Angry Stefani Snubs Mtv Awards

Pop queen Gwen Stefani is angrily refusing to attend MTV's prestigious Video Music Awards (28AUG05), as bosses at the channel failed to offer her a performing slot.

The award-winning singer is deeply offended by the supposed snub, and she and her rockstar husband Gavin Rossdale are staying away in protest - even though the blonde style icon has a bevy of nominations.

An insider tells the New York Daily News, "We love Gwen and we hope she will be able to join us, as we know her fans would love to see her on this big night - especially since she's heavily nominated."

Meanwhile, Coldplay, Shakira, Ludacris, Mariah Carey, The Killers, Kanye West, Kelly Clarkson and Green Day will be rocking out at the musical spectacular.

hi. just wanna comment. dont wanna fight wit anybody. i love since u been gone since i 1st heard of that song, same as cool. both are good songs. both songs have good intros. kelly's sings more powerful songs and gwen performs like everybody wakes up. but why blame kelly? why blame gwen for not performing? why compare gwen and kelly? it's not about your #1 hits and how long uve been in the industry. it's not about kelly's nose and gwen's voice in 'cool' song or the whatever sound in it. theyre just 2 influential people who shares good songs to people. why not blame mtv for not giving gwen a chance to perform. being nominated doesnt guarantee an artist to perform? dunno... its ok if she wants to perform just for her fans but it seems like theres unhealthy competition running in comparing why is the other artist performing and im not? this is a cheap issue. yes, it includes me who joined i this crap. well, just thinking aloud. peace out! keep rockin chicks! \m/
