In all seriousness I had all intentions of featuring someone with serious social influence this friday but, if you watch my UStream last night then you know what happened. I was doing the “I love the 90s” episode of throwback thursday and I played the video below to close the show. I then realized I would probably follow @MissMya anywhere. And so would you…

Lesson of the day: “Have an affair, act like an adult for once.”
This show was so ahead of it’s time it’s not even fair. I recall staying up late to catch MTV’s Undressed at around midnight when I was in grade school and high school because the show was just that damn good. It did it’s best to portray every type of relationship possible and in my opinion they did a pretty damn good job (6 seasons worth of a damn good job). And inevitably someone always got undressed.
Watch all six seasons of my 2nd favorite scripted MTV show here. (I think I’ll post my first next week)
Lesson of the day:Adam Brody did undressed before the OC was even a drunk thought at an over-priced club on Sunset.
I read the (entertainment) news. Alot. And I hate to say it but, today I haven’t found anything particularly newsworthy enough to cover. I’m not into gossip and/or really sensationalized or over-covered stories (Kate Goselin sit down). I don’t care that Kate Hudson is probably poking holes in A-rod’s condoms as we speak. And as much as I like Drake and Songz on “Successful” no one has done a good job at a “making of” video since MTV’s show Making the Video. It’s actually one thing on a long list of things I wish MTV still had around but, I digress. So…if you came here looking for coverage on any of those things today I am happy to disappoint you and leave you with this classic to enjoy while you google search the topics above.

Lesson of the day: Brownie points to anyone who guessed the video just from the picture.
So apparently @Wyclef was in the studio this weekend laying down some new tracks and rumor has it that he was lending his fined tuned ear to @Moo88 of French Exit. Sadly enough I was only given one full track from the session and to get that I had to promise I wouldn’t leak it. So…I’m leaking a snippet…sue me. Seriously though, don’t. This is dedicated to all my @RosaAcosta’s of the world:
Feature Presentation – Moruf ft. Evin Bangs
[audio:Feature_Presentation_Snippet]
Lesson of the day: French Exit is one of the more interesting hush projects I’ve seen in a while.
Stacey Dash. Need I say more. Watch Clueless or the All Falls Down video or hey just type her name in google image search and fall in love all over again. Hey Complex, Mila Jovovich is cool but, this woman deserves Wifey Hall of Fame status. Follow her @REALStaceyDash
Lesson of the day: If you want to know what I said you’ll have to follow me too @iwyk
If you are in 20-30 year old age range I can just about guarantee that you saw the post title and the picture and immediately became excited. According to one of my favorite sites, FirstShowing.net, the Jim Henson company is back up and running and the Fraggle Rock Movie that was shelved years ago is back on the slate and inches away from pre-production stages.
Here’s the highlight from Brian Henson’s (Jim Henson’s son) talk with MTV’s Adam Rosenberg:
First up, the Fraggle Rock movie is “still in very active development. Very active development. That has a very strong script.” He also adds: “It’ll have a strong musical component. It’ll be expanded to an older audience. Fraggle Rock [the TV show] was presented… for a pretty exclusively children’s audience. The feature film does expand it to be more accessible to a wider audience.”
And here is one of the best opening songs of all time:

Lesson of the day: Dance your cares away, worry’s for another day. Let the music play, down at Fraggle Rock.
If you hadn’t heard already, Mr. Brown went to court today for execution a hearing of sorts and Rihanna’s lawyer showed to request (on Rihanna’s behalf of course) that the restraining order be dropped to less strict “Level 1″ order of protection. For those of you not as well versed with restraining orders as I am, that means that there will be no distance restriction between the two and that Rihanna can pretty much play the “I’m not touching you, but my hand is dangerously close to your face game.” Everyone knows it’s only a matter of time before they get back together and then implode again. They are the bizarro version of Jay and Bey in my book. Or the young version of Mike and Robin depending on how you look at it. Who knows, this could be them in a few short years:
