Grammy 2004 - Best New Artist - Evanescence

[McGloomy]

"In addition to Fifty Cent I want to thank..."

Love you, Amy!

[SuperJJdyno]

50 cent was not a bigger success than Evanescence. His 'Get Rich, Or Die Tryin" sold 12 million to date, 'Fallen' has sold more than 17 million. Did you jackasses even study mathematics?

[MrRoxxstar]

I just realized, with the comment I left below., every lowlife-Saggin-Porch-Monkey "Gangsta" on youtube's gonna start bombarding me with their overwhelming intellect and witty comebacks now !... Oh., the Life of a Cracker !!!

[MrRoxxstar]

You can take the Nigger out of the Hood., but you cant take the Hood out of the Nigger...

[DatEnigmatic]

Big deal. You lost and they won. If you don't win, you don't win. What matters is that you are nominated; it's better than not being nominated for a Grammy.

[prettycrazy420]

really? how unproffesional can u possibly be... as an artist he should of been willing to give credit where credit WAS due! as a self proclaimed "thug" he made himself come off as a jealous pre-madonna. I just lost all respect for him.(not that i had much to begin with) just surprised me how much of a douch bag he is.

[casimirovellocejudo]

50 cent Ashoole !!

¬_¬

[ClutchLikeMeIo]

Emo bitch thinkin she funny. 50 got robbed we all know it

[prettycrazy420]

@ClutchLikeMeIo regardless on if u thought he got robbed or not that was ridiculas...all he did was make him self look stupid.

[ProductionsStarQueen]

Why wont people just shut up??? You may like one band or another, I dont care. You should respect other people and other music and other fans. I dont hate 50 cent, however I do think that what he did was quite rude. Luckily, Amy didnt take it too seriously but it still was a bit disrespectful. Still, do I insult him? No. Do I say he has no talent? No. Do I say he and his fans are shit? People please just chill ok??? Theres a ton of different music out there...

[CyanoticFuture]

So "Fiddy cent" was shot 9 times huh? damn , people, learn how to shoot better or this shit happens....

[TheMackattack1234567]

Evanescence is a one hit wonder.

[XxcalvindudexX]

@TheMackattack1234567 They're in the charts right now, wouldn;t consider that a 'One hit wonder'

[gomarcphil]

why is she taking all the credit? aren't they a band

[TheGreenGreenGras]

why took 50 not the mic from that goth bitch???

[3KingG]

@TheGreenGreenGras Can't tell if your trolling of just stupid.

[Reaper14emilio]

Evanescence the band,each member show skill and talent. amy has amazing vocals while 50 sounds boring. anybody can rhyme. try hitting some high notes

[caydeeisamachine]

what an arse

[quintonhenwood]

well monkeys do clown around

[quintonhenwood]

only 12.5% of america is black people so yah. and eminem is a halfcast so he dont fit anywhere hahaha

[dogliford]

i actually don't think it was rude, if you have a sense of humor you'd think it was funny

[whyty227]

Im not a big fan of 50 cent, but he clearly should have won. Look at their careers over the years. Evanescence who?

[ProductionsStarQueen]

@whyty227 the price was for best NEW artist... and to answer your question, Evanescence has been incredibly succesful, they recently made a new album and its probably the best they´ve ever been. They have evolved so much and made a huge impact. I barely know 50 cent.

[whyty227]

@ProductionsStarQueen You personally may barely know 50 Cent but his career has been a bigger success than Evanesence. Let's say that yeah ok they did deserve to win that award. It's ok, because 50 Cent still has the larger fan base with bigger success and high charting albums. His career has far surpassed theirs. Maybe at the time they where a better candidate, but look at them now.

[SuperNiceone2011]

I LOLED SO HARD HHH

[JawaPunter]

It's a shame she couldn't have bought herself a whole dress.

[thegreig]

Evanescence are shit. 50 should have got it

[samtucan000]

No wonder someone shot him. What an asshole. Nicely handled though Amy!

[MultiGirl22]

sean paul or 50 cent should had won!!!

[L3l013]

Yeah.... poor idiot. He felt so upset he didn't win (boo hoo, lets cry.) Evanescence deserved that award and super happy they got it!

[merocket]

@L3l013 They are a fucking awful band. The quality of 50 Cent's and Evanescence's music is the same.

[Dankniggah420]

wtf is Samwise Gamgee doin with shoes on?

[dnon75]

evanessence is such garbage

[cheaptoons]

may be it was good taste but i don't like 50 ... as long amy lee is happy thats all thats matters

[Sevigny70]

lol this cannot be compared to what kanye did...I'm not saying 50 should have done it at all.but he didn't "interupt" them and he just walked on stage and walked right off. it was actually kinda funny. kanye is just a little cunt bitch

[Drose4president]

original kanye moment

[herromyfrrend]

its good he interrupted them! they created a song that will later haunt youtubes recommended music forever

[SkylitDriveFan123]

I don't see how 50 could be qualified for "new artist". Hasn't he been a big name in rap for nearly 20 years. That isn't very "new" of an artist.

[WillowDeborah]

@SkylitDriveFan123 I think this video is quite old as the song they played of his was "in da club" which is on his first album I think.

[Drose4president]

@SkylitDriveFan123 20 years???

[yeaaahboooyyy]

@SkylitDriveFan123 what are you talking about? 50 cent's debut album came out in 2003, the same year these awards were.

[SkylitDriveFan123]

Amy, I'm very happy for you, and imma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time *crowd makes mixed noises* one of the best videos of all time

In all honesty, it was pretty funny, and he wasn't an ass, unlike the guy who ripped off him named Kanye.

[tankz22]

wasnt worst than kanye he straight bugged out by actually taking the mic n sayin another artist had a better album

[gumshiel]

he the biggest cheer was for 50 haha

[FUnKMEnews]

Numbers don't equate to talent or quality, you suckers are so DUMB!!!

[Hot33333333]

50 should of won he sold 12 million copies worldwide that year the most of any artist that year like come on now smh

[Dimafyx]

@Hot33333333 Grammy is not about the fucking sales.

[ThatwasTERRIBLE]

@Dimafyx 50 Cent was the total package when he debuted. Album sales, popularity, talent, and his album was a classic. It was not just about sales.

[neechiebabe]

- hm, i don't see how that was so bad.. he didnt do anything but walk across the stage... & because he knows he's sexy <3

[amcdon12]

why yall trippin? LOL fifty was just kidding around!!!!!!

[ElliesTSLyrics]

Did 50 actually say anything?

[PatmanTHB]

50 is the shit...but how can anyone feel so entitled? ....just not the way my brain works i spose

[jchrism7]

Rap sucks! Amy Lee is sooooo cute!

[calvinhay90]

when she says "thanks 50", she makes a motion with her hand to her mouth, does anyone know what she is doing?

[tkthakid]

@calvinhay90 yeah... clearing her throat... smh... no more to it

[AnthonyJP91]

@calvinhay90 I think she goes "Woooo!"

[TheFesta01]

@calvinhay90 she's just clearing her throat, its polite to cover your mouth : )

[jetsupers]

50 cent - what a nigger

[jimmyyao2010]

thumbs up if u skip the video after 50 walk thru the stage

[101andwhat]

haha nah fif was polite man, he is a good dude, just don't fuck with him. man makes me laugh tho.

[AshleyRudySupaThick]

wat did he do tht ws so wrng he aint say nun at all he jst wlkd thru thm n sat dwn yall ova duin it it aint een dt serius

[jungle10ful]

I loved rap but I was glad that 50 didnt win.

[Leclerc2342]

fuck evanescence

[oraangatang]

lol @ the people calling Evanescence goth/emo crap. They deserved that. Go back to getting pregnant at 14 and overdosing on drugs you gangstaaas

[MrCraigTheGreat]

50 cent is my nigga, lol

[VinceMcJericho]

50 cent sucks dick

[FierceViking]

Also you should be open minded and listen to some Evanescence like 50 Cent does. The album was deeper than 50 Cents. 50 knew it thats why he shook their hands. I should know because when I was a kid I was Punk/Gangstaa and I owned both albums. To me Heat is still baddass to this day! But nothing compares to Evanescence's lyrics. Instead hating appreciate be more open minded try something new for a change you might enjoy it. That goes to The Evanescence Party and The 50 Cent party.

[mattbane]

Hahahaaaa!! at least he didn't completely interrupt her & take the mic.

[TheFukkup]

she clowned 50

[luvsweetheart]

why this freak keeps puttin her hand over her mouth gaspin like that she looks so fake her words cant even speak what fuckin emo goth loser wannabee in halloween suit way past deadline

[xcait95x]

@luvsweetheart

If only that made sense.

[Roxy3856]

@luvsweetheart you sound so ignorant right now.

[FierceViking]

@luvsweetheart she's not a freak. I'm a freak and she's SEXXXXXYYY. AND FREAKS LOVE US SOME HOTTT FEMALES. Also she couldn't speak because she was shocked that he came up on the stage, I'm sure Amy is Gangster and she's not the only one in the band. I bet she listens to 50 Cent's music because she knew who he was. If she didn't she would have never acknowledged his presence Plus 50 is over that and he's cool with Evanescence now. There is no bloodshed/beef between the two.

[luvsweetheart]

@FierceViking well it does take a freak to like a freak haha. suit yourself you're probably just another emo freak that cuts himself daily cryin for attention. how sad it is to be you. I hope you get a life someday...

[FierceViking]

@luvsweetheart I'm a freak in bed. ahhahhaaa an emo ? THE FUCK ???? If you go to my page you'd know that I'm not an emo you piece of shit troll. I'm anti-social what makes you think I want attention ???? You must be one of those little bitch's that want to be a ganstaa but you can't because your life is a joke. soooo whats your story ??? were you raped as a kid ???? I'm beginning to think that your the emo. Also I don't cut myself, I cut parasites like you.

[CaRyS469]

@luvsweetheart I think you need to calm down :/

[luvsweetheart]

Sean paul or 50 shoulda won fuk this crap druggy emogoth music winnin

[IAmProbablyMike]

@luvsweetheart 8 years ago. get over it :')

[sshakababy]

Who's that idiot witrh the stupid outfit walking across the stage?

[chrome381]

[bananafarmer123]

[chaneyambeau09]

[Papato1234]

50 CENT is a nobody? YOU ARE A NOBODY BITCH you making comments at you tube @HellsLeeWay

[chaneyambeau09]

[luvsweetheart]

@chaneyambeau09 exactly what i mean shouldnt even have won fuk

[SaltpattiesTV]

[unknown571]

he did that because he sold the biggest hip hop debut ever that year

[viciouslyxdelicious]

WHY HE DO THAT?

[u18nffc]

what 50 cent to to them? i didnt see it..

[TheKidGotRacks]

shes just tight 50 shudda won that cuz look at him now compared to her

[JoeAverage000]

@TheKidGotRacks ok... but this was 2004... not 7 years later... so that year, Ev was better... they did sell more

[TheKidGotRacks]

@JoeAverage000 bro ur wrong again lmao for 2003 50 sold 6,535,809 off his 1st album. Evanescence only sold 3,364,738...then in 2004 Evanescence only sold another 2,614,226...do the math.

[geniegotback]

and 50 Cent beaten the shit out of a prostitute after this to get his anget off

[geniegotback]

@geniegotback ANGER i meant anger :D

[LadyStarAussie]

I had nooo idea that was ben untill about 20 seconds ago :O omg!! lol

[al7omed8Ball]

hahahaha 50 disrespectful as usual, he cracks me up

[deathsolder666]

50c is shit like all rap 

[TheHillaryBH]

Lmao... Amy handled that quite well. I'm surprised she knew who he was, lol, at least he didn't say anything like good old Kanye. =)

[salamKONVICT]

Why didnt 50 win that hes so much better

[lysjocksan]

@salamKONVICT ...no he's not

[shagottaholla]

That fountains of wayne album was pretty awesome lol off topic

[lev0n3241968]

I knew 50 cent when he was just 25 cent. The other 25 cent has had a tremendous influence on his personality these days...for the worst.

[brownpride315]

lol harmless fun bitches!!! too much amy-lee

[emodalittleboy]

fuck u 50 cent!!!!!!!love evanescence

[JamezGotSwag]

@emodalittleboy Lol... 50 should of won.

[RonaldoandBeckham7]

man 50 cent's dope but that girl main him look stupid! aha perfect response.

[HellsLeeWay]

50 Cent is such a dick - Amy has more talent than him in her little finger alone.

[MukuroHiroki]

This is where kanye got his idea from :3

[StuckScarab]

thousands of wrists have been slit during the playing of her music.

[HellsLeeWay]

@StuckScarab Grow up. Their music isnt depressing, it tells you that its okay to be yourself. If you dont like it, dont listen to it. Simple.

[WillowDeborah]

LOL gotta love 50

[LoveMusicForeverLMF]

@WillowDeborah No one does.

[EmilySuydam]

@WillowDeborah not really...he was being a jerk.

[WillowDeborah]

@EmilySuydam aha, I agree he was being really rude but it gives the public something to watch.

[IzzyPeralta]

Out of that catagory 50 cent should have one. All of those other artist suck.

[HellsLeeWay]

@IzzyPeralta Yeah, because a rapper promoting sex and violence really deserve such an award. He isnt fit to call himself a role model. Evanescence are awesome.

[TheRayzor86]

50 was robbed his music was playing all over the place evanessence too but 50 was played alot more

[bruvarrvok]

50 should have won

[NinjaTaco08]

Well, seeing as everything 50 puts out now sucks ass, perhaps they got it right.

[vodka4199]

ughhhh, this is so embarassing! why would 50 agree to embarrass himself like this? I have nothing against 50 though, some of his songs are good. Evanescence too are really great! their first 2 albums was completely off the chain and there new album too is ok. But damnn! 50 really embarrassed him self big time!

[limellexX]

for some reason men just wont let women get their moments of glory

[PeterEhik]

50 was robbed, 12 fucking million records, come on!!!

[Devonatior09]

@PeterEhik evanescence 18 million

[PeterEhik]

@Devonatior09 well that shut my mouth, didnt know she did that good so I guess she deserved to win. Dont like rock too much so dont even pay the slightest attention to it. I was wrong, so why was 50 so bitter when she outsold him, well fuck it, who cares right?

[ehunter577]

If they gave out awards based on who sold the most, there would be no need for an awards show because everyone would already know the winners.

[wbooker10]

They all knew who should of won ,50 cent  12million album sold, 2 number 1 hits, that year come the fuck on.

[Ohmieffinggosh711]

@wbooker10 Evanescence sold over 15 million albums and had I'm pretty sure... Bring Me To Life, Everybody's Fool, and My Immortal as singles that did really well :p Jussst sayin'

[HellsLeeWay]

@wbooker10 Evanescence - 15 million albums sold. Why do number ones mean people should win awards? Have you seen who are in the charts these days?! You call that music? Are you really saying that they should win awards?

[IzzyPeralta]

@HellsLeeWay Evanescence - clearly overrated and infamously famous by those wanting to keep the grudge of the 90's alive. People in the charts these days: Adele, Foster the People, Beyonce, and Lady Gaga. All inspirational and talented artist, that people won't listen because they limit them selves into a small category of music. Like those who didn't listen to 50 cent's grammy nominated album because it is rap. It was nominated for a reason, and not because it promoted sex and drugs.

[HellsLeeWay]

@IzzyPeralta How are they overrated? Are you saying that Lady Gaga and Adele aren't overrated, because they are? Gaga can write a good pop tune, but vocally she isnt amazing - same for Adele. She sings though her nose. I have listened to all of those artists, but find their music lacking something. They do it for the money, not for the love of the music they are making. You cannot justify the way 50 cent acted here.

[flowboiz]

What 50cent sold much more records didnt he?

[goopdirt12]

Lol at Jay-z at 2:09!

[L4Disillusion]

JEALOUS?????

[xxawsumrainbowxx]

Imma let you finish, but fallen was one of the bet records of all time. ALL TIME!

[BlueThaBrain]

12 Million records! Lmao But even though he interrupted he didn't speak, he just smiled

[BlueFlame1013]

only a black hood rat would do that

[eddietheguy12]

50 cent is a asshole for that.

[jbuck1721]

Where was Kanye West in 50 defense

[AnbuBroly17]

IDk!! but this is actually funny!!!

[thegoosmangoose]

Amy responded PERFECTLY to it. I respect her even more now :)

[SidneySage93]

@thegoosmangoose I agree, I respected her even more after seeing this.

[saintsfan0913]

50 cent shouldve won

[CLEYOMAN]

50 sang with wisin & yandel, that's enough to say he is shit

[Kingbabyx3]

I must have missed something but all I seen was 50 walk on stage and walk off...

[SidneySage93]

@Kingbabyx3 I think he spit at her and gave the two guys at the back the middle finger.. I'm not sure. It was so rude of 50 cent anyways.

[Kingbabyx3]

@SidneySage93 oh damn thats messed up. Not like it was her fault people liked them more. Low blow for 50.

[SidneySage93]

@Kingbabyx3 Ikr. He's got to accept the fact that he's not the best artist in the world and that there are other artists that are better than him. Evanescence DESERVED to win.

[D4NkQu33n420]

i fkn love amy lee..

[370z4TW]

And everybody up there has waaaaaaaaay less hits than 50 cent....And have 1/20th his money if that

[Prytex11]

The grammys dont respect Rap... Rap artists ony win grammys in Rap categories. I think almost everybody agrees Tupac was the best rapper ever, and he never won any prize to prove it...

[bubsadoozy]

@Prytex11 The Grammy always goes to the most popular artist. Rap isn't the most popular genre. It has nothing to do with respect. Who gives a shit anyways. These awards mean nothing.

[lilplayboy98]

@bubsadoozy they mean nothing to you on youtube at home sitting on your ass.

[bubsadoozy]

@lilplayboy98 You didn't even refute any of the points I made, the awards still mean nothing. They reward the artist with nothing but an ego boost. Only reply with an intelligent argument if you do. I really doubt that is going to come from a thirteen year old with an username like lilplayboy.

[lilplayboy98]

@bubsadoozy 0/10 based on your lil-playboy-username argument.

[Team971fifa]

@bubsadoozy rap has nothing to do with respect ? really i thought u rock ppl were atleast a bit small its one of the most respected genre's ever if not the best ... stop making dumb responses and get facts please don't act dumb

[Team971fifa]

@bubsadoozy hear the ppl screaming when 50 passes through obviously they like him more 

[xXMurdaMarkXx]

hahaha this cracks me up everytime

[Caermenpooh]

Wow. that's mature :-D

[babsmania85]

why still racism in 21 century??? 50 was the best new artist!

[Rellik428]

I know right? Racism!! You won't admit that Evanescence were the best new artist because they are all white?

[HellsLeeWay]

@babsmania85 Yeah, of course the Grammy's are racist...Esperanza Spalding totally didnt win Best New Artist, did she?

You may disagree with the winner, but dont bring it down to racism. The people who vote for these awards are music professionals, they know what they are doing.

[AdamPeter100]

Where are they now? Just finished touring their latest album which went to number one. And true artists like Amy don't do it for the money, they do it for the art.

[mancunianhardcore]

@AdamPeter100 you say amy. amy didn't win this, the band did. don't single members out as if they're more important.

[bigmichael03]

Where are they now,plus 50 got more money tho,so who really wins.

[Fashionistafy]

Hahaha "Thanks 50" :)

[TheDipset1233]

everybody hates that song now

[darrienmack]

Thanks 50! Lol

[TheEvolushionIsMe]

At least Amy didn't cry like Taylor Swift....thats why she's awesome, she takes no shit.

[KodieGregory]

@TheEvolushionIsMe But the thing is, Taylor is just a young girl, Amy is older and can handle more

[TheEvolushionIsMe]

@KodieGregory umm there both pretty much the same age. i think Amy is only 2 years older then her hear if that. She was 22 or 23 when she won this.
