Vh1's Biggest Celebreality Star Desperately Seeks Manager, Pooper Scooper

Mark Graham — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 16:20:00 EDT

While you might not recognize the name Tiffany Pollard, anyone who has followed Vh1's Celebreality franchises over the last three years certainly knows the name New York. After getting rebuffed by Flavor Flav on the first two installments of the gloriously trashy Flavor Of Love series, she became one of cable television's biggest stars when the premiere episode of I Love New York became the most-watched series premiere in the network's history. Now, having proved to be one of reality television's most resilient stars (along with Real World / Road Rules vets like Mark Long and Coral Smith), Tiffany "New York" Pollard is now attempting to be the first person since Real World: London's Jacinda Barrett to make the successful leap to silver screen stardom on her newest show, New York Goes To Hollywood. In the show's first episode, New York learns that, just like any other aspiring actor or actress, she needs to get herself a manager before she has the opportunity to show what she can do on the casting couch. Sadly, the monologue she delivered for a room full of low-level talent scouts — the kind that would have trouble scoring a table for 4 at the In-N-Out Burger — made Brian Atene look like Stanislavski's most prized pupil. Her poorly performed (yet hilariously overacted) riff on dog shit and public transportation awaits you after the jump.

Do you have a camera, editing skills, balls (we speak figuratively, of course, as we're an ovary-positive shop), and a total disregard for either your professional reputation of your personal safety? If you answered affirmatively to most of the items in that list, you may have a place on the Defamer team. We're looking for a video freelancer to handle an exciting array of future projects that involve brazenly sticking your lens in places where it probably doesn't belong. If you're interested, continue on for a list of some requirements and the way to submit yourself for consideration:

Defamer Freelance Video Position:

- Must have basic Final Cut Pro and iMovie skills
- Must be willing to film in locations in which you are unwelcome/forbidden/may be tasered/have personal style insulted
- Must be willing to be up on the latest Hollywood news and gossip
- Must enjoy watching shows like EXTRA, ET, Access Hollywood, and various late night talk shows
- Must have a car/be willing to travel (this is L.A., God help you if you don't have a car.)
- Own video camera/computer/editing softwear a must, doesn't have to be fancy, miniDV camera will do

Typical filming duties will be crashing after parties, working red carpets, doing impromptu interviews with actors, directors, etc. who are unlucky enough to cross your camera-wielding path, and much, much more! Perfect for someone fresh from film/broadcasting school. Please submit a one-liner bio and a link to some of your past work to lavideo[AT]gawker.com (Important: Do NOT send submission to our regular e-mail addresses, as those resumes will be deleted unread.
