MTV News' Kurt Loder, John Norris, SuChin Pak, Sway Calloway, and Gideon Yago provide live coverage of one of the biggest nights in television: MTV's 22nd annual VMAs live from AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami.

MTV News is rolling out the white carpet at this year's star-studded event, with a glimpse into all the pre-show action, including:

* Punk-emo faves and 2005 VMA nominees Fall Out Boy will perform their hit single (and TRL staple) Sugar We're Going Down;

* To honor a year in which the revered Houston hip hop scene finally got national attention, the three biggest rappers from H-Town, and 2005 VMA nominees, Mike Jones, Paul Wall and Slim Thug, will perform the song that brought the "chopped & screwed" sound to the masses: Still Tippin.

* Caribbean breakout star Rihanna will perform her summer smash hit, Pon De Replay.

* "New Music Exclusives," with first looks or listens to new songs and music videos from My Chemical Romance, Green Day, Missy Elliott, and Ricky Martin.

* Like last year, the music world's hottest artists will be making their grand entrances via yachts ... but to add to the excitement, this year, some celebs will also be showing up in their very own tricked-out rides -- in a "car show" like no one has ever seen!

MTV News exclusive post-show coverage, immediately following the "2005 MTV Video Music Awards," will include interviews with the night's big winners, plus celebrity guests, reactions to the show, favorite VMA moments, and all the latest backstage updates.
