Lovato (Fan Army FTW and Best Artist with a Cameraphone), and Sinead O’Connor (Oops! I Did It Online Award and Best Vintage Viral Video). Other nominated artists include Cher, Nirvana, Lil Wayne, Iron Maiden, Dolly Parton, Bjork, Wayne Coyne, Scissor Sisters, Best Coast, and Big Freedia.

Fan, innovators, products, and blog nominees include Air National Guard Band “Sidewinder” for their cover of Adele’s Rolling in the Deep, Topspin’s Ian Rogers and The Hype Machine’s Arkadiy Kukarkin in the Hottest Music NILF (Nerd I’d Like to F*ck) category, Banjo Hangout and Rap Genius for Best Music Forum, Spin and WFMU’s Beware of the Blog in the Beyond the Blog category, SoundCloud and Songkick in the Best Music App category, and Turntable FM and Spotify in the Most Addictive Social Music Service category.

Oh and... In addition, fans can participate via the O Music Awards Facebook page, OMA Twitter, and Tumblr.

AND... After more than 1,100 suggestions, MTV Music Group handpicked 5 user-generated awards for the show: Oops! I Did It Online Award, Best Artist with a Cameraphone, Best Web-Born Artist, Best Vintage Viral Video and Best Lyrics Video.

TRUST. This is serious. And pretty freakin' fun. Go VOTE and become a SuperFan, win a chance to attend the OMAs and just harass your friends with all your OMAs social media relentlessness.

Now listen to robotic voices as Demi Lovato explains it all:

Mwwaaaahhhh!
