Pop Icon-ish

This past week Brian Graden, president of MTV, Logo, and VH1, came to speak at Mt. SAC. He spoke about his life, his career and his projects. The funny part of it all was when he compared every stage of his life to a reality tv show, that he would then go on to play a clip from. It sort of seemed like big ad for MTV. Nevertheless, he managed to capture my interest. Isn't that the most important thing?
P.S. Well he was quite inspiring actually. His whole life story about how he was fired from his job and then he went to work at South Park. I think he is the reason that the show is on the air. (thanks Brian). Also he used to be married, to a woman! Considering the fact that he is gay, thats pretty surprising. How could a man who's had so many obstacles in life, turn out to be a president of one of the most popular networks in the world? Thats pretty interesting to me.
