MTV’s hottest young stars including Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola (Jersey Shore), Molly Tarlov (Awkward) and Jared Kusnitz (Underemployed) will walk the runway wearing some of the season’s latest fashions while viewers will get a sneak-peak at the fiercest trends for 2013! 

Additionally, artists Neon Trees and Karmin will take the crowd by storm with live performances of their latest hits.   To keep the party going all night, DJ KISS, a fashion icon in her own right having been awarded the “2012 Personal Style Award” by Elle Magazine and named one  of the “25 Most Stylish New Yorkers” by US Weekly, will spin the hottest tracks .

Karmin’s, Amy Heidemann and Nick Noonan took the internet by storm last year after posting a cover of Chris Brown’s “Look At Me Now” on YouTube. The clip instantly went viral and became one of YouTube’s most viewed videos of 2011. The duo has since racked up 200 million views for their videos with over 800,000 YouTube subscribers. Their first single “Brokenhearted” hit #1 on Billboard’s Heatseeker’s Chart, and Top 20 on Billboard’s Pop, Digital and Dance/ Club Play charts and hit the top ten at Top 40 Radio. The duo has since released their debut EP “Hello” and racked up over a half of a billion views for their videos.

Neon Trees have SoCal roots, but the band came together eight years ago when Tyler and his neighbor, guitarist Chris Allen, relocated to Provo, Utah, and hooked up with Elaine Bradley (drums) and bassist Branden Campbell. 

Their new album Picture Show was released this past April and features the hit “Everybody Talks” as well as “Lessons in Love, (All Day, All Night) which is a collaboration with Kaskade. 

Concerning the album Tyler says: “When we started working on Picture Show I discovered I’d become fearless,” Tyler continues ... “I love who our audience is; we don’t need to be anything other than who we are. That was an incredible realization. It freed us up. We’re unconstrained. We’re bolder.”  Neon Trees will be hitting the road in February supporting Maroon 5.
