The Biggest Party in Toronto is Coming: 2011 MMVAs

What's going on Live.Laugh.Love readers?!

While Live.Laugh.Love. is about discussing music and pop culture, we also love to highlight some of the biggest events in Toronto. That being said, what better way than to discuss perhaps the biggest and most interactive party going on the streets of Toronto... The MuchMusic Video Awards! 

Drake


If you are not familiar with the MMVAs - basically every year MuchMusic shuts down Queen West and John Street, in order to put on the biggest and most interactive live show. It is a place where fans can get up close to some of their favourite artists. In previous years, the MMVAs have had some of the biggest names in music and pop culture such as: Lady Gaga, Drake, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Kanye West, the cast of Twilight, and Justin Bieber.  

Down With Webster
This year's show is no exception with Selena Gomez as co-host and performer, as well as performances by Lady Gaga, Avril Lavigne, Bruno Mars, The Black Keys, and City and Colour. This week, MuchMusic released the list of nominees. Overall, I am pleased with the nominees, as they seem pretty well-rounded as well highlighting some of the incredible talent we have right here in Canada. Click here to check out the full list of nominees!

JLS
Last year, Jackie and I attended the award show, and got to see some of our favourite artists like Down With Webster, Katy Perry, and Drake on the red carpet - keep in mind these are just a few of the artists. We even had the chance to meet the guys from British group JLS! 

  

Ultimately, the MMVAs are an incredible event that also relies on the opinions of fans with the UR Fave categories. Voting has started and you can vote until the day of the MMVAs, click here to vote for UR Fave Artist! 

JLS
Keep your eye on Live.Laugh.Love, as we will be highlighting some of our favourite nominees all leading up to the big show! 

The MMVAs air on MuchMusic, Sunday June 19th, at 9PM! Red carpet starts at 8PM!

Katy Perry
Will you be attending this year's show?! Who are you rooting for?! Which performances are you looking forward to?! As always, leave a comment or send us a tweet @jackieopoku @sinemtekin
