well actually he got big when the public heard his mixtape (nostalgia, ultra) that he released without his label's knowledge or permission, his label had put him on the shelf for several years and he was writing for other people, he decided enough was enough
im hoping he sings 'bad religion' or 'pyramids', my favs off the album ![]() ![]() Yeah I hope he does bad religion too, I really love that song. |

There is a new category called 'Most Share-Worthy Video'...
http://www.mtv.com/ontv/vma/2012/mos...-worthy-video/ Absolutely ridiculous. The whole category has turned into a teen sensation battle (One Direction vs. Bieber), 12-year old girls have been taking over Twitter for a week and they aren't slowing down (45 million tweets!) and now Bieber is tweeting half naked pictures of himself to get his fans to vote for his video! Whole another level of desperation... |

You love Nas too? 'Life Is Good' is one of the best albums of the year imo, but unfortunately I don't think he will perform at the VMA's.
There is not much hip hop included this year in general, let alone real rap. ![]() I agree with you that the performers they've announced so far are good, but not amazing. That's why I really wanted CB to perform and spice things up. I don't think the line-up as it is can carry a 3-hour show tbh, even though I love some of them. They've already announced 7 performers and judging by the previous years, there are only 2 or 3 performers left to be revealed. I hope they saved the best for last ![]() |

I really can't at people thinking 'Starships' should win an award. The video is cheap crap and it's shocking it got a nomination in the first place. Glad Lana Del Rey got a nom. Really hope 'We Found Love' wins some awards, epic video.

Yes i think Nas is ace but i didn't expect him to perform but thought there but because Jay Z and Kanye have been at some award shows recently and considering Nas is a rap legend and has become a bit more mainstream this year there may have been a small chance.
I'm hoping he books the AMA's or the Grammy's though, which are based on credibility and album sales rather than radio hits and retweets I'd love to see him perform in award shows and maybe even win an overdue Grammy this year...

. I agree WFL deserves an award. Also hoping for awards for Chris Brown for best male and Coldplay - Paradise for best rock video.

Yes I hope Chris brown wins one as well. The male category though is very disappointing if I'm honest. Coldplay deserves it but knowing MTV they probably won't get it.
Quote:
Oh I hope your right. I hope Katy Perry doesn't win Best Female but since she's like the VMA's new golden girl (since they've ditched Brit) she'll no doubt get something.

The lack of Florence and the Machine in there knocks me sick.

Chris Brown is the only one in the Best Male video category that deserves an award. But I'm ok with everyone BUT Bieber winning the award. The boy is reaching an all time low on Twitter begging his fans to vote for him...
Quote:
Well, the Female Video category is pretty much Katy vs. Rihanna. I think Rihanna may win 'Video Of The Year' and Katy might win 'Female video', but since she isn't going to perform most probably, I wouldn't rule out Rihanna winning both!

I know, it's becoming embarrassing. He's just embarrassing altogether, his music is bad but no doubt if someone else wins they'll be subjected to a load of twitter abuse by his 'beleibers' *gagged as I wrote that.

Which is exactly why Chris Brown winning would be perfect! Team Breezy may not be as many as the Beliebers, but they sure know how to pull off a Twitter war. Beliebers and Team Breezy will be sending death threats to each other for days!

It's likely that Alicia Keys will perform the remix of her single at the VMA's alongside with Nicki Minaj. Until yesterday, it was 99% confirmed that she would perform the blue light version alone, but the remix was released before the solo version and then Nicki Minaj did a video with MTV talking about how excited she was about Alicia Keys' performance, so it's heavily speculated that they'll perform together on Thursday.

When I first heard about this new category, I thought it was going to be pretty harmless. I thought that nobody would care about it tbh! I was so wrong!

Whole another level of desperation... Link (main): http://uk.mtvema.com/megafan Link (full rank): http://uk.mtvema.com/biggest-fans MTV Europe Music Awards also has something similar called "Biggest Fans" category, with a lucky winner winning a trip to the EMAs in Frankfurt. Not surprisingly, Lady Gaga is leading at the moment. Bieber is 4th and 1D is 5th. |

![]() Apparently Rihanna will be performing with a surprise guest as well. I really, really hope it's not CB but I'm guessing it'll just be Jay Z/Drake/Calvin Harris. |

I definitely don't want a rapper or Calvin Harris though, as that would be too predictable. The XX and Katy Perry are mentioned a lot everytime the "surprise guest" rumours comes up at some forum though. Maybe 'DOL' is the next single or that Katy/ Rihanna duet finally materialized. Who knows?

Well, the surprise guest is just a rumour for now, but it could be true. Chris Brown's rep confirmed that Chris won't be performing at the VMA's, but didn't Da Internz (the producers of 'Birthday Cake') state that Chris Brown was not the surprise feature to throw people off? So, I wouldn't rule him out just yet...

EDIT: She also liked this pic on instagram http://web.stagram.com/p/269584714626052103_44542635 so signs pointing to it! |

I'd love Rihanna to be the opening performer!

Who knows? ![]() .He wont even be at the awards show anyway .I hope he wins the 2 awards for which he is nominated though if not then he should at least win best male choreo(and its amazing that he co-directed it ). Because that TUTM is imo the best male video in that category:the storyline, the visuals, not to forget the incredible choreography, I just get dizzy watching it .I really hope one of the girls (Alicia, Pink, Taylor...)upstage Rihanna at the Vma's ![]() .

MTV buzzworthy posted some behind the scenes pictures. It looks like it's going to be a great show!
http://buzzworthy.mtv.com//wp-conten...9/DSC_0056.jpg http://buzzworthy.mtv.com//wp-conten..._0096-crop.jpg http://buzzworthy.mtv.com//wp-conten...9/DSC_0127.jpg http://buzzworthy.mtv.com//wp-conten...9/DSC_0175.jpg Will the performers match the standards of the stage, the lights and the set, though? I hope they announce the 8th performer tonight or tomorrow morning, I'm really curious.

Rihanna and Chris Brown have apparently won the 'Best VMA's debut' poll.
http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/169...ma-debut.jhtml I didn't expect them to beat GaGa's 'Paparazzi' performance tbh. Maybe it's a hint that Chris Brown is the surprise guest after all.
