Not So Wild

I must really be getting old, because I no longer understand MTV. For instance, I'm still not really sure who Nick Cannon and Tila Tequila are and why they are famous. I also don't watch Wild 'N Out, which is basically a whole show devoted to improvised insult comedy and...

I must really be getting old, because I no longer understand MTV. For instance, I'm still not really sure who Nick Cannon and Tila Tequila are and why they are famous. I also don't watch Wild 'N Out, which is basically a whole show devoted to improvised insult comedy and hosted by Cannon, who judging by the clips we've seen is not famous for his jokes. Or maybe I'm thinking of that show hosted by Wilmer Valderrama; doesn't really matter. Anyway, kids these days are idiots. Look for a bunch of them (but not the inexplicably famous Cannon himself) at the Wild 'N On Tour show New Year's Eve at the Majestic Theatre, 1925 Elm St. Tickets are $31 to $102 (I will make fun of your mom for some Chick-Fil-A, on the other hand) and the show starts at 8 p.m. Visit liveatthemajestic.com.
