VMAs give Kanye West carte blanche to be Kanye West

25 August 2016, 18:07 | Written by Laurence Day

Kanye West has a long and torrid history with the MTV Video Music Awards, but now they're leaning into it - hard.

The VMAs have confirmed that Kanye will be in attendance at this Sunday's ceremony - which are aired live on TV. They also confirmed, according to reports, that he'll be given free run of the stage for four minutes.

TMZ (yes, we know) are saying even the show's producers are in the dark as to what he'll do: “He can rap, sing, dance or even just stay silent… and we’re told show producers are totally clueless which door he’ll pick.”

The VMAs are no stranger to controversy, and Kanye is certainly no stranger to controversy at the VMAs. Our bet is on a thoroughly underwhelming performance of "Famous" followed by a brief, aimless rant.
