With the 2011 MTV VMAs just two days away, it got us thinking: Boy, some nutty things have happened over the years. Butts have been exposed, pop queens have kissed, and there have been just plain awkward moments.
The question now is what’s going to happen next: Maybe Lady Gaga will wear a live animal—who knows? So while we wait for the madness to ensue, let’s speculate! Below are some things that just might happen.
Award Theft
Kreayshawn’s “Gucci Gucci” loses to Foster The People’s “Pumped Up Kicks” in the Best New Artist category. While the band accepts their award, ‘Shawn storms the stage (kind of like this guy) and steals the mic and the award, calling them and fellow nominees Tyler, The Creator, Wiz Khalifa, and Big Sean “basic b—-es.” Tyler, of course, is the only one who finds this funny.
Check out the rest after the jump.
Lady Gaga Goes “Normal”
Amid rampant speculation about what she’ll wear during her red carpet strut and performance, Gaga does the unthinkable: She wears regular clothes. When Gaga arrives to be interviewed by MTV journalist Sway, his first question is, “You’re kidding, right?” In black Levis skinny jeans, two-inch heels, a white shirt, and red blazer, she looks up at a confused Sway and says, “Honey, I’m so serious. This is what I’m wearing tonight on stage as well.” Sway’s head explodes.
Adele Literally Blows the Roof Off
While performing her fiery single about an ex, “Rolling in the Deep,” Adele digs deep into the recesses of her mind—recalling past arguments and disappointments with said dufus and sings with even more passion than usual. Backed by a gospel choir, the soulful bridge is intense, to say the least. Suddenly screws are twisting free, raining from the ceiling. Spotlights are falling. Still, stuck in the moment, Adele continues to wail. Then it happens. The roof flies off of Los Angeles’ Nokia Theatre. Only one person in the building has not run for their life: Beyoncé, who is giving Adele a standing ovation with tears streaming down her cheeks. Bravo, indeed.
The VMAs air live from Los Angeles Sunday at 9 p.m. (live ET/ tape-delayed PT). What are some things you hope will happen? Let us know.

Lets be honest.. this article is only here so EW could write more about Lady GaGa.
Like it or not, the greatest speculation about the VMAs this year are (1) what will Gaga do in her performance and (2) what will she wear? Wondering who will or won’t win is almost secondary in terms of anticipation for this show. So any site that is covering the VMAs is going to be speculating about Gaga.
Wow! Mtv will give awards for videos they don’t play on their channel! I find this ironic!!BTW,I wanna share a good news to you.My best friend ,she just has announced her wedding with a millionaire man who is a celebrity !they met via
Celebmingle.C óM ..it is the largest and best club for celebrity and their admirers to chat online. …You do not have to be rich or famous. ,but you can meet one , It’s worthy a try,Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends!
The primary reasons for EW to even exist is to write about:
1) Lady Ga Ga
2) Glee
3) Lady Ga Ga
4) Twilight
5) Lady Ga Ga
You forgot Hunger Games
Also, so that Lady Gaga haters would have a place to troll.
Don’t forget about Lost and Harry Potter…doesn’t matter that they’re both over.
OK I love Adele…. but the entire article was crap. Why waste space on the site? Really?
sorry, but a lame article.
Isn’t MTV giving out awards for videos like ESPN giving out awards for cooking shows?
How Dare You Compare The Award winning journalism of ESPN to The Piss Soaked trash of MTV.
I expect Adele to deliver a beautiful, hit-making performances of “Someone Like You” much like her Brit Awards performance. And as for GaGa, I really expect she will attend (or at the very least perform) as her surly, whiskey chugging male alter ego, Jo Calderone.
Why bother with nominations and announcing winners? Just put all of these freaks in a cage and let the cameras roll.
I’m all about seeing Britney, but I’m excited about the performances and the Amy tribute too.
I think the biggest shock will be that britney performs live, and she’s actually singing.
Wow! Mtv will give awards for videos they don’t play on their channel! I find this ironic!!
I love that Adele bit.
i am really sad because this stupid hurricane is going to knock our electricity out here on the east coast, and I’m going to miss the VMAs ;((((((
Am I the ONLY person on the East Coast afraid that we’re not even gonna see the VMAs Sunday night since we may be without power due to Irene?!!?!? *SIGH* GOOD LUCK EVERYONE AND GOD BLESS!!
They will play the VMAs 8000 more times over the next year.
I think that the New Artist award is always upset when the lesser known artist wins the award over the most popular new artist that year. That’s happened a few times the past few years at that MTV awards. And I think it’s going to be a toss up with Katy Perry, Adele, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj and Britney Spears each winning one or two awards because those girls have been dominating this year on the charts and the videos! It’s not going to be a sweep. And each of them will outdo each other in their respectable performances! And I can’t wait to hear the Lady Gaga and Cher opening song! Talk about over the top and their revealing costumes! I think Cher might outdo Gaga with the outfits!
I agree about the Adele prediction–that everything will fall apart on the stage to show her anger at her ex, the live band will still be performing and she will still impress us with her soulful singing! It will have some fireworks and pyro in her big production! To show that she feels the words in the song! There’s no doubt that it’s a great record from her and it was a major hit this year!
