“Oh my goodness, I'm completely flattered. That is amazing! Thank you so much for telling me. That's awesome! I grew up listening to MTV. It's just such an iconic thing to be able to participate in. To even be presented with an award is just so flattering and I'm honoured. I'm excited. You never get used to being nominated!" Contactmusic quoted her as saying.
