Follow the Flaming Lips’ record-breaking quest and all the awards via the 24-hour live stream. By Kara Warner The Flaming Lips’ Wayne Coyne Photo: And they’re off! This year’s O Music Awards have officially begun with a very ambitious and action-packed 24-hour live stream. The digitally driven event that celebrates and honors artists, fans and innovators impacting digital-music culture will aim to help rockers the Flaming Lips break the Guinness World Record for the most concerts performed in multiple cities in a 24-hour time period. This extra-special and possible record-breaking event will unfold via a historic bus ride through the Mississippi Delta, the birthplace of rock and roll. The Lips have just boarded their tricked-out bus, aptly named Endeavor, in Memphis and will be zigzagging across the region in attempt to break Jay-Z’s Guinness World Record title for Most Live Concerts In 24 Hours (Multiple Cities) by hitting a total of eight cities to end in New Orleans. The band will travel to each new location just as the opening band is finishing its set, where they’ll perform a mini-set before moving on to the next location. The Lips will be joined by “Jackass” and “Wildboyz” star Chris Pontius, Jackson Browne, Neon Trees, Karmin, MNDR and a slew of additional artists. Fans at home can watch the entire journey from any screen and, naturally, interact, influence and play a part in the voyage as the band heads toward the final destination. The O Music Awards will be broadcast on MTV, VH1 and CMT and live-stream at OMusicAwards.com . The O Music Awards ceremony will give out 24 awards, one for each hour of the festival. Categories that artists are vying to win include Must Follow Artist on Twitter, Best Online Concert Experience, Most Adorable Viral Star, Fan Army FTW, Best Music App and Digital Genius Award.

‘The exes were the common denominator but not the show; they wanted to focus on us,’ Will Smith’s first wife, Sheree Fletcher, tells MTV News. By Kara Warner “Hollywood Exes” stars Mayte Garcia and Sheree Fletcher Photo: The stars of VH1’s “Hollywood Exes,” premiering tonight (June 27), knew they’d have to stand out from the pack of reality shows — and stand out they do. The show revolves around Nicole Murphy, Sheree Fletcher, Jessica Canseco, Andrea Kelly and Mayte Garcia. Their initial ground for group bonding is the fact that they all have famous ex-husbands. When MTV News caught up with three of the five lovely ladies, we asked what made them agree to let cameras into their personal lives. “The reason I decided to do the show was, first of all, the castmembers, the women,” said Garcia, who was married to Prince. “The idea that was pitched to me was it being about us. Yes, we were married to them, but we’re all individuals. I’m an artist, she’s an artist, she has a business. It’s about showing who we are, so I decided to do it. Especially after meeting [the show’s creators], I knew it was going to be good. I’m old enough now to trust my gut.” “I loved the vision of the creators,” added Fletcher, who was Will Smith’s first wife. “I loved their concept, like a sorority of sorts, women coming together with similar experiences, and that was kind of the common denominator. The exes were the common denominator but not the show; they wanted to focus on us. They wanted to see us in our many facets of life, be it moms or businesswomen or artists, what have you, and life after divorce. It’s got a lot of different dynamics, and I think it’s a very relatable show.” The ladies promised that the audience will get to see them go through good times and challenging times, and no matter what impression you may have had about them beforehand, they’ll win you over with their independent spirits, business savvy and strength. Watch “Hollywood Exes” Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT on VH1.
