I really have a good feeling about this one folks.<br /><br />Prizing: first prize means you get $25,000 check, plus two trips (one to Vegas one to LA, with VIP passes and tix to bball games and allowances and gift cards etc). Second prizing means a shopping spree with a personal shopper, worth $10k. Third prize involves some club thing VIP thing... not sure about that one.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.axedarktemptation.com/rules-regulations.shtml">RULES</a>Ria's video contest pickshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12572787368710591684noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1327828722651064745.post-37027124592259500952007-12-12T08:06:00.000-08:002007-12-12T08:42:24.764-08:00UK phone tossing contest, apparently.Here's an easy video contest for you, but only if you're living in the UK. Grand Prize is £500, but 4 other finalists will get £125.<br /><br />This is what your video must look like: you have to <span style="font-weight: bold;">catch a cell phone from the left, </span>pretend to read a text message and react to it, pretend to respond to the text message you just read, and the <span style="font-weight: bold;">toss your phone to the right</span>. Make sure you make this video in an unusual setting<br /><br />I didn't understand these instructions myself until I saw the demo videos, and understood what it was the contest sponsors are trying to achieve: a phone tossing chain! or a <span style="font-style: italic;">text chain</span> as they would like to call it.<br /><br />So yeah, there you go. Deadline is Dec 21st, so better work fast! I hear he first 10 people to submit videos get free Heavy.com shirts. Their contest page is <a href="http://my.heavy.com/tmobile">here.</a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><embed allowscriptaccess="never" src="http://www.heavy.com/ve/fa6ad09319809262336406346a382c9a" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="350" width="350"></embed><div style="margin-top: 5px; margin-left: 30px;"></div><br /></div>Ria's video contest pickshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12572787368710591684noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1327828722651064745.post-4237242360532578832007-03-19T12:15:00.001-07:002007-03-19T12:15:29.639-07:00Ron Jeremy performs the viral hit "Little Superstar"The Hedgehog goes viral in his sickest role yet: the little Indian dancing superstar.<br></br><br></br><a href='http://www.heavy.com/video/9700'>read more</a> | <a href='http://digg.com/videos_comedy/Ron_Jeremy_performs_the_viral_hit_Little_Superstar'>digg story</a>Ria's video contest pickshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12572787368710591684noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1327828722651064745.post-6375030013687019682007-03-15T13:21:00.000-07:002007-03-15T13:27:37.730-07:00Borat's Videotime Contest updateOk so apparently the contest is not only real, but has been going on for a week!!<br /><br />It's at http://borat.heavy.com (another heavy.com deal) and the deadline is March 30th at 3pm EST. you can upload your video at the contest site..<br /><br />You're supposed to act like Borat in a video 3 minutes or under.<br /><br />No nudity, no swearing, US residents 18+ and I'm not sure what there policy is on getting permission from strangers but I know they've blurred faces in the past for people's videos in case the contestants didn't get permission.

You can come here to find the info you need to enter and get the inside scoop... i got the inside scoop and have decided to share the wealth. My friend works for this website that is ALWAYS doing this kind of stuff...<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m50/quayar/hand-r.gif" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting" border="0" /></a> </span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:130%;">Wii All You Can Wii viral video contest</span><br /></span><br />Make a hilarious video featuring you and/or your friends playing the Nintendo Wii and you<br />could win a) The <span style="font-weight: bold;">GRAND PRIZE of $2,000 + TONS of Wi accessories and games </span>or b) the <span style="font-weight: bold;">runners-up prize of $250</span>.<br /><br />You should will be able to upload your videos to the special channel on heavy dot com as soon as the damned thing goes live... look for the little box with the wii logo on it. I think the videos have to be under 3 minutes long. 18 and over only, at least if you're the one submitting the video. What else... I have heard rumors online that you have to be wearing your Wii straps in the video. Deadline is Feb 28.<br /><br />Upload your video to the contest page <a href="http://wii.heavy.com">HERE</a><br /><br />email wii [at] heavy dot com for info on this..<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m50/quayar/hand-r.gif" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting" border="0" /></a> <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Circus of Awesome unusual talent contest<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br /></span></span></span></span>Got an unusual skill, talent or act?

You'll also get to chill out in a luxurious villa over the course of the weekend and attend the bumpin after party (the celeb host will be in attendance of course). My friend won't say who the celeb is (but I heard a rumor it was Lil Jon... may not be true... my friend says its not true).<br /><br />Again, videos can be <span style="font-weight: bold;">uploaded</span> to the contest channel <a href="http://www.circusofawesome.com">HERE</a>.<br /><br />They're also having <span style="font-weight: bold;">AUDITIONS </span>at Pianos in NYC<br />158 Ludlow St<br />New York City, NY 10002<br />Sunday February 18 4:00pm – 7:00pm<br /><br />Email talent [at] heavy dot com for more info...<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i101.photobucket.com/albums/m50/quayar/hand-r.gif" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting" border="0" /></a> <span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Number 23 Birthday Sweepstakes</span></span><br /><br />When this thing goes live, you'll can enter your birthday and name and such.
