Ting Tings Beat Coldplay And Leona Lewis To MTV Video Music Award

The Ting Tings held off competition from Coldplay and Leona Lewis to take home Best UK Video at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday (September 7th).

The band, who were also nominated against Duffy and Estelle, won the award for their single 'Shut Up And Let Me Go'.

But their accolade was overshadowed by the domination of Britney Spears at the ceremony in Los Angeles.

As previously reported, Spears took who three video awards for her song 'Pieces Of Me'.

She told the crowd in Los Angeles that she would like to thank "God first and foremost for just blessing me like this".

Spears, who had never won a VMA before, also paid tribute to her children during her acceptance speeches.
