Spears dominates MTV awards show


Singer Britney Spears has swept the board at the MTV Video Music Awards show in Los Angeles, collecting three prizes for her track Piece of Me.

The 26-year-old, whose performance at last year's ceremony was widely panned, thanked "God first and foremost for just blessing me like this".

The other winners at the show in Hollywood included the Pussycat Dolls, Linkin Park, Lil Wayne and Chris Brown.

And there were performances from Kanye West, Rihanna and Christina Aguilera.

West left the ceremony - hosted by British comic Russell Brand - empty-handed.

He fell out with MTV after last year's show when he failed to win any prizes and had vowed never to perform at the awards again.

And in 2006 he publicly complained about not winning best video at the MTV Europe awards.

Spears has suffered a year of health problems and legal difficulties which saw her lose custody of her children, while her father James has taken legal control of her affairs.

Her video for Piece of Me won the main prize - video of the year.

It beat Chris Brown's Forever, Burnin' Up by the Jonas Brothers, When I Grow Up by the Pussycat Dolls and the Ting Tings' Shut Up and Let Me Go to the coveted prize.

The same promo also earned Spears the awards for best video by a female artist and top pop video.

She had been nominated for MTV video awards 16 times before but had never won.

"Wow, thank you, I'm in shock right now," she said as she collected her third and final trophy.

"I was not expecting this. This is such an honor to have this award right now. I want to thank my fans. This is dedicated to you."
