Operation MySpace launched: an exclusive concert live from the Middle East for American troops

March 3, 2023 By Dennis Bouchand

MySpace, in cooperation with the Department of Defense’s Armed Forces Entertainment and America Supports You program, announced the launch of Operation MySpace, a landmark concert event designed to bring troops serving in Kuwait a taste of home and enable the MySpace community to show their support for troops serving overseas.

On March 10, MySpace Co-Founders Tom Anderson and Chris DeWolfe, along with some of today’s most popular musical acts, will participate in a 3-hour plus MySpaceLive! concert in Kuwait that will be streamed in high definition flash video using Kulabyte’s XStream Live Solutions exclusively on the official Operation MySpace profile. The MySpace community can watch the entire concert webcast starting at 11a.m. PT/ 2 p.m. ET.

Operation MySpace will be the largest MySpaceLive! concert to date with performances by the Pussycat Dolls, Jessica Simpson, Disturbed, Filter, DJ Z-Trip and Carlos Mencia.

Starting today, the Operation MySpace profile (http://myspace.com/operationmyspace) will serve as a communication hub where troops’ families and friends, along with the entire MySpace community, can post videos and messages of support via a video blog section. The profile will also feature a scrolling ticker of goodwill messages uploaded to the community during the live stream. A condensed 1-hour version of the show, featuring the best and most stirring moments, will be nationally broadcast on FX on April 12.

Jenny McCarthy joins ‘In the Motherhood’

February 27, 2023 By Cristina Ledesma

Building on a successful inaugural season, ‘In the Motherhood,’ a multi-platform online comedy series conceived by Sprint , Suave and MindShare Entertainment, returns to MSN this February with an expanded roster of Hollywood talent and a more robust online community.

The web series, which achieved an amazing 5.5 million views last season, will feature a star-studded ensemble cast. This season, joining Leah Remini and Chelsea Handler is newcomer Jenny McCarthy to profile the ever-hectic, yet always humorous lives of three mom girlfriends.

While Remini, Handler and McCarthy are the stars in front of the camera, the real stars of this unique program are the everyday moms from across the country whose real-life stories will be incorporated into the scripted short-form comedy series.

Here’s how it works: Professional Hollywood screenwriters create the storylines for each of the webisodes and then Moms submit their real-life stories in simple paragraph form. The online mom community votes on its favorite submissions and the winning entries, as voted on by moms across America along with an Advisory Committee, are then polished by the show’s professional writers and developed into the web-based films.

Pearl Jam cries censorship against AT&T

February 10, 2023 By Cristina Ledesma

att1.jpgPearl Jam is crying censorship against AT&T after the lyrics “George Bush, leave this world alone” were silenced during the webcast of Lollapalooza.

“What happened to us this weekend was a wake up call, and it’s about something much bigger than the censorship of a rock band,” the band said in a statement posted in their web site.

AT&T is blaming a webcast editor for the incident.
