    Bollyville, U.S.A: The Commodification of the Other and MTV’s Construction of the “Ideal Type” Desi Murali Balaji When the Music Television Network launched MTV Desi in 2005, it promised to bridge the divide between South Asian Americans and their counterparts in the Indian subcontinent.1 This study looks at how MTV Desi tried to create an “ideal type” South Asian American through its programming, presenting an image of South Asian Americans as loving “Bhangra but also Shakira… MTV but also Bollywood.” The author seeks to articulate the political economy of identity by describing MTV’s attempts to define and commodify “Desi-ness.” The author also attempts to explain why MTV Desi ultimately failed and how marginalized audiences can resist commodification by rejecting corporate- defined identity. n its 25-plus years of existence, the Music Television Network has been one of the primary forces in shaping global youth culture and cultivating youth identity.2 The Viacom-owned network’s influence has been so expansive that MTV programs are now a staple of youth consumption in every corner of the Iworld. 3 MTV, in many ways, is popular culture, indulging its viewers with the lav- ishness of consumerism and breeding a loyal following among an age group that varies from impressionable pre-teens to middle-age voyeurs. MTV in the United States has traditionally targeted white, suburban teenagers, and as its content para- digm has shifted away from music videos and into new “reality”-based program- ming, the network has expanded its reach into movies and even books. In many ways, the network has evolved into an “all-encompassing ‘lifestyle’ channel for its young targeted audience.”4 MTV’s success in shaping culture has been so prevalent that the network itself is synonymous with cool.

This report responds to the request of the Senate Commerce Committee by focusing on advertising placement in popular teen media and disclosure of rating and labeling information in advertising. The report details commission findings indicating that the movie and electronic game industries have taken steps to better communicate rating information to parents, and that the game industry and a number of movie studios ave placed some specific limits on ad placements to avoid targeting youth. The music industry is beginning to include the parental advisory in advertising, but has not taken steps to limit advertising to children.

From American Bandstand to Total Request Live : Teen Culture and Identity on Music Television Kaylyn Toale American Studies Senior Thesis Fall 2010 Prof. Amy Aronson, Prof. Edward Cahill Toale 1 “When we started the show… there weren’t any teenagers,” remarked Dick Clark to The Washington Post in 1977. “They were just miniatures of their parents. They didn’t have their own styles. They didn’t have their own music. They didn’t have their own money. And now, of course, the whole world is trying to be a kid.” 1 The show to which he refers, of course, is American Bandstand, which paved the way for Total Request Live (TRL) and other television shows which aimed to distribute popular music to young audiences. Here, Dick Clark situates the intersection of music and television as an entity that provides great insight into the social dynamics, the media experience, and the very existence of teenagers in the United States.

And if you look historically right through the present day its social movements, movements for social justice, movements for peace, for democracy invariably popular music has played a large role in communicating ideas through songs, popular songs, just sort of unifying people, bringing people together. It has a very rich important tradition and legacy that still exists today. But even though music is the popular medium, it's the people's medium, it really isn't the people's medium in our society today, it's the property of four or five companies who have inordinate control over what sort of music gets produced and what sort of music doesn't and it made it much more difficult for it to be the people's medium and this is the problem we face.

This report responds to requests of the Congressional Committees on Appropriations and from 18 representatives by documenting progress regarding advertisement placement in popular teen media and disclosure of rating and labeling information in advertising. The report details findings that there were virtually no ads for R-rated movies in popular teen magazines, with only one ad for an R-rated video advertised in two teen-oriented magazines.
