An interesting thing happened during the award show. Guess what?
Joe of the Jonas Brothers felt down when they came out of the “glass” sheet onto the stage. He slipped and slided across the stage. Nice… slide! Is it scripted or is it an accident?
I think it is an accident ‘cos his shoe knocked the bottom of the frame causing him to fly across the stage.
After the Jonas Brothers were introduced, two girl fans rush up the stage to the amazement of everyone. The security guards had to do what they are supposed to do – calmly escorted them of the stage.
When Sugarland were singing Beyonce’s song, “Irreplaceable” , all of a sudden Beyonce came on stage and join them in singing her song. The song was quoted as the most heard song of the year. Beyonce was awarded the International Artist award.
