Music Blogs

I knew there was a reason I liked My Chemical Romance! Sure, I dig their music. But there's something else: our shared love of reality television.

It seems I have a fellow fanatical blogger in MCR's Gerard Way--who, like me, is currently obsessed with VH1's horror-movie talent search Scream Queens and latest hoochie-tastic dating show, Real Chance Of Love.

My Chemical Romance just relaunched their website, and Gerard is now blogging about these chemically addictive Celebreality shows:

Scream Queens was solid yet again, very tense episode. Ladies are getting fierce for that part in Saw 6. I realized it's also very unnerving to watch people act on television. It gives you the "motts."

The best way to describe "the motts" is like this:

Do you remember the first time you watched a bad daytime interview show, like Springer or something, and someone is just making a total ass out of themselves, doing or saying something very uncomfortable?

Or when you are sitting through a high school talent show and all of a sudden you feel embarrassed for your classmate who is singing "The Greatest Love Of All" by Whitney Houston?

You sometimes have to cover your eyes, or look away.

That's "the motts."

The phrase was coined by Mark Debiak in reference to an old Motts Applesauce commercial from when we were kids, involving what I remember as a child dressed as a film noir detective searching for "the motts" or while searching for "the motts" asking people "who got the motts?" I believe he finds the motts at the end.

I find "the motts" all the time.

Real Chance Of Love is slipping for me. I find myself mysteriously drawn to Real's hair, entertained by Chance, and fascinated with the term "Stallionaires." I often wonder what exactly it takes to be a "Stallionaire," but the show didn't hold my attention last night...I simply do not know if Real or Chance actually want to find love.

I agree with Gerard on all points. I hope he keeps up with his the TV-blogging...I am dying to find out what he thinks of Celebrity Rehab 2, or if he was happy that Simeon won on the Pickup Artist 2 finale last night, or if he too cannot wait until that wee-yotch Lacey gets booted off Rock Of Love: Charm School. I must know!

Stay tuned...
