9:06pm – Here come the opening credits!

9:08pm – Alexisonfire are performing on the John Street stage. Wow, they sound incredible! I photographed these guys two MMVAs ago on this very stage and it was a total rush. How amazing does their stage setup look? And the Toronto skyline…wow. It’s already dark, too. This is getting better and better. Wow…crowd surfing AND confetti. I’m on the fifth floor of the CHUM building right now and TONS of confetti is flying by my window!!!!

9:13pm – Avril Lavigne just won the MMVA for Best International Video By A Canadian for Girlfriend. Yay!

9:20pm – Matte’s introducing Avril again, to present an award! MuchMoreMusic Award…the winner is…Nickelback!

9:24pm – Here’s Belly‘s performance, featuring Ginuwine. Belly DID promise that this would be the performance of the EVENING. So watch and see! So far so good…sexy dancers…gaggles of female onlookers…string section…now they’re heading outside and they have a choir clad in white singing along!

9:33pm – Oh here comes Hedley again with their blowup doll! Nice, we just got a shot of a guy’s butt – must be Jacob’s standin since he’s not around to moon the crowd like he usually does. Nadine, MMVA SuperSTAR winner, just introduced Finger Eleven, who are performing on the rooftop – it’s the first time this has ever happened. Wowee, it looks RIDICULOUS!

9:43pm – Um. Perez Hilton is wearing a poncho. I don’t know what else to say about that!

9:57pm – Wow, you guys are enthusiastic commenters! I missed a few minutes of recaps just now cause I was busy catching up on approving your comments. We’ve had to shut down comments till the end of the show unfortunately – please keep reading/refreshing, and we will continue our discussion in the comments after the show :)

In the meantime – The Used are performing right now. That song that scares me The Bird & The Worm, I believe it’s called.

ALSO – earlier today, I forgot to mention that Ben of Billy Talent and I had an in-depth discussion about the show Lost. He described himself as a ‘borderline obsessive’ Lost fan. Heh. And I just walked by one of the offices and saw him rocking out on Guitar Hero 2. Cool!!

10:09pm – Amber Tamblyn is throwing to Hilary Duff! This should be good…With Love….nice trenchcoats. Wow, Hilary looks smokin’ hot! Kyle’s sitting beside me and his jaw is agape.

10:15pm – Best Rap Video Award…the winner is: Belly! Nice, first win of the night for him! I wonder if there will be more…

10:23pm – Jay Manuel is here to present People’s Choice – Favourite Canadian Artist, and it goes to…Avril Lavigne!!! And she is in tears! Holy emotional. She’s SUPER happy :)

10:27pm – Joss Stone just introduced Maroon 5, who are performing on the John Street stage. I don’t need to reiterate what has already been said: Adam Levine is sexay!!! They sound great!

10:33pm – Fan favourites Marianas Trench are presenting the award for People’s Choice Award – Favourite International Group…and the winner is My Chemical Romance! Congrats AGAIN MCR!

10:37pm – Tara Reid seems a bit subdued. Like, almost as if she’s…under the influence. OK…Billy Talent are about to perform! Yesss!

10:43pm – Hilary Duff just won People’s Choice Award – Favourite International Artist! I can’t stress how great “Hils” looks. Oh look, Leah and Hilary are having a lovefest on stage. They’re totally bff.

10:45pm – Sam Roberts is presenting People’s Choice Award – Favourite Canadian Group. The winner is…Billy Talent! The guys seem kinda shocked! oooh Ian is hurling confetti into the audience! Ben says “THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!” Indeed!

10:51 – Wow, we’re in the home stretch! Only nine minutes remaining! Fergie is presenting the award for Best Video! And the winner is…Billy Talent!

10:53 – SUM 41 are on stage, and guess who they’re introducing? Deryck just said it! Mrs. Whibley…aww, so cute! Will Avril drop an f-bomb? Ohhh…she said “mothereffing”. Good girl, Avril!
