Britney Spears and Jonas Brothers Nab Top VMA Nominations After flopping at last year’s MTV Video Music Awards, Britney Spears has a chance to reclaim her pop queen crown this year. Spears is nominated for the VMA’s top prize – video of the year – for “Piece of Me.” She’ll battle it out for the award with tween sensations the Jonas Brothers for “Burnin Up,” Chris Brown for “Forever,” the Pussycat Dolls for “When I Grow Up” and newcomers The Ting Tings for “Shut Up and Let Me Go.” Spears nabbed third nominations for this year’s VMAs. Earlier, fans nominated her for best pop video and best female video, both for “Piece of Me.” Earlier this month, Britney taped a promo for the show with host Russell Brand…and a 9,000-lb. elephant. The VMAs air live from Los Angeles Sept. 7 on MTV. Article Source: Celebrity.com
