Link said resignedly.
"Don't make yourself sound so aggrieved; no matter who you were trying to please with your previous efforts to win, the fact that you took advantage of me when I was unconscious... that... that you did that to me, resulting in my pregnancy, clearly indicates you're the only one happy about it."
Taylor spoke in a suppressed voice.
"The child should be happy too. After they're born, they'll surely giggle nonstop."
"Shut up! Don't use the child to make your point."
Taylor caressed her belly as she spoke.
While the two of them were talking, a camera in the audience remained fixed on them, motionless.
Link shook his head.
Onstage, Eminem and Rihanna, with her red hair, performed their hit song "Love the Way You Lie"; Taylor had said she liked the song and that all the scumbags should listen to it.
Link did not respond.
After the Best Male Artist award, the show continued with awards for Best Rock Video, Best Group, Best Dance Video, and Best Pop Video.
