Well, the tour of the MTV awards set just wrapped up and let me say…… uh ……it was ridiculous. In the best way possible.

Russell Brand, the show’s host, gave us a private tour. Christina Aguilera showed up to tell us she was performing at the show, with a new look (futuristic) and a new sound (equally futuristic).

TI came swinging in off of a scaffolding to talk about his performance….

Kanye West is going to be closing the show, Katy Perry is doing a version of ‘Like a Virgin’, Lil Wayne may or may not be performing with Kid Rock….. who we saw rehearse.

Britney will be opening the show…. not performing but in a “mind blowing capacity” according to Russell Brand.

Ps: The show is not IN a set. The set is outside. They’ve built a city!!!! It’s blocks and blocks of downtown Chicago in the 30s. That’s right….. it’s a city built on the Paramount lot. Like a movie set.

This is going to be insane!
