Britney Spears will open this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, despite last year’s embarrassing performance, which saw her ridiculed across the globe.
“MTV has long played an important role in my career. How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMAs?” Spears told People.com in a statement. “I’m excited to open the entire show, to say hi to my fans and to be nominated.”
Fans are already concerned as to how Brit Brit is planning on opening the show – another failed musical number could just ruin her flailing career – however, a source close to the star has confirmed that the opening segment “will not feature” a musical performance by Britney.
MTV’s Music President Van Toffler added: “Britney has done everything from perform with a snake, lock lips with Madonna and prove that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas. I can’t wait to see what she does to kick off this year’s show.”
The VMA’s for 2008 will premiere on Sunday at 9 p.m.
