Year: 2007

The upcoming season of MTV’s “Pimp My Ride” will be its last.

The network said Wednesday that the auto-centric series, hosted by rapper Xzibit, will return for its final season at 10:30 p.m. Sunday. (The final eight episodes previously aired in a June 9 marathon, a strategy MTV sometimes employs to generate buzz for shows ahead of their regular weekly time-slot premiere.)

“Ride” will be paired up with new car-makeover competition series, “Trick It Out,” hosted by former “American Idol” contestant Becky O’Donohue, which debuts at 10 p.m. Sunday.

Xzibit rocked the mic today at the Tokyo concert of Live Earth – the Concert to raise awareness of the effects of Climate Change.

“This is something that is going to live beyond us, go past us,” said U.S. rapper Xzibit, speaking in Japan.

“When my son and the rest of the world’s children inherit the Earth, I want them to have something they can hold on to, not something that’s falling apart, on the brink.”

10,000 turned up at the Makuhari Messe hall outside Tokyo. Live Earth hopes to reach up to two billion people through radio, television and Internet.
