Lady Gaga appeared yesterday at MTV’s Times Square studio in Manhattan to share some big news. In true Gaga style, she had her Little Monsters deliver the news that she’ll be opening the 2011 Video Music Awards.
Her “Monsters” held up a huge banner that read: “GAGA TO OPEN VMAs!!!” Lady G then told the gathered crowd, “It means the world to me. I just feel really blessed every day. I have the most amazing fans.”
Last year Gaga took home eight VMAs. Who can forget that now infamous meat dress? This begs the question…how can she possibly top that?
The songstress is nominated in four categories: Best Female Video, Best Video With a Message (Born This Way), Best Art Direction and Best Choreography (Judas).
The VMA’s will be broadcast on MTV and MTV.com from Los Angeles’ Nokia Theater on Sunday, August 28 at 9/8c. Our very own Danni Starr will be on hand to cover the event.
It has been a big week for the artist, who also released her latest music video You and I.
