Hi Folks! Rest assured, this being Toronto and all, the great Kayvon of KayvonTV fame was indeed on the scene when the Pittsburgh Steelers arrived in Toronto last night to get ready for their preseason game at the Rogers Center against the Buffalo Bills.
I managed to get the good folks @ KayvonTV working overtime for you, and they have managed to put together my first of many KayvonTV episodes featuring The Pittsburgh Steelers and The Buffalo Bills.
In this video, I meet Pro Bowl Safety Troy Polamalu of long hair fame, I managed to ask Troy about various subjects, ranging from his thoughts on tomorrow’s game, to the possibility of him one day playing in the CFL. (The REAL football league)

Well our PEREZ FEST week ended with a bang! The final episode featuring Kayvon and Perez did not go unnoticed by the celebrity blogger extraordinaire. Perez Hilton, on his wildly successful blog, perezhilton.com posted a blog entry about the memorable meeting calling the video “funny and sweet.” When Hilton’s blog post linked to KayvonTV’s official YouTube channel - the views just exploded. KayvonTV was given the honour of being the #1 most watched channel on YouTube Canada for July 27th, 2008. KayvonTV thanks everybody for watching and for the hundreds of comments and notes of support (we even thank the few of you telling us the show sucks.) You’ve all helped push KayvonTV to it’s most successful month ever!

I first met “the Queen of All Media” Perez Hilton, one year ago at Hilary Duff’s 2007 MMVA after party. Our now classic KayvonTV was taped outside of that very party. This episode really helped launch KayvonTV into the public conscience and remains a fan favorite so far right to this very day in time! A real clip for the ages indeed!!

Perez Hilton was in Toronto once again to attend the 2008 version of the same awards, this time however he hosted his very own after party in the heart of little Italy. I really thought we hit it off on our earlier meeting and I couldn’t let the opportunity pass me by to once again grace the Queen of all media with my incredible presence.

Here it is folks, My second final broadcast from Perez Hilton’s MMVA afterparty, In this episode I interview Daniel Victor of the super group, The Never Ending White Lights, I also manage to get up to the one and only Perez Hilton as he is leaving the party.
Perez appears to be very rude to me and even slams the door of his taxi in my face, however don’t worry folks, there is still one more episode of Perez Fest ‘08 to go, and lets just say that I don’t take no for an answer very well.
So make sure you stay tuned to KayvonTV in the coming days, as we will post the Perez Fest ‘08 finale very soon. Same KayvonTV time, Same KayvonTV URL…

This week is dedicated to my one and only best friend forever, Perez Hilton. Yes folks, THAT Perez Hilton! Not to be mixed up or confused in any way, shape, or form with his female socialite counterpart namesake of Paris Hilton! He, unlike her, is in fact the undisputed Queen of all media!
Continuing on with our Perez Fest ‘08 coverage, I present to you my second meeting with alleged Illuminati members, The Committee, which took place deep in the heart of Toronto’s Little Italy @ Perez Hilton’s MuchMusic Video Award After Party.
Don’t forger that we are posting a brand new episode everyday throughout Perez Fest ‘08, so stay tuned to KayvonTV folks! Who knows? Maybe Perez and I even shall meet once again…Don’t touch that dail, same KayvonTV time, same KayvonTV place.

Hey Folks, Only 1 more episode till the big one, that’s right folks, my instant classic 2nd meeting with the Queen of All Media, Mr.Perez Hilton. In this video, I interview up and coming Toronto band, Three Star Seed @ Perez Hilton’s official MuchMusic Video Award afterparty.

Hope you enjoy this one, I bust some of my trademark dance moves, so for all your ladies out there who keep writing me to tell me I should dance more, this one’s for you babe!
I also want to point out how superfantastic all the comments and feedback have been on Perez Week ‘08, Thank you to everyone who has watched and who continues to watch..

It was most wonderful really to run into one of the prides of jolly old England in none other than Mel C of the Spice Girls @ Perez Hilton’s official MMVA afterparty. Melanie was very kind enough to grant yours truly an exclusive, one-of, rare KayvonTV interview.
A true treasure & geniune fan favourite indeed! Rock on Miss Chisholm! Girl Power!

Here is my interview with the very gracious and also very attractive members of Girlicious, the fast-rising American pop girl group formed by Robin Antin on the reality television series The Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious in 2008. The group consists of Nichole Cordova, Tiffanie Anderson, Chrystina Sayers and Natalie Mejia, and they were all nice enough to take the time out of their hectic schedule to grace KayvonTV with an interview while at Perez Hilton’s official MMVA 2008 afterparty.

This week is dedicated to my one and only best friend forever, Perez Hilton. Yes folks, THAT Perez Hilton! Not to be mixed up or confused in any way, shape, or form with his female socialite counterpart namesake of Paris Hilton! He, unlike her, is in fact the undisputed Queen of all media! He is the one with the superfantastic blog.
To kick Perez Hilton Week off, I am pleased to present my now legendary classic first meeting with Perez from last years MMVA’s. This episode really helped launch KayvonTV into the public conscience and remains a fan favourite so far right to this very day in time! A real clip for the ages indeed!!
We all know that Perez was recently in Toronto to attend the MMVA’s and to also once again host his own official afterparty for it. KayvonTV’s Perez Hilton week will indeed include coverage of that very party of which we have already aired my Mel C interview as well as my chance meeting with Girlicious .
We will post an episode for all to see each day throughout Perez Hilton week, so stay tuned to KayvonTV folks! Don’t touch that dial! Who knows? Maybe Perez and I even shall meet once again…..

It’s true folks! Mr.Gene Simmons does indeed make his return appearance to KayvonTV!! I am proud to report that this time around he was much nicer & more kind to us! (Must possibly have something to do with the fact that he was being paid to be nice or polite by the great folks at Franks Energy Drink)
Mr.Simmons went out of his way to be accommodating toward everyone that was in the 7-11 convenience store for his promotional appearance on behalf of Frank’s there, and I am very proud to report that Gene finally posed for that all important picture with me that he so graciously ignored way earlier back in the month of May.(watch KayvonTV’s first run-in with Gene)
It was great to run into the legendary Rock God himself once again! He even personally asked me about KayvonTV which was Super Fantastic really!! Cheers to the legendary ‘Demon’ of the ‘Hottest Band In The World’ & the money savvy bass guitarist with the longest tongue going! Lick it up folks!!!

What a treat it was to be on the Red Carpet @ Perez Hilton’s official MuchMusic Video Awards afterparty. Yours truly got to meet tons of great people and was even offered a side gig to front some rock band that I had never even heard of.
The only downside of the whole entire night was missing out on meeting a true hero of mine; Seth McFarlane. That’s right folks!! The artistic genius who created Family Guy and brought this now massively popular cult cartoon show of his to the worldwide masses by way of the 20th Century Fox bigwigs!

Unfortunately for myself, I was too wrapped up in making a mockery of myself in front of a band of who’s name I can’t even remember at this point!

If you look at this video closely, you will notice Seth walk right into the KayvonTV frame while we are rolling, don’t worry folks I had “the powers that be” slow the footage down and zoom in after the clip, just in case you, like KayvonTV, missed Seth the first time around.

Utmost proof that the great creator is indeed in our fair town! Props to you Mr. McFarlane, you have managed to avoid KayvonTV’s radar, at least for the time being!

The Boston contingent celebrates once again! The Boston Celtics have won the NBA championship over the likes of Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers! Props to my main man, Paul Pierce!
We are the Champions, We are the Champions, No time for losers ’cause We are the Champions, Of the World!
Yes Sir!!

I was sad to hear that legendary director, actor, and producer Mr. Sydney Pollack passed away yesterday. I have had the honour and privilege to meet the man on several occasions as he made his way into my fine city of Toronto. My amazing encounter with Mr. Pollack from The Toronto Film Festival a couple years back was actually the basis for the VERY FIRST episode of KayvonTV.com. We have decided to re-post that episode today to remember the man who brought us Out of Africa, Tootsie, and so much more. Cheers Sydney!

As many of you folks already know… I am across the pond right now visiting back home in England. One of the highlights of my trip is to attend the premiere at Southampton’s Harbour Lights theatre of Hugh Cornwell’s first movie project - BLUEPRINT. To celebrate the occasion of Hugh’s new film we post this episode of KayvonTV when I had the chance and honour to sit down with Hugh a few months back while he was touring in Toronto for a wide ranging interview. We touched on many subjects from Mr. Cornwell’s early fame with The Stranglers to his present day solo career. Enjoy!

My attempts to get into Import Fest 2008 to watch me a Hip-Hop concert featuring my good friend, Imaan Faith, failed miserably. KayvonTV’s ability to crash gates continues to be an area that I feel we need to work better to improve on, too bad my good friend, Rocket, wasn’t working security folks!! Then we would have gotten in for sure.
Since we were not going to get into import fest, my producer John suggested that I try my hand at the GrandPrix Kartways Go-Kart course located at Downsview Park. Being such a control freak, I have never driven a car before and I was mighty scared to try.
All in all a real fun day, we even stopped at the legendary California Sandwiches on Chestwood Drive afterwards for a quick bit. It was my first time trying California’s and despite all the hype, I felt that veal back home was way more preferable.
Good thing I am on my way to England tomorrow folks!! too bad my production team can’t afford to come along (i.e. sponsorship), it promises to be a really swell and don’t worry we have even managed to figure out a way to record it all thanks to the good folks at Quickpod!
God speed everybody!! Let’s hope England is ready for the return of KayvonTV!!

With the NHL’s Stanley Cup Playoffs in full gear, I figured this would be the perfect time to post my interview with former NHL great Paul Coffey. Paul is known as one of the greatest offensive defenceman of all-time. Paul played for the NHL’s Pittsburgh Penguins, Hartford Whalers, Philadelphia Flyers, Detroit Red Wings, and most notably, the Edmonton Oilers, where he teamed with Mr.Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier, and my favorite hockey player of all-time, Glenn Anderson to win several Stanley Cups.
Coffey gave me the low down on his retirement plans, his childhood playing days with my good buddy Rocket, and his thoughts on Mark Messier being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
What a great guy! an absolute legend in the flesh folks! This guy has won Stanley Cups with both Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, and helped redefine the roll of a defenceman in the modern NHL.

It was a great thing to hear that one of my childhood buddies, Imaan Faith, was rising to the top of Canada’s Hip-Hop scene. It didn’t take long for Imaan Faith to become one of hip-hop’s most innovative personalities, bringing with him a story that sounds like a folktale from his Muslim heritage. Born and raised in politically-charged Iran, he was immigrating to New York in the early 1990’s that first brought rap culture to Imaan’s attention. Often donating food to youth centres across the city from his family’s new Tehran cookery, Imaan began seeing comparisons between the poverty of minorities in America and those in his former home of the Middle East.
Fleeing to Canada in the late 1990’s to avoid anti-Muslim hate crimes that began spreading in New York, Imaan’s family was shocked to find similar anti-Muslim sentiments in Toronto, which soon led to Imaan being placed in a detention facility for repeated fighting.
When a drug dealer appointed himself Imaan’s personal bodyguard after hearing him freestyle to fight off anti-Muslim inmates, Imaan began to see hip-hop as a true calling and spent the rest of his incarcerated months writing dozens of songs ranging from aids awareness (”You Got A Choice”) to current events (”Letter For Tookie”).
Fresh off the release of his new album, “Let the Truth be known”, Imaan is a truly great Canadian Talent and KayvonTV will continue to follow the career of GUTZ Records brightest rising star!

Props to my main man, Marshall Mathers, aka Slim Shady for writing these mad sick disgusting rhymes. Mad Respect, to Johnny B’s in Whitby, Dr.Dre, Fitty Cent, Banks and the whole entire G-Unit. Last but not least I wanna send love to Rocket, Wiff, Burger, and the entire BnS crew, I couldn’t of done it without your support!

With the National Hockey League’s Stanley Cup Playoffs in full bloom, I thought this would be the perfect time to flash back to last years’ NHL Awards and my surprise encounter with none other than “Mr.Hockey” himself, the legendary Gordie Howe.
Gordie is one of the greatest players to ever lace up the skates! He is an NHL Hall of Famer who played for the Detroit Red Wings and Hartford Whalers of the National Hockey League (NHL). Mr.Hockey also played with the Houston Aeros and New England Whalers in the World Hockey Association (WHA).
The funny or ironic thing was that I bumped into former NHL great and one of Gordie’s longtime fellow teammates in none other than Mr. Tony McKegney! Unfortunately, however, the focus and attention I had on Mr.McKegney seemed to all of a sudden have abruptly ended when Mr.Howe’s presence became known outside of the stage door of the storied Elgin & Winter Garden Theatre in downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada! In fact, the hockey fans gathered around outside there were in absolute awe and a frenzy was soon let loose on the beloved hockey god himself! Quite the scene it was there indeed!
I also ran into Tyler Stewart of legendary Toronto band, the Barenaked Ladies. Mr.Stewart was indeed very happy to see me! We chatted for a bit with each other! It was fantastic really! I just hope he remembered to say hi to my fellow Englishman and former NHL great, Mr. Steve ‘Stumpy’ Thomas! I do really admire Stumpy and his charismatic ways! For afterall, he was one of the true gentlemen and consumate professionals (much like Mr.Hockey and the Great One) to ever have played in both the American Hockey League (AHL) and the NHL during his fantastic career! A real competitor and gritty leader he was in the sport of ice hockey nonetheless, who was the heart n’ soul of the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Chicago Blackhawks for many years during his time in the NHL!
All in all a great night it truly was and a really fun time had by all in attendance that evening! Pure magic! In fact folks, I can hardly wait for the 2008 edition of the NHL Awards ceremonies here in Hockey Town to start all over again! Quite simply put: the NHL still is the coolest game on earth! Cheers to the legend of Mr.Hockey! Game On!

Well hopefully the curse works for tonights NBA playoff game folks!!! Hopefully Chris Bosh, TJ Ford, Andrea Bargnani, Anthony Parker, Jose Calderon and the rest of the Toronto Raptors show up tonight for coach Sam Mitchell against the Orlando Magic, led by NBA all-stars, Dwight “Superman” Howard, Hedo Turkoglu, Rashard Lewis, and Jameer Nelson. Sorry I can’t write much write now, I am on my way to my favorite British Pub to watch the game. The Raptors really need the W tonight, so lets go Raptors!!! Superman must die!!

Well I have always enjoyed a good trip to McDonald’s, good ‘ol Micky Dee’s as I like to call it. I especially enjoy the McRib sandwich, but I still can’t figure out what they make it from. Could it possibly be beaver?
The McRib is a cultural icon, having been lampooned in everything from the Simpson’s, to Saturday Night Live. I guess this is KavyonTV’s turn at bat. Perhaps it is ostrich meat? Whatever it is, it is damn good, Ronald McDonald defiantly did something right with that one.
Thanks for checking this video out, if anyone wants I have several McRib’s that are sitting in the KayvonTV office ready for you to eat, quite the value considering they discontinued the McRib in Canada on April 7th.

Hey Folks!! What a super fantastic time I had at the Comic Fan Expo held at the Metro Toronto Convention Center. I caught up with some great names including Jake Lloyd, Chad Vader, George A Romero, and Adam West among others. (not to mentions some strange and interesting creatures)
I also had to chance to introduce a brand new character to KayvonTV, and I am a character so I figured there is always room for one more, that’s right folks!! The Bling Bling Bunny and I be macking your hoes and chopping your chedda.
Hope you enjoy part one of our trip through the Comic Fan Expo, Stay tuned to KayvonTV.com for more great segments!

The NBA playoffs are fast approaching, so I thought this would be a appropriate time for us to post an episode featuring a memorable encounter that I had with NBA legend Moses Malone, that’s right folks, the “Mailman” himself.
Moses Malone was a first ballot Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer and was named one of the 50 greatest basketball players in NBA history.
He was a 3 time NBA MVP, 12 time NBA All-Star, and ranks third all-time behind only Wilt Chamberlain and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for most points scored. He was also the first player to ever go directly from high school to the pros, whem at the age of 18 he signed with the Utah Stars of the now defunked ABA.
Needless to say I am a big fan of the Mailman, so it was a real thrill to see him in the flesh boarding the team bus before the Philadelphia Sixers faced the Toronto Raptors at the Air Canada Center.
I wish he would have been a bit nicer to me, maybe signed an autograph or two for me, perhaps like his former teammate (and current Sixers coach) Maurice “Mo” Cheeks was.
Well you can win them all Folks, after all this is Toronto, where even megastars like myself can’t score Raptors playoff tickets!!
GO RAPS!!!

With the success of Wyclef Jean’s new album, the Carnival Vol. II: Memoirs of an Immigrant, and with his latest single “the Sweetest Girl” topping the charts for the last couple months, I thought this would be the perfect time to look back on the night that I caught up with the great Wylcef Jean at Matt Damon’s OneXOne Charity Event at the brand new Opera House in Downtown, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Mr.Jean had some cool things to say about the Carnival Vol. II, which features everyone from Mary J. Blige to Paul Simon to Chamillionaire. With production by T.I. and will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, this album has been burring a hole through CD decks everywhere since it’s release, an instant classic I highly recommend copping it.
Hope you enjoy the interview, Stay tuned to KayvonTV for more great episodes!!

Well here it is folks! I have been meaning to clear up this whole “He’s not truly British” business for a while and I think that this episode of KayvonTV will do just that. If I was not British, then why would I partake in a little pass time know as high tea?
This video also concludes our coverage (for now) of this years Canadian Music Week. What a great CMW it was folks, we caught up with Alanis, the Rza, KRS-ONE, Moby and so many other great people that my head hurts trying to remember them all.
Make sure you stay tuned to KayvonTV in the up-coming months as we will post more great interviews from CMW, including my interview with Will Strickland and my memorable encounter with Perez Hilton’s favorite new band, The Mission District.
So,Ta Ta for now, hope that you all enjoyed my trip through Canadian Music Week, and remember, I’M BRITISH BITCHES!!!

It was a great honour and thrill to be in attendance at this years Canadian Music Industry Hall of Fame induction to watch none other then Alanis Morisette accept her lifetime achievement award.
I had many questions to ask the great Alanis Morissette, I wanted to find out for myself if my favorite show from back in the day, “You Can’t Do This On Television”, might be poised for a comeback.
Congratulations Alanis, you have been a shining light for the Canadian music scene since your glam rock days, it was a pleasure to finally meet you.

Immediately following my memorable encounter with KRS-ONE at Canada Music Week, I bumped into a most interesting fellow in the lobby of the Royal York hotel.
At first I thought he might be one of those evil Scientology guys, who for all I know might be following me around however it turned out to be none other then the great Minista Zin Uru from the Temple of Hip-Hop and all he wanted to do was to inform me about the gospel of the Temple.
The Temple of Hip-Hop was founded in 1996 By KRS-ONE, with the support of Professor Z, Chuck D, Big Daddy Kane, Kool DJ Herc, Afrika Bambaataa, Fat Joe, and many others, KRS-ONE also wrote a book that I urge you all to read entitled “The Gospel of Hip-Hop”, the book contains lot of real life pointers that might help you through your day.
For instance, did you know that Rap is something you do, but Hip-Hop is something you live?
What a great thing this Hip-Hop temple is, now only I could find myself the temple of new wave rock, then I’d be straight.
