    I don't agree with any of the goods- Hilary Burton looks like she has consumption or something.


    But I love Beyonce's jacket, if only paired with some restrained jeans.

    Beyonce's outfit looked like something from the original "Planet of the Apes" or even worse, House of Dereon!!


    The demise of TRL wreaks havoc the stock houses, so many magazines used those photos on the TRL wall for celeb footage.

    When I think of TRL...I think MMM Bop...


    And the many many times of me putting my tape player up to the TV screen trying to record mmmbop onto a tape for my friends.

    @devilchyld22: poppycock.


    mmmbop was, like, spring of '97, and TRL didn't go on the air until fall of '98.


    i was very, very invested in such things at the time (ehr, and remain so, apparently).

    I don't like the one song by Taylor Swift that I've heard, but I heard her on the radio talking about freaking out about Def Leppard and them having no idea who she was when she begged them to do that CMT Crossroads thing with her, and she seemed extremely likable and self-deprecating. I still don't know that I'd buy one of her albums, but she gets a pass on any booties she wants to wear because of it.

    @MisterMoonlight: i saw that cmt crossroads thing she did with def leppard this weekend. her singing 'pour some sugar on me' as a duet with the band was .......skeevy. they switched out the verses on 'photograph' so that she wouldn't have to sing the part about 'such a woman...', and she was earnest and geeky enough, but there was a lot of rock posturing going on with her, and she didn't really have the voice to match.

    My sole memory of TRL is the comment ticker, and a bunch of comments along the lines of "OMG 'MY HEART WILL GO ON' IS TOTALLY MY WEDDING SONG!!11!"


    Oh, and the wacky guy who won their VeeJay contest. Jesse? Anyone remember him? He freaked Carson out.

    This made me feel older than anything else, ever. TRL goes off the air and I only know who three (four if you count LaLa) the "stars" are? Excuse me, I need to go look up the best early bird special at Denny's for dinner tonight.

    @R_Claw...v.2.01 now comes with hope for the future.: Country singer. Pretty talented - I like a few of her songs and I'm not even into country. Plus she crosses over into mainstream pop quite a bit, so that's probably why you keep hearing about her.

    anyone else remember the email campaign that circulated at the height of the late 90s boyband build up that asked us all to vote for a new kids on the block video on Total Request Live (this was loooong before they abbreviated it to TRL), and it actually worked? I think it was like #2 that day. I totally participated in that ... as any 15 year old girl would have, i'm sure. I think I probably even still have it on a VHS tape somewhere at my parents' house.

    I did not know TRL was dunzo. MTV is finally free to change its name to Reality TV-kicking off its programming schedule with the gut wrenching Moon Man: 10 Years Later.
