Much like the colorful, frenetic, costumed masses that take over West Hollywood, California, on Halloween, MTV’s second annual O Music Awards were so full of creativity, cutting-edge artistry and just plain crazy spirit, it was a perfect fit to be broadcast live from the largest street party in the world.

Thanks to killer live performances by Mac Miller, the Band Perry (live from Phoenix), the Alabama Shakes (live from Austin), traffic-stopping headliner Robyn, and extra-special appearances by Kelly Clarkson, Tyler, the Creator, Demi Lovato, Travie McCoy, John Cho and Kal Penn, the action-packed show completely delivered on its “Offbeat, outrageous, online” tagline and then some. Not only that, but the O Music Award dance marathon officially broke the Guinness World Record for the Longest Team Dance Marathon.

Oh yeah, and we handed out some really cool awards to very deserving and grateful artists, several of whom proved to be upsets in their respective categories (for example, the Aliens bested the Beliebers, Taylor Nation and</i the Little Monsters).
