With the VMAs just a few weeks away, the hype continues to grow. MTV keeps slipping bits and pieces of information to the media to keep people talking about the show, and it’s working.
First they released the list of the first wave of performers, but encouraged fans to keep checking back as the big announcements were still yet to come.
How’s this for a big announcement! This week MTV put out a promo for the August 28th show and it’s all about Britney Spears. The music network is planning a tribute to the pop princess and judging from the promo, it’s not going to disappoint.
Britney is no stranger to the VMA stage. From the jeweled out barely-there body suit performance in 2000, her dancing snake performance in 2001 and of course the 2007 Gimme More comeback performance that was quickly labeled a disaster, Spears and the VMAs have quite the history.
The singer has won four moonmen awards and although the promo doesn’t hint that Brit will be performing, her fans are holding out hope.
We’ll be on hand for the star-studded event at the Nokia Theatre in L.A. and will be covering backstage interviews … so stay tuned.
