Simple Plan Hijack Poll

It looks like lots of Simple Plan fans were really, really bored over the holidays.

Before we closed our office, we told you that David Usher's Wake Up And Say Goodbye was running away with the vote for best Canadian album in our 14th annual year-end readers' poll. It looks like legions of Simple Plan fans discovered that news and took action, because the Montreal group's self-titled album has overtaken Usher and is in the lead with nearly 58,000 votes.

Simple Plan's "Save You" is in the lead for best song with more than 5,000 votes, while Fall Out Boy's "I Don't Care" and Panic At The Disco's "Nine In The Afternoon" are duking it out for second place. The "Save You" clip is also at the top of the best video category.

More people now think Simple Plan's Pierre Bouvier is Canada's sexiest man, since he has more than 28,000 votes in that category. His closest competitor is Jacob Hoggard, the frontman of Chart's 2008 artist of the year, Hedley. He has about 14,000 votes. (Check out a video of the band's cover photo shoot here.) Simple Plan are also ridiculously far ahead of anyone else in the best haircut category, with bassist David Desrosiers firmly in the lead.

Believe it or not, there are a few categories in which Simple Plan aren't in the lead. Scarlett Johansson's Anywhere I Lay My Head no longer has the lead in the best international album category, which now looks to be an emo battle between Fall Out Boy and Panic At The Disco. Fall Out Boy's Folie A Deux is in the lead with about 4,000 votes, but PATD aren't far behind with just over 3,200 votes.

Mullets look to be popular again, since Tegan And Sara are running away with top place in the sexiest Canadian woman category. They've got almost 7,000 votes, while their closet competitor, Serena Ryder, has just over 1,000. Feist's name has been clicked more than 150 times, which puts her in third place.

A majority of you think Croc shoes are this year's stupidest trend and, for some reason, you've also so far deemed Panic At The Disco dropping their exclamation mark to be the best and worst thing to happen in music in 2008.

You can vote in the poll until Friday at 5 p.m.
