Noinations have been announced for the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. Beyonce and Lady Gaga lead the pack with nine MTV Video Music Awards nominations each, with Britney Spears right behind with seven nods. One new wrinkle for this year's even is BEST VIDEO (THAT SHOULD HAVE WON A MOONMAN), which seeks to right previous wrongs by bestowing awards upon great videos that never won VMAs.
Jake Nava leads all directors with nine nominations for Beyonce "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)." Other directors with multiple nominations include Joseph Kahn with six (Eminem "We Made You" and Britney Spears "Womanizer") and Ray Kay, Jonas Akerlund and Francis Lawrence with five each.
