Hurricane Wilma Causes Cancellation of MTV Latin Video Awards
MEXICO CITY - In what is easily the least tragic hurricane-related news story of the year, the approach of Hurricane Wilma has forced MTV to postpone the MTV Video Music Awards Latin America.
The Awards Show had been scheduled take place Thursday at the Playa del Carmen resort. The hurricane is forecast to pass close by Mexico's Caribbean coast on Friday.
MTV's Mexico spokeswoman Dulce Gordillo confirmed that the program had been postponed until a still-unspecified date.
"We are still looking for a date when George Lopez won't be available to host," said Gordillo.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center said Wednesday that the storm had developed into the most intense hurricane on record. It was already the most intense hurricane ever named for a Flintstones character, eclipsing 1982's infamous Hurricane Pebbles.
