The meme-barons at BuzzFeed were treated to a tour of the Staples Center in Los Angeles yesterday, where the MTV Video Music Awards will take place tomorrow evening at 8pm EST.

The stars of popular music will certainly be out in full force tomorrow, as can be seen in the snapshots BuzzFeed took of the VMA celebrity seating charts. Depending on who you’re seated beside, these award shows have the potential to be hella-awkward when you’re one of the beautiful people.

We’re veritable social butterflies here at Pop Hunter, so we decided to give these seating charts a gander, and provide some cordial icebreakers for any potentially awkward pairings.
