So late last night, I was flipping through the channels and managed to catch a new MTV special, "Behind the Scenes of TRL" or "TRL Uncensored" or something like that. Most of it was basically an interview with the Dreamy One himself, Carson Daly and footage relevant to what Carson was saying. The part that I caught was involving some of the more difficult moments that Carson's had to deal with on TRL. The first bit I saw (and I came into the middle of this, so I might of missed a bit) was Carson relating the news of the tragic death of Joe C., Kid Rock's midget mascot.

Next up was Carson discussing his most difficult assignment, ever, interviewing Tara Reid. Tara is, of course, the blonde one (not the cool one, but the kind of bitchy one) in the "American Pie" movies who he was engaged to before she dumped him. Carson was going on to say how much fun it was to interview her for that cinematic masterpiece that was "Josie and the Pussycats" which was back when they were dating and making all the gossip columns for drunken behavior. Six months later, after she dumped him, she was back on the show being interviewed, along with the rest of the cast, for "American Pie II." Carson was discussing what a difficult thing it was for him to do and admittedly but then addmitted that no matter how difficult it was, he felt like it was his job not to show anything and that he had to do it because of the importance of TRL Yep, that Carson, kind of right up there with Dan, Tom and Peter, on air for hours Sept. 11th. What a trooper.

On the other hand, Tom, Peter and Dan never broke up with a blonde hollywood starlet and then have to interview them. Then again, she is kind of a skanky bimbo ho who looked much better before she went on the Calista Flockhart diet.
