Reposted on: 19.9.09 0724.07 | So Courtney Love's taking over MTV2 for a whole day starting Saturday at 8:00 PM. She picks what goes on the channel for the whole day.
I hope this becomes a regular feature on MTV2, where an artist picks what to play for the whole day. | Promote this thread! |             | OlFuzzyBastard

Maybe Courtney will pick that one song by the Distillers, since the lead singer sounds just like her on that song. | Spiraling_Shape

Probably so she can promote her new movie that comes out this weekend. They don`t mention her in the commercials, just Kevin Bacon & Charlize Theron, even though she`s a main character apparently. | DJ FrostyFreeze

Reposted on: 19.9.09 1841.35 | The movie is Trapped. I just saw an ad for it that doesn't involve Courney Love at all, but I checked it out, and yes she is Kevin Bacon's accomplice in the movie.
Ugh.

She was acting? I've always assumed she really WAS a crack whore.
I think that letting an artist pick the programming for a day is a cool idea, but they could have picked someone more interesting than Courtney Love. | Gavintzu

Is this the first time they've had some take over MTV2 all day?

I didn't see that one in years, and that was always one of my favorites.

Reposted on: 23.9.09 2056.11 | VH-1 Classic was having a "We Are the 80's" weekend, so that won out over Ms. Love. I stuck a couple of tapes in and let 'em fly.
That was a cool idea to have someone take over the channel for a day. I had that fantasy many moons ago of being able to take over MTV for 24 hrs and show some good stuff. A full hour of 'Mats and solo stuff. A full hour of Matthew Sweet. They'd never let me do it again.

It's in hour long blocks usually:
The 60's Generation
Rock Fest - 70's & 80's metalish stuff
Pop Show - 80's pop (Michael Jackson, Prince, etc.)
All-Star Jams - Mostly 60's and 70's and mostly live type stuff
We Are the 80's - Just what it says, except it usually shows those videos that MTV showed when it first came on (of course, growing up in the sticks I didn't have MTV so I'm guessing here). Some weird, cool & forgotten shit is usually shown here. Too cool
