Lady Sovereign @ The 2006 mtvU Awards, Roseland Ballroom, NYC | pics
DOWNLOAD: Lady Sovereign - Hoodie (Spank Rock remix) (MP3)

I was lucky enough to accidentally be standing next to Lady Sovereign for about ten minutes before she took the stage to introduce Gym Class Heroes. It was while they were announcing that she lost the "Most Original Artist" award to Gnarls Barkley, but I don't think she noticed.
My favorite performance of the night was just listening to her talk to everyone around us. Her "backstage" banter included a diss of Imogen Heap (who was also nominated in her category), and a lot of threats to the guy whose shoulders she was sitting/climbing on. On stage she refused to read from the teleprompter and claimed to be drunk.







This all happened at the 2006 mtvU Awards @ Roseland Ballroom in NYC on Wednesday October 25th.
Jared Leto was there beating people up.
Lady Sov was also seen posing with Ghostface.
Last time I randomly ran into her was at SXSW.
With her new video recently reaching #1 on TRL, her MTV reach is already way beyond MTV's mtvU.
See her on tour.

Anyone who can diss Imogen Heap is a fucking idiot or clinically deaf.
End of story.
