MTV Has VMAs on Lockdown!

Posted May 1st 2007 7:44PM by TMZ Staff

You want your VMAs? Pay attention -- this year you're only going to get one shot.

TMZ has learned MTV is set to announce tomorrow that the 2007 Video Music Awards will be held in Las Vegas on September 9 at the Palms Hotel and Casino. Not only will the awards show air that Sunday, but MTV plans on turning Vegas out that entire weekend. Time to book that Southwest flight!

In addition, what happens in Vegas really will stay in Vegas. The network, notorious for running its awards shows over and over ad nauseum, has changed its tune. This year's VMAs will only be seen once, broadcast live in its original form. Remixed versions of the show will be run, created by and for you -- the viewer. If you only want to watch the rap-related awards -- that's what you'll get.

We're told MTV thought the Palms' owners, uber-celebufriends the Maloofs, would be a perfect fit for this year's event.

Think we can get a comp buffet (or two)?

32. Though it is MTV's show, Britney's been known to be friends with the Maloofs. It could happen.

35. The MTV awards sucks i dont really watch it because its not that interesting 2 me and plus their performances suck and the only reason why they are changing the location is to hide the fact that its a boring award show and that BET has the number one award show on cable t.v. Also the network sucks i dont even know why the call it the video music awards because the bearly play video and the only time the do that is in the early morning when nobody is awake and durin trl which sucks too and all they play is reality show so the award show shoul be called RSA reality show awards. So that concludes that i wont be tunning in this year.
