Celebrity Buzz If you've been looking for Internet sensation Debra, she's been hanging out backstage at MTV, talking sh*t about Kim Kardashian and Kristin Cavallari. Meanwhile, outside MTV's Times Square studio, the dummy dum dums were in fine form, lending their opinion on Kim Kardashian's fashion faux pas. IMPORTANT!
After winning a VMA for best female video, Taylor Swift's acceptance speech is interrupted by the always classy Kanye West, who thinks that Beyonce should have one it instead.
TV Buzz MTV's newest cartoon is an homage to the music video-mocking idiots Beavis and Butthead, but without the music videos. Instead, cubicle dwellers DJ & The Fro commentate on the latest viral videos. In my eyes only The Soup can discuss Keyboard Cat and the like, but with all these new web-based shows, only time will tell.
MTV and Belgian ad agency Duval Guillaume are pushing this pair of provocative ads encouraging safe sex. The ads also serve as a timely reminder that it's generally not a good idea to allow sexual partners to sign their names above your genitals. Because it makes you look like a slut.
Movie Buzz Comic heartthrobs Andy “Barry” Samberg and Will “Eagleheart” Arnett go tete-a-tete in this parody for the MTV Movie Awards. Plus, we'd never complain about seeing Andy Samberg sleeveless. That just wouldn't be natural.
TV Buzz The former British model will host MTV's new TRL-ish show (along with a bunch of kids on Twitter). Social network stuff aside, it feels like the kids are getting a better deal with this one than we did with Carson Daly.
TV Buzz After Comedy Central slashed the budget of The Sarah Silverman Program, the show's future looked bleak until MTV Networks' gay channel, Logo, agreed to co-finance the show. Finally, someone actually funny (although Buzzfeed readers don't necessarily agree) might dethrone Kathy Griffin as the queen of gay comedy. …Maybe. …Okay, doubtful, but a boy can dream.
MTV Brazil is rocking some retro-porn for their new AIDS-awareness print campaign. The copy says “Except for AIDS, nothing has changed.” So keep that in mind next time you find yourself in the midst of a crazy-ass Victorian threesome.
TV Buzz Whitney Port's co-workers are complaining about her and her scripted show before it even debuts. Port only “sorta-works” at Diane von Furstenberg and immediately leaves as soon as her scenes are finished. The Hills NYC spinoff also looks nothing like New York, say critics, and somehow the show is even less eventful than its LA counterpart. All this will likely add up to a mega-hit for MTV and an onslaught of “The City” tour buses around New York.
TV Buzz It's official: MTV is giving the fratty geeks at College Humor their own TV show, to debut on February 8, 2009. The show will focus on the College Humor office, meaning it will basically be a string of their “Hardly Working” shorts with lush, Hills-like cinematography. Maybe Whitney Port will make a cross-promotional cameo!

Supposedly one of the 850 layoffs at Viacom today belongs to MTV “correspondent-for-life,” John Norris.

The Internet voters have spoken, and (surprise, surprise), it looks like Rick Astley is ahead in the polls for MTV Europe’s “Best Act Ever” award. Rick is going to be performing not one, but two songs - apparently he has another one. Be careful what links you click in relation to this story.
Tech Buzz If you gave up looking for music videos on MTV fifteen years ago, you’re in luck: the network has launched a portal that exclusively plays…wait for it…music videos! Days since MTV launched anything that didn’t involve Audrina’s deadened gaze: 1.
Here’s a sneak peak at the new MTV documentary, “For The Record,” that gives a behind-the-scenes look into Spear’s whacked-out life. Cameras followed Brit for three months to get footage, which wasn’t even enough time for Britney to answer her self-imposed question, “What the hell was I thinking?”
TV Buzz The MTV show — which has suffered increasingly sagging ratings — will end its 10-year-run in November, when it will air a two-hour special on a Saturday afternoon. Now where will screaming teenage girls catch a glimpse of The Jonas Brothers? Oh, right — everywhere.
On last night’s VMA’s, Christina Aguilera “re-interpreted” her first smash, “Genie In A Bottle,” before introducing her new single, “Keeps Gettin’ Better.” Now that she’s no longer vaguely a pin-up girl, it looks like Xtina is embracing the next natural progression: electropop trannie from outer space.
Movie Buzz MTV — the same network that made bisexuality the basis for a game show — is remaking the 1975 cult classic. If Chris Crocker ends up as the “sweet transvestite,” we’re totally boycotting. (Oh, who are we kidding? We’re so watching.)
Last night MTV debuted the first political ad to ever air on the station. The ad attacks Obama, charging that he is “worse than a flip-flopper.” I hope Obama has an MTV ad response. Crappy reality TV and political ads, together at last.
TV Buzz The pseudo-famous skank was rejected by Kristy Morgan, a former Playboy model who couldn’t accept Tila’s “key,” a.k.a. “the opportunity to prove that Tila is so totally bi [on camera].” Tila posted a poem (in real time!) on her MySpace blog, where she dejectedly wrote that “the world will still die.” First she helps establish gay marriage in California and now she references global warming? At this rate, “President Tequila” might be able to teach Dubya a thing or two.
Music Buzz After many years of safe-guarding their song catalog, surviving Beatles Paul and Ringo, and the widowed Olivia Harrison and Yoko Ono Lennon, are in talks concerning broader licensing. The two principal companies involved are MTV and Activision, respective makers of the video games Rock Band and Guitar Hero. The agreement would mark a major milestone given the group’s reluctance to exploit their music commercially. People get old, ideological fervor fades…and, hey, it really wouldn’t be that bad if we could all rock out to “Octopus’s Garden” now would it?
