What to Expect At The 2016 MTV Video Music Awards!

**NOTE** Listen all weekend to KiSS 92.5 to hear back to back music from VMA nominated artists such as Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Rihanna and more!

It is truly the one award show where ANYTHING can happen.

We’ve seen a sexy kiss between two of the biggest stars in music…

We have seen some REALLY awkward/controversial dancing between two stars (*ahem* hi Miley, hi Robin Thicke)

How can we forget this infamous Kanye/Taylor Swift moment?

The latter may have another “OMG” moment at this year’s event as MTV VMA producers have given Kanye 4 minutes to do WHATEVER he wants at this year’s show.

Look at what happened last year when Kanye took the stage…

This year should be just as good…and surprising.

What we DO know is that Britney Spears, Nick Jonas, The Chainsmokers and Rihanna will all perform; the latter will receive the MTV Michael Jackson Vanguard Award this year (so well deserved too).

Below are a full list of nominees, let us know what you are looking forward to most this year!
