Swizz Beatz Takes Over

Mon, 15 Aug 2011 19:07:10 +0100

Swizz Beatz is a man that could kick back. What with his repertoire of hits as a producer and artist, his art collection and his multiple car and fashion lines, not to mention beautiful family, he COULD kick back. But he doesn't.

What struck MTV News UK most after meeting the man recently was his total commitment to everything he does. He wants to make music that lasts forever and start trends that reach around the globe.

With perhaps the catchiest beat of the year, we had to ask about the first cut off of Haute Living, an album that's ......not an album.....

MTV News @ The 2012 Olympic Stadium

Thu, 04 Aug 2011 18:05:00 +0100

With just under a year to go until the biggest sporting event in the world kicks off - on our doorstep, the News squad headed across London for a sneak peak inside the new Olympic Stadium.

The running track is now 75% finished, all the seats are in, and the turf is laid. It was great to see that the only exclusive seating was for the Royal Family and the 'Olympic Family'. There's not a bad view in the house.

Check out our exclusive interview with the fastest man in the world Usain Bolt in Friday's MTV News, and watch Laura's whistle stop guide to the stadium below:

Angie Stone live @ The Jazz Cafe

Tue, 21 Jun 2011 12:40:00 +0100

The Jazz Cafe is a venue that dreams are made of. Not just because it's one of the most intimate live music destinations still operating but because the booker has immaculate taste. Angie Stone AND Bobby Womack within 2 weeks? Proof if proof were needed.

It was Angie that we caught live there last week, and found ourselves amongst an audience that was there for the music, not just on a night out, or tagging along with friends. These were fans, and fans that were enthralled by the iconic lady they were within touching distance of.

MTV News @ Volvo Snowbombing: Day 4 - Mark Ronson/Volvo Ice Camp

Sat, 09 Apr 2011 20:34:39 +0100

By Alice Levine

Headed off early this morning to the Volvo Ice Camp in Kaprun. Was not prepared for the 2 hours of hairpin bends. Helpfully, on every sharp turn in the road, (you know, where you could plummet to your death) they've removed the fence. Good call.

MTV News @ Volvo Snowbombing 2011: Day 2 – Example/Yasmin/Ed Sheeran/Pro Green

Thu, 07 Apr 2011 22:05:34 +0100

“Shall we frame in the cable cars or the mountain?” Not an everyday conversation in the MTV News office, but here in Mayrhofen it’s a real issue. So we went with both.

MTV News @ Volvo Snowbombing 2011: Day 1 - Pendulum

Wed, 06 Apr 2011 11:20:12 +0100

“Ibiza on Ice”

Day 1 in Mayrhofen and the ‘calm before the storm’ feeling grew bigger with each coach load of Snowbombers arriving from the airport. With the local Spar frantically stocking their shelves with Jagermeister, we headed to the 5* Hotel Elisabeth for our first interview.

MTV News @ Snowbombing 2011: Road Trip

Mon, 04 Apr 2011 20:58:48 +0100

Waiting for Snowbombing to arrive is like waiting for Cowell to choose a judge, or Torres to score a goal for Chelsea. It’s inevitable but takes an age. So imagine our excitement when we arrived (in our customised MTV XC60) on the Road Trip start line. Now imagine that excitement when Mr Motivator parks next to you.
