POP QUEENS LOCK LIPS - Madonna, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera kiss at the MTV Awards.

Madonna and Britney Spears have stunned pop fans with a sizzling snog at the MTV Video Music Awards.

The fortysomething pop queen puckered up and planted a passionate kiss on Britney's lips before giving Christina Aguilera some lip service of her own as she sang her single Hollywood.

Former Mouseketeer mates Britney and Christina had opened the show with a gyrating rendition of Madonna's hit Like a Virgin. The Material Girl then joined them on stage for a saucy show.

Down to business

And so another year of MTV's annual celebration of music videos was ushered in in true rock star fashion.

Rapper Missy Elliott, teen heart throb Justin Timberlake, singer Beyonce Knowles and rapper 50 Cent were the night's big winners.

Elliott took the evening's top honour, Best Video of the Year, and also won Best Hip-Hop Video for her song Work It.

Knowles won Best Female Video, Best R&B Video and Best Choreography for Crazy in Love while rapper 50 Cent won for Best Rap Video and Best New Artist for In Da Club.

Timberlake won Best Pop Video, Best Dance Video and Best Male Video - a category in which he beat Johnny Cash, 71, a rock and roll legend old enough to be his grandfather.

Cash, who was not at the Radio City Music Hall ceremony due to illness, was nominated for six awards but only won Best Cinematography for Hurt.

Brit Winners

British bands Coldplay and Radiohead were recognised with four awards.

Coldplay, who won Best Group Video, Best Direction in a Video and Breakthrough Video for The Scientist, also performed live in what was described as a highlight in the star line-up.

Radiohead won the award for Best Art Direction in a Video for There There.

Other winners at the ceremony included punk band Linkin Park for Best Rock Video, rockers Good Charlotte for the Viewers' Choice award and rapper Eminem for Best Video from a Film.

British pop band Duran Duran, which began making videos even before MTV started broadcasts 20 years ago, won a Lifetime Achievement Award.

The awards were voted on by a pool of music industry executives, producers and journalists.

I think that Madonna thinks that everyone else thinks that she is as young as Britney and Cristina Agusluta.

If you feel Madonna does not deserve to be an ad pitchwoman for The Gap, contact them at custserv@gap.com or 800-gap-style

Cash, who was not at the Radio City Music Hall ceremony due to illness,

Poor guy woulda been sicker if he'd been there and seen that little bit.

Guess Brit and Chris are queer for OLDER women, huh?

Madonna has to close to 50. Maybe older.

50 cent is a musical genius. He is a titan of art and culture. 200 years from now, people will say that all 21st century music was influenced by this man. I will also say ... no, I can't go on. I'm laughing too hard to type. What a 1 minute wonder.

Britney apparently is laying the seeds of her upcoming "movie" career. How many misguided young women will follow her misguided lead?

Oh boy, I can't think of better goal than playing kissy face between three sleazeballs who have nothing better to do.

I want to know what happens when the shock value wears off. Where do they go next? It can't be down; because they have already hit rock bottom.

So now Madonna, a 45 year old woman is making out with Brittney, a 21year old and Cristina a 22 year old.

Classy.
