Welcome to Idolator's liveblog of the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards, an event that we're expecting to be marked by
chaotically unrehearsed performances, awkward Britney Spears comeback attempts, and a lot of
really bad sound. I'm here on my couch with Jess, Kate, and a few interested outside observers; we're about five minutes out from the preshow, which will no doubt feature a lot of drooling mentions of how much money MTV is diverting from its
payroll to this weekend. Also:
drinking. Perhaps my expectations for the evening were best summed up by
the always-eloquent Tony Yayo during 50 Cent's performance that almost ended with Curtis drowning: "This sh— looks like the stage 'bout to be in the water." (Bleeping MTV's, of course.)
Not that we really know what "in the water" is going to entail in the middle of the desert, but either way, our full coverage is after the jump.

Welcome to Idolator's liveblog of the 2008 Grammys, a night that will have many generation-spanning performances and a few that might even span the divide between living and dead. We're on the last 30 minutes of the dueling preshows between E! and the TV Guide Channel, where we basically get to see people get asked the same questions about who they're wearing and why they're on our TVs. Also: Debbie Matenopolous! I guess when you get banished from The View you get to comment on Rihanna's nail polish for money. Which could be considered as "failing up," maybe. Our coverage begins after the jump.
