No Cameras Allowed

There are no cameras allowed at the MTV European Music Awards show tonight. So if I'm sitting next to Nelly Furtado (one of the few A-listers scheduled to attend), I guess you'll have to take my word for it. "Take my word for it." Now that I typed it, the phrase sounds odd. Just like one of those words that, once you repeat it over and over again, doesn't seem correct.
