Woo … my day/afternoon/evening/night at the 2008 MTV VMAs was a whole lotta fun but it was also a whole lotta hot! I basically spent the entire day outside, mostly in the blistering sun but once it got darker, much cooler. The day was really fun, a little manic and a total blast as always. Here are some of the pics that I snapped on the red carpet yesterday:

There were many highlights for me but I was very thrilled to be able to meet both Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner who will both be starring in the upcoming movie version of Twilight. As you may already know, Robert plays Edward and Taylor plays Jacob. They were both very cool and I can’t wait to see them in character on the big screen when Twilight opens in November. As always, it was great getting to see the celebs on the carpet but I had the best time in the VIP green room area for the rest of the night … that’s where the food, booze and the celebs were just hanging out. I got to meet quite a few Pink readers, here are some pics of the folks that I got to meet:

The last pic of me and Will, my Detroit homie who was on the last season of The Real World: Hollywood but the other folks are various Pink readers I had the extreme pleasure to meet. In the first pic, the gent with the smooth outfit is Jeremiah James who is an up-and-coming singer who’s music has been featured on The Hills among other TV shows. I’ve checked out some of his music and he is really damn good. I hope to get to hear more of him soon. I’m posed with Kelly (who I love) in the pic with Jeremiah.

I also got to meet Greg, Hayley, Jennifer, Hannah, Carolina, Mindy, Tim and Heather (who I also love and am bummed we didn’t get a pic) … I’m sure I’ve forgotten a few names but it was my pleasure meeting you all.
My only party of the night was the VMAs official afterparty … to be honest, I was pretty wiped out from the late night before seeing Nine Inch Nails and the long day in the sun. I did have a great time tho … much, much love goes out to Emily, Sarah and Anastasia at MTV for taking amazing care of me. I can’t believe another MTV VMAs is already dunzo … it truly is the end of summer :(





























I feel obligated to stand up for my boo Taylor . . . . Jacob Black is totally my favorite character, and i think (lookswise) he was cast perfectly!!
ps. whatever douchebag said you look less than excellent in these pictures (sounusual) is full of it! You look great, as always!
WOW. You lucky, lucky man. I would literally give my eyeballs to meet Robert Pattinson. He looked so incredibly gorgeous last night and then they freakin’ cut him off, but lets not go there. So, can you at least tell us how he smelled?? Sadly I am dying to know that. Also, when do we get to see/hear the interview????? Thanks and you are awesome.
Aw unfair, i loved robert in Hp, and now to start in my other fav book. He will be amazing, he never smiles in photos with fans tho, haha maybe he doesn’t like it?
Still Taylor is a total cutie tho, perfectly cast as Jacob.

trent,
remember the good ol’ days when we both loved britney and never lost faith in her?
i’ve always loved her and as it turns out, i am coincidentally bipolar as well, and also a singer (atleast vocal performance was what i studied at iu bloomington school of music… but ANYWAY)
you don’t mention her at all.
no pics of how fabulous she looked.
no comments like, congrats on your first… second, and third awards all in one show you are the baddest b*tch and i’m so proud of you, i knew you could do it!
or like, side notes about how you hope this gives her love and strength to give us our old britney back. she won 3 awards and you act like she wasn’t even there.. she only won every category she was nominated in.
trent.
let’s face it. there was a LONG time where you would have given your hetero virginity to have so much as a picture with her.
you’ve taken well to LA. you’re more fake than janice dickenson’s entire face and the victoria beckham you take turns making fun of and glamorizing bec you wish you could ride her hubby’s self proclaimed and apparently proven huge c*ck. jerk off to it, but the robot woman you mock is the one he chooses to bone every night and procreate with… who the hell are you but a blog writer…
and again, a lame one now since you don’t even cover britney anymore.
you were my one stop shop.
i’m glad she barely acknowledges you… i don’t like your blog anymore. it’s drab, teeny-bopper… boring, britney-less… and in turn i realized how lame you are without sharing a mutual britney obsession. you’ve become a sellout and it’s really pathetic.
oh… and …heidi and spencer???? speidi as you coined and used to mock them with? but now you’re such a loser trying to suck up to them…. dumb. pathetic. this is not bolstering your “look at me, i made pink is the new blog and now i’m in la! can i take a pic with you,and be adopted into hollywoodland??” goal. the people you cover are dreadfully boring and/or just plain faddish and small (fake) potatoes.
i remember when i could COUNT on this blog to ALWAYS feature britney content FIRST AND FOREMOST NO MATTER WHAT, come rain or come shine. and when there was no news to report, a twinge of curiosity and what i thought was genuine concern, was present in lieu of photos and media content.
for anyone else who reads this and agress, chime in. i’ve found that what http://www.wwtdd.com lacks in love or feature of britters is atleast replaced by wittiness and a REAL personality you can almost hear when you read it. he hates britney and has way more pics and content on her. trent, we could use you to give her a positive spin.
what happened to you? is it LA? i liked you better when you lived in detroit. before you sold OUT.
trent OUT.
trent your blog used to be like that.
oh, and by the way,
i hate what you’ve done with the place. the new page design is a downgrade. it may have been more expensive and less campy…
but I LIKED IT CAMPY.
AND I MISS MY BRITNEY.
in conclusion, i used to love you, your insights, pictures and blog.
all of this is bullchIt now.
WHERE THE IS BRITNEY…WHY DIDNT U MEET HER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!DERE ISNT ANY MENTION F HER’S…….SHE WAS THE MAIN STAR..WASNT INTERESTED IN ANYBODY ELSE…THE VMA SECTION UVE PUT UP IS BORING…AND NOT HOT…..BUCK UP TRENT ….AND LOOSE SOME WEIGHT !!!!!..U LOOK LIKE ANJOHN Mc CAIN WITH THE WHITE HAIR..ITS CALLED HAIR COLOUR TRENT….

OMGOMGOMG TRENT!!!
DUDE. so i’m a giant douche. i just found your whole blog dedicated to her. oh trent, how could i have ever doubted you? i just had to dig for it! you wrote like 5 pages… duh! i should have looked on the first page but i was too busy being a manic retard.
my bad.
forgive me please? i take back the comment about http://www.wwtdd.com and everything else i said… you did her right and i was too stupid to find it before i opened my giant mouth. sorry for the explosion. :)
LONG LIVE THE QUEEN OF POP
