Russell Brand will host the 2012 MTV Music Awards
With Russell Brand hosting the popular award show for the major music television network expect the the unexpected. Since his arrival from across the pond Russell Brand has graced the big and small screens with his quirky, offbeat and sometimes awkward brand of humor. There is some child like about the statuesque Russell Brand but his sense of humor has a mature range.
If rumors are to be believed about Russell Brand missing his ex-wife Katy Perry nothing says 'I Want You Back' like a public declaration of love (hint, hint). Whether he surprises viewers with a grandiose romantic gesture or not I expect Russell Brand to charismatically entertaining. The 2012 MTV Movie Awards air June 3rd on MTV at 9PM and Russell Brand s late night show Brand X, premiers June 28th on FX at 11PM.
What's New with Alexz Johnson
I became an instant fan of Instant Star character Jude Harrison back in 2004. The show centered around a teenage girl thrown into the world of fame and trying dynamics of the music industry after to winning a televised talent competition. With each season you witnessed the progression of the Instant Star characters and music as Jude grew into her new found stardom and fought to remain on top while being true to her identity as an artist.
When the show ended four years later Alexz Johnson took the opportunity to focus on music she had more creative control over while continuing to have guest appearance roles on the small screen. The young musician and actress has experienced the full gamut of the entertainment business including movie roles, getting a major record deal, losing a major record deal and having to release album and fund-raise for her tours in 2 countries as an independent artist.
Johnson garnered serious attention when she raised over $67,000 using the online creative project funding platform Kickstarter to financial back the US leg of her tour. The driven 25 year old Canadian released her latest album Skipping Stone in march including an under $300 music video on serious budget. The album evokes the emotional openness that Alexz executes musically so well and is a testament to how impressive Johnson s focus is. She is also in a horror movie slated for release next year called House of Bodies. The movie cast includes Peter Fonda, Queen Latifah and Terrance Howard and film is produced by Queen Latifah s production company Flavor Unit Entertainment.
