NEW YORK (AP) - Fatboy Slim received nine MTV Video Music Award nominations Monday for "Weapon of Choice" - a video in which he never appears. Its sole star: actor Christopher Walken, dressed as a businessman who dances around an empty hotel lobby.

Among the leading nine nods it received were for best video and best director (Spike Jonze of "Being John Malkovich" fame). "Lady Marmalade," a "Moulin Rouge" -inspired collaboration featuring Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, Mya and Pink, received six nominations. Also getting six nods were 'N Sync's special effects-laden "Pop" and Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott's dance-oriented "Get Ur Freak On."
"Weapon of Choice" will compete for video of the year honors with "Lady Marmalade," "Get Ur Freak On," Eminem's "Stan," featuring singer Dido, Janet Jackson's "All for You" and U2's "Beautiful Day." Destiny's Child's "Survivor," "Stan" and "U2" each got five nominations, Jackson's "All for You" four. The awards will be presented Sept. 6 in New York.
