MTV is promoting their upcoming 2009 Video Music Awards (Sept. 13, 8:00pm central) with a star studded spin on the musical West Side Story. The video features Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Ne-Yo, Russell Brand, Cobra Starship, and Leighton Meister as millenial versions of the characters from the Sondheim classic. Despite the fact that no one featured in the clip (with the exception of maybe Ne-Yo) can actually sing, auto-tune manages to help enough to make the clip thoroughly entertaining. I hope the actual VMA’s can follow suit because I have been disappointed in the show for the past few years. Hopefully this promo is a sign of good things to come!
