COPENHAGEN, Denmark � Rap star Kanye West was named Best Hip Hop artist but still came off as a sore loser at the MTV Europe Music Awards.
Kanye apparently was so disappointed at not winning for Best Video that he crashed the stage Thursday in Copenhagen when the award was being presented to Justice and Simian for "We Are Your Friends.''
In a tirade riddled with expletives, Kanye said he should have won the prize for his video "Touch The Sky," because it "cost a million dollars, Pamela Anderson was in it. I was jumping across canyons.''
"If I don't win, the awards show loses credibility," Kanye said.
The rapper grabbed the Best Hip Hop award earlier in the night in a star-studded event hosted by Justin Timberlake in the Danish capital.
Timberlake won the Best Pop and Best Male awards while the Red Hot Chili Peppers won Best Album. Christina Aguilera was named Best Female artist at the annual awards show broadcast live in 17 countries.
British band Muse won the Best Alternative category, and Depeche Mode earned the Best Group award.
"Wow, guys, this is totally unexpected," said Rihanna as she received the Best R&B award. In September, the 18-year-old music star won the same category in the Music of Black Origin award in London.
The show was split between two venues: a convention hall on the city outskirts where Timberlake was in charge and an outdoor stage on Copenhagen's main square where R&B songstress Kelis introduced the artists.
Rapper Snoop Dogg, Australian band Jets and The Killers of Denmark had crowds jumping up and down in temperatures just above freezing at the outdoor venue.
The Red Hot Chili Peppers were nominated in four categories, but only won one for the album "Stadium Arcadium.''
Best song went to Gnarls Barkley for "Crazy.''
British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen entertained the audience with his English-mangling character Borat Sagdiyev, a Kazakh TV journalist, and poked fun at Madonna who is trying to adopt an African child.
"My only concern is that this singing transvestite will not be such a good father," Borat said in a mock video link from Kazakhstan.
Other award presenters included R&B singer Cassie, Daniel Craig � the sixth actor to play agent James Bond � Fat Joe, "Jackass'' star Johnny Knoxville and the Sugababes.
MTV's European awards are held in a different city every year. The winners are selected by fans across Europe.

its doesn't kanye..... doesn't.
or does not.
i fucking hate that guy.
Sure Kanye was right what he said about New Orleans(he doesn't deserve the noble peace prize, he just happened to be the first one with the oppurtunity to do it) but this guy thought he was an important figure in the entertainment industry before his first track was even on radio. I'm sure in his head that everything that isn't put on a silver platter and red carpet for him is not up to standard and loses credility.
I find it funny when the people on Muchmusic talk about how rappers/urban musicians as role models and leaders in society when they mention 2 or 3 things that would help the community but is really just common sense. It's quite funny.

MTV europe is a joke anyways. Look at the people winning and nominated. The exact same people as here. Yet if you look at european charts and ask a european they all listen to that and 100 times more. Where are the local artists? There are many in europe.
All mtv europe is is an outlet to push american hedgemony onto europe and it has little respect for what is actually going on in europe.
What a loser, I cant believe he let his ego run himself amuck there, so silly. Like this is going to help his career?

i think mtv europe is actually pushing that supply onto it. Look at euro charts and compare it to mtv. hardly any resemblance at all.
Kanye West is a f**kin' NERD!
Never liked him from start, he's a NERD trying to be BODMON. Like one of those gifty NERDS I use to beat up in public school. All high and might for no reason.
When you ask ppl about hip hop, they mention the legends or ppl who have skillz. You mention Kanye West ... "WHO ? Oh that loser who said something about Bush on TV"
Im suprised the guys who won didn't slap him upside the head.
I LOVED waterworld! lol
