The most exciting awards show of the year is right around the corner -- MTV's Video Music Awards, and the music video channel is in full swing with promotion. Just like last year, host Russell Brand stars opposite Britney Spears in a cute, new commercial, but that's hardly MTV's gayest move.
The newest video promotion for the event is mega-collaboration parodying the West Side Story classic, "Tonight." It features a number of the night's confirmed performers, including Katy Perry, Ne-Yo, Taylor Swift, Russell Brand, Leighton Meester, and Cobra Starship.
Check it out above, and be sure to catch the always juicy MTV Video Music Awards, September 13th at 9PM Eastern.

This video isn't parody so much as proof of the enduring brilliance of Leonard Bernstein, the bisexual composer of "West Side Story." (*That* may be MTV's gayest move right there.) Thanks!
