Panic at the disco

Music

13:30 01 September 2006

A gatecrasher stole the show at this year's MTV Video Music Awards.

The event - which took place at New York's Radio City Music Hall last night (31.08.06) - took a bizarre turn when Panic at the Disco! collected their trophy for Video of the Year.

A member of the audience jumped on stage, grabbed the microphone from one of the band and tried to snatch the award from presenter Jennifer Lopez.

The intruder - who called himself 'Six' - griped to the crowd: "MTV never gave me my own show."

Once security had carted the man away a flustered J. Lo tried to reassure the audience saying: "That was all planned."

Other highlights included 'King Kong' actor Jack Black - who hosted the show - performing a skit dressed as the famous MTV 'Moon Man' and former jailbird rapper Lil' Kim presenting an award wearing an orange prison uniform, accompanied by men dressed as wardens.

The most cringe-worthy moment of the evening was provided by Britney Spears and husband Kevin Federline - who announced the Best R+B Video winner, in a pre-recorded message.

Kevin asked Britney where his cigarettes were, to which she responded: "If they were up you're a** you'd know" before pretending to have lost their 11-month-old son, Sean Preston.
