Lady GaGa And Gossip Girl Meet For The First Time

The fall of 2008 held two parallel pop phenomenons: Gossip Girl and Lady GaGa.

Gossip Girl had just premiered their second season, and even though viewership had fallen 7% from a measly, 3.65 million viewers from the pilot episode, they were everywhere. You couldn’t escape the show.

Lady GaGa was just really beginning to work a buzz, because at that point, her single “Just Dance” wasn’t sellable without an album. It was right after the album release that support began to build for her first number 1 single.

In this clip, music supervision company, Chop Shop, seamlessly placed “Paparazzi” into one of the first scenes of Gossip Girl’s second season.

We remember watching this episode. Little did we know that weeks later we would fall in love with this song while giving Lady GaGa’s album a chance.

Not for nothing, but that kiss is totally bawse.

Check the placement out:

Music Placements To Love: No Doubt & 50 First Dates

When No Doubt’s Rock Steady came out, back in the day (December 2001), we fell in love with the sugariness of it. The band had totally gone pop and they did it shamelessly. Plus, they were the first pop act that went ‘80s’ on us.

“Underneath It All” was the first song we gravitated towards. A year later, so would a lot of other folk – it became a Top 40 #1,

In 2004, the musical supervisor for 50 First Dates used it in one of the sweetest scenes of the film. What a wonderful placement this was…created the perfect mood.

A ‘Precious’ Little Trailer

Finally! The trailer to “Precious” is out and about. The only masses that got to see the movie were those that attended the 2009 Sundance Film Festival. The response was incredible, my response was incredible.

The movie takes place in 80s NYC and focuses on a girl who has the most miserable life but has an incredible outlook towards it. Let’s not spoil it…

Mo’Nique was unbelievable. The main character was incredible. Mariah Carey added to the movie. Paula Patton gave a riveting performance. It was simply a great ensemble.
