As the battle for the top spot on the charts continues, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry must put their differences aside and sit next to each other during MTV's Video Music Awards this Sunday (August 25th).

The two singers released new singles earlier this month on the same day, and Gaga's "Applause" is currently trailing behind Perry's "Roar" on the Billboard chats.

The "Firework" beauty's sold 557,000 copies, while the Mother Monster fell short with 218,000 sales.

As previously reported on GossipCenter, Gaga stated that there is no feud between the pop singers, explaining, "Because look, we both just happened to want to put our singles out within a week of each other. And it's not necessarily convenient for everyone and may be a little awkward... But we don't need to force-feed this negativity into it until everyone explodes. I really like Katy Perry, and I like her fans."
