  • Appreciate the post, Gina. Thanks for reading.

  • Thanks for the kind words, Joshua.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Robert.

Hospital Week. that is the best I could come up with. having a catchy name for something is very important. People are so uncreative that almost every scandal over the last forty years has been called blank-gate in honor of the Watergate scandal. that is why Janet Jackson can call her breast “Nipple-gate”.

1319834890 66 Remember when MTV played music?

The following story is an excerpt from chapter one of Craig Marks and Rob Tannenbaum’s new oral history of MTV, “I want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution.”

If viewed as a manufacturing factory churning out teen stars, the Korean pop music industry is streets ahead of the U.S. in its heyday in terms of output, according to a leading U.S. media. “American teen-pop at its peak has never been this productive. K-pop is an environment of relentless newness, both in participants and in style,” the new York Times wrote on Tuesday in an article about Korean entertainment agencies’ ability to foster new talent. the paper ran the story on two pages along with a review of the SM Town Live concert held at Madison Square Garden in new York on Sunday. It said that producing a singer along the likes of Canadian teen Justin Bieber requires the effort and coordination of an army of support staff, including producers, managers, vocal trainers, choreographers and stylists. but Korea now has several entertainment companies that specialize in churning out teen idol groups in various incarnations as it has refined this process.
