VFTW Radio 6/16/10 has been treansformed into the ultraglamorous Whatevia Awards ceremony! Listen in as Dave, Deb, Sean, and Slack give out awards for the best VFTW moments of the year. Tim Urban, Haeley Vaughn, Paige Miles, Siobhan Magnus, and more wait with baited breath to see who wins. Also, we talk about Eminem's lame diss of David Cook, Brenna Gethers's new music, Amanda Overmyer's street team, and the Idol band suing the show. All of that in one hour? We're miracle workers.

Every year Vote for the Worst hosts the Whatevia Awards, where we honor the moments of American Idol that made us cheer and made the average viewers cry. Leading the pack with an impressive 6 nominations is loveably clueless beefcake Tim Urban, followed by the delightful Haeley Vaughn at 4 nominations.

The winners will be announced live on VFTW Radio's Live Whatevia Awards broadcast on June 16, 2010. It's the only awards show of the season where the word "fuck" is used more than the word "thank."

12. Favorite Video: There Are No Standards
13. Favorite Troll Post: aperilla12: I have a baby. But you're right, never been fucked.
14. Favorite Piece of Hate Mail: Hey guys. I am 13 years old which is way older than you
all are I'm sure because you're all so immature! As you can already
tell, I am a very good insulter so I suggest leaving now before you get
hurt and ashamed by my words. I can't help it if you don't take this
warning seriously. So scadaddle while you can. I take extra course
history and other classes and always get straight As, when I bet you
guys haven't even gotten higher than a D ever! Last warning if you
don't like being insulted. You guys are soooo creative! Calling
Archuleta "Gaspy" was so clever! Gaspy sounds good, considering it has
no resemblence to Archuleta whatsoever. You guys need some new,
CREATIVE nicknames for the idols this season. That is called sarcasm in
case you guys are incapable of comprehending. Since you called
Archuleta a name, I figure it's appropriate under these specific
circumstances to call you guys a name. Therefore, by the power of
myself and my well-run club against this site and you guys, we now
sentence you to the name of "F*ckboobs". That's right, we will spread
the word and pretty soon, everybody will be saying F*ckboobs instead of
Vote for the Worst! Aren't you happy? I am! And since it is under the
First Amendment which states we all have freedom of speech, nothing is
stopping me from continuing my f*ckboob wrath on you f*ckboobs. The
world will be so f*ckboobed with your f*ckboobedness that even Ryan
Seacrest will be bleeped out when discussing you f*ckboobs! So even
though this letter may be a few months late from Season 7, I feet it's
better late than never. So enjoy being called f*ckboobs forever and
ever. You should change your name now to f*ckboobs because you all
f*ckboob yourself f*ckboobedly to your own f*ckboobed f*ckboobs.
F*CKBOOBS.

16. Favorite Main Page VFTW Post: Adam Lambert Likes to Take Pictures of Himself Making Out With Some Dude
By WHATEVIA SANTIAGO, AP Awards Show Correpondent – Wed Jun 16, 11:54 pm ET
Tim Urban may not like Vote for the Worst, but the site proved they loved him tonight at the 2010 Whatevia Awards. Urban swept the awards, winning the 3 major categories: VFTW Moment of the Year, Favorite VFTW Contestant, and Favorite VFTW Performance by a Lead Karaoke Singer. The night's other big winner, Adam Lambert, cleaned up in the alumni categories by winning Favorite American Idol Alumni Moment of the Year and Favorite American Idol Alumni Train Wreck Song Release for his American Music Awards performance and his single "For Your Entertainment" respectively.
When asked what this moment meant to him, Urban said, "I'm not excited I was nominated for any awards. It's not anything anybody should be proud of. I have no comment." After hearing Urban's acceptance speech, Vote for the Worst site founder Dave Della Terza then gave Urban another award just for the heck of it. Lambert was too busy taking a cheese grater to his face to offer a quote.
Other winners included cute-as-a-button Idol contestant Haeley Vaughn's performance of "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" in the Favorite VFTW Performance by a Supporting Karaoke Singer category, Katy Perry's mocking of Kara DioGuardi in the Favorite Direction by a Karaoke Judge or Mentor category, and Siobhan Magnus's butterfly outfit in the Favorite Awful Wardrobe Choice by a Karaoke Singer category.
Lee DeWyze also pulled off his first and likely only award win in the Favorite VFTW Performance by a Karaoke Group or Duo with his finale medley with the band Chicago.
A surprise award called the Lifetime Achievement Award of Suck was given to Constantine Maroulis for his efforts at making a complete fool of himself everywhere he goes. In honor of being the first recipient of the award, Vote for the Worst's founders are renaming the award the Constantine Maroulis Lifetime Achivement Award of Suck. Maroulis celebrated by giving gonorrhea to an 18 year old female fan.
Other shocking wins included Hanson's Danny Gokey babies chop and Mrs. Cookie's hate mail letter. It is also rumored that Crystal Bowersox actually bathed and washed her hair to attend the awards ceremony, hoping to win for her VTW shoutout. She was happy for Urban though, saying, "Hey at least he doesn't have to sign this fucking 19 Entertainment contract. He's just lucky all around, isn't he?"
The Whatevia Awards take place every year on the Vote for the Worst website to honor and award the entertaining moments that the site's viewers loved but America hated. Magnus summed up the importance of winning her award best by saying, "Blarghalarrrzzzzz!!!!!!"
