Pink!! Katy!! Scarlett!! Lindsay!! Kid Rock!! McLovin!! Slash!! SARAH MARSHALL's Brand Hosts MTV’s VIDEO MUSIC AWARDS!!

Published at:  Sep 07, 2008 1:10:03 AM CDT

I am – Hercules!!


AICN talkbackers love love LOVE to complain about the MTV Video Music Awards, but they will watch, oh yes, because they are MTV’s sex puppets.

They will sit and masturbate furiously as the “The Jonas Bros.” cast and the “Drake & Josh” cast and the “High School Musical” cast and the “Twilight” cast and the “The Hills” cast take the Paramount stages in rapid succession. Their mothers, alarmed at the noise, will bang on basement doors and demand to know “what’s going on down there,” but this will impede neither their furious masturbation nor their incessant one-handed talkback whining.

They are America’s future.

British stand-up comic and chat-show host Russell Brand, 33, who stole Kristen Bell from Jason Segal in “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” is hosting. Brand was fired from his job as an MTV VJ on Sept. 12, 2001, after he came to work dressed as Osams Bin Laden. Despite this insanely evil act, the channel rehired him in 2006 to host a talk show. He’s reprising his “Forgetting” role of rock star Aldous Snow in another big-screen Judd Apatow comedy, “Get Him To The Greek.”

Shia LaBeouf, the thespianic equivalent of Spam, will be there too. Also? Mega-superstars DJ AM, Ciara, Lupe Fiasco, Chase Crawford, Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, T-Pain and T.I. as well. Learn who else is putting in an appearance here.

Pre-show starts 8 p.m. Sunday. MTV.
Actual show starts 9 p.m. Sunday. MTV.

    Don't let Russell Brand get his foot in the door. Once he does, you'll be begging for the return to the glory days when Dane Cook was the most irritating "funnyman" around.

    by jccalhoun

    I am glad that MTV moved the awards back to their pre-9/11 first weekend after Labor Day date from the weekend before Labor Day date they have been doing since 9/11 (although they may have done it last year I don't remember).Last years was horrible. I hope everyone involved in the decision making process of that is kept far away from this year's show

    Don't fucking watch this shit! You know it will be horrible! You all know MTV fucks babies, you all know this will be a self-congratulatory champagne soaked young Hollywood circle jerk where the shallowest people on the planet--people like P Diddy, Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton and the like get together to tell each other how great they are, and yet still so many watch. All you're doing is heartily encouraging crap. I hang my head in shame.

    I would fuck the dog shit out of Katy Perry. Sex with another man would be highly disappointing at best. And the taste of my cum is said to have hallucinogenic effects on the female mind. So don't mind the baggage.

    When you had the suckfest of last year's VMA's, there's nowhere to go but up. I'm wondering just how many hours a week MTV now devotes to *just playing music videos*. It can't be that much anymore, what with the Hills, and Exiled, the new Super Sweet 16 spinoff.

    Weak Ass Shit!

    by p0llk4t

    MTV killed the radio star. Then they killed the video star. And finally they killed the music industry. I guess I can thank them for that...Love how MTV2 played music for like one year and now it's all re-runs of Real World vs Road Rules vs Sweet 16 vs Tila Tequila's band of morons.
    I'll give them credit, MTV has the best advertising/marketing department in the world. How else can they get people to shut of their brains and watch pointless, mindless, shit that's rerun ad nauseum 24x7. For proof of that, I offer the complete wannabe-pseudo-celeb-absolute-idot-worthless whore Tila Tequila. Way to make the intellectual evolution of our society jump 50 years back. Idiots.MTV, please change your name to MediaWhore TV...God knows you have absolutely nothing to do with music...douchebags.

    The VMA's this year show how cheap MTV is now!

    by kguy1326

    Seriously! They used the studio that that fuckin' fag show FNMTV is taped in. I felt this year's VMA's were an apologetic excuse for the past few bad ones. Sadly, this wasn't any better.

    Brand wasn't too bad, however I hated how apologetic and ass-kissery he acted. It made MTV seem like they had no balls anymore. When Britney Spears wins 3 awards for a video that was barely shown and not that innovative, you know video art form is dead and so is MTV. The only award I was happy with was Pussycat Dolls winning. I did like how Slash laughed at the fact Linkin Park won Best Rock video. "Shadow of the day" is a boring song from one of Linkin Park's worst albums. Christina Aguilera was good.

    Overall, I'd sum up the show like this. You get ready to go to the dentist to have teeth pulled. You know it's gonna be a long painful process. When you get there, he doesn't pull teeth. He just gives you laughing gas, makes you laugh, then puts you to sleep. Two hours later you wake up wondering where the hell you are and what happened. You then suddenly forget it all, and go on with your life. As if it never happened. It was a very uneventful and non-exciting show.
