We announced last week that Beyoncé would be gracing the VMA stage with her "Diva" presence, but we are personally just as excited about Cuban rapper Pitbull participating in the Wale-emceed house band. Pit, along with the All-American Rejects and 3OH!3 will be performing versions of their hit canciones with Wale throughout the VMA espectáculo. We pulled Pitbull aside to ask algunas preguntas about how the whole VMA gig went down and to find out which of the VMA nominees have Mr. 305's stamp of approval. Read the whole thing below!

You're gonna be part of the VMA house band in this year's show. How did that come about, and what can viewers expect to hear from you during the show?
What can be expected is great energy, a good vibe. We going to put it down Dade County style!
What do you think are the chances of Wisin y Yandel winning the VMA for Best Pop video, and do you think they deserve to win?
I really don't know what their chances are, but if they win it's a great victory para todos los Latinos.
Who are you rooting for at the VMAs for Video of the Year?
Lady Gaga, because she has taken the music industry by storm with her distinctive music and style.
What do you have in store for us for your future music videos? Do you think we'll see a Pitbull video nominated for a VMA anytime soon?
I think you will see a Pitbull video nominated in the near future. We will continue to make sexy, sophisticated videos with nothing but the finest, most exotic beautiful women in the world!
Lastly, congrats on being granted the key to Miami! What does that honor mean to you?
It's a blessing and a great honor, especially for someone born and raised in Miami.
