Gwen Stefani

The New York Daily News is reporting that Gwen Stefani will boycott the MTV Video Music Awards on Aug. 28 because she wasn't invited to perform. Producers of the Miami ceremony are hoping that the multiple nominee will change her mind. "We love Gwen and we hope she will be able to join us, as we know her fans would love to see her on this big night – especially since she's heavily nominated," an MTV rep told the paper.

My elevator told me she was boycotting because she only won 2 awards last year.

I used to love her, but I think she has become such a prima donna.

Contrary to a story in Page Six, Gwen Stefani is not boycotting the MTV Video Awards at all, and calls last years snubbing rumors "complete fiction."

"It's not true at all," publicist Dave Tomberlin told The ShowBuzz via email.

The Video Music Awards will be held Thursday night in New York City, where Stefani happens to be staying.

On Monday, she attended the U.S. Open's kick-off festivities with her 3-month-old son, Kingston, but she plans to bypass this year's VMAs, according Tomberlin.

"Gwen is indeed in N.Y. prepping for Fashion Week," he said.

So what is keep Stefani from attending. She's concentrating on the upcoming New York Fashion Week, where she's going to be showing off her new line of luxury handbags she designed with SportSac creator, Tim Schifter.
