Biebs takes home Moonman for 'U Smile' video.
Eminem showed no fear last year at the MTV Video Music
Awards, nabbing Best Male Video for "Not Afraid" over Drake, Usher
and B.o.B. But in 2011, fearless, lie-loving Eminem was no match for the
feverish smile of Justin Bieber.
The Biebs took home the win for "U Smile," winning
out over Em's "Love the Way You Lie," Cee Lo Green's "F---
You," Bruno Mars' "Grenade" and Kanye West's "All of the
Lights."
After presenter Kim Kardashian announced his name, Bieber
popped up, snagged a smooch with girlfriend Selena Gomez, and headed up
onstage, where he delivered a heartfelt message about the role of a higher
power in his ascendance to the top of the young pop crop.
"I just want to say thank you so much, not only to God
but to Jesus," Bieber said. "Because I wouldn't be here without Him.
He's really blessed me. He's put me in this position. So I want to say thank
you so much."
The win marked two Moonmen in two years for Bieber, who
nabbed Best New Artist for "Baby" at the 2010 VMAs (besting Ke$ha,
Nicki Minaj and Jason Derülo) and who is quickly making certain his name and
music are deeply engrained in the MTV award show. Last year, of course, Bieber
opened the VMAs with a medley outside in Nokia Plaza. This time around, he
skipped a performance but still found himself at the center of the action
inside the theater.
"Also, I want to say thank you to all the other
nominees," Bieber said. "They were amazing. I'm a true fan of all of
them, so I want to share this award with all them. You guys are amazing."
