Beyoncé vs. Adele For VMAs
She’s one of the most celebrated performers of the modern era, and on Tuesday Beyoncé earned even more accolades, with 11 nominations in the MTV Video Music Awards for her “Lemonade” project. The “visual album†was released in April, two months after its politically charged “Formation” video was unveiled just before Beyoncé’s controversial appearance at the Super Bowl. Adele received eight nominations for the awards, seven of which were her video “Hello,” directed by the young French film-maker Xavier Dolan. Both “Formation” and “Hello” are nominated for the top award, video of the year.
