[How Do You Do?]

I'd love to see Shakira win all of those awards. I'm really excited to see all of these performances.

And I would assume that MTV2 will move their show ahead to Wednesday since they are planning on broadcasting live.

I think this is gonna be the year for Shakira and Juanes, actually it is gonna be the Colombian year for at this awards, too bad they had to cancel the show because of the huracane.

MTV puts off Latin awards in fear of huge hurricane

PLAYA DEL CARMEN, Mexico (Reuters) - MTV put off its Latin American music-video awards ceremony on Mexico's Caribbean coast on Wednesday because of Hurricane Wilma, the second time this year the weather has hit one of its shows.

Wilma, the strongest hurricane in terms of barometric pressure ever recorded in the Atlantic, is due to brush past the resort town of Playa del Carmen where MTV's Video Music Awards Latin America 2005 were to be held on Wednesday.

"While the eye of the storm is not expected to hit the Mexican Caribbean, we feel its effect is close enough to greatly impact our production," MTV said in a statement.

MTV had previously advanced the show by a day from Thursday, but then said it was postponing the ceremony indefinitely.

Wilma packed maximum sustained winds near 175 mph (280 kph), making it a potentially catastrophic Category 5 storm.

Hurricane Katrina had put a damper on pre-ceremony festivities at the MTV Video Music Awards in August as it hurled rain and wind at Miami on the way to New Orleans, although the main event was not interrupted.

Colombian pop star Shakira was set to sweep the Latin American awards with six nominations, including Best Female Artist.

Fellow Colombian Juanes, Argentine electro-pop group Miranda! and Mexican rockers Molotov have also received several nominations each.

[How Do You Do?]

So, do you think they will re-schedule or just announce the winners?

[tortuga]

Molotov kicks ass!

and Julieta V is a pop artist now? Her "Si" album had something to do with that.

[Purple Dreams]

Were they re-scheduled or postponed?

[Hacorzo]

They havent decided yet if it will be postponed or cancelled.

[Purple Dreams]

Thanks, Hacorzo.

MTV cancels Latin awards in Mexico after hurricane Wed Nov 16, 5:33 PM ET



CANCUN, Mexico (Reuters) - MTV canceled plans on Wednesday to stage its Latin American music-video awards ceremony on Mexico's Caribbean coast after Hurricane Wilma battered the area.

The show was first postponed just hours before it was scheduled to start near the beach resort of Playa del Carmen on October 19 as Wilma's ferocious winds and rains lashed the coast.

MTV said then it still hoped to hold the 2005 awards on Mexico's "Maya Riviera," but gave up the effort on Wednesday.

"A show of this magnitude and complexity requires a great deal of planning and many months to organize, making it impossible for us to accomplish in only six weeks," it said in a statement.

Wilma caused major damage to hotels, beaches, stores and homes along the Caribbean coast and a month later the huge resort of Cancun is virtually empty.

Tourism industry chiefs hope to have Cancun up and running again by mid-December but it is still in a sorry state with beaches stripped of sand, hotel windows knocked out and its palm trees toppled or stripped bare.

Playa del Carmen is in better shape but the Xcaret theme park where the MTV event was to be held is still closed.

The 2005 awards will now be announced on a TV show in December and MTV said it would explore possibilities of holding next year's event somewhere on Mexico's Caribbean coast.

Colombian pop star Shakira was expected to sweep the awards with several nominations, including Best Female Artist.
