The eighties crooner Rick Astley is a surprise inclusion in this year' 'Best Ever Act' at the MTV Europe Awards, seeing him pitted against the like of U2, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Green Day and Tokio Hotel.

The populairty of the "rick-rolling" trend has been undeniable, and normally, I'd say he probably wouldn't stand a chance, but as the winner will be chosen 'by fans online' I'd say he might just pull it off.

They need to say he's speaking to the award ceremony via a video conference and then "rick-roll" the whole of the audience, before passing the award to U2..
