Lady Gaga 'Delighted' To Compete With Beyonce At VMAs

08/11/2009

Lady Gaga isn't afraid to go head-to-head with Beyoncé at this year's Video Music Awards. In fact, the singer can't wait to see what happens when she and B compete against one another for the coveted Moonmen in September. "So excited! I can't believe it," the nine-time nominee told reporters in Seoul, South Korea, where she was in town for her Fame Ball tour. "I'm delighted to be in Beyoncé's company, and I can't wait to go to the awards show and hopefully kick some ass."

But before she can kick some of that aforementioned behind, Gaga will be busy hitting the road on her tour. And the sequined performer couldn't be more excited about all the accolades and success she's been having lately. "I've been having such an amazing time. I mean, I feel so blessed that I can do the Fame Ball around the world," she said. "We just did the Summer Sonic Festival in Japan — in Tokyo and Osaka — and now we're here in Korea. And I'm going to do the Fame Ball for my fans tonight, and I just love them so much." But once Gaga puts the Fame Ball away for good, she'll be back on the road again. And this time, she has an equally famous and interesting partner to join the Haus of Gaga. That lucky guy is Kanye West. "It's been fun to work on the design of the tour with him. We're finishing each other's sentences," she said about the guy she once joked she was married to. "It's going to be one of the most groundbreaking moments in touring history. I am sure of it." The 2009 MTV Video Music Awards will take place September 13 at 9 p.m. ET. Nominees, celebrity presenters and additional performers will be announced in the coming weeks.
