by: Alyssa Rashbaum

right The R&B diva, who led the pack with four nominations, won just one for Favorite Female Artist: Soul/Rythym & Blues. Destiny's Child and the Black Eyed Peas each won two awards, though the Peas were not present to receive theirs and only Kelly Rowland picked up statues for her missing group-mates, according to The Associated Press.

I miss my girls," Rowland said, accepting the award for Favorite Band, Duo or Group: Soul/Rhythm & Blues Award. The girls also won for Favorite Album: Soul/Rhythm & Blues for Destiny Fulfilled.

Artists including Eminem (Favorite Male Artists: Rap/Hip Hop), 50 Cent (Favorite Album: Rap/Hip Hop for The Massacre) and R. Kelly (Favorite Male Artist: Soul/Rhythm & Blues) were also absent from the show.

Peformers included Pharrell and Gwen Stefani, who together performed "Can I Have it Like That," right before Stefani was honored for Favorite Female Artist: Pop/Rock. Rushing back on stage from the performance, Stefani asked "What did I win? I guess whatever I won, I just want to say thank you to the fans, especially all my girls."
