And the Video of the Year at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards is... Rihanna's 'We Found Love!' RiRi beat out Drake, Katy Perry, Gotye and M.I.A. to take home the big award of the night for one of the songs she had performed to open the award show broadcast.
As you can see in these performance and show pictures from the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards, the entire evening was jam-packed full of entertaining moments. Rihanna kicked off the festivities in true gangsta fashion, rising from beneath the stage lounging in a throne, all while basking in red light. She sang 'Cockiness' and 'We Found Love,' but the ultra risque first song was definitely the standout.

With nominations for everyone from Justin Bieber to Nicki Minaj to Zooey Deschanel, some frontrunners are predictable: Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and hostess with the mostess Demi Lovato are favorites for all of their categories, though for some of them they’re actually competing against one another!
Before performing the new piano ballad ‘Princess Die’ in Perth, Lady Gaga prefaced the song by saying that her new album will lack the maturity and sense of responsibility that defined ‘Born This Way.’ She also seemed to reveal that ‘Princess Die‘ will indeed appear on the new album, whereas it was TBD when she first debuted the song.
R&B singers Drake and Chris Brown are not the only ones who admire Rihanna. Rapper Flo Rida is also infatuated with the Barbadian singer and has recorded a tune dedicated to her called . . . ‘Rihanna (That’s My Attitude).’
