MTV Documents the Struggle of Substance Abuse in 'Gone Too Far' MTV Documents the Struggle of Substance Abuse in 'Gone Too Far' RECOVERING ADDICT DJ AM OFFERS YOUNG ADDICTS A CHANCE AT TREATMENT One-Hour Series Hosted and Developed by Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein Premieres Monday, October 5 at 10pm ET/PT for Eight Episode Season PASADENA, Calif., July 29 -- In the grip of addiction, where do you draw the line between a person who can be rehabilitated and one who is beyond help? "Gone Too Far" - an MTV one-hour series developed and hosted by Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein, produced by Ish Entertainment and Gigantic! Productions - explores this question. Premiering Monday, October 5 at 10pm ET/PT, the eight-episode series will document young adults between the ages of 18-25 as they struggle with substance abuse and the devastating addictions that threaten to destroy them and the people who love them most. One of the most sought-after DJs in the world, DJ AM is uniquely qualified to help young addicts as he too has suffered from multiple addictions, weight problems and depression. DJ AM is mostly known for spinning at Hollywood events and clubs around the world, as well as for his miraculous survival after a deadly plane crash in 2008. However, he is also a long-time recovering drug addict who privately battled an addiction to crack cocaine for six years. DJ AM now seeks to help other young addicts get off their deadly paths and onto the road to recovery. The intense and eye-opening series features real addicts in crisis whose families are desperate to get them the help they need. Each episode will feature DJ AM meeting with the addicts, friends and families to explore their willingness to change. Through interviews and self-shot video from the addicts and families, the severity of the addiction and its crushing impact is exposed. In unexpected twists, DJ AM often uncovers and reveals new information that even those closest to the addicts are unaware. Finally, in an intervention led by a certified addiction specialist, DJ AM brings everyone together to offer the addict the once-in- a-lifetime chance for a drug-free life. If they decide to accept his help, they are immediately escorted to some of the best rehab facilities in the country. Along the road to recovery, DJ AM makes time to see how their rehabilitation is progressing, providing a raw and honest look at their new sobriety. No addict's story is the same and every path to becoming sober is different. Only time will tell if they ever come back from having gone too far. "Substance abuse is an issue that our audience consistently struggles with and through his own battle with addiction, DJ AM knows first-hand the innate chaos drug dependency can inflict on addicts and their loved ones," said Tony DiSanto, President of Programming for MTV. "He's an inspiration and amazing proof that it's never too late to reverse the devastation. That type of positivity is something inherent to our viewers today and we're not just documenting the journey to recovery, but also trying to change the lives of those we follow." "I struggled for years as a drug addict and was fortunate to get help when I asked for it. I have managed to live a clean and sober life, something that takes work and something that I pride myself on. 'Gone Too Far' is my platform to help people, like I was helped - by giving back in a way," said Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein. "The MTV audience was the perfect place for me to do this, as they are in the homes of so many who struggle and who may not know how to find the help they need. As much as I pray that each of the people that I've helped in each episode stay sober and get clean, I wanted the MTV audience to know that addiction is not something to take lightly. We wanted to show how real it gets and what can happen if you don't get help." Viewers seeking additional information and resources on substance abuse and addiction issues can log on to SubstanceAbuse.MTV.com. Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein is one of the world's biggest DJs. His name is synonymous with what's happening in both music and pop culture in Los Angeles, New York, Las Vegas & Miami as today's most in demand DJ as well as a fixture in the night life scene. In April 2009, DJ AM took up residency at RAIN in Las Vegas on Friday nights. His schedule has him traveling the world over to play special engagements in clubs, private parties and corporate events. Most recently, DJ AM has partnered with Travis Barker (Blink 182) to perform a live DJing/drumming set, something that has never been done before. For years, he has been in demand by everyone in the music business and his work has appeared on albums for Madonna and Will Smith, just to name a few. Additionally, the film industry seeks him out as well and DJ AM's will star as himself in "Iron Man 2." Please visit www.djam.com for more info.

  • Early Working Draft Raw Materials, Creative Works, and Cultural
    Early Working Draft Raw Materials, Creative Works, and Cultural Hierarchies Andrew Gilden In disputes involving creative works, courts increasingly ask whether a preexisting text, image or persona has been used as “raw material” for new authorship. If so, the accused infringer becomes shielded by the fair use doctrine under copyright law or a First Amendment defense under right of publicity law. Although copyright and right of publicity decisions have begun to rely heavily on the concept, neither the case law nor existing scholarship has explored what it actually means to use something as “raw material,” whether this inquiry adequately draws lines between infringing and non- infringing conduct, or how well it maps onto the expressive values that the fair use doctrine and the First Amendment defense aim to capture This Article reveals serious problems with the raw material inquiry. First, a survey of all decisions invoking raw materials uncovers troubling distributional patterns; in nearly every case the winner is the party in the more privileged class, race or gender position. Notwithstanding courts’ assurance that the inquiry is “straightforward,” distinctions between raw and “cooked” materials appear to be structured by a range of social hierarchies operating in the background. Second, these cases express ethically troubling messages about the use and reuse of text, image and likeness. The more offensive, callous and objectionable the appropriation, the more visibly “raw” the preexisting material is likely to be. Given the shortcomings of the raw material inquiry, this Article argues that courts should engage more directly with an accused infringer’s actual creative process and rely less on a formal comparison between the two works in dispute.

  • Fame Us Introduction
    FAME US INTRODUCTION Brian Howell A while ago, I started taking pictures of celebrity impersonators after a string of chance encounters with look-alikes. When I began researching the subject, I had no idea that so many people made a living at it. I became intrigued, and as a result, this project was born. I attended a number of conventions for the celebrity imper- sonator industry; there are two major gatherings a year: Las Vegas in the spring and Orlando, Florida in the fall. The impersonators are there to showcase their tal- ent and to network with others in the industry; the conventions are like any other, except that on any given day, you might see George W. Bush hamming it up with Ozzy Osbourne, or bump into Marilyn Monroe wearing her dress from The Seven Year Itch, except there is no subway air vent to blow it up to her waist. Impersonation is a full-time career for many of the people who appear in this book. Some of them make a great living at it, including a few who look more like the ce- lebrity they impersonate than the actual celebrity himself. While getting to know them better, I’ve learned that the biggest misconception about impersonators is that they are somehow obsessed fans desperate to physically become the celebrity they impersonate. But I never met anyone like that. On the contrary, many imper- sonators got into the business because of others—those passersby on the street who stop and stare, and ask, “Has anyone ever told you you look like…?” Simply put, and not in a derogatory way, impersonators are opportunistic, taking advan- tage of a culture with an insatiable, uncontrollable thirst for celebrity and all that it entails.
