Florence and The Machine

It’s that time of the year again, the MTV Music Awards are upon us.

For most people seeing Kanye diss little Taylor Swift or listening to Beyonce (who is married) sing about single ladies is great. This year however, there will be something different for the viewers to enjoy.

UK’s famed indie rocker Florence and the Machine will be performing. Florence and the Machine is composed of Florence Welch and a variety of other artists who play backup for her. Her 2009 album “Lungs” has won critical acclaim. Many may know her for the track “Heavy in Your Arms” which is featured on The Twilight Saga: Eclipse soundtrack. That song in particular is one of her best.

The MTV Music Awards premieres on Sunday September 12th at 9PM ET.

Styl'D

Okay how many of you caught MTV's new reality show, Styl'D, last night? I missed it but I'm watching the episode online.

For those of you who don't know what Styl'D is, it's a reality show where aspiring stylists are chosen for the highly competitive junior assistant program at the Margaret Maldonado Agency, where their work as assistants on real celebrity jobs in the field will be evaluated over eight weeks to determine which of them will be signed to the contract at the end of the program.

The Margaret Maldonado Agency is North America's most prominent agency for fashion and beauty, representing the most sought after wardrobe stylists, hair and make up artists, photographers and up-and-coming designers.

I would love to be on a show like this, as I am an aspiring stylist and this would totally jump start my career. Not only that but working for the Margaret Maldonado Agency would be a dream come true.

These aspiring stylists have a lot of hard work ahead of them but they are competing for a prize of a lifetime so really it's totally worth it.

Catch Styl'D Sunday nights at 10pm on MTV.
