We weren't lying. On last week's inaugural episode of FNMTV, we brought in Pete Wentz, and we brought back music videos -- real, actual, full-length ones and even some classics too from before you were born. Plus: lots of really enthusiastic audience members, special effects that stopped just short of pyrotechnics and Cirque du Soleil illusionists, and real actual DISCUSSION about videos. People. Talking about videos. After the videos aired. On television. on MUSIC television.
But in case you're not the type to dwell in the past, tomorrow night's show -- tune in Friday, June 20 at 8pm ET/PT -- features performances by Duffy and Lil Wayne, plus guest appearances and video premieres from...
Vampire Weekend - "Oxford Comma"
Boys Like Girls - "Thunder"
Lil Mama featuring T-Pain - "What It Is (Strike A Pose)"
Shawty Lo - "Foolish" (remix)
+ After the jump -- highlights from last week's show.
So, in case you missed last week's show, here are a few of our most must-seeing-est moments. You can also watch the videos in our enormo new video player. (We had to rearrange some furniture to fit it in our living room.)
+ Pussycat Dolls' new wish fulfillment video, "When I Grow Up" -- are they saying "boobies?" "Groupies?" Both? Sure, why not?
+ The Ting Tings' hypnotic "Shut Up and Let Me Go" video -- our pick for "INSTANT CLASSIC!" -- and their tongue-in-cheeky storybook segment, narrated by our own Jim Cantiello of 60-second Idol recap fame.
+ Flo Rida's turbulent "In the Ayer" video, which had us looking up in the ayer, wondering if our oxygen mask was about to deploy.
+ Pete's reference to the Emancipation Proclamation. Someone paid attention in history class!
+ Panic At the Disco and Snoop's genius "Gin and Juice" performance.
+ Also: Snoop goes country!
+ Tom Tom Club's triumphant return to MTV!
+ These girls: can we get them on the next Dance Crew, stat?
