Sure Twilight was a great movie but I got to thinking (watch out world!) that maybe it was time for a vampire in America with a little more true grit. That’s why I produced “I Am Vampire.” Would Robert Pattinson or his alter ego Edward Cullen make it in the big apple? Maybe someday we’ll see “Edward Moves to the City” until then, check out “I Am Vampire.”
shot entirely on location in New York and Las Vegas Nevada and utilizing a “run and gun” style of film making made this vampire real and accessible. I filmed, edited and directed the video and wrote and produced the music, in other words, I did everything you will see and hear.
Enjoy “I Am Vampire” an urban Twilight for the rest of us city dwellers.
VH1 is in crisis. Their cashcow, 51 Minds Entertainment, is under heavy fire after one of the contestants it hired for Megan Wants a Millionaire, Ryan Jenkins, brutally killed his ex-wife and went on the run, eventually committing suicide in Canada. Needless to say, the screening process and overall procedure of the network and its favorite production company is being overlooked.
Tom Calderone, president of VH1, knows that things are going to have to change and is willing to spearhead the movement. He told The LA Times that the network is sitting down with 51 Minds to “fix this problem and never ever let this happen again.” He also said that VH1 might not rely so heavily on the production company, which provided VH1 with The Surreal Life, Flavor of Love, Rock of Love and many more.
“We always want 51 Minds to be part of our arsenal and stable of creativity,” Calderone said. “But the only way VH1 will survive and be healthy is to have several different voices and production partners.”
What do you folks think? Is VH1’s go-to genre a bit old now? Are you sick of seeing the umpteenth version of the same show? Should VH1 focus more on music-oriented programs or stick to the reality TV genre?
That’s Jessica Simpson you see there, looking like a traditional geisha. Why would the American-born, blonde bombshell be dressed like this you may ask. Well, she’s doing it for — what else? – a TV show. The show, The Price of Fame, apparently required the singer/actress to spend hours getting into costume before she took to the streets of Japan. Not sure what she did on the street, aside from probably butcher the Japanese language.
Hello Magazine reports that the kimono cost upwards of $10,000! Let’s hope the show is worth it.
Bret Michaels was involved in a huge car wreck this weekend and I’m not talking about Rock of Love — Hey-yo! Sorry, that was funnier in my head.
Michaels’ bus was driving along a Canadian highway when a car “lost control and slid into the side of Mr. Michaels’ tour bus causing a five car pile-up on the roadway.” Holy cow, a five car pile-up? That’s pretty intense.
Luckily, no one was hurt too badly and Michaels and his bus were able to leave after an investigation.
A part of me wishes the Rock of Love girls were on the bus at the time. That would just be good television.
MTV is taking a second chance on Jessica Simpson giving her a new reality show to air on VH1 in 2010. This time around, Simpson will travel the planet examining local fashion trends and get this, dietary habits. Entitled, “The Price Of Beauty” lucky viewers will get a chance to ride along with Simpson as she studies global culture from what folks eat to what they wear.
Interesting that MTV would choose Simpson given the fact she’s famous for wearing daisy dukes (and more recently Muu-Muus) and infamously declaring that she believed “chicken of the sea” was some kind of oceanic foul.
Personally I don’t think the subject matter will matter much at all, Jessica is the draw. I’m just happy the ever-entertaining blond bombshell is back on the tube! What do you think?
Things are really heating up at Hulk Hogan and Linda Hogan’s divorce hearings. TMZ reports The Hulkster is claiming his ex-wife is spending her temporary alimony cash on drugs. He’s even got witnesses testifying on his behalf.
A hairdresser claims Linda is cashing her checks for buying pot and painkillers. Also, a truck driver claimed he saw Linda doing coke. These people are under oath and speaking to a judge. Yikes!
She’s getting $40,000 a month from Hulk but that may change after this damning testimony. But who knows the truth? Maybe the witnesses are fibbing. I know I would lie for Hulk Hogan, that guy could rip me in two.
Ok! Magazine has found out that VH1’s reality melodrama, Tough Love will indeed be coming back for a second season. I am submitting my application as I type this post! But I don’t need to find out why I’m single, I just want to date the host, Steven Ward, what a major babe.
VH1’s “Storytellers” showcased rapper Kanye West and his ability to never shut up.
The taping of the show went on a nerve dragging 3 hours and only 90 minutes of that will ever be aired, however, that is 30 minutes longer than every other episode of “Storytellers”.
Executive producer Bill Flanagan politely told Reuters, “Some of West’s choicer comments ended up on the cutting room floor, but there’s no political conspiracy afoot.” “A lot of the stories that Kanye told went long, I tried to get to the essence of his comments.”
And what about Kanye’s comments? One was that the public should give Chris Brown “a break,” “Can’t we give Chris a break? … I know I make mistakes in life.” On the other side of the coin, it seems West has a problem with Radiohead’s Tom Yorke, claiming Yorke Snubbed him.
Apparently, it was at the Grammys West felt like Yorke did not pay him enough respect. So what was West’s payback? “When he [Yorke] performed at the Grammys, I sat the f— down,” West said.
