Lady Gaga's VMA winning streak By Nikky Raney

Lady Gaga VMA dress: real meat

Lady Gaga won the majority of the awards at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards last Sunday night. Twitter was filled with "little monsters" jubilant about every single win, and others who were getting a bit annoyed at the predictability of the outcome. It is debatable whether the right artists won - or if it just a popularity contest. The fans rule the votes, but it seems as though some of the Lady Gaga fans voted for her in every category regardless of whether or not another artist may have been more deserving. Lady Gaga is brilliant, and there is no doubt that she deserved to go home with awards; but was she really the BEST in each category that she did win. Did fans judge based on the videos or based on whose video it was?

The winner's list from the night includes:

Best Female Video: Lady Gaga - ‘Bad Romance’
