Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion-Chapter 452 - 376: The Final Grand Prize_3

Link said resignedly.

"Don't make yourself sound so aggrieved; no matter who you were trying to please with your previous efforts to win, the fact that you took advantage of me when I was unconscious... that... that you did that to me, resulting in my pregnancy, clearly indicates you're the only one happy about it."

Taylor spoke in a suppressed voice.

"The child should be happy too. After they're born, they'll surely giggle nonstop."

"Shut up! Don't use the child to make your point."

Taylor caressed her belly as she spoke.

While the two of them were talking, a camera in the audience remained fixed on them, motionless.

Link shook his head.

Onstage, Eminem and Rihanna, with her red hair, performed their hit song "Love the Way You Lie"; Taylor had said she liked the song and that all the scumbags should listen to it.

Link did not respond.

After the Best Male Artist award, the show continued with awards for Best Rock Video, Best Group, Best Dance Video, and Best Pop Video.

Link received four nominations but no awards, while Lady Gaga received four nominations and won two.

Among these four nominations, the rock song "Legends Never Die" MV and the pop song "Girls Like You" MV had high public expectations before the awards show, but the MTV jury committee still didn't give it to him.

By this time, those close to him looked at him with a mix of helplessness and sympathy, while those who saw him as an enemy jeered.

"Are you happy to see me not winning any awards?"

"Yes, what about it?"

"How about a smile for me to see?"

"..."

Of course, Taylor did not smile and even gave him a disdainful look.

"Alright, no more jokes. I plan to stop attending any music award ceremonies starting from the second half of next year. Will that make you any happier?"

"Are you serious?"

Taylor asked, furrowing her brows.

"Yes, when that time comes, you can go to the award ceremonies, and I'll stay home with the child, watching you on TV."

"Don't even think about it. I won't let you take care of the child."

Taylor huffed and, still caressing her abdomen, leaned toward Selena.

The awards ceremony was about to end, and last year's MTV awards big winner Beyonce took the stage to present the final award for 'Video of the Year'.

Nominated for the award were five music videos: Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance", Florence + The Machine's "Dog Days Are Over", Thirty Seconds to Mars' "Kings and Queens", BoB's "Airplanes", and Link's "Legends Never Die".

"The winner of Video of the Year is..."

Beyonce glanced at the nominee card and said with a sultry smile, "The scumbag, oh, sorry, Mr. Link Baker's "Legends Never Die""

The audience was caught off guard for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Kanye West and others slapped their thighs, whistled, and laughed heartily, thinking Beyonce's public calling out of Link as a scumbag was really cool; she didn't give Link any face at all.

Link shook his head, hugged Taylor, Selena, and Lana Del Rey, and made his way through the crowd to the stage to receive the award.

After getting on stage, Beyonce hugged him in public before handing over the trophy to him.

Link, holding the shiny spaceman trophy, approached the microphone. Before he even began to speak, a wave of applause and cheers erupted from the audience, with many acquaintances standing to clap.

Link smiled slightly, holding up the trophy and bowed in thanks to everyone.

"Thank you!"

As the applause subsided, Link said into the microphone, "Seeing so many friends clapping, I feel like I'm far from being deserted by everyone."

The audience laughed, knowing he was poking fun at himself for the recent "Hollywood Reporter" comment that he had been deserted by everyone.

"Over the past year, I've been through a lot. I had an enviable relationship, but I didn't cherish it and carelessly lost her. I had many honors and was a very upstanding idol, but because of my negligence, I gradually became what Beyonce calls a 'scumbag'. I originally predicted I would win 11 trophies at this MTV Awards, and now I'm left with just one... Miss Gaga, is it because you are just too amazing?"

Link looked towards Lady Gaga in the audience as he asked.

Lady Gaga covered her mouth, laughing and shaking her head repeatedly.

The audience couldn't help but chuckle. At first, everyone thought he was confessing and it sounded rather sad, but then he turned the topic to winning trophies, saying he predicted winning 11 of them. Clearly, he was joking.

"Thank you! I'm grateful to the MTV judges for bestowing this important award on me. Earlier, down there, Taylor and Selena said that the judges were right not to award me, because they are good people, with high moral character, who wouldn't give an award to someone mired in negative news.

Now that you've given me this award, it's not just an acknowledgement that "legends never die" but also an appreciation of my character, suggesting that I am a good man, right? Thank you, I think so too."

Ha ha ha!

The audience laughed out loud, and some teased him about his thick skin.

"I also want to thank Graham, David Kahn, Ali, Mars, and all the staff at Link Music Studios. When we received the invitation from the Super Bowl organizers, it was on the eve of Christmas, and there was just over a month before the Super Bowl started. In order to finish the song early, we all spent New Year's in the studio. This trophy belongs to you too.

Thank you to all my fans who support me, and to my family and friends. It's your unwavering support that has made me better. I will continue to work hard to write more good songs, legends never die!"

Link raised the trophy as he spoke.

Applause exploded from the audience once more, with many standing up to applaud and cheer.

"Weird! Isn't Link supposed to be a scumbag? Why do so many people like him?"

Actor Jesse Eisenberg looked around in surprise at the seats.

"Of course, it's because he's handsome, talented, and has a net worth of over a billion. With a guy like that, what woman wouldn't be interested?"

Actor Andrew Garfield said enviously.

"You're right. If you're an Olympic champion, there will be ten women who like you; if you're a world boxing champion, a hundred girls will want to marry you; if you're a world superstar, at least a thousand women would want to have children for you; and if you're twenty-one with a net worth over a billion, at least ten thousand women would swoon over you. Link has it all."

Actor Chris Pine admired.

"He really is quite an incredible guy."

Not long after stepping down, Link took the stage again with his performance team, passionately singing "legends never die," taking the atmosphere of the venue to a climax.

Legends never die

Legends never fade away

When the world is calling you

When the world calls out to you

Can you hear them screaming out your name

Can you hear them calling out your name

Legends never die!!
