• Slumber Party @EmmiesHouse: Emmie, the Brooklyn-based host of this web series, interviews her favorite artists straight from her own fan-crazed bedroom. Charli XCX, MS MR, and Betty Who have all been guests of Emmie and partook of slumber-party games, would-you-rather interviews and countless slices of pizza.

"Through these and other recent partnerships, Myspace is creating a digital ecosystem that provides a rich portal for users to access mainstream, grassroots, TV and Internet-only content," said Ron Nielsen, general manager, Myspace.

By augmenting the distribution of grassroots content and making more premium content accessible, we're working to create stronger connections between everyone involved or interested in the music and entertainment industry."
