" It&amp;#039;s the VMAs this Sunday, and we&amp;#039;re already super-excited about it. Mainly because last year it brought us Miley&amp;#039;s twerking, and it&amp;#039;s got a bit of a reputation for being one of the most entertaining awards ceremonies around. But Rita Ora and Iggy Azalea are also upping the anticipation for Sunday night&amp;#039;s events, letting us in to some snippets of their preparation for the joint performance they&amp;#039;ll be doing.        A photo posted by Rita Ora (@ritaora) on Aug 21, 2014 at 8:35pm PDT     Rita posted a series of photos to her Instagram account, showing the pair practicing Iggy&amp;#039;s song Black Widow in rehearsals. So we&amp;#039;re hoping this means the performance is definitely going ahead, unlike Rita&amp;#039;s Teen Choice Awards performance, which went down the pan after ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris failed to give consent for her to sing her planned song, which was written and produced by him. Ouch.  Iggy is nominated for a hefty seven awards this year, including &amp;#039;video of the year&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;best collaboration&amp;#039; for her song Problem with Ariana Grande. The ceremony will take place at the Forum in Inglewood, California, and will be shown on MTV over here at 8pm on Monday 25th August. Rumoured to be joining Rita and Iggy in the performance line-up is Jessie J, who will be opening the event singing her amazing new collaboration with Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, Bang Bang. Beyonc\u00E9, Taylor Swift and our very own Sam Smith are also due to perform at the awards. And with Kim Kardashian, Lorde, Gwen Stefani and Demi Lovato all in place to present awards, we just can&amp;#039;t wait to see what events will unfold. Keep your eyes peeled on Cosmo.co.uk on Sunday and Monday for all our VMA coverage... "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
