Unreal Trailer Premieres

December 11, 2008 at 4:00 PM | by egw | 1 Comment

It's the fightin' borough! The "Real World: Brooklyn" extended trailer that hit The Internets today shows much conflict but little of its location. Looks like they've hired the Insert Drama Here "Hills" editors to shoot in the house for the series, premiering January 9.

We open with the housemates meeting each other... On the Coney Island boardwalk?! That's nowhere near their Red Hook loft, nor the Manhattan hangouts where the cast was spotted over the past few months. It must have been a pain in the binding contract for the newly arrived, glossy twentysomethings to have to drag their suitcases out to far south Brooklyn for a location shoot. No wonder Red Hook doesn't love them.

Award Show Travel: Katy Perry Is Cakesexual

October 20, 2008 at 8:50 AM | by egw | 1 Comment

Singer Katy Perry attacks a pastry the way she assaulted our ears last summer with her number-one hit at the Premios MTV Latinoamérica last Thursday night.

Perry didn't win any trophies at the seventh annual edition of these video music awards, but she did celebrate the end of her set by jumping into the giant cake. It was probably a rehearsal for the MTV Europe Music Awards in Liverpool, which she's hosting. Yes, even in Liverpool girls kiss girls and like it.

Big winners of the night were Medillin, Colombia singer Juanes (4 awards), German pop outfit Tokio Hotel (3 awards including best ringtone) and Rihanna, who was garlanded best female fashionista.

Overly-Trendy Travel: MTV Teams up with Vueling

May 20, 2008 at 12:01 PM | by pbb | 1 Comment

Spanish LCC Vueling has co-branded two of its A320s with MTV, covering the exteriors with street-inspired art. Inside, the in-flight entertainment systems have been stocked with MTV shows--including "True Life" and "Super Sweet 16"--and some new audio playlists.

The project obviously has a complementary microsite, where there's talk of on-board DJs and parties in Athens, Barcelona, Ibiza and Rome. There's also a newsletter advertised, but you can't seem to sign up for it just yet. Maybe things don't start till later this summer?

While we wait for the extras, the two planes are already flying. One was decked out by Pepa Prieto; the other was done by 3ttMan.
