Today's category is the slightly nebulous Act of the Year - six acts got more than one vote and we present them below: interesting to note the Poptimists heavyweights who didn't get multiple nominations.
Girls Aloud put out a Greatest Hits record.
Lily Allen MySpaced her way to stardom.
Justin Timberlake brought sexy back.
Paris Hilton was much talked about.
Aly and AJ were the salvation of teenpop.
Cassie stripped R&B down.
[Poll #899559]
Lifetime achievement and Track of the Year to follow!

Why GA could legitimately be "act of the year"
Date: 2007-01-03 11:30 am (UTC)- Sarah crashing the expensive Porsche inside 5 seconds in their E4 documentary!
- No.1 album (if that matters to you)
- Never out of the tabloids in '06 - their recognition factor went up considerably thanks to celeb BFs/spouses etc - as Kat points out, this was the first year you could identify all the girls individually

Date: 2007-01-03 11:33 am (UTC)- Programme not even on proper channel!
- The first year of their career they didn't release a proper album!
- True but Paris beats them here anyway, and so do Lallen and Justin too probably
