LMFAO Say Past VMA Invitations 'Lost' In The Mail

Posted:

'We move every year, and the Postal Service hasn't figured it out,' RedFoo jokes to MTV News about Sunday marking their first VMAs.

While LMFAO acted as our red-carpet VMA DJs last year, Sunday will mark their first time at the main show, where their zombie-themed "Party Rock" video is up for Best Choreography.

So how is it that the dance-music duo are VMA virgins?

"This might be the first time we were invited, or we might not have gotten [the invitation] in the mail," SkyBlu joked to MTV News on Saturday (August 27), just one day before the show takes place at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. "The last 28 invitations got lost."

His partner in party crimes, RedFoo, added: "We always move every year, and the Postal Service hasn't figured it out. And we always get the things, like, 'That was three months ago; could have went.' "

Well, now that they're going, LMFAO have some words for their competition in the category, which includes Britney Spears ("Till the World Ends"), Bruno Mars ("The Lazy Song"), Lady Gaga ("Judas") and Beyoncé ("Run the World [Girls]").

"We gonna have to go ahead and take that," SkyBlu warned. "We're gonna have to go take that back to the shack ... we've already won. The whole world's shuffling. We made so many people happy [and] so many people made us happy. I feel like we've already won, so thank you."

The 28th annual MTV Video Music Awards will air live Sunday from Los Angeles at 9 p.m. ET/PT, following the Selena Gomez-hosted pre-show at 8. See the list of nominees, revisit last year's highlights and vote for Best New Artist by visiting VMA.MTV.com.

Things just got interesting. Days after Lil' Wayne dissed Jay-Z on Tha Carter IV's "It's Good," we wondered aloud how awkward would it be with Beyonce and Lil' Wayne in the same space at the MTV Video Music Awards. Well, E! News is reporting that The Throne themselves, Kanye West and Jay-Z, will also be in attendance and performing at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards. Maybe they will join Beyonce to perform "Lift Off," or possibly their lead single "Otis," with the Maybachmobile. Who knows, but with all involved parties performing at the VMA's, this show just got very, very interesting.

Video: T.Shirt - 'Ode To Raekwon' [TheSource.com Premiere]








While most of you are stuck in the crib for the day, TheSource.com decided to premiere a new visual off of NY emcee T.Shirt's mixtape I Should Just Chill. T.Shirt's lyrical tribute to The Chef, "Ode To Raekwon," is directed by Ronin of Hotmop Films, who employs plenty of Japanese imagery in bringing the rugged rhymer's wax poetics to life. Homeboy's words (i.e. "aren't you sick of everybody singing the same song?") are just another example of how NY rappers are hungry to bring the crown back home again, and are sending a message to more thriving regions to proteck they neck and not get too comfortable. 


You can grab T.Shirt's mixtape here and be sure to check out his sinister Derek Pike directed video "For The Record" as well.

Lady Gaga Calls Fellow VMA Performer Adele 'Lovely'

Posted:

Victoria Justice and Jessie J also heap praise on the breakout star.
By Gil Kaufman, with additional reporting by Christina Garibaldi


Adele

If Adele is ever feeling unloved again, all she has to do is look at the charts and see that she has more than 3 million people who are really feeling her second album, 21. And as she prepares to take the stage at Sunday night's VMAs, where she's nominated for seven awards for the smash hit from her breakthrough effort, "Rolling in the Deep," she can also take heart in knowing that a lot of her fellow divas are crushing on her as well.

"She's a breath of fresh air and she's so exciting and her music is adding another dimension to radio that's so important," Lady Gaga, who is opening the 2011 VMAs, told MTV News. "She's [also] a truly lovely person -- which, to me, is always my favorite."

Whether they're enamored with her powerful singing voice, her sweet disposition or her stirring live performances, Adele has plenty of other professional admirers.

"I'm so proud [of her]," said "Price Tag" singer and pal Jessie J, who will be the house artist at Sunday's VMAs. "I did go to school with Adele and she's a good friend of mine, and I'm so proud of her and I'm so excited to see her. I definitely think she should win something this year. She deserves it."

"Victorious" star Victoria Justice is also a big fan. "I'm really excited to see Adele perform. ... 'Rolling in the Deep' is amazing, but her new album, 21, is just really, really great. I'm excited to see her live. I think she's so talented, and I'm so happy that she's become this huge star."

In addition to her multiple nods, Adele will take the stage Sunday night to perform at the VMAs, along with Beyoncé, Gaga, Bruno Mars, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown and more.

The 28th annual MTV Video Music Awards will air live Sunday from Los Angeles at 9 p.m. ET/PT, following the Selena Gomez-hosted pre-show at 8. See the list of nominees, revisit last year's highlights and vote for Best New Artist by visiting VMA.MTV.com.

Britney Spears Is 'Epitome Of Pop,' Says Demi Lovato

Britney Spears is set to get the tribute treatment this Sunday at the 2011 Video Music Awards. At 29, she may be younger than your typical awards show tribute subject, but looking back at Brit's catalog of great videos and memorable VMA moments, we think she deserves it.

As part of the new generation of pop stars following in Britney's footsteps, Demi Lovato is pretty excited to see how the icon will be honored on Sunday night.

"Who isn't a Britney Spears fan?" Lovato asked, just days before the show goes live from the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles. "My favorite Britney Spears song is 'I Wanna Go,' 'cause it's the latest song that she has and I love it."

Go behind the scenes as Britney films her 2011 VMA promo.

Since Spears first took the VMA stage back in 1999, alongside 'NSYNC, she's managed to rack up five performances and take home four Moonmen, the first of which was back in 2008, over 11 years after her first appearance on the show. At this year's show, she's up for two awards for her video for "Till The World Ends," Best Pop Video and Best Choreography.

Demi has a simpler reason for a Britney tribute: " 'Cause she's the ultimate pop star; nobody can touch her," Lovato said. "She's been around for such a long time now and she's the epitome of pop. So when I think of pop music, I think of her."

While Demi is gushing about Brit's long pop career, she's poised to launch the next phase of her own. She will drop her album Unbroken next month. Its lead single, "Skyscraper," rocketed to the top of the charts when it was released earlier this summer.

The 2010 VMAs famously sparked more than 2 million tweets. But with Sunday's show set to kick off live with an opening set from Lady Gaga, plenty of superstar performances by nominees like Lil Wayne and Beyoncé, as well as some hotly contested races, MTV's big show seems poised to set the social networking site on fire once again.

Last year, fans hit Twitter to shout out things like Gaga's meat dress, and share their opinions on the winners and losers, the crazy fashions, and the general shenanigans unfolding inside L.A.'s Nokia Theatre. On Sunday, the MTV Twitter Tracker will be monitoring everything that gets you buzzing during the 2011 Video Music Awards.

So here's how it works: Fans who want to get in on the VMA action can head to our MTV Twitter Tracker, where the section labeled "buzz" will display photos of the celebs getting the most mentions. The photos will shrink and grow depending on popularity from moment to moment, so you'll always know who's blowing up.

Join the conversation on Twitter! Use the hashtag #VMA!

In the "paparazzi" section, photos of all the A-listers will be uploaded in real time from the black carpet Pre-Show and backstage. The photos can be retweeted directly from the site, and fans are definitely encouraged to try to trend their favorite pics— VMA attendees will be doing it too. In fact, during commercial breaks in the show, the Twitter Tracker will be displayed inside the theater so all of the stars can see who's trending and weigh in on the conversation.

The Twitter Tracker app is Web-based and can be accessed on iPhones and iPads, just log on and follow along with MTV News correspondent Jim Cantiello throughout the pre-show and the VMAs using the hashtag #VMA.
