Unpredictable Juno Awards

Feist - The Wiltern - November 12, 2011This year’s Juno Awards ceremony was unpredictable on Sunday night.

According to the Canadian Press, Toronto-based Indie singer Feist was in disbelief as she climbed up the stage to receive her award for “Artist of the year”.

Saskatoon rock band The Sheepdogs went home with 3 awards, amazing for a band that was still unknown last year.

Only seven awards were handed out Sunday night.

The other statuettes were awarded at a dinner gala on Saturday.

Of the seven awards given out, three went to Feist and one to Dragonette and Paris house DJ Martin Solveig.

Some popular Canadian artists like DeadMau5 and Nickelback went home empty handed despite numerous nominations.

Justin Bieber wasn’t present but won the Fan choice award for the second year in a row.

Buble, Drake, and Avril Lavigne were also missing.

Eighty-one year-old William Shatner did his best to host the show and make it interesting.

The show featured performances by City and Color, Hedley, Simple Plan and DeadMau5.
