All pre-show, during-show, post-show discussions, crazy outfit critiquing, or just chastising MTV for moving their videos to two premium cable channels instead of regular MTV goes in here.
So have fun!

They're gonna do this even though Hurricane Irene is on the way? It's in Los Angeles, so it won't be affected at all. EDIT: Got beaten twice to it. BTW, I'm expecting Katy Perry to win most of her awards tonight, including Video of the Year. That's why I'm hoping that the winner for Video of the Year is anyone but Katy Perry. Specifically, the Beastie Boys.

Interesting note: If the Beasties win, it will mark the first time a video has won Best Video without the artist actually appearing in it.

I don't even know who's nominated for who. Nor I care. Yet, MTV will most likely try to stage another act for ratings, so what the hell do I know?

Who's performing tonight? Lady Gaga and Lil Wayne for sure, cause their ads have been placed all over MTV shows. Also, I've heard Adele, Bruno Mars, Chris Brown, Pitbull, Beyonce, Young the Giant, and a Britney Spears tribute are all planned. I might be forgetting one or two, I'm not sure. EDIT: Apparantly, I just forgot that an Amy Winehouse tribute is planned, with Gaga, Adele, and TONY BENNETT. Yes, THAT Tony Bennett. He recorded a song with Winehouse before she died, and the song will probably be performed tonight.

Also rumors of a Jay-Z and Kanye performance, maybe a hook-up with Beyonce with their track of Watch The Throne. Also a possibility of an appearance by Bad Before Evil, which may make sense with Bruno performing.

Young the Giant is the token rock act. In past years there was always more rock acts performing compared to the past decade.

If we get Bad Meets Evil & Watch the Throne action, MTV earns a few months of me not hating it.

Demi: I'M STILL FAT! *runs off crying*
Selena: *speechless* You're a dick, Sway.

Sadly, I only get the annoying west coast feed. Will watch in three hours or so.
