Juno Awards Winners

Ξ April 9th, 2008 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Feist, Finger Eleven, Juno Awards, Rihanna |

I love Canada save for the part when it gave birth to Avril Lavigne. I have no problems with the Canadian version of the Grammy’s though – the Juno Awards. They recently held the ceremony on Sunday night and surprisingly enough, the amazingly talented Feist was the big winner by taking home 5 awards! Rihanna also won an award for best international album and hometown guy Michael Buble also took home an award. I wasn’t able to catch the show but I could care less if Avril won any award unless if it’s for most stupid. It would be a travesty if she won anything.
