MTV Europe Music Awards
The MTV Europe Music Awards have been rickrolled when 4chan, as well as several other forums (I believe ultimate guitar forum actually started it), voted to have Rick Astley nominated. He accepted the nomination and may quite possibly win, which would be probably the largest rickroll ever.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.106.103.47 (talk • contribs) 01:53, 4 October 2008
On the event of Rick Astley getting rick-rolled on Reddit
It's finally happened. Reddit link
Here's the text I propose to insert under "Effects on Astley and reaction":
""""""
In June 2020, Rick Astley posted a picture of himself taken in 1989 on tour in Las Vegas on Reddit. A user responded with a possible fabricated story about meeting Rick Astley back-stage during their childhood with a link to the song. Rick responded with the 'applause' emoji presumably having clicked on the link and being Rickrolled.
""""""
