Pete Wentz is bringing music back to Music Television.
According to Buzznet, newly married and father-to-be Pete Wentz told AbsolutePunk that his new MTV show “is going to blow everyone’s mind.” The new show, F’N MTV, debuts Friday and will bring more music back to MTV. The first episode will include a performace by Panic at the Disco, says Buzznet. Wentz said to AbsolutePunk, “We had an idea for a show to be on a music network that would play only videos . . . and had the idea to be on MTV, as the name is “Music Television.” He also added, “I can’t even explain what people should expect.” Reportedly, videos from Blink 182, The Cure, The Replacements, and Michael Jackson will appear on the show, as well as videos from some unknown bands, and rare-footage from well knowns.
Wentz said to doubtful music listeners, “I feel like a lot of times people complain because sandpaper is too rough, you know? I don’t think that this show is going to revolutionize the world. It’s not going to change music. It doesn’t show that Pete Wentz is the hero of the MTV generation or anything like that. All I wanted to see is some more videos get played on MTV.”
Commercials for the new show featured Hills bad-guys Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, separating Wentz’s show from the “reality” MTV has become.
