There's some bad news and some good news from 5 Seconds of Summer. First, the bad news: they've canceled more tour dates opening for One Direction. So, if you're planning to see 5SOS with 1D in St. Louis or Dallas, you're out of luck (boo).
The good news? 5SOS landed an amazing gig. We know what you're thinking – better than being the opening act for One Direction? They'll be performing at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards on August 24, which is such a huge deal and will get them even more exposure. It's a good thing.
We know it's a bit bittersweet though for those 5SOS fans that were planning to see the guys at one of those dates, but trust us, the MTV gig is a huge get. We're so proud. Sniffle.
The band tweeted the exciting news, writing: "HELLO, we have some awesome news to tell you....
were performing at the @MTV VMAs in August! to be asked & given this opportunity's incredible, we cant be more excited about it :D #5SOSVMAs"
They added: "this means we need to cancel our #WWAT supports in Dallas & St Louis :( were sorry if u were hoping to see us but we'll have more news soon!"
