+Ky 私は美しい LOLLL

[@g1lol]

ik ohmygod so cute

[@LittleRavenHawk]

Unless you all have seen Tony play live can shut your face. The man shreds. One of the most underrated guitarist in the scene simply because he's so quiet. His guitar makes up for what he doesn't say.

[@lilyhebert8304]

AMEN TO THIS

[@ralphpaje8112]

A.lexandra Gonzalez Lil Wayne is the best guitarist

[@paolad6422]

Tyler's Dad IM SOBBING STOP

[@breehurricane6361]

LittleRavenHawk thank you I totally agree he rocks the stage.

[@lailaalaghbari6237]

SOMEBODY SAID IT OH MY GOD tony SHREDS he’s an amazing guitarist

[@caroroleon2132]

It's the most I've heard Tony talk.And his smile it's so adorable

[@hayleybeauty3]

I love how they said Tony Turtle(:

[@gabbykitchen7145]

[@CierrasMusicalWorld]

[@playbutton9094]

🐢

[@finnleon9751]

[@hades18360]

Oh my god yes!

[@glycinx]

[@Undead_Editss]

+Gali Meow Its just omg

[@kaffe0116]

He should get the award for best smile

[@galaxylove5]

CatchHoldOfMadness agreed

[@lilyshores]

Vic got his wish

[@Mancalashawty]

I remember when this happened and I screamed sO LOUD and then cried for an hour

[@YDGnsince94]

Kiana Megan pathetic

[@stayatiny2874]

AWE MY LITTLE TONY TURTLE IS SO CUTE

[@thedhanset]

I've seen tons of comments about how other people deserve the award more than the winner and I'm just sitting here thinking, why can't you just be happy for the person who won. I personally think tony deserves it and if anybody else won, I think they deserve it too but I won't be sitting behind my screen saying how other people should have won. It's a little disrespectful, to me. Just be happy for them.

[@cyborgnoodlee]

Preach.

[@agirl22222]

***** this. thank you.

[@XxJReaperXx]

thank you man, tony wasn't my favorite guitarist out of the nominations. point is I am happy for him. He made a great return, and maybe he truly deserved this award. people are just butthurt, but they don't know shit about how to play a guitar. DONT DISRESPECT A WINNER!

[@Spawnofme]

Tony doesn't deserve it

[@kiamathurin1070]

+Ivan Calderon why doesn't he deserve it?

[@raeleemartinez5719]

Aww Tony is such a precious little turtle. That's like the most I've seen him talk in a while and he has a little lisp. These past couple of weeks must have been hard on him with the mountain bike accident and all. 💖💖 I'm glad he won 😱 he deserved it 😊💖😍

[@mariaj1595]

PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS

[@katehanson1730]

his speech is so cute he seems so nervous but so cute

[@violet583]

Oh wow I just realized I've been a fan of the band for so long and this is probably one of the first times I've heard turtle talk he sounds like an angel

[@laylakunis7881]

AWWW HE SAID TONY TURTLE AHHHH IM SCREAMING I LOVE TURTLE SO SO MUCH 😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️🐢😍

[@kaffe0116]

He should get the award for most adorable smile!

[@waitisthattonyperry8514]

You guys need to stop. Tony is an awesome guitarist and deserved that award. He doesn't do solos but he ALWAYS shreads. Just because you don't like the band doesn't mean you have to hate on the lead guitarist. He's the lead so that means that the *rythm guitarist* usually gets the solos. Before you start to talk shit about a band member *learn their position in the band*.

[@clownpilled]

This was adorable.

[@marisaprince6115]

AWH TONY TURTLE OVER COMING HIS ANXIETY

[@sharygirl9452]

JSBSBFKWN HIS LITTLE LISP OMG ❤❤❤❤ Tony is perfect and I'm glad he's doing better 🐢

[@noellethompson2888]

and when he said "that too!" when her got the guitar

[@daniramirez3275]

When alex had blue hair

[@kaffe0116]

Just the fact that he thanked the fans makes me cry :D I love him!!!

[@ahuman9113]

"Mike Fuentes: best drummer" "Jaime preciado: best bassist" "Tony Turtle: best guitarist"... You know what that means?? LISTEN TO PTV CUZ THEYRE AMAZING!!

[@niaraunderhill8556]

Tony my turtle baby ❤️

[@turtle11162000]

ok so everyone that was nominated obviously deserved the award, otherwise they wouldn't have been nominated haha (we all know that tho). so since everyone was equally deserving of it (imo), it was just a matter of popularity of the bands and how many fans would vote for them. and maybe i'm wrong, but i think ptv has the biggest fan base out of those nominated so it makes sense that tony won. tho i would've been happy with any of them winning tbh.

[@maxineramsdell8033]

To the girl who wondered why he said 'ESP Guitars' instead of 'Gibson' was because that is the brand that he uses when he plays.

[@TamzinMcGhee]

YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO ME that bit got me

[@justfries4744]

as soon as you saw his name being shown on the nomination board and all the fans screaming afterwards you knew he was going to win

[@quinnkitteh8632]

I SCREAMED AND CRIED. his little lisp.

[@jenniferflores4158]

his smile ♥_♥ its bigger than I've ever seen it

[@booomciaodiezweite3600]

2:18 I love how everyone is playing guitar and Tony's pic is just too cute... and his voice is also the cutest thing ever ❤🐢

[@candehoran4946]

I love the way he talks dear lord even more special when he actually talks

[@CatalinaVoinea]

i vote for turtle

[@sonusisawesome]

IM WATCHING PIERCE THE VEIL GET AWARDS AND ITS MAKING ME SO HAPPY

[@elizabethpacheco8944]

i love all of these bands... they're all amazing guitarists, and they are all very deserving of this award, I am very happy for Tony because he's never really recognized within his own band, but honestly it would've been a better, more driven, competition if the fandoms (mostly fangirls) were more aware and thoughtful about the other nominees, rather than just picking and choosing their favorites, but then again many things are like this, so we can't really do anything about it but be happy for the winners and give the other nominees the same respect...

[@shakdonnelly9721]

He was so nervous but he mentally prepared himself and I've never been so fucking proud

[@kanela2449]

HIS VOICE IS SO CUTE OMG I ACTUALLY FELL OFF MY CHAIR

[@noellethompson2888]

TONE! Love you so much man, you kill it, you and Vic make the guitar seem effortless even though it is so complex. Proud of Tony and his smile! Keep on keeping on Tony!

[@twentyonepanicsatthedisco3456]

HIS HUGE SMILE SAYS IT'S ALL. OMG 😣😣😢😢😍😍😍😍😍

[@bambamroxu]

TONYS VOICE IM CRYING

[@17smireya32]

This made me cry 😭 I remember when I saw this and I screamed 💓 congrats Tony you deserve it 💕💕

[@MyBrighterHero1]

Congrats, Tony! Hope to see you rocking the stage with PTV soon! :D

[@leealex5976]

[@tonyperez330]

Tony Perry is one of my favorite guitarist

[@tripasdelombriz]

MY BABY TONY

[@isabellajohnson5308]

all you people saying Tony doesn't deserve this award... just think for a minute.... if Tony didn't deserve it then he wouldn't have won right? all the "fan girls voted for him, true? well since all the "fan girls" voted for him and he won, proves the Pierce The Veil has more support than the swan dude and Jackie so. He won because their band is fucking awesome. if they were on ptvs level, the swan dude or Jackie mightve won. 💕👇👌💯

[@yepyap1917]

you obviously have no idea who will swan is

[@witchywendigo5466]

[@mynamesnotval]

[@Chloe-fo5wr]

Is no one going to talk about Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat in the beginning? No? Ok.

[@reaganmullikin3597]

okay obviously if someone else deserved the award they would've won it soo

[@munimmisbah2180]

reagan mullikin they should've won it but it's​ all about the fan votes, tony is the one who has more fans than others of course they voted for tony

[@No1WillMakeItOutAlive]

I think tony deserved to win, but your comment is wrong I must say.

[@Demonslayerbornandraised]

Ay-Ayron Balakay Tony's phenomenal.

[@idkmxgxn]

HE CALLED HIM TONY TURTLE MY HEART

[@tenebritrix]

01:20 i swear this man is my spirit animal

[@jfcpaige6604]

Aww poor turtle. I feel so bad ;-;

[@NataliaHoran-n9s]

why lol

[@tiggyhunter-gilbert868]

Frank Iero?? He should of at least been nominated

[@pleaseendme8246]

Geesus way I think MCR broke up before that tho, but Frank should've been nominated.

[@geoffwigington580]

please end me Frank has a solo act

[@pixivero]

He's adorable.

[@kimbaehyung6296]

i love how the presenter said Tony Turtle

[@mollyhazelyazzie3497]

Every time I watch this I cry a little lmao

[@user-kw2fg2pv9k]

People are saying this was a popularity contest well obviously whoever won, won because they're more popular because they're better end of story

[@angel-mx8ss]

bruh

[@hannahsuazo4727]

yay TONY U FUCKING DESERVE IT he may be quiet but hes fucking amazing at what he does

[@horin979]

APMAs, also known as 'Who has more fangirls' contest

[@jaymesnimmo9769]

That's the truest thing I've heard all year

[@catrynanaiya4345]

horin979 your profile picture makes this comment absolutely perfect thank you ilysm

[@yujielcano4462]

no,its just feminists did ruined rock n roll

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

***** ...and that's what ruins it. The awards should be given to the musician that's shows how much skill, creativity or technicality they have. Voting for these guitarists and drummers just show us which band has the biggest fan base. It's all a popularity contest, you need to understand that.

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

***** But I don't want to keep voting. The whole problem with voting is that it doesn't determine who has the most talent or skill. Alternative Press are letting kids who lack knowledge in both guitar playing and drumming determine the winner and that's what makes it shit. It's unfair on the musicians who work much harder and for the ones that play a lot more than just power chords.

[@hades18360]

I really hope to see PTV live one day. Also did the orchestra play bullet blot oof love?

[@bacon8353]

I would kill to get that Gibson guitar and then tony just takes it like "do I have to take it?"

[@normarodriguez9263]

I'm crying..... I'm so happy for my little turtle..... Father of our Baby turtles!

[@edinburghwalker5569]

will swan was also deserving of this title for sure

[@nellevw2950]

SO CUUUTE

[@shippinghazard4805]

OMG, THEY DIDNT EVEN SAY "PERRY" THEY SAID TURTLE *smiles forever*

[@EliteDisaaster]

Winston and Jake give the award, the irony that the guitarists in their bands are better than the ones nominated. good job alternative press

[@lisette4665]

that was beautiful

[@notlaylam]

The one, the only TONY TURTLE

[@tonyturtle8094]
