To quickly recap the night, all you need to know is that Lady Gaga won two well-deserved awards and performed Speechless with Sir Elton John, Green Day took the award for Best Rock Album, poor Stevie Nicks looked pissed to be singing about locker room romance with 6-year old darling Taylor Swift, and the live studio audience got treated to a 3D clip from Michael Jackson’s This Is It while the rest of us settled for two Dees and a subsequent headache.

Finally, much thanks to everyone for sending in their sticker pictures! We’ve sent out hundreds of envelopes so far, so keep them coming; send a photo of where you put the stickers and tattoos to the404(at)cnet(dot)com!
