Awards
One Direction dominate VMAs
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 7 September 2012
So, MTV has presented its US Video Music Awards for 2012. And I think it’s fair to say the night belonged to One Direction, who took home three gongs, which is probably right, it has really been their year pop wise, hasn’t it? And, hey, they’re British, which is good since we’re all newly patriotic since the Olympics, right?
