Katy Perry was denied permission to perform on the Brooklyn Bridge in New York.
The 28-year-old singer is closing the MTV Video Music Awards tonight and was forced to come up with a new plan for her debut performance of her new single "Roar" after city officials refused to approve a permit to allow her to take over the iconic landmark.
"She was supposed to perform on top of the Brooklyn Bridge but the city wouldn't give her the permit," a source said. Katy, whose new single sold 557,000 digital downloads in its first week of release, has now agreed to sing underneath the bridge instead.
Other performers at tonight's ceremony will include Lady Gaga, who will open the show, Miley Cyrus, Robin Thicke, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, as well as Justin Timberlake, who will perform his new track "Take Back The Night" as well as a medley of *NSYNC hits with his old bandmates.

Madonna Performs Gangnam Style

Madonna performed with Psy in New York last night. The "Girl Gone Wild" singer - who is currently on her worldwide MDNA Tour - unveiled the South Korean pop sensation as her special guest at the concert at the city's Madison Square Garden, where they performed a mash-up of her song "Give It To Me" and his cult smash "Gangnam Style." Madonna even performed Psy's "horse" dance - copied by stars including Mel B and Heidi Klum - and at one point crawled between his legs.
The event comes just a week after the 54-year-old star was "rejected" by Lady Gaga when she asked her to sing with her on stage. She told a crowd in Minnesota earlier this month, "I have the best fans in the whole world. So take that, Lady Gaga. You know, I invited her to sing with me on stage but she turned me down. It's OK. I've been rejected before. It's good to build character."

-A surprise Jay-Z performance outside David Letterman’s studio will not happen on Monday. A permit was not granted for the concert by New York City officials.
-A future reunion for Jay-Z’s wife (Beyonce) and the other Destiny’s Child ladies will also not happen. Ex-manager Matthew Knowles squashed all rumors about a performance or an album.

-Please don’t let me be misunderstood. Mary J. Blige will be playing Nina Simone in a movie about the singer’s life. Shooting on Nina will start this fall.
-Sophie B. Hawkins (remember her?) is donating all proceeds from her song “The Land, the Sea and the Sky” to help clean-up efforts in the Gulf area. The song is available on iTunes.
