MTV Music Awards Tonight
So it's going down tonight in Los Angeles, the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards and although there has been a bit of a shift with the timing with the President speaking at the DNC, expect a fantastic show. Taking place an hour earlier 8pm EST – 10pm EST the show which is being hosted by Kevin Hart will feature performances by Alicia Keys, Frank Ocean, Lil Wayne, One Direction, Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna and Green Day.
Just can't help wondering if anyone will be able to upstage Beyonce's baby news from last years show
