[livejournal.com profile] fox1013, YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS. I would not normally tell you to watch something bandom related -- unless it was made of puppies and sunshine -- except that this was clearly made for me to show you. It is Cobra Starship style Real World.



(if the embedded file doesn't work, clicking on it will take you to the MTV Overdrive page. WTF MTV.)

I may have laughed my head off at this and the dust bunnies and the pregnancy and the Nate intervention. And...at all of it, really. Man, I cannot even tell you how much money I would pay for a Cobra Starship reality show.

More here: http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?id=1578682&vid=201028 - link totally gacked from [livejournal.com profile] prettykitty_aya.

Alex Suarez = The Hotness.

Cobra Starship recorded snippets of a fake Real World for MTV. In the clip I put up, the band had to explain to Alex that he was not Asian and thus not in the house as their token Asian guy. I think my favorite part of it was when he leaned forward and was like, "So you don't need a token Asian guy?" and Ryland said, "It wouldn't matter if we did because you're not Asian! I feel crazy talking to you right now!"

There was also a clip where Gabe came in with a pregnancy test that was positive; where Nate killed Gabe's goldfish Monty; and acoustic performances of Guilty Pleasure, The City Is At War, and The World Has Its Shinne while they were standing in the middle of a field. If I could have figure out how to rip them, I would have.

Stupid, stupid MTV.
