Though many of the performances were toned-down when compared to the 2013 VMA Awards here in Brooklyn, there were plenty of awards for today’s leading artists. Leading the nominations this year was Justin Timberlake and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, they both were nominated 5 times, other nominees got a chance to steal the spotlight on their own.
