David Guetta won for "Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical" for remixing.....himself?? Since when did doing a different version of your own song become a remix? The original was awesome and better than the "remix" any way.

Lady Gaga was the big dance music winner, winning for "Best Electronic/Dance Album" and "Best Dance Recording" for her hit "Poker Face". At least we have a real pop music artist who actually sings live, writes their own songs, and brings synthesizers to the mainstream. Meanwhile, Depeche Mode lost "Best Alternative Album" and "Best Short Form Music Video." MGMT lost their nominations as well.
