Selena Gomez emerged onstage amidst low lights and fog, looking ethereal and slightly 更多 grown-up. Although it wasn't a stadium-rocking performance like Lady Gaga 或者 Katy Perry, Gomez powered through her pop song with a sense of earnestness and commitment. She didn't even miss a beat when her earpiece appeared to fall out mid-song.

Gomez and her band were presented with the 最喜爱的 Breakout Artist award, beating out B.o.B, Ke$ha, Bruno Mars and, curiously enough, Justin Bieber. Gomez was noticeably moved 由 the recognition. "Thank 你 so much," she said. "If 你 let me, I would do this forever."

The teen 皇后乐队 told 音乐电视 News earlier this 年 that her album was partly inspired 由 her fans.

"I mean, even down from putting the track listing and numbering it, I wanted to make sure I envisioned [fans] putting it in their car 或者 putting it on their iPod and how I wanted them to listen to the record," she explained of the process. "I wanted to make sure it made people feel good, but I also dedicated a couple songs to my fans, because there were moments onstage that I wish I could give to them, because they mean so much to me."
