12 Unforgettable Moments In VMA History: Live Snakes, Baby Bumps, Meat Dresses, Oh My!

Live snakes, 50 pounds of raw meat, and a pregnancy! No, I'm not talking about a class camping trip gone horribly awry. I'm talking about some of my all-time favorite moments in VMA history. The craziest, most over-the-top, most unexpected, only-on-MTV (because trust me, they'll let you do anything from hang yourself from the rafters of Radio City to make out with Madonna) moments. The VMAs are a night of more access to celebrities than a year's worth of gossip mags combined (except MUCH better music, and none of that who-wore-it-better stuff), where unforgettable live performances – Eminem's army of bleached-blonde Marshall Mathers lookalikes storming Radio City at the 2000 VMAs – and fleeting moments – Beyonce's coy, joyous pat of her belly at the 2011 MTV VMAs – instantly become the stuff of pop culture legend and lore.

Some of my all-time favorite VMA moments include Britney Spears' late arrival to home room – which perfectly coincided with what would become the first of more than a decade's worth of VMA appearances – during her 1999 VMA performance debut – plus, well, a whole lot more Britney. Check out 12 of my favorite, most unforgettable moments in VMA history, vote for your favorite, and get ready for the VMAs by watching must-see moments from the 2011 VMAs.

1.) Madonna performs "Like A Virgin" at the first-ever VMAs in 1984: Neil Armstrong planted a flag in the ground to signify to the world that he'd landed on the moon. Madonna humped the stage at the first-ever VMAs in 1984 during her performance of "Like A Virgin" to signify to the world that she'd landed on the map. Decades later, the expectation of an appropriate level of inappropriateness during VMA performances still abides.

2.) Nirvana performs "Lithium" at the 1992 VMAs, chaos ensues: Back in the early '90s, when reality TV was basically just the nightly news and Snooki was just a 5-year-old figuring out how to perfect a pre-kindergarten hair poof, Nirvana gave one of their most unforgettable live performances (and perhaps the greatest rock performance in VMA history, despite an amp malfunction), Punking MTV execs by playing the first few lines of "Rape Me" (an anti-establishment hat tip), capped off by a perfect ending: Kurt Cobain smashing the band's instruments, Krist Novoselic accidentally smashing his face with a bass, and Dave Grohl bating Axl Rose, who'd allegedly challenged Kurt to a fight backstage before the show. The fun didn't stop there, though. Nirvana also sent a Michael Jackson impersonator to the stage to accept their Best Alternative Video VMA for "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

3.) Michael Jackson performs a 15-minute medley of hits at the 1995 VMAs: As the king of pop and the unofficial but undisputed king of MTV (sorry, Carson), Michael Jackson enjoyed an eminent and celebrated VMA career. In 1995, a year after he and then-wife Lisa Marie Presley shocked VMA viewers with their on-stage PDA (ahhhh, newlyweds), he opened the VMAs with a 15-minute medley of hits like "Billie Jean," "Beat It," "Don't Stop Till You Get Enough" and "Black or White," backed by Slash on guitar, followed by Basically, the VMAs turned into a mini Michael Jackson concert. That same night, Michael and Janet Jackson shared the VMA stage when "Scream" picked up VMAs for Best Dance Video, Best Art Direction and Best Choreography.

4.) Courtney Love interrupts Madonna's interview the 1995 VMA Pre-Show: Oh, how I love a good, cold cat fight. Especially when it involves flying beauty products. And Madonna. And Courtney Love. No stranger to controversy (or to NGAF), Courtney Love crashed Madonna's interview with Kurt Loder at the VMA Pre-Show by throwing her compact onto the platform. A clearly annoyed Madonna, to her credit, stayed patient and detached until she eventually just shut. it. down. Oh, Courtney. There's a time and place for everything. And this wasn't it. Until it was.

5.) Fiona Apple wins Best New Artist at the 1997 VMAs, DNGAF: Fiona Apple won Best New Artist at the 1997 VMAs, and instead of thanking her label, management, and/or God, she used her time in front of the mic to remind viewers that "this world is bull****." Because it was the '90s! And no one was happy!

6.) Britney Spears makes her VMA debut with "Baby One More Time" at the 1999 VMAs: Although she was essentially their opening act, Britney Spears kicked off *NSYNC's "Tearin' Up My Heart" VMA performance (and essentially managed to upstage them) with her own "Baby One More Time." NSYNC fans may remember the guys' sleveelessness and white-boy dreads and their dancers' now-hilarious skin-tight mock turtlenecks and lamé pants, but Britney Stans and pop culture obsessives will never forget the moment Britney stepped onto the VMA stage for the very first time.

7.) Eminem performs "The Real Slim Shady/The Way I Am" with an Eminem army at the 2000 VMAs: Before he took over Radio City Music Hall, Eminem took to the streets of New York, leading a posse of hundreds of Emimen clones dressed in his then-signature style – highlighter yellow buzz cut, oversized white tees, baggy jeans – into the 2000 VMAs for his performance of "The Real Slim Shady" and "The Way I Am." The result was a mesmerizing moiré of Marshal Mathers, and even when the real Slim Shady himself stood up, it was hard to correctly ID him. Eminem won the Best Male Video (in addition to Best Rap Video and Video Of The Year) that year for "The Real Slim Shady," and forebodingly, when he reached into his pocket to pull out his acceptance speech, he accidentally dumped out a handful of pills onto the stage. But after his legendary "The Real Slim Shady" performance – perhaps one of best rap performances of the show's history – Eminem dropped a classic zinger on stage by referring to the VMAs as "the one night where you can fit all these people I don't like into one room." Burn notice!

8.) Britney Spears performs "I'm A Slave 4 U" WITH A LIVE SNAKE at the 2001 VMAs: All it took to become an instant VMA legend and own one of the most unforgettable live performances in pop music was Britney Spears (in peak form), and a seven-foot albino python named Banana. Just say the words "Britney Spears" and "snake," and anyone who saw her iconic 2001 VMA performance (and surely you have if you're reading this) will immediately conjure the chill-inducing iconic image of Britney – arrestingly sexy in a green bikini top and abs you could bounce a basketball off of – fearlessly gyrating across the dangerously pyro-rigged stage, with a wild reptile draped over her shoulders like NBD.

9.) Rihanna performs "Disturbia" atop a wooden volcano on wheels at the 2008 VMAs: Am I the only one who still goes hard for Rihanna's 2008 VMA performance of "Disturbia"? Staging a televised production of "scary" could easy veer off into campy "It's A Small World After All" territory (nothing's scarier than scary-gone-cheesy) but Rihanna nailed both suspenseful and sexy and managed to throw in nods to the White Stripes and steampunk. Why are we not still talking about that? I am.

10.) Janet Jackson performs a dance tribute in honor and memory of Michael Jackson at the 2009 VMAs: With Michael Jackson's untimely passing less than three months prior, the 2009 VMAs could not go on without a fitting tribute to the King of Pop. After a sobering eulogy by Madonna, Janet Jackson, along with some of the best dancers and dancers and choreographers in the game, let loose a mind-bending pop spectacle of theatrics, special effects, and superhuman dance. Through her post-modern performance of "Scream," in lockstep with the visual of her brother on the screen behind her – she allowed Michael to live – and dance – again, before blowing a kiss to her brother above, leaving the astonished audience at Radio City – and watching on TV – transcended and gutted.

11.) Lady Gaga eschews couture in favor of a meat dress at the 2010 VMAs: The VMA invite pretty much comes with a mandate to dress COMPLETELY NUTS. And apparently Lady Gaga misread "completely nuts" as "completely meat," because she wore 50 pounds of it to the VMAs. Ring a bell? Meat dress! You remember now, right?

12.) Beyonce reveals her baby bump at the 2011 VMAs: Ohey, remember when Beyonce let the ENTIRE WORLD in on a little secret? Here's a refresher: after NAILING her debut performance of "Love On Top" (when you're Beyonce, all you really need is a sparkly blazer, a leotard and that smile), Beyonce opened her jacket and patted her belly to reveal that an itty, bitty baby Blue Ivy was burgeoning inside of her. IN CASE YOU FORGOT. Oh, and then Twitter basically broke.

2012 MTV Video Music Awards -- The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

MTV is hosting an awards show to honor something called a "music video" ... something that hasn't been seen on MTV in years.  Still, the stars need an excuse to get together and wear crazy outfits ... and TMZ has the photos of all the insanity that went down outside the event. **Be sure  to refresh your page for the most recent and up-to-date action.**

Michael Clarke Duncan’s Alleged Daughter Trying To Extort Money From Family

A woman has come forward to claim that she is the long-lost daughter of late actor Michael Clarke Duncan.
Duncan’s family grief has reportedly been fuelled by a woman who claims she is entitled to part of his estate as she is allegedly his daughter.
According to Radar Online, Marqay Ambrose, 32, says she hadn’t spoken to Duncan for 11-years but wants to claim “what’s mine.”
“The only thing that really bothers me about him passing is that we didn’t fix. That’s the only thing that I hate. I hate it, but it doesn’t bother me that I’m not mentioned,” Marqay told the website.
However, Duncan’s family apparently refuse to believe Marqay’s allegations and have no idea who she is. “Michael did date Marqay’s mother, but he believed he was not her father. He was in the hospital for 53 days, and she never once reached out or tried to talk to him then,” a source said.
“It was the DAY he died that she started calling his mother saying ‘I want what’s mine’ and trying to get money from her.”
She seems very opportunistic to be making the calls now, especially to his 93-year-old mother on the day her son died. Why wouldn’t she have tried to visit him after he had his heart attack?”
“Why didn’t she try and reach out to him while he was alive? It all seems like she just wants money and didn’t ever care about having a relationship with him.”
When the website tried to reach out to Marquay, she denied trying to extort money from Duncan’s family.

Facebook, Twitter friends raise N6m for cancer patient

While a large number of Nigerians have expressed concern over the safety of social networking sites, 28-year-old breast cancer patient, Osarere Idiagbonya, is certainly among the few that will not agree that the sites are evil.
Her friends on Twiter had harnessed the social media site to raise over N6m for the cancer patient for overseas treatment.
Idiagbonya, a laboratory technician, had detected lumps on her left breast in June 2011. She had undergone two surgical operations to remove the lumps but was later diagnosed with breast cancer on July 31 this year.
Her dad, Robert, who developed stroke in 2011 died on August 1(Idiagbonya’s birthday), a day after he was informed that her daughter had cancer. He was buried on August 31.
Celebrities such as Davido, Solid Star, Mo’cheedah, Alima Abubakar and Don Jazzy in the name of Marvin Records have donated to Idiagbonya’s cause

Agony of woman who has up to 100 orgasms a day

Kim Ramsey, 44, has a medical condition which can cause up to 100 orgasms a day
Kim Ramsey, 44, has a medical condition, which can cause up to 100 orgasms a day. Some people fake them, others ache for them, but for one woman the big O is the bane of her life…, as she has to endure up to 100 orgasms a day.
Kim Ramsey, 44, has a medical condition, which makes her feel constantly aroused. Even the slightest pelvic movement – on a train, in a car, doing domestic chores-can trigger a climax, but the sheer volume has left her tired, in pain and unable to have a normal relationship.
Ms Ramsey, a nurse originally from Hitchin, Hertfordshire, suffers from Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder PGAD.
Doctors believe the incurable syndrome was caused by an accident in 2001 when she fell down some stairs. This may have led to Tarlov cyst on her spine, at the point where a woman’ orgasms originates.
“Other women wonder how to have an orgasm- I wonder how to have an orgasm- I wonder how to stop mine, ‘she told the sun.
Ms Ramsey, who has since moved toMontclair,New Jersey, first noticed the problem in 2008 after having sex with a new boyfriend. She said ‘I had constant orgasms for four days; I thought I was going mad. ‘We tried everything to make it stop. Squats, deep breathing, I even sat on frozen peas but the orgasms and sexual arousal continued for 36 hours – I must have had around 200 orgasms during that period. The pain and exhaustion was excruciating’.
Ms Ramsey said she now finds it hard to go about her daily life, as she is worried she will not be able to control the sexual arousal. She said she no longer feels like she has control over her own body: ‘imagine feeling aroused for no reason other than you got up that day.
‘I’ve even had one in public, I was traveling home on the train and it was a bit of bumpy ride.’ Every jerk of the train or vibration made me more aroused and it was a 40-minute journey so there was nothing I could do. ‘I just had to bite my lip and sit on my hands and hope no one noticed’.
Although the sensations experienced during PGAD may seem like arousal, they are not actually based in any sexual desire, thoughts or behavior and it is unconnected to libido. Any pressure on the genitals can result in increased intensity – and bring on the urge to urinate.
Due to shame, guilt and fear of rejection, it is not clear how many people have the condition as some patients may suffer in silence.
Ms Ramsey added ‘both omen and men just don’t seem to get it- they seem to think kits a great thing and, believe me its really not ‘.
Despite going to several specialists about her condition, doctors remain unable to help. The condition is very rare and there has so far been very little research on it. Mr. Ramsey only received an official diagnosis, inPennsylvania, in June and will travel toLondonnext month to see a PGAD expert.
She said ‘At the moment I am able to work. But without the correct treatment, this condition can limit my ability to work. I don’t want that, it has already destroyed my chance of having a relationship’. Genital Disorder may be as common as one in a 100.
Dr David Goldmeier, an expert on sexual medicine at imperial college inLondonsaid ‘Persistent genital arousal disorder is a newly recognized condition, where the sufferer complains of long periods of genital arousal that are not associated with sexual desire.
‘PGAD sufferers experience intrusive, unsolicited and spontaneous genital arousal that can be unrelenting. This arousal can persist for hours, days or even longer. ‘This can be highly distressing for woman and despite attempts to relieve it with sexual activity or orgasm; this often doesn’t help or can worsen the symptoms.
‘This can bee highly distressing for a woman and despite attempts to relieve it with sexual activity or orgasm; this often doesn’t help or can worsen the symptoms. ‘Tarlov cysts are small jelly like cysts that form around the sacral area of the spine. They are common finding in normal people. One current research paper suggests that a lot of women who have PGAD symptoms, it would be advisable to suspect Tarlov cysts as a [possible underlying factor in the cause of PGAD.
‘Tarlov cysts can cause problems with the pelvic nerves and are reported to produce genital symptoms that bear similarities to those described for PGAD.’ spontaneous genital arousal is quite common but it’s those women who can’t control the arousal, which is uncommon.
‘I see around 20 women a year with this condition, it may be as common as one in 100 we just don’t know. ‘Sometimes it may resolve on kits own, there is no cure but there are a number of ways to manage the symptoms such as meditation and pelvic floor exercises along with pain medication for the patients.

A Must Read For all Ladies – How A Married Man I Met On BB Almost Kill Me With S**x and Drugged Drinks

The role of the social media in building relationships and businesses cannot be overemphasised. But the negative aspects seem to be growing with mixed reactions after the death of Cynthia Osokogu who was killed by friends she met on social media.

Since the case of Cynthia went viral, ladies who were before now ashamed to share their experiences in the hands of bad guys have started talking.

Below is the near-death experience a young lady had with a man who was her BBM friend:

I am a girl who has fears, beliefs, reservations and just your regular typical Nigerian girl. This past few weeks has been one hell of a game for me. I have really been unsettled and I thought I share this story with you.

When Cynthia (the lady killed in the hotel room in Festac, Lagos) surfaced on the internet and various news media, I was scared and it brought back a whole lot of memories to me and also served as and eye opener. Many people castigated and criticised Cynthia (may her gentle soul rest in peace), but my point is, it could have been anybody, anybody at all.

We have met people through various social media. Some have ended up well, some have not but with painful memories. To cut the long story short, let me kindly share with you my encounter with social media especially the very popular Blackberry Messenger (BBM).

I am a graduate and currently serving in Kaduna. I could have runced it, but I needed somewhere to clear my head and forget about my ugly encounter.

Here is my story.

I happened to have a married man as a contact on my BBM. He had been asking me out for over six months and I refused to date him. As time went on, he invited me clubbing with him when his wife was outside the country, and I went with him all night. We spent most of the night at Swe bar, Lagos.

I also met his clique of friends, married as well with their various mistresses. We had ‘mad’ fun. After all the clubbing and drinking, he lodged me in a hotel somewhere in Obalende. I felt sort of safe with him. We did not have sex, but he made sweet love to me and touched me in places I had never ever imagined.

He kissed me passionately but guess what? He did not have sex with me. We did all sorts but there was no penetration. So, to an extent, I trusted he was a good person to be around with. I did not know that it was all part of the plan.

He gave me N10,000 and put me in a cab to go home the next morning. We kept talking and chatting and sending naked pictures to each other and he told me naughty things of how he wanted to whisper things in my ear, I blushed. We didn’t see for two weeks and that was because his wife just came back from Turkey.

One faithful evening, he pinged me that he was organising a beach party/boat cruise and that he would love for me to be his date and that he wanted to open a BBM chat, as a medium for his friends and my friends to interact. I was excited about it, I just wanted to have fun. I was able to get five of my very hot friends.

The BBM group opened and we got chatting. I also realise that majority of them were married and working in reputable firms. It was fun and we didn’t mind if they were married, we just wanted to have fun, as well as some other girls apart from my friends in the group.

We chatted exclusively, sent pictures to the BBM group to introduce ourselves, and we had opened group conversations pending the beach party. And as excited as we were, we went shopping for nice sexy beach wears.

The D-day finally came, we all assembled at the Lagos Island Boat Club. I was wowed because it was a high class party. We were cruising in a boat loaded with goodies drinks and hot babes, and as well ‘MARRIED MEN’.

I did not care, I just said in my mind that I would not roll with married men anymore after this, that for now, all I wanted to do was to catch some fun. After all, I wasn’t paying bills.

We got there, it was a private beach resort. Most of the beach facilities I got to see there were owned by multinational companies. We got out of the boat, and went to where we were partying. It was a duplex made with wood. It was a very nice setting.

I felt comfortable because it even had a fence around it separating it from other beach houses around. So, there was privacy and of course bouncers (heavy looking guys) guarding the place. I said to myself, this must be heaven, I must be dreaming.

Anyways, we felt free with each other because we had been chatting. It was 5:30pm and the party just started. We had drinks flowing from the private bar tender which happens to be owned by one of the men in the group.

Reality struck when I realised that I was feeling dizzy and feeling really funny and light headed. Not only me, but other girls around me too noticed there was something strange about it.

I was also feeling HORNY as hell! I had been drugged. They monitored us and when they knew the drug had really gone deep into our system, they moved us up into the main beach house. I could still see faces, but was too weak and horny to react.

Mr B, the man who took me clubbing, carried me in his hands like a sacrifice and put me down on the floor just as other men also did with their girls. We were eight in numbers; 8 girls, 8 guys, and they all stripped us down and had s*x with us.

I enjoyed it a bit because I was horny. It was a mixed feeling because I cried, I moaned, but I did not know how many times he came into me. He pounded me hard. I was dizzy, but he grabbed me with force. All I could notice was the wedding ring on his finger.

I thought of how wicked and miserable some married can be. How inhuman and heartless they could be.

All of them took turns in switching partners and slept with all of us. I passed out. That was the last thing I could remember. I felt water poured on me. I noticed all the other girls around me too were half n*ked and some stark n*ked.

We spent the night at the beach, but the men were no where to be found. I looked round me and all I could see was packs of used condoms. I ran to pick my cloths and possibly raise an alarm. I got dressed, found my phone with an envelope.

It contained N16,000 and a note asking us to take N2000 each for transport. Tears of anger and rage filled my eyes and the girls around me as well.

“We were drugged and used like tissue paper. I grabbed my phone and noticed a ping came in. I checked my phone and I noticed the BBM group had been deleted, and a message via BBM from MR B came in. He threatened me that if I say a word to anyone, I would regret it.

I told him he was a bastard, and he said try it. A picture came in, several pictures. In fact, they were pictures of us being naked on the floor. Pictures of the humiliating us but they blurred the faces of the men. In total, I got 20 pictures. I was not myself for a month.

I went back to school, I had no one to talk to. The rest of the semester was hell for me. My CGPA dropped drastically. It was the worst out of the worst result I ever had.

Till today, my friends and I have not discussed this with anyone, but all I could do when I heard of Cynthia’s story was to narrate my own ordeal anonymously and spread the news, the word, and pray they (ladies who do runs) see it and changed their ways.

I am now born again. I have given my life to Christ. I fear men so much that I cannot even move close to them. I still have nightmares, but with time, God will strengthen me and I will move on. My advice to single ladies out there is, do not be desperate for fun.

Pray to God to open your eyes of understanding, and pray hard. He who kneels before God will stand before kings and queens.

To all married women, pray hard to God to intervene in your marriages and turn your husbands from bad habits and bad friends. As for me, I do not think I ever want to get married or date a man again. That chapter has been closed for good in my life.

Please, do not ignore my mail.Share it on facebook and Twitter. There are a lot of things we ladies need to learn. Please post it on your blog and save a soul. It could be your friend, sister, cousin, neighbour.

God bless you as you pass it on. To all readers, I do not care if you insult me or rain a buses at me. My job is to share this encounter with you and save you from any mishap.

EXCLUSIVE: Barry Bonds -- Of Course I Support Lance Armstrong*

How's this for irony ... Barry Bonds -- the poster child for steroid abuse in MLB -- is coming to Lance Armstrong's defense after the cyclist was banned from cycling for doping ... claiming Lance got screwed over (... of course).Bonds -- who was found guilty last year of felony obstruction of justice for lying during a federal investigation into steroid use by MLB players -- was leaving BOA steakhouse last night in Hollywood, when he was asked what he thought of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency's ruling on Lance.Bonds said, "I think if it wasn't for him, U.S. cycling wouldn't even be here. He was the greatest cyclist of all."The photog asked Bonds if he thought Lance had been the victim of a witch hunt -- Bonds replied, "I don't know what they're doing, all I know is I love him. He's a great athlete."Moral of the story -- for Bonds, the ends justify the means ... even if the means were dirty.

VMA Host Kevin Hart's Predictions: 'Unexpected' Mouth Kisses, Naughty Celebrity Seatbelts

Comedian Kevin Hart has hung with rap royalty, but when the action cranks up at Thursday's 2012 MTV Video Music Awards broadcast, he made a number of shocking revelations: he had a seatbelt installed for a celeb known for jumping up out of his chair in excitement, he plans to kiss all the girls and the performance he's most excited about is ... Green Day?
"This is gonna be a big deal, let's just go out and say it people," Hart told the gathered media swarm at a press conference on the roof of Staples Center on Tuesday (September 4) about what he has planned for the show, which will air at 8 p.m. ET/PT. "This year will be a big deal. Why? Because I say it's gonna be a big deal. How do I know? Because I'm a part of this. Being I'm a part of it, means that it's gonna be colossal! Huge!"
Hart promised a really big show, revealing
 that Rihanna will open the festivities with a collaboration featuring A$AP Rocky and another with the night's house DJ, Calvin Harris.
And though he couldn't show all his cards, he promised that Nicki Minaj will also grace the stage with a secret, previously announced performer guest and that 2 Chainz will make his VMA debut.
Considering the long history of unscripted celebrities-gone-wild moments at the VMAs, Hart promised he's already made plans to head off any potentially embarrassing moments. "What we did was we banned the artists that we feel are capable of doing such a thing," he joked. "Lil Mama is not allowed in the building. We actually got a seat belt in Kanye [West's] seat ... little things we did this year that they didn't think to do last year ... [but] I don't think we're going to have any incidents. And if we do? This is the place for it, it's MTV! It's the VMAs, you want the stupid stuff to happen ... so I'm hoping that somebody does do something stupid."
But one of the biggest revelations of the day was when an intrepid MTV News reporter asked Hart which performer viewers might be surprised he's most excited to see. "Green Day!" he said excitedly about the legendary punk trio he filmed a hilarious VMA promo with. "I had the pleasure of meeting Green Day and I wasn't educated on their music or what they've done and after talking to them I went and Googled some of their music and I liked it! Yes, people! I'm a young black man that likes Green Day! You heard it here."
Picking up from his massive closing performance at the 2011 Video Music Awards, VMA nominee Lil Wayne will also drop by for the proceedings to make the worldwide debut of his new single "No Worries," from his new mixtape, Dedication 4. Katy Perry will present the first award of the night, for Best Pop Video and pre-show performer Demi Lovato has been added as a presenter as well.
When another reporter asked if Hart anticipated any awkward or dramatic moments between him and the night's guests, the comedian said he absolutely had some planned. "Yes, I plan on kissing a lot of women in the mouth ... unexpectedly," he said. "It's just what I'm going for. I'm gonna try it, see what happens: Rihanna, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, just throwing out a few names."
The first-ever VMAs at Staples Center (which air at 8 p.m. ET/PT, with a pre-show at 7 p.m.) will also feature previously announced performances from One Direction, Taylor Swift, Pink, Frank Ocean and, of course, Green Day.
