MTV Seeking Straight Male Virgins in LA
The concept of being an over-18 male virgin in LA isn't a foreign one to LAist, if it wasn't for that night in the Honda in Ventura a few days after our 21st birthday (thnx Michelle) who knows how long it may have taken us to lose it.
But no way would we have gone on MTV to be taped for Suburban Virgin, a new show the teen-orientated former music network is now casting for, says reality blurred.
Here's what you've gotta do to pop your TV cherry:
1. You “must live within driving distance of the Los Angeles area and have limited to no experience with the opposite sex.”
2. You must be able to deliver them your email address, a photo, and “a brief history of [your pathetically dry] love life.”
We suggest keeping it real brief.

Then you must have the great good luck that MTV picks your untouched ass to exploit feature on their fine network.
Go to reality blurred for the email address that may change your life. "Hey you're that virgin guy on MTV who lives in the suburbs... and stuff."
