Happy 44th birthday to MTV!

I am so lucky to have been in artist development at the network right as Logo TV was launching. It meant that I got to host TV shows (plural) on cable! My music videos played around the clock on Viacom properties — Logo, obviously — but also on VH1, MTV proper, and Spike TV (RIP The Man Channel lol).

It was a completely bonkers time in my life and I will always be grateful to MTV executives like Perry Turcotte back then who championed me into a reality where my vision and my songs found their way into over 26 million homes each week. This lasted for years and it was hard to comprehend the scale or impact at the time but I get it now. It has been 20 years and I’m very clear that I am still here, largely because of that.

I’m an industry plant, baby!

Happy 27th birthday to my music career. I have had some very high highs and some very low lows but generally just suck way less than I used to, which is cool.

Thank you to everyone who has made me look hot and sound cute over these decades of doing whatever this has been or will someday become.

I probably love you much more than you realize.

I’m proud that I get to work with these talented folks.

Tickets are on sale now for all of this stuff. Don’t mess up your life by not being there! Read the rest of this entry »
