Britney To Open VMAs...

I never really watch the VMAs when they come on... but I may just watch this one. Britney Spears is now the confirmed opening act of the VMAs performing her hit "Gimme Some" or gimme more or whatever. Maybe this is why she has been talking to weirdo Criss Angel...

I wanted to start the show in a very big and dramatic way, and she's the one to do that," VMA executive producer Jesse Ignjatovic tells mtv.com "She'll captivate everyone, and set the tone for rest of the night."

Spears consulted with illusionist Criss Angel on "some moments of the performance" for Sunday night's show at the Palms Hotel and Casino, says Ignjatovic, who also confirmed that she'll perform her single "Gimme More" from her upcoming album.
