We're so excited for the upcoming 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards coming up on June 20th! It's one of the best awards shows around in our opinion because it's all about you! It's not held in a stuffy auditorium, tickets are FREE and fans get to vote online for their fave Wildcard Nominees. And the best part is that it's just a huge street party for those lucky enough to live in Toronto. We're tempted to pack up our bags and set up a tent at MuchMusic headquarters on 299 Queen Street East just for this event! The entire awards show and all the performances are happening streetside and is designed to put fans as close to their favourite performers and celebrities as possible. Last year the Jonas Brothers hosted the show and you imagine how loud and crazy it all got!
This year's show!
MuchMusic has JUST announced this week that 17-year-old Miley Cyrus will be co-hosting the show. If that isn't enough to whip us all into an excited frenzy - [kwlink 24025]Justin Bieber and Katy Perry are the first two performances confirmed for the show!! This will be Justin Bieber's first performance at the MuchMusic Video Awards and comes two months before his concert at Toronto's Air Canada Centre! Past performances include Lady Gaga, Jonas Brothers, Avril Lavigne, Black Eyed Peas, Kelly Clarkson, Kanye West, The Killers and Fergie. All out in the open on the streets of Toronto!
