Music vs Sports

It was double duty this week for me at AOL On and Huffington Post. I usually bring the entertainment and music news to my online friends, but this time around I filled in for Crystal Marie- who also happens to be my roomie- to bring the dudes their sports news on The Fumble. Yes, that’s one of the benefits of having a roommate who works at the same place as you; when you need a replacement, all you have to do is knock on the next door over.

I must say, I had a lot of fun switching between the two as it really brought together my two loves. Outside of my videos for AOL, I usually find myself in the sports world for Bleacher Report and CBS Sports. And, of course, I am living and breathing (dance) music all over the world with ULTRA and MTV. See, I even bring the high top wedge sneakers to the studio.

So, which do you like better? The music or sports stories?

Entertainment news is hard work. Seriously. It’s very glamorous and the stories are very light and fluffy, but it is more than meets the eye. The call time is 4:30am. Yes, 4:30 in the freaking morning! We have to find and write seven stories, find and download pictures to accompany the stories, and then write the headline, description and tags for the video. When that’s all done, we finally get into the studio to shoot it. I am not complaining, though. It makes me feel like my super expensive Journalism degree from NYU was totally worth it.

This week I hosted the music section for REV New Media’s Stereotude brand, which is heavily featured on AOL On, Huffington Post and Yahoo!

These are my favorite stories from the week:

I broke the Paris Jackson suicide attempt story for AOL On:

 

Details on Lea Michele’s new album got 50,000 hits in just one day on AOL!

;

 

While this Justin Bieber v. Paparazzo story did well on the YouTube side.

 

This story warms my Midwestern heart that still believes Cinderella was based on a true story. Where can I find a guy like that? And the answer is definitely NOT Hollywood. And I really dig my Brigitte Bardot look:
