Justin Bieber’s fans have done it again, this time at the 15th Annual Webby Awards, known as the “Oscars of the Web.”
Followers of the pop star, 17, voted him a People’s Voice Award Webby for his “Justin Bieber Takes Over Funny or Die” comedy video.
But not everyone wanted the Biebs to walk away with a win. Funny or Die competitor College Humor Tweeted, “If Justin Bieber wins this Webby, we’re pretty much opening the door for Ke$ha to win an Oscar. SAVE US ALL. Vote CH.”
Beliebers and other winners, including Conan O’Brien and Will Ferrell, can watch these celebrities accept their honors when the 15th Annual Webbys stream live across the globe June 13.

BTW, the article by Hollywood Life about Selena not thanking JB after her win is inappropriate and I have chosen to take it down. Read the comments below.
Bieber, overlooked at the Grammys, predictably won the fan choice Juno award — the only competition determined by ordinary fans — and best pop album (“My World 2.0). The teen sensation, on tour in Europe, sent a video message of thanks.
“I want to thank the fans so much for being so supportive, buying my albums and voting for me… All right — peace, Junos,” he said.
Bieber was outshone by Neil Young in the best artist competition. Young also received a humanitarian award.
“I was 16 one time. He’s fantastic. He’s got some moves, doesn’t he?” Young said of Bieber.

In a full-page ad in the New York Times, record executive Steve Stoute criticized the Grammy Awards over the weekend, saying the show has become “a series of hypocrisies and contradictions.” Stoute was particularly critical of Grammy voters snubbing Kanye West, Eminem and Justin Bieber, while those popular artists are invited to perform on the show. A request for comment from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences was not immediately returned.
Of Beiber, who lost the Best New Artist award to jazz singer Esperanza Spalding, Stoute said, “How is it that Justin Bieber, an artist that defines what it means to be a modern artist, did not win Best New Artist?” Millions of Beliebers have asked the same question.

Justin Bieber may not have gone home with a Grammy on Sunday night, but he did win big at last night’s BRIT Awards! The Biebs took home the Best International Breakthrough Act award, beating out Bruno Mars and the cast of Glee!
Justin’s got another big day ahead of him in Londontown–he’s off to the premiere of Never Say Never right now! JB just tweeted, “In route to the London Premiere! #NeverSayNever3D in the UK! Leggo!!”
And, yes, the rumors are true! Justin is giving free tickets to the movie to lucky fans waiting outside the premiere. “UK fans!!! heads up…rumors are true…the team will be giving out tickets to random fans at the O2 today for the #NSN3D premiere 2nite!” he tweeted.
Way to give back, Biebs!

Wow. This is so exciting!! I’m so happy for him. 1 year ago nobody knew his name and how he’s taken the world by storm. About.com’s prediction was pretty good….
2010 AMAs: Justin Bieber Wins Three Coveted Awards
Justin Bieber added three more awards to his collection at the live telecast of the 38th Annual American Music Awards. The Canadian pint-sized idol took home T-Mobile Breakthrough Artist, beating the shortlist of such competitors as Mike Posner, Lady Antebellum and Travis McCoy.
The “Baby” hitmaker who was introduced by fellow young star Willow Smith for his “Pray” performance also pocketed Favorite Pop/Rock Album, thanks to his “My World 2.0”. The extended play of his debut album “My World” topped Eminem’s “Recovery” and Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream”.
Later, Bieber was handed Favorite Pop/Rock Male Artist. He once again beat the Slim Shady in addition to his mentor Usher. “Without Michael Jackson, none of us would be here,” he said when collecting the prize on stage. The late King of Pop was inspiration behind his new song “Pray”.
Although losing two categories to Bieber, the Slim Shady who didn’t attend the November 21 prize-giving event managed to grab one prize. The rapper was named Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Male Artist in a tight battle against B.o.B and Drake.

…but they underestimated the power of J Bieber because he actually took home 4 awards (which Ace Showbiz also missed). Justin also won the biggest prize of the night, Artist of the Year beating out Eminem and Usher. Epic!
Congrats JB. Pattie must be so proud tonight.
