After gathering more than five million votes from college students all over the place, the winners of this year's mtvU Woodie Awards will be honored at a ceremony taking place Wednesday, November 12 at New York City's Roseland Ballroom. As you know, in addition to the showering of boner jokes upon oh-so-fortunate artists in categories like "Woodie of the Year", there will be performances from the likes of Lykke Li, Santogold (who is apparently calling herself by her first name, Santi, now? More on that later) and DJ interludes throughout the evening from A-Trak.But what's really caught our attention today is the pair of recently announced collaborations that smack of a lab partner situation gonna horribly awry. Vampire Weekend will be joined by captains of corn Chromeo on the former band's "The Kids Don't Stand a Chance". What's more, the Cool Kids will perform their "Delivery Man" with the "help" of rhyming popped collar Asher Roth, and will join Roth on his own "I Love College".It's true. The kids really don't stand a chance.The ceremony, which also features Kid Sister, Debbie Harry, Moby, Paramore, and others presenting said Woodies, airs on mtvU November 19.
