The MuchMusic Video Awards were the toast of the town yesterday, with dozens of hot celebrities walking the red carpet and greeting their fans before the show.

Give the folks a hand, they know how to throw a party.

For the umpteenth time I attended the annual MuchMusic Video Awards, and while there are always a few bumps on the road, it was an incredible event once again. Most notably I was blown away by how many screaming fans they were able to pack around the stages and on the street at the corner of Queen and John.

Toronto fans were reduced to screaming throngs tonight as the annual MuchMusic Video Awards brought together some of the biggest names in music for a gigantic block party that shut down the corner of Queen and John streets in downtown Toronto.

In just a few hours, downtown Toronto will once again host one of the year’s biggest music parties: the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards.

May has been a busy month, my friends. I realize I’ve been neglecting my blog, so I wanted to make some time and get back to posting again.

The good news is that there’s some good stuff going on as summer gets closer, including some interesting industry stuff.

There must have been a lot of hoarse fans in Toronto following the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards, which drew dozens of the world’s biggest pop stars to the corner of Queen and John on Sunday, June 21.

The 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards are barely over, but The GATE wanted to give you a little keepsake to remember some of your favorite moments from this year’s show.

We will have lots more of our own photos from the event tomorrow, but to keep you amused here are three photos courtesy of MuchMusic.

Celebutantes, nouveau famous, and the genuinely talented all collided tonight at the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards for an evening of partying, schmoozing, and well, posing.

It was a good show, as these things go, and I really enjoyed the lineup of stars, from the Black Eyed Peas and Audrina Patridge to Billy Talent (who brought their dads with them for Father’s Day!) and The Stills. (I’ll also have to admit that it was nice to see Girlicious again this year, if for no other reason than the lovely Nichole Cordova.)

The MuchMusic Video Awards announced two more presenters today, just three days ahead of the festivities, revealing that Drake and the lovely ladies of Girlicious will be walking the red carpet and presenting awards.

Nominations for the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards are in, and love them or not, Nickelback topped the list with five nods, tied with R&B singer Danny Fernandes.
