Viral videos win big at second YouTube Awards
And the winner for best music video: "Chocolate Rain."
Tay Zonday morphed from an unknown musician to an Internet superstar who got booked on national TV shows after his song "Chocolate Rain" -- an amateur clip of his baritone crooning -- went viral last year.
Now he's among the 12 winners of the second annual YouTube Video Awards, recognizing the top user-created videos of 2007.
YouTube users voted on six nominees for each category: music, sports, comedy, instructional, short film, inspirational, commentary, creative, politics, series, eyewitness and "adorable."
