121106_spn_nelly01.jpg

MTV just announced a whole slew of new performers for this year's Video Music Awards, airing live from Las Vegas on September 9th.

Added to the lineup are: Nelly Furtado, Gym Class Heroes, Lil' Wayne, T-Pain, Cee-Lo and Daniel Merriweather.

They join previously announced performers including Timbaland, Kanye West, Fall Out Boy, Chris Brown, Amy Winehouse, the Foo Fighters and Rihanna.

Timbaland will serve as "maestro," in charge of creating several "show-stopping and unexpected artist collaborations."

That means we can expect some Justin, and - if we're lucky - Madonna too.

Don't hold your breath for Britney!

      you mentioning britney is like you hoping to see her there… you are saying that she is going to flake…but in the end…you still want her there…

      i havent watched the vma's fully since 2004… nobody wowed me like britney did in the past…

      Do we have to be subjected to the 50 year old grandma, who is twice the age of all the other performers? And I am referring to the queen phony bitch - Vadge/Esther/Madge/Madonna. She is too old and ugly. No one gives a shit about her and all you obsessed fans don't need to quote all her album and concert sales. Who gives a shit? That is all from Europeans and gays. Vadge is old.

      WoW! This year's VMA is going to suck…Big Time. This is a horrible list of performers. Most of the music is going to be R&B and Hip-Hop; The crappiest music around. I doubt that I will tune in to watch it after seeing this list of performers. *Sigh* I wish the VMA's would go back to the good old days…When Britney was making out with Madonna. If only…

      nelly has NEVER exploited her kid,..nobody has a clue what she looks like and has never been photographed by the media.

      same with shania twain..she has a son named asia..NEVER been photographed
      nobody has ever seen him.

      john bon jovi..same with him as above

      britney exploits her kids any chance she gets for profit.

      63

      Yawn! What a line up of also-rans. Great if the VMA's are aimed at the music industry execs, but a bit lame if it's intended as a primetime special. It's a perfect example of how bland, homogenised and formulaic the US music scene has become.

      furtado is a sell-out. I remember when she was singing like mr. magoo. "i'm like a bird, i wanna fly awaayyyy"

      Well, I won't hold my breath for Amy Winehouse either. By the way, are you serious about this Nelly Furtado thing? What is wrong with the universe? She is HIDEOUS. She has a snagglemouth and, um, doesn't anyone remember how ANNOYING that "I'm Like a Bird" song was? A few years and you alllllll forget. That song haunts my dreams.

      But the lineup here is all pretty dreadful anyway…… top crating artists are such commercial drivel,and over rated crap

      Last night on E they said Britney had pulled out of the VMA's. I wonder if its true! I really want her to perform, only to watch the media onslaught and her inevitable crash and burn.
