If you missed our Backstage Special last night because you were out cruisin’ in the sunshine, do not worry: we’ve got it up on our video player, just for you.

Check out this cool three-part look at the behind the scenes of MMVAs 2009. Our directors worry about the rain, our VJs worry about remembering their lines, our writers worry about what the Jonas Brothers won’t say on TV, and pretty much everyone worries about what Lady Gaga’s gonna wear.

It’s actually kinda hilarious: Watch the whole thing here!

Perez Hilton Talks To Much About Will.I.Am Incident

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

Today (June 23) on MuchOnDemand Perez Hilton chatted with Sarah Taylor live via webcam for his first on-camera discussion about his altercation with will.i.am’s tour manager Polo Molina. He responded to will.i.am’s video response to the accusations, addressed taking the matter to court and reacts to Kelly Clarkson’s statement about the events (watch Kelly here).

If you’ve been living under a rock, Perez Hilton and will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas got into a verbal argument during an afterparty for the MuchMusic Video Awards that escalated to violence when Polo Molina allegedly punched Perez in the face.

Who knew that it would be the Black Eyed Peas to have beef with Perez (and vice versa) at the MMVAs this year?!

Click here to watch the MuchOnDemand interview on June 23.

MMVA Gift Lounge

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

This is the part where we all wish we were an A-Lister. Jeez, even an F-Lister would do, cause all MMVA performers and guests will be swooped into the Gift Lounge to pick out some free swag! The awesome part about this is that all celebs will sign one of the gift bags, which will later be auctioned to raise money for the Christmas Wish.

See what lavish goods will be found in the Gift Lounge after the jump!

Last year Ellie wrote a live blog from the wristband line-up (read it here), and she’s back to report her shenanigans from the maniacal camp-out that took place last weekend! But enough about me writing in italics, and more about Ellie & Co…

6:45pm
The line is being moved. Ugh! Haha kind of funny to see the panicking and running Jonas fans trying to save their spot in line. Kind of thinking we are waay to old to be here.
