So i was watching mtv as a way to procrastinate for studying for a test I have tomorrow, and what did I see? The little VMA ad in the corner has a quick flash of an exciting message: BRITNEY OPENS SHOW. I guess thats as official as you can get! A few post below, there is confirmation that she has arrived on set and is in the backstage dressing room. Rumors have been flying with both confirmation and denial, so this is setting things straight. Britney will indeed be gracing the VMA stage in a few short hours. Set your tivos, y’all!
oh and just some VMA trivia: Britney Spears has performed countless times on the VMAs but has yet to actually WIN a moonman award.
EDIT:
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Another year, another attempted comeback for Britney Spears at the MTV Video Music Awards.The rebounding pop queen is hoping to complete a do-over of sorts as she kicks off Sunday’s awards ceremony, not with a performance, but with an appearance MTV Networks Music Group President Van Toffler has described as “fun and unexpected.”

Michael Phelps definitely isn’t complaining about being considered an eligible bachelor.
“It feels pretty cool,” Phelps, 23, told PEOPLE in an exclusive interview at Walt Disney World’s America’s Homecoming Parade in Orlando on Friday. “I don’t feel any different. I’m just having fun with this.”
But when it comes to recent rumors linking him to Nicole Johnson, a former Miss California USA runner up, he’s remaining coy. “I never said I have a girlfriend, and I never said I don’t have a girlfriend,” said Phelps. “My public and private life are separate. I keep my private life to myself.”
Johnson, who spoke to PEOPLE recently, wouldn’t confirm a courtship but says, “we’re good friends.”
The 14-time Olympic gold medalist did open up about his strangest encounter with female fans. He described a girl in the crowd at the Disney parade who held up a neon green sign that said “Congratulations, Michael” on one side and “Call me” with her phone number on the other. “I started laughing,” says Phelps.
The Baltimore native will be sure to attract more female attention when he shows off his acting chops as the host of the season premiere of Saturday Night Live on Sept. 13.
“It’s going to be really strange, but fun,” he said. “We’ll see if I really am a fish out of water and if I have a comedic side to me. All of my friends are giving me a hard time about it and saying I better not mess up and better not do this or do that.”
And the in-demand Phelps will add another credit to his acting resume: The star swimmer also filmed a cameo on Thursday for an upcoming episode of HBO’s Entourage, one of his favorite shows.
