Russell Brand
The annual celebration of anything buzz worthy and cool enough to be played in heavy rotation on the ever popular cable channel MTV moves back to Radio City Music Hall in New York this year and has kooky Brit Russell Brand hosting the extravaganza again. We’ll have to wait and see who he insults this year as his favorite victim George W Bush is not in office any longer….
A number of star performances are ready to boost this year’s viewer ratings as stadium rockers Muse from the UK are set to preview their new album ““The Resistance” with a special performance. The trio will be featuring their new single “Uprising” off their first album in 3 years in front of the US and global TV audience.
Pop’s super star Beyonce is set to join The MTV Video Music Awards which have expanded their all star line up.
West coast pop punk royals Green Day are also set to make an appearance. The band is still riding the wave of the group’s latest and slightly controversial album 21st century Breakdown.
MTV will have rapper Wale and the band UCB take care of house band duties at the historical venue. US pop punk queen Pink is another big name scheduled to appear along with Beyonce . Beyonce’s husband Jay-Z is set to drop his new album ‘The Blueprint 3‘ later this year.
The MTV Video Music Awards will be beamed live to a global audience on September 13th.
(Back in 1996 British super group Oasis‘ Liam Gallagher shocked the live audience with his stage antics.)
