Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz Rehearse for VMAs

Lil Wayne traded in his TRUKFIT tee for one of Odd Future’s Golf Wang shirts while rehearsing for the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards at the Staples Center in L.A. on Tuesday. The skateboarding rapper will perform “No Worries,” the second single off his upcoming album I Am Not a Human Being II, live for the first time at Thursday’s show.

Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas was most excited to see Weezy. “I’ve always listened to him,” she told MTV News. “He puts together these amazing lyrics and he’s just awesome.”

First-time performer 2 Chainz will also hit the stage, while other performers include Alicia Keys, Nicki Minaj, Frank Ocean, Pink, Taylor Swift, and Rihanna, who will open the show with A$AP Rocky and Calvin Harris.
