Christina Aguilera and Russell Brand Team Up For MTV

Fresh off of the launch of her new perfume “Inspire”, Christina Aguilera attended the 2008 MTV VMA press conference to announce that she’ll be performing a special rendition of “Genie in a Bottle” as part of the 25th annual VMA’s most memorable performances.

In what’s sure to be a wondrous performance, Christina’s turn at the stage will also mark her first televised performance since giving birth to baby Max earlier this year.

Along with Christina’s big announcement, MTV VMA host Russell Brand went on to reveal that Kanye West will make his return to the VMAs to close the show with an “explosive finale”. Also of note, rapper T.I. told press on-hand that Rihanna and he will be debuting their new duet for the first time ever.

To catch all of the action, be sure to tune in for the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards live from Paramount Pictures on Sunday at 9PM (ET/PT). And count on Gossip Girls to bring you all of the coverage throughout and after the event!
