Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

When is the World Music Awards?
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Great News!!!!!!

Although is this up to the public to vote or is it chosen by the WMA's Reps?
Because theres no clear place on the website to cast a vote :(

Cheers for the news again!!!

EDIT:
Sorry I didnt relalize the WMA's were tomorrow sorry obviously now it aint a public vote
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Where in the hell did they get the nominees? MJ is the only one on there who makes sense. The female category makes a lot more sense. Oh well, he's likely a sure bet to win.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Well, the WMA is based on sales and only those. T25 and the original Thriller album together sold something like 3 milion copies, hope I'm not wrong on this one.

But I think James Blunt sold more than T25.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Please do not use the prefixes as they are only for staff to use. Thank you.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Oooo coool, a nomination. :D Wonder if he knows about it.
Thanks for posting!

Michael's Thriller + 25 has sold more than James Blunts album altogether
James Blunts latest album has flopped compared to his 1st album release, well thats in the UK anyways
This is obviously the World Music Awards and that means in total ......
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

AWESOME... I hope MJ wins World Best Pop Male Artist
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

i hope he wins, go Michael! :):cheeky:

(i totally thought that the WMA was today, and by reading the topic with Breaking news prefix i thought he made a surprise appearance :lol:)
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

That's awesome!!!!:punk: Go Mike!!!

Isn't it wonderful that his (25 year old) album sold around 3 million copies this year compared to other new albums' sales!!!! OMG! You rock Michael!:clapping:
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

I know thriller 25 did really well selling over 3 million worldwide in 12 weeks

wiki states james blunt shipped 4 million worldwide, so we need an updated total
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

verry strange ... really ...surprised me this nomination ... I`m glad for Michael ... I do not know what to say ...

We will see tomorrow what will be .... Good luck, Michael!​

Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Guys the last time I remember when Michael Jackson was on and we thought that they would show it like the following days well remember it was weeks for some countries? We will have to keep an eye on the website www. worldmusicawards.com as they will announce when it will be aired in your country.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Michael rulez! Wherever he is - wherever he goes - he always wins!

Yes you are entirely true there!
We knew he was there but it was'nt aired for a good while....
Well other than on the news anyways
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

In honor of ALL of MJ's fantastic contributions to music, it would only be fitting that he receive this award. All of the others are newcomers compared to MJ. MJ has STAYING POWER.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

wher is the WMA's??? Cuz i suppose if it aint in LA then michael wont be ther right??? or is he not in LA no more???? I hope hes there but i doubt it :(
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

It's in Monaco.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

I doubt seriously that Michael is going to attend this.
 
Re: World Music Awards 2008 (Michael Jackson nomined to World Best Pop Male Artist)

Thanks Horakhty :)

Here's my write-up about this, including scheduled airdates and sales stats:

WMAs: Michael Jackson Nominated For Best Male Pop Artist

Michael Jackson (Thriller 25) has been nominated as the "World's Best Pop Male Artist" for the 2008 World Music Awards, set to take place in Monaco on November 9, 2008. Other nominees in this category include Kid Rock (Rock 'N Roll Jesus), Enrique Iglesias (95/08), and James Blunt (All the Lost Souls). If the winner is determined based strictly on worldwide sales for each artist's top-selling album or compilation in 2008, Michael Jackson will rightfully be named the winner since Thriller 25 has indeed sold more, worldwide, in 2008 than any of the other mentioned albums. The event will broadcast in the USA December 2nd on MyNetworkTV--and will air live in the Middle East and Africa. It will air in Ireland on Sunday, November 16th on RTE 2, and will air on Channel 4 in the UK, November 21st (with a repeat on T4).

Michael Jackson: Thriller 25 (2,238,500 Worldwide Sales) - #12
Kid Rock: Rock'n'Roll Jesus (2,153,000 Worldwide Sales) - #13
James Blunt: All the Lost Souls (1,047,000 Worldwide Sales) - #37
Enrique Iglesias: 95/08 Exitos (~800,000 Worldwide Sales) - Not in to 50


There has been no word yet with regards to Michael Jackson's plans for this event. When Michael Jackson was honored at the 2008 NRJ Music Awards early this year, he appeared via a videotaped message.
