If MTV Australia Were A LOLcat, Their Caption Would Be "Ur Sexual Preference, We Exploited It"

There is no font large enough to adequately express the epic eye-roll we did this morning while reading that MTV Australia is apparently so excited about the fact that VJ Ruby Rose is a lesbian (how could we forget) that they want to stage a girlie pash featuring Rose and The Veronicas at the upcoming MTV Awards.
Yes, MTV Australia is an equal opportunity employer - they'll use anyone's sexuality as a marketing tool!
Can we getta "PUH-LEAAAAASE" from the congregation, ladies and gentlemen?
Similar to the Britney Spears-Madonna saliva swap which made worldwide headlines in 2003, Confidential understands organisers are hoping for another staged pash between MTV VJ Ruby Rose and The Veronicas' Jess Origliasso.Does anyone else get the faintest whiff of sexual harassment in the workplace out of this? We're neither prudes nor killjoys, but could you imagine MTV Australia hearing that, say, one of its male presenters was gay, and trying to work a gay pash into the proceedings as a publicity stunt?Sources close to Rose confirmed producers were keen on the idea, which comes after the two set tongues wagging when they pashed in public at the Cleo Bachelor of the Year after party.
Whether the two pop princesses publicly restage their tonsil hockey remains to be seen on April 26.
It's time for the Australian media to realise that there's more to lesbianism than hot chicks pashing at parties!

I along with ALOT of others i know agree with your article. MTV are idiots for thinking this. Plus we also have proof that MTV did NOT approach the girls in any way shape or form. So Their article is a load of bull anyway.
Its clearly a publicity stunt for the awards in a week. Ridiculous because yes they are exploiting 2 girls when if it was done to 2 guys it would be treated way differently. It just wouldnt happen.
