Page Six reports that despite assurances from network brass over at MTV that “‘TRL’ has not been canceled,” VJ Vanessa Minnillo is still gearing up to jump ship.
The former flame of Derek Jeter and current squeeze of Nick Lachey will not renew her contract, which expires in April, we’re told. “MTV wants her out,” said another insider. Other sources say continuous rumors of the show’s demise and Minnillo’s other high-wattage opportunities are driving her away from the network.
I think the saddest part of all of this TRL stuff has been the realization that–HOLY CRAP–I’ve recently become too old for their demographic. I can’t even apply to be on the “Real World” anymore–I’m going to have to be in my own “Real World”–i.e., live my life. Do you like how I managed to make this post–which has NOTHING to do with me–about my own mortality? Sigh. I’m going to go look at my baby pictures and cry.

Just letting you know- those “You’ve won a free laptop” ads make my entire screen blink different shades of black and makes it pretty much impossible for me to read all of your witty remarks.

Yeah, she’s got such mad skillz that she’s going to land some high powered well paying job, doing… oh yeah nevermind.
In a couple of years nobody will even remember what Vanessa Manillafolders real name even was. Sigh, such a cruel business.

This post is too funny…I felt the same way! When I realized that I was too old for TRL or the cast of Real World I had a Liza-type breakdown.
