Here’s how MTV chooses who sits where at the VMAs

Have you ever wondered why certain celebrities, rappers, actors, and musicians are placed in certain locations during the MTV VMAs? If so, then we will break it down for you and help explain why certain singers get aisle seats or why certain artists are located towards the front of the show.

In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, Gina Esposito revealed the secrets behind the MTV VMA seating chart and it’s pretty interesting. One of the key parts of the seating charts is that celebs have the chance to send their “dream buddy lists” along with their RSVP, which means Katy Perry can ask to sit next to Rihanna at an award show.

But, at the end of the day MTV chooses where celebrities are going to sit.

“You’re looking at it for camera angles and whose reactions we might capture throughout the night,” she says. “And the logistics that go into that are so insane. You have to be thinking about how long it’s going to take somebody, should they win, to get from the stage back to the dressing room if they’re performing three acts from now.”

However, celebrities will sometimes break the rules and sit wherever they want on the night of the show. Esposito tells Cosmo, “You’ll have artists who rearrange seats in real time so they sit together,” Esposito says, which can cause logistical headaches. “As long as you’ve got eyes on that, to say, ‘Selena Gomez moved so she’s by Taylor, we’re good,’ then it’s all right. If we don’t seat them together, they find their way to each other anyway.”

Ultimately, the goal is to capture real, genuine and sweet reactions.
