Ahhhh Yeah! MTVMusic.com is Alive and Kickin’

Friday, November 7th, 2008

MTVMusic.com launches today and I love it!Anyone who knows me, knows that I love my MTV - have since I was about 14 and I probably always will - yes, the Hills, True Life, all of it really except for TRL (because I’m not 12), Next, and Parental Control. And even though I love the reality programing, I really do miss watching hour upon hour of music videos (and yes, I know MTV2 exists and whatnot, but I just don’t watch triple-digit channels).

Well today MTV launched MTVMusic.com and it has already set my morning back by about 30 minutes! You can watch practically any music video on the new super clean site and comment on the videos directly - and they load pretty quickly which is nice.

Ahh…I feel like all is finally going right in this world: Obama is our President-Elect and MTV is back to being MTV (at least online anyway).

The Bloody Fabulous Hills

Monday, October 13th, 2008

I love the boys at OverthinkingIt.com, and Matt’s latest movie poster is absolutely lovely. If you hate Spencer Pratt, then you’ll enjoy this…

And speaking of The Hills, on tonight’s episode ‘who to choose’ we actually got a little action. Audrina might have finally found herself a good guy, an cute Aussie. He’ll probably last for a week or so and then she’ll be back to bad-for-her Justin Bobby. At least it was better than last week.

And unfortunately, I also watched the damn after-show show thing that MTV insists on airing periodically. First of all, why can’t someone help out the female host? I know MTV has a bunch of stylists so why can’t one of them convince the girl to cut her tranny-looking tresses and slim down her look a little bit? Anyway, the show is just so unnecessary and ridiculous - Stephanie Pratt was on the show to tell the world how great of a human being Spencer really is and how she wants to have her own handbag collection (can you say ‘ew’?). Oh well, there goes yet another 30 minutes of my life I’ll never get back…

The Hills are, um, boring.

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

I’m already bored with The Hills this season. In fact, I almost forgot it was on tonight. Here’s what happened tonight:

Lauren: blah blah blah.
Whitney: nothing, pretty, nothing.
Lo: I wish people liked me! I’m blond too!
Audrina: Please love me Justin Bobby!
Justin Bobby: Whatever, I’m the coolest thing about this show.
Heidi: I’m so torn between a happy, normal life and the biggest loser on Earth!
Holly (Heidi’s annoying sister): Look everyone! I’m the new Stephanie!

90210 Sucks

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

And now I know why I didn’t watch 90210 in middle/high school and why I won’t be watching the new series…

  1. Shenae Grimes is the actress who plays Annie Wilson, who I guess is supposed to be the star of the show. The girl looks more anorexic then Allegra Versace and I’m not particularly fond of her face (that sounds mean, sorry) - she also just seems a little weak to carry the show in general (but that might be from malnutrition). And the thing is, the producers clearly want people talking about her weight - they even show her pushing around a salad the size of a quarter during a cafeteria scene… I’m actually becoming more disgusted with each new scene. Can anyone give this girl a frappuccino, or a donut, or something? Hey! I’ve got a great idea - someone should invite her to a show at the tents, then she could take advantage of the brilliant health booth the CFDA is setting up!
  2. The ‘pig prank’ they had the boys do was totally lifted from a real prank that probably hundred of kids have done, which was also shown in MTV’s new series High School Stories
  3. The overall dialog and plot is crap
  4. And do they wear Forever 21 in Beverly Hills? And what’s with the hair? Stylist, anyone?!

I’ll take The Hills over 90210 any day - seriously, I’d rather watch a full hour of The Hills with Spencer Pratt sitting on his Stephanie’s couch doing nothing but growing out his scraggly beard than sit through another episode of 90210.

The Hills: Season 4 Fashion Musings and More

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

Lauren Conrad wore a dress from Roberto Cavalli\'s Spring 08 Collection to The Hills Season 4 Premiere PartyI’m a Hills fan and tonight I watched both the pre-show special and the premiere episode of season 4.

During the pre-show, Lauren Conrad wore a dress from Roberto Cavalli’s Spring 08 collection and I can’t help but wonder why. I’m sure some of the other girls were wearing dresses from LC’s label, but why did she chose something that isn’t her own, that’s so recognizable, and is now totally on sale? Maybe, that’s it, maybe she just got a great deal! Don’t get me wrong, she looked cute: her hair was put up into some sort of braided beachy up-do and her skin was super bronzed…and the dress looked good…it’s just, well, I guess I expected more from such a major fashionista who’s style is supposedly defining a generation.

Who else? oh yes, Whitney looked pretty (waay better than the last premiere) and Audrina’s hair looked as if she arrived on the backseat of Justin Bobby’s motorcycle sans-helmet.

And as for the episode: 1. Audrina is right - Lo is sort of bitchy. 2. Heidi fades on screen, especially whenever her new Hermes Kelly bag is in the frame. 3. The black nails are back. 4. Lauren is asked on a second date by Doug before their drinks even hit the table. 5. This eason looks waaay better than the last one.

And now a slightly related random thought from my late night TV musings: I love watching Chelsea Lately, but I absolutely hate having to suffer through the Sarah Mclaughlin “in the arms of an angel’ commercial for the ASPCA.

Head over Hills - New Season starts Aug.18th

I love my MTV

Monday, June 16th, 2008

I love MTV. I love all of the awful reality TV. I love The Hills, Made, America’s Next Dance Crew, True Life, etc. And I love love love My Super Sweet 16. I swear I will watch MTV until I die.

Right now MTV is running a My Super Sweet 16 special and Sean Kingston is on celebrating his super 18th birthday. What?! You don’t know who Sean Kingston is? Well, he is the young Jamaican pop singer who sings that absolutely fabulous song ‘Beautiful Girls’ that I first heard while watching The Hills. If you don’t know it - listen to it now.

Speaking of The Hills - Do you love the new commercials that feature awful Spencer & Heidi and Pete Wentz? I do. In fact, they almost make me like Speidi, and that’s scary.

About a month ago I went to an afterparty at 1Oak for some film showing at Tribeca and Spencer & Heidi were there and looking ridiculously blond. They were seated in the corner and there was a huge spotlight beaming down on them. So obnoxious and so bizarre.

I would write more, but a new episode of My Super Sweet 16 just came on…
