Once again I am at the TCAs and today is Viacom’s cable day, so I am live blogging what MTV has coming up so if it seems it is out of order that is why!
DJ AM is coming to MTV with a new show called Gone Too Far which is about 18-25 year olds who are the end of their drug ropes and he is going to try to help them get sober. DJ AM has been sober for 11 years and he said that he is able to remain clean by helping others.
When he was asked about his drug use, he said he was the only 300 pound crack addict. One day he realized that he had Gone Too Far and sought the help he needed and now he is allergic to the drugs and alcohol that once controlled his life. He feels he had a second chance and now he is taking that chance to help others get their.
Starting on October 5th MTV will 8 one hour episodes of incredible stories of people who desperately need help and finally get it. These 18-25s and the people who love them will be the focus of the show and even though this is not an easy show to watch, it should be watched by everyone. It will be real and DJ AM says there is at least one person he is not sure he will remain sober. Intense, but important viewing!
From the serious side of drugs to a lighter note, MTV will also be airing a feel good show about 4 guys who made a list of 100 things to do before they die. So they got in a purple bus in their hometown of Vancouver, BC and now they are driving Canada and US and live out those dreams. Number 54 was to get a TV show and they did it. They have been doing good by helping kids in South Central to get computers. One they haven’t done is told a joke on Late Night TV, so I making a plea to my favorite Late Night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! to let them do that dream on their list on the show.
BTW you can see in the trailer that all 4 guys are eye candy. But what you might not see is not only are they hot, they are just super cool guys that you want in your living rooms. So when MTV airs this show make sure to catch it!!!
Ryan Seacrest just Tweeted that Russell Brand was actually asked to host the MTV VMAs again. Did they forget how much his gig was panned last year? He is so 2008. Seriously what has he done here in The States since then? Nothing. What happened Pauly Shore wasn't available? Out of all the people out there, I am sure there had to be a better person than him to do the show. The only reason the ratings were so high is because everyone wanted to see if Britney Spears had really cleaned up her act and not for him.
If it were up to me to pick the host, I would've chosen Aziz Ansari. Now that guy is freakin' funny!!!
On May 22nd Cheryl Burke was seen in a Herve Leger mini dress with suntan inserts and since then Heather Graham, Kristin Cavalleri and now Heidi Montag have all been seen wearing it too. So now that you have seen it on the 4 different women, rate who looks the best in it…
I say:
1 – Heather Graham
2 – Cheryl Bukre
3 – Kristin Cavalleri
4 – Heidi Montag
BTW if you want to own that popular dress, it only costs $1,900. That is $1,850 more than I would spend on it.
Just when you thought that John Stamos’ hotness was only appreciated by those who walk on two legs, thanks to VH1’s Free Radio we are able to learn that even those who walk on 4 legs understand what we have been saying for all these years! Granted they have to go on two legs to show it! I would say poor John, but it doesn’t take a b!tch to know that is one prime piece of meat that should be shared by all!!!
BTW you can see more hilarity on VH1’s Free Radio every Thursday at 10p!!!
I guess VH1 has run out of rejected contestants from their reality dating shows to give a show to, so they are giving one to Fantasia. The show will follow her life as a recording artist and single mom according to The Live Feed.
Luckily for Fantasia the show is UNscripted!
