Cash's Hurt Video Nominated for Several VMA's

As more and more praise comes towards Johnny Cash's carreer, he's being nominated for more and more awards. This time, the video for his cover of Nine Inch Nails' Hurt, has been nominated for a few MTV Video Music Awards.

Cash is nominated for Best Video, Best Male Video, Best Male Over The Age of Seventy Video, Best Art Direction in a Video, Best Editing in a Video, and Best Cinemetography in a Video. Word on the street has it that Cash will not be winning MTV's "Video of the Year" award because MTV is "full of it". That's just a rumour though.

The video is online at director Mark Romanek's webiste: markromanek.com
