Before Lady Gaga and Katy Perry, the pop charts were ruled by what seemed an endless line of blonde sorority sisters. MTV’s Total Request Live represents the era in which said sisters were still in their prime—Britney Spears had yet to be committed to a psychiatric ward, Christina Aguilera remembered the lyrics to all her songs, and Jessica Simpson could still fit into her Daisy Dukes. Tonight’s MTV Total Request Live Night, featuring DJ Moynilectric and DJ Bgeezy, will be a throwback to such times, a dance party fueled by TRL hits from the ’90s and ’00s. (This reporter’s guilty pleasure: Britney’s “Oops! I Did It Again.”) The crowd is sure to consist of unapologetic pop fans, so down a couple drinks and recreate your favorite MTV princess’ most epic dance routine. Chances are that everyone else on the floor has seen the same video and can collaborate with you. (21 and over.) ERIKA HOBART
