Today, it was announced that both Lady Gaga and Jay-Z will be bringing their larger-than-life stage shows to this year's MTV Video Music Awards, adding much hype to the notoriously spectacle-driven ceremony.
The bold and beautiful Gaga didn't spare any enthusiasm for the event. "I'm simply gutted to be both a performer and nominee at the 2009 VMAs. In fact, I'm so happy, I could die," Gaga said, according to MTV News.
Gaga previously gushed about the VMA's when it was announced she'd tied with Beyonce for scoring the most nominations of any performer this year -- nine.
"So excited! I can't believe it," Gaga told reporters in Seoul, South Korea, according to MTV News. "I'm delighted to be in Beyoncé's company, and I can't wait to go to the awards show and hopefully kick some ass."

I didn't like her at first, but now I like "Just Dance" and some of her other songs. She actually has a good singing voice and she's actually quite pretty.
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta (born March 28, 1986), better known by her stage name Lady Gaga, is an American recording artist. She began playing in clubs in the New York City area while also working at Interscope Records as a songwriter for several established acts, including Akon, who signed her to a joint deal with his own label, Kon Live Distribution after hearing Gaga sing.
if she would at least have some class and self respect and quit dressing like a whore and could actually sing i might respect her this woman has no talent what so ever i have no idea what is the big deal about this idiot lady gaga she is a joke to the music industry.
Lighten up people. She's just being flambouyant like any Vegas show. Are they all whores too - of course not! I think the bubble outfit looks fun; would love that for a Halloween costume!
Not only is Gaga talented and original, she is also NICE. Never has a bad word for anybody or anything. Theatrical yet classy...and if that combo isn't radical, I don't know what is. More power to her.
Well tell her she has to have the talent first of all, these singers/bands don't have half of the soul that the bands did in the late 60's & early 70's did (Led Zeppelin, Humble Pie, Free, Grand Funk, Mountain, Hendrix..etc). What a sorry ass exuse for music today...and Jay-Z...lol..what a freakin' joke just like all of the oter goofy sounding Rappers...A BIG JOKE!!
