This don't seem right - isn't MTV at 1515 Broadway in New York, NY?
Subject: Re: MTV "DUETS": PERFORM WITH YOUR FAVORITE ARTIST
You know they're just going to pick someone who wants to sing with a singer like Britney or Justin Timberlake. I know they wouldn't have me on TV singing a duet with The Tragically Hip or Danzig.

We've learned not to take these posts seriously, unless you can somehow prove this solicitation to be legitimate. By the way....
Why are you soliciting from Pennsylvania?

Holmes: hmmmm....Watson, I believe there is a game afoot.
Watson: Oh, most assuredly, Holmes.
;D :D ;)

Hey all,
Thanks for checking out the post. For the record, Colorado Ave is the West coast office, I'm in Los Angeles myself - not Penn - for more info or to verify the legitimacy of the show, call the number and, lastly, I wish we were doing a show with The Hip myself (but that's just my personal opinion and not that of MTV). We've already started auditions and are accepting tapes. Call us. ( 8 6 6 ) 4 8 8 - 9 2 8 8
thanks,

Gasp! This isn't a fake. Go to MTV.com > On-Air > Casting Call, scroll down a bit, and you'll see the Duets link, exact same info (minus the address).

Holmes: By jove, Watson....it appears we jumped to conclusions far to quickly.
Watson: Beg pardon, if you please. This might be a rather good opportunity for some fellow members of our board.
Shazz Who: Yea, but they won't have artists that I like, so no thanks. Go for it folks! ;D ;) :D
