She was meeting a few of her friends at a restaurant when a guy she barely knew looked into her eyes and asked her "Are you happy?". She knew that she truly wasn't, and those simple words really struck her.

Once again, Evanescence and My Chemical Romance get blamed on genre choice as album influenced kids continue to die. Yet another teenage suicide…Another finger pointed at the ‘darker’ sub-cultures like Emo and Goth. This month in the UK, two teenage girls at the tender ages 12 and 13 hanged themselves. Last year, Australia was rocked by the suicide pact of two 16 year old girls who went missing and were found hanging from a tree together. Many worried parents blame the uprising style of music. Bands like My Chemical Romance, Evanescence and lots more from the Emo and Gothic genres have been claimed guilty of ‘murder’. How far is this the truth? Can we actually blame the music and their darker content for pushing these young children off the edge?

Premieres Monday-Thursday, June 23-26 at 9pm and 10 pm each night
Kick off your Ugg boots and put down your iPods as VH1 brings you the next big hit in their hugely popular “I Love The” series: “I Love The New Millennium.” VH1 loves the 00’s so much that they couldn’t even wait for them to end, bringing viewers an all-new 8-part series covering the first 8 years of the new millennium (2000 – 2007.) From “Thong Songs” and Big Fat Greek Weddings, to wardrobe malfunctions and the “Big Mouth Billy Bass,” it’s all here, and our expert team of celebrities, musicians, actors, athletes, journalists and comedians are back to tackle every hard hitting issue you can imagine. For example: Where were all those weapons of mass destruction anyway? How did people watch television before TIVO? Who decided that trucker hats weren’t just for truckers anymore? And perhaps most importantly of all… who let the dogs out? VH1 will once again tap our collective memories and will revisit the good, the bad, and the funny. “I Love The New Millennium” will leave no stone unturned through retro clips from sitcoms, movies, music videos, TV commercials, network news and other sources. Join us as we travel back in time to an era when Brad Pitt was happily married to Jennifer Aniston. Angelina Jolie and Madonna had yet to start the mad adoption craze, and Britney Spears still had her s#!t together. And you thought there were no more decades left to love…
The show features new interviews with some of your favorite artists including:
* Amy Lee
* Emily King … read more »
