It’s that time of year again when we eagerly anticipate some sort of broadcast disaster.
The nominations for this year’s MTV Video Music Awards have been announced, and it’s pretty much all about Beyonce (and a little bit about Adele).
Kanye West’s controversial “Famous” was, of course, nominated.
Who knows? Maybe Fergie was right to predict that his and Kim Kardashian’s feud with Taylor Swift was one big hoax, and we should expect to see the trio take the stage that night. Together. Holding hands. Laughing.
Let’s see who’s up for what:
