Hey,

I just entered this contest a friend sent me. Someone will win a chance to go on tour with Shakira and report back to mtv.com. Isn’t that crazy? I just thought I’d pass it along if you're interested, you can check it out here:

Well, in that case I can see why filming the Shakira tour is considered crazy. Is this a promo stunt for a new Wes Craven movie?

Shakira's not dead. Maybe you're thinking of a different artist.

OK. I must have been mistaken. I was probably thinking of Ernst Rôhm. It happens all the time.

Dear MTV.com. I suppose there is some chance you'll try and verify your contractor is actually working. Well, as you can see he is.

However, I feel he's not working very hard. If he's charging you for this modern concept of a "grassroots campaign" then I think he could have been considerably more clever. You see; this way we see though it. I supose you'll have to pay him but if I were you I wouldn't deal with him again in the future.

Kind regards,
Kassen,
The Hague, NL.

Hmm.. when I think of it, it happens when I hear people mention FoxNews too. Waddya know

Who's Rhöm? He looks like a Dark-folk performer or something? Does MTV play dark-folk and neo-folk these days?

Ernst was going to become Hitler, but Adolf out-Röhmed him.
As for the connection between MTV and Ernst Röhm and the SA.. well.. mindless masses.. bad leadership.. the ultimate evil.. you know.. the usual fare. Same goes for FoxNews.

And you didn't even read the small print yet ?

Quote:
10. Past experience has confirmed that contests and other competitions generate substantially similar submissions or entries which closely resemble concepts and ideas that have been independently developed by MTVN before or after the Contest. Accordingly, entrants may subsequently see an MTVN presentation which seemingly incorporates an idea or concept or includes materials similar to that contained in their Submissions. Any similarity is purely coincidental and unavoidable in light of the volume of ideas which MTVN routinely considers in the course of its program development. Because of this possibility, contestants hereby agree to submit their Submissions under the following terms and conditions: (i) that MTVN may use any ideas, concepts, material, in whole or in part, contained in a Submission; (ii) that all materials submitted become the property of MTVN and will not be returned; (iii) that all materials submitted are free from any lien or claim by anyone, including, but not limited to any union, guild or performance rights society; (iv) Entrants have obtained all rights, permissions and licenses necessary to use the Submissions for any purpose; (v) that no Submission or any part thereof infringes any trademark or copyright or otherwise violates anyone's right of privacy or publicity; and (vi) Entrants indemnify and hold harmless Viacom International Inc., MTVN, Epic, the Artist, the Tour/ Artist Management companies and their, Gillette Complete Skin Care, Mexico Tourism Board, Sonic, Trojan and their subsidiaries and affiliated companies from any claims, suits, losses damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that arise from any breach of the following conditions. All Entrants agree to the foregoing and in addition agree to obtain, upon request of MTVN and/or any documentation and releases necessary to prove their unrestricted ownership in all materials contained in their Submission and their right to use and license MTVN the right to use such materials without limitation for any purpose. They further agree, if chosen as Grand Prize Winner, to assign all right, title and interest in all materials (e.g. videotapes, photographs, sound recordings etc.) created by them as part of their participation in the Tour/Grand Prize and agree to sign such documentation as is necessary to formalize this assignment; failure to execute such documentation is grounds for elimination from the Contest and an alternate Grand Prize Winner may be chosen.

So we are going to bill these guys for posting an ad here? We can do that.
Perhaps could fax them pictures of Ernst Röhm too.. nah.. bad idea. They probably already have pictures of the great martyr of the SA in their boardrooms.

And what about Kassen's advice, that can't be free either.

As for a further connection between the Shakira/MTV contest and the SA boys, what about the concept of a chosen few being allowed on "tour" with the "blonde" girls? Footstomping goosestepping hilarious if you ask me. Shocked
And rather sick.

As far as I know he has outsourced his fee collecting. Kassen, is it the Church of Scientology who is doing this for you now?

Howard, this is an ad. A promo campaign. We have already extensively googled this one. This is being posted all over the place.

Howard, I supose you are disqualified for rather dubious reasons and I pull little weight with the Catholics, I supose, after my Catholic mother decided to mary a atheist man, but if I ever get to nominate one man for saint-hood....
