He certainly did. believe it or not, he even sold 40 million records in his career.
Don't know why you call him a "jerk", but that says a lot.
He's nominated due to another succesful Rickrolling, though. And if you read one of the latest interviews with him, you'll see he knows what this was all about...
From a Dutch article:
U2, the most innovative podium band of the western world, comes to watch his special effects.
"I don't have the ego of a very big artiest. And U2 is coming, that's an enormous compliment"
Originally posted by Remy:U2 is visiting the concert of Marco Borsato tonight, here in the Netherlands. Arnhem, Gelredome. They are watching his "special effects". Marco Borsato, the most popular Dutch singer, gives 8 concerts in a row here, and his shows are really big and innovative. Last shows a crew of U2 also attended the show, but this time U2 itself will be attending his show. Too bad they can't understand what Marco's singing

We shouldn't be surprised if U2 copies some things from this show for their upcoming tour. Video from his last concerts two years ago (where crew from U2 was attending):

Don't know, the concert is happening tonight. This was happening two years ago.
My mom will be there, I will ask what it was like
