i do not agree with jay sean winning for best video as his video did not even make sense he has to use amercian rappers to make himself big, but imran khan videos bewfa and amplifer was much better better concept and everything else it was unique imran khan shud have won that
I Totally Agree With You Sonia, I Too Think That Imran Khan’s Amplifier And Bewafa Should Have Won This Award. Imran Khan’s Video, Bewafa Was So Much More Meaningful And So True. Imran Khan Deserved That Award … x
THIS ISNT FAIRRRRRRRRRRR!!! I agree with both of u’z..IMRAN KHAN’s bewafa video should have won instead of jay seans down..down is just honestly too cheesy hate it so much!! Oh well imran khan meri jaaaaan you’re still my number one man !!!!!! (;
jay sean’s video was much slicker than imran khan’s which looked like it was shot on a home video camcorder. Down did well in the us chart because the music was good there’s no argument about that. It’s Jay Sean’s success that is bringing our music genre to a wider audience and helping people like imran khan up so don’t insult jay sean
No Imran KHAN ALL DA WAY NO IMRAN KHAN SHOULD HAVE WON IMRAN KHAN YA STILL NUMBER 1 IMRAN KHAN ALL DA WAY IMRAN KHAN ALL DA WAY IMRAN KHAN ALL DA WAY IMRAN KHAN ALL DA WAY IMRAN KHAN ALL DA WAY IMRAN KHAN ALL DA WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
