ABOUT MTV News

MTV News is the authority for music, movies and pop culture news for the Millennial audience, producing a diverse mix of daily news stories, insider specials, weekly series, live red carpet shows, exclusive music video and movie premieres, as well as exclusive artist and celebrity interviews on-air, online, via mobile and across social media. The unit has experienced tremendous growth year-over-year (57-percent increase in unique visitors; 32-percent increase in video streams), fueled largely by its innovative, interactive new initiative, “MTV First.”

“MTV First” embraces the channel’s short-form legacy with live four-minute, on-air exclusive interviews that expand in real-time to long-form, online live streams. Since January, “MTV First” has featured Lil Wayne, Foo Fighters, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Taylor Lautner, Taylor Swift and Robert Pattinson, as well as online-only live stream, “RapFix Live.”
