2005 MTV Video Music Awards

Venue(s) AmericanAirlines Arena, Miami, Florida
Country USA
Host(s) Diddy
Network MTV

The 2005 MTV Video Music Awards aired live on August 28, 2005, honoring the best music videos from July 1, 2004 to June 30, 2005. The show was hosted by Diddy at the AmericanAirlines Arena in Miami, Florida.

Although the approach of a strong tropical storm (which became Hurricane Katrina prior to its first landfall just north of Miami) cancelled much of the pre-show activities, the show itself went on as scheduled after the storm passed. Later that year, the MTV VMAs for Latin America, scheduled for Cancún, were cancelled due to Hurricane Wilma (which later made an identical but reverse path across South Florida as Katrina did).
