Yesterday we had the fortunate – or, depending on which members of the press you asked, unfortunate – pleasure to hit the 2006 MTV VMA red carpet. We've been through this routine before: Paris, Beyonce, Christina, and Jessica all strut by the entire press line after doing their official MTV segments. Brooke Hogan and her entire over-muscled family, meanwhile, arrive early and leave late, hoping any random media outlet will at least agree to record a soundbite. Aside from that last sentence, even we (bottom of the barrel when you figure we were standing next to InStyle, Billboard, Rolling Stone, and Wire Image) aren't so desperate we'll give them coverage.

But that's not to say we didn't court the attention of other B-listers, like Jesse McCartney, Three 6 Mafia, Tyrese, Ashley Parker Angel, Andy Milonakis, and a Real Worlder. But these aren't your regular celebrity interviews. Perhaps because they're barely celebrities? Watch the clips, after the jump.


Jesse McCartney — what was that about Jennifer Lopez being pregnant?

If Haley Joel Osment can go down in flames for crashing a '95 Saturn, we wanted to know how MTV2's Andy Milonakis would prefer to ruin his reputation.

After winning the Academy Award, Three 6 Mafia's biggest door that opened for them? The bank vault.

If you didn't waste enough time watching his reality show, Ashley Parker Angel explains a bigger time suck: MySpace.

Real World Key West's Paula Meronek will talk freely about being the cast whore, not that she's fine with it. And if she were to go on a drunken tirade a la Mel Gibson, she wouldn't go after the Jews — she'd target Flava Flav's girls.

If there is booty to be shaken, Tyrese wants it to be Beyonce's.
