It's 1995 and Daisy Fuentes Has Succumbed to Leomania
Yesterday, a tweet by former Gawker writer/current Vanity Fair writer Richard Lawson brought my attention to this clip of a young Leonardo DiCaprio—circa The Basketball Diaries—being interviewed by Daisy Fuentes on VH1’s Top 20 Video Countdown.

Good God Almighty, This Hot GRITS Show
VH1 recently announced its spring lineup and additions include Hot GRITS, a show following several girls and their South Georgia escapades. As a native Georgian who spent chunks of her childhood not so far from where this was filmed, I am beside myself. I have burst from my skin and I am standing next to myself.
VH1 Won't Cancel Sorority Sisters, Even Though Everybody Hates It
VH1's Sorority Sisters is the newest addition to a long line of embarrassing programming from a network that impressively continues to find even lower lows.

Watch the First (Incredibly Exciting) Teaser for the Drumline Sequel
Even though some are misguided enough to think the world didn't need more Drumline, the good people at VH1 knew better. The day Drumline: A New Beat premieres is coming closer and closer and luckily we have a little video tidbit of it to tide us over until then.
Nick Lachey is the Most Boring Man in America
To promote his new hosting gig at Vh1's Big Morning Buzz Live, former 98 degree Nick Lachey did a Reddit AMA this afternoon. Biggest takeaway: Nick Lachey is almost comically boring. He's Applebee's deep fried sizzlin' vanilla. He is a beige taco filled with extra mild nothing sauce. He is a perfectly square 100%…
VH1 Will Do a New Dating Series...Naked
It's happening. VH1 — the network that keeps 40-something comedians regularly employed by making them relive and explain notable pop culture events from a time when said comedians were more popular, locking them into a hellish cycle of nostalgia and desperation that daytime television audiences can really relate to —…
Get Super-Excited for the TLC Biopic, CrazySexyCool
The TLC biopic CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story, set to premiere October 21 on VH1, will feature music video recreations of “Waterfalls” and “Creep.” That’s probably the most important point to mention, since those music videos were each wonderful. We’ll also probably get a triumphant sequence of Left Eye burning down…
