Hurricane Katrina threatens preparations for MTV’s Video Music Awards (VMAs) show planned for this weekend, and many of the show’s outdoor pre-parties have already been canceled.

Preparations for the MTV Video Music Awards in Miami on Sunday have been hampered by Hurricane Katrina, which has battered the Florida coast.

Pre-award outdoor parties were scrapped on Thursday and Friday as wind speeds reached 130km/h (80mph) in some areas.

But forecasters expect the skies to clear in time for the ceremony.

Despite the weather, Master of Ceremonies Diddy is expected to host at least six parties during the weekend.
