Alright, it’s official! I am an MTV VJ! Grab that remote, get comfortable with your Beavis and Butthead cardboard cutouts (how cool are theyt?!), and get your dancing shoes on. Or just set your DVR’s, because my MTV countdown show “MTV Essentials” is officially live on air!

MTV Essentials Premieres Worldwide on MTV Live every Thursday 17:00 GMT/UK time. For those not on military time, that’s 5:00pm in London, 6:00pm in Paris, 7:00pm in Tel Aviv, 9:00pm in Moscow, Midnight in Bangkok, 1:00am in Beijing, 2:00am in Seoul, 4:00am in Sydney/Melbourne, 2:00pm in Santiago/Buenos Aires, and 3:00pm in Rio de Janiero.

Wow. I feel like I just wrote a Pitbull song. MTV Essentials airs EVERYWHERE in the world, except my home country of the United States. Oh, and Africa. So, it looks like I’ll be heading out of the country soon – anyone got a red couch?
