MySpace ReUps BoobMates Roommates
Fans of blatant product placement and scantily clad women can rejoice as MySpace is “proud to announce” the launch of season Roommates: Season Two!
According to MySpace, the first season scored more than six million views. Show sponsor Ford is back, guaranteeing that a Focus or F150 will make a cameo at some point, and Freshlook Color Contacts have signed on as a sponsor as well, meaning someone will experiment with different eye colors soon.
MySpace will continue to co-develop the series along with Iron Sink Media, giving the social network creative control over the show. Why they are proud of this, I’m not sure, but right there in the press release the MySpace touts its involvement with casting, “story” development, and wardrobe — because someone needs to select those bikinis.
