On August 30, we’ll watch as Miley Cyrus hosts the shit out of the MTV Video Awards (because honestly, you guys: she will, and our lives will be better for it). But in addition to the network’s latest attempt at 2K15 relevance, they’re giving more than just the broadcast itself a facelift — designer Jeremy Scott is making over the iconic Moonman.<\/p>\n

Having been its iconic silver tone since the channel’s inception, the Moonman this year is multicoloured — like the classic TV bars — and is wearing both a peace sign necklace, and a pair of Jeremy Scott sneakers. So yes, the Moonman is now very cool.<\/p>\n

“Why?” Scott was asked by Vogue<\/a> when news of his latest venture broke. “OMG, I cannot think of a reason why not to!”<\/p>\n

“As we are moving in a more online world where fewer people actually watch programming on televisions anymore, I wanted to take it back — way back, old-school style — to TV sets and the colour test bar that would appear at the end of the night when a TV channel would sign-off — if you can even imagine that today.”<\/p>\n

Sadly, the\u00a0Moschino designer’s Moonman will only be around this year, but here’s to the network bridging the gap between music and fashion even more — especially since we all know this year’s host will totally bring it, aesthetic-wise.<\/p>\n
