7 Potentially Awkward Moments That Could Happen at the VMAs

Listen, Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj may have resolved their little feud over nominations, but we could foresee a little tension. Plus, let's not forget that Miley Cyrus made some pretty blunt comments about the whole thing, and Nicki has yet to respond. Miley's hosting the show. Nicki's opening it. This could get real.

The executive producers of this year's show, Van Toffler and Garrett English, slyly alluded to the possibility that Taylor Swift could present Kanye West with his video vanguard award. Seeing as Kanye infamously jacked the mic from Taylor in 2009, it's the perfect chance for Tay to make things right — in whatever way she sees fit.

Remember back in April, when Justin hugged Ariana Grande on stage, and then Big Sean tweeted some vaguely threatening things about it? We're curious how it'll be when they're this close to each other.

Miley Cyrus didn't really hold back when she vocalized her thoughts on Taylor Swift's video for "Bad Blood" recently. We have to wonder what it'll be like when the two are face to face.

Having your whole pack all in one place: what could better breed whispers and gossip? We can already spot Gigi Hadid and Nick Jonas, and we can definitely picture the group's collective side-eye.

Katy Perry's not slated to perform or attend. She's not nominated, either. But she did go last year. Seeing as her feud with Taylor Swift is hotter than ever, Katy's attendance would certainly shake things up.

There's nothing inherently wrong here, it's just that there are going to be a lot of random guests, and we have no idea what will happen when all these big personalities combine. Sit back and watch the fireworks!
