In an attempt to revive the music video, Pete Wentz has created FNMTV, a bizarre combination of the VMAs, TRL and sadly deceased Making the Video that features the premieres of new clips. Friday night’s debut seemed like more of a celebration of awkwardness than the art of lip synching and cheesy acting, though.
Exhibit A: Wentz’s repeated references to his wife and (impending) kid lead Snoop to suck on a plastic nipple; the audience disses Snoop’s video … while he’s still standing there being interviewed.
Exhibit B: Strange, seizure-inducing lights herald each premiere; the crowd deems blink-182 more important than the Who; Wentz makes the painful mistake of going off-script to interview the Ting-Tings.
