The
MOBO awards have been criticized for favoring U.S. artists, which didn't stop American star
Beyonce from winning three Wednesday — for best international female, best song and best video for "Deja Vu," featuring Jay-Z. However, Beyonce was a no show to the awards. Which means she missed out on the
fried chicken and
Krispy Kreme Donuts served! You can read more about that
HERE.
Other American winners were the
Black Eyed Peas for best group, while the best international male award went to
Jay-Z.
