Gnarles Barkley Video Delay
Posted in FUNNY, Gnarles Barkley, New Single, Rumor, Video on the March 10, 2008
Gnarles Barkley’s video for their new single ‘Run’ can’t air on TV just yet. The video is suffering through some delays not because of nudity or excessive violence that needs to be remedied. What needs to be redone are the strobe features in the video because they are said to induce seizures. Stuff airing on TV needs to pass a Harding Test which was established to prevent images from triggering epileptic seizures. The video apparently failed the test. Gnarles Barkley’s Danger Mouse says the he’s hopeful that the situation can be resolved soon. He says “I don’t know exactly what’s going on, but we’re having issues. I think [the video] is cool. It works for me. But I’m not necessarily that easily seasick”

And pisses off execs at NBC in the process.
Sources say Mariah Carey, her manager Benny Medina,and reps at Def Jam are on the NBC bad list. Seems they promised that Mariah would do an appearance and performance on Today to promote her new album E=MC2. Instead, she’s going to be on ABCs Good Morning America, a rival show.
No word yet on how NBC will retaliate!
