I know not too many of you like Lillix but that's besides the point. You guys know their newest video for "tomorrow"? Well it was doing so well on the countdown. Lillix was doing an in-studio with JoJo at kiis fm last night, and they were saying that one day their video got a million votes litterally, and TRL decided to take it off the voting list so we can't vote for it, because according to the idiots at TRL a million votes is "too many". I'm sure Britney get's a million votes every day...do you guys really think that if Britney got a million votes they'd cut her new video off the TRL list?
Isn't that rigged? I always knew trl was rigged but I didn't know how rigged until I heard about this...I thought getting a million votes would be a good thing...who knew.

UPDATE, UPDATE! Look at my signature! what I wrote underneath it! ahh! *dies* *dies again*

so I wake up put on my makeup pick up the phone...nobodies home....haha

1 million votes is a ton...but I don't understand why mtv would tak eit off unless of course they discoverved lillix people had the automated voting thing. I believe in the trl world thats illigal.

But whatever.

MTV = Stupid.

If it isn't Beyonce, Sean Paul, or Ja Rule they don't want to play it.

I feel quite confident that no video on TRL legitimatly gets a million votes. They don't have a million viewers every day I guarantee. If it got a million votes then it was likely being fixed by someone with technology and time on their hands.

Plus, Lillix sucks.

a MB?!? Most major MB's get maybe 100 unique hits a day!

Do you realize how many votes 1 million IS? Trust me, and Trust MTV when we both tell you that 1 million votes is abnormal and is the result of tampering.

DM Provides the answer.

As everyone knows MTV sucks and are lossing a good amount of viewers to VH1 daily. Okay, that has nothing to do with it but here.

TRL is allegidly a "viewer request" countdown LIVE the show is one hour long and airs immediatly after the voting period of phone votes. To have a 'toll free' phone number costs money per call. So to you the caller it costs nothing, to MTV it costs moola! TRL is not a 'viewer request' countdown infact it is a 'record label buys the number slot' countdown. In easy to understand words: Your votes don't matter. And since Lillix is getting so much hype and phone votes and all, NOT 1 MILLION, but alot, its costing more than average to pay for the toll free number, so they removed it from the web and the call list to save money.

Cheep bastards!

Well, I was assuming that if people didn't care about this topic they wouldn't reply...I mean if you don't care then move onto the next poll...just a thought.

lol, yeah that's exactly what they are if that is true, haha

but still...just because their cheap doesn't mean we (the fans) should be punished for it...I mean come on, MTV like never plays music, 90% of the reason why I watch TRL is because it's the only time I get to see videos from some of my favorite artist's besides vh1, it's just ridiculess in my opinion.
