British singer JAMELIA has blasted pop star GABRIELLE after she called for the Music of Black Origin (MOBO) awards to be axed. The Dreams hitmaker believes the annual award ceremony, praising urban artists, should be axed because they "lack a soul prize and are dominated by U.S. artists." But Jamelia, 26, - who hosted Wednesday night's Mobo awards - defended the awards, branding Gabrielle's comments "sad" She says, "Just because there isn't a special category does not mean that soul artists are not being recognised. "I find it sad and remarkable that people are always looking for negatives for negative's sake, when Mobo have just pulled off one of their best shows ever."

We all know the MOBOs are beyond pointless!

I can see both their perspectives so really they are both right. However I don't want Jamelia being mean to one of the best singers ever. Gabrielle never dissapoints me with her music. Like I've said before, her last album perfection

I hope it isn't true, Gabrielle isn't one to slate other artists or anything really is she.

I really couldn't care if my favourite artists slag each other. :lol: Everyone's allowed an opinion.

 

Fact is, though, the MOBOs are an utter mess.

I can see both their perspectives so really they are both right.

 

Yeah, same here.

 

All award shows seem pointless to me -_- They fail to award the artists which actually DESERVE an award :(

 

For example at the MOBO's

 

Best Newcomer : N Dubz :unsure: -_-

 

Is it just me or do they have talent all I think of when I hear their music is how BADLY ANNOYING the guys voice is :lol:

 

And poor Mutya who deserved the award didn't get it :(

Well it's a bit silly to say the shows are pointless just because you're favourites weren't rewarded. :lol:

 

However the MOBOs are ridiculous, and they're not respected any more.
