Are you wanting to be on MTV´s Reality Series, TRUE LIFE?

MTV is currently casting and they are looking for people right now.

TRUE LIFE: I´M GOING ON VACATION
Are you planning your dream vacation? Bring True Life along! They are looking to document several unusual vacation adventures this winter. Going away with your significant other for the first time?

If you appear to be between the ages of 18 and 28 and both you and your travel companions are willing to let MTV follow you for the entire trip, e-mail vacation@mtvstaff.com and tell MTV your itinerary!

TRUE LIFE: I DON´T FIT IN
Are you an outcast in your own community?

We all feel like we don´t fit in sometimes, but they are looking for a true oddity. Are you the one Goth kid in your town or the only Muslim in an all Christian community? Is your disability separating you from the crowd? Do your cultural, religious, or physical differences make you feel like you´re trapped in a world where you are always the odd man/woman out?

However you don´t fit in, they want to show you being you. If you appear to be between the ages of 16 and 28 send your name, location, and story of being different to fitin@mtvstaff.com

TRUE LIFE: I´VE SEEN GOD
Have you had a vision or a spiritual experience that changed your life forever? Have you been afraid to tell people what happened?

E-mail MTV right away at seengod@mtvstaff.com. including your name, the best times to reach you, and of course your amazing tale.

Everyone wants to know if there´s really someone out there, so if you hold the proof, it´s time to let MTV know!

TRUE LIFE: I´M A GEEK
Geeks are no longer the kids in school without friends or a life. Geeks have united and formed a subculture all of their own. They´re everywhere -- from Geek conventions to participating in role playing games with other geeks in the back rooms of comic book stores to obsessing over the latest comic book trends, Geeks have found a way to "fit in" amongst themselves.

Are you proud to be a Geek? Do you plan on attending a big Nerd conference? Have you been playing role-playing games for months and are about to become the lead character? Do you and your other friends obsess over comic books and all their characters? Or do you make friends with other geeks online? If so, True Life wants to hear from you!

If you are a geek and appear to be between the ages of 18 to 28, please email MTV at geek@mtvstaff.com and tell them your story! Don´t forget to include your name, location, phone number and a recent picture of yourself.

TRUE LIFE: I´M ON METH
Crystal Meth is the most popular drug among young people in America attracting more than 12 million people a year to try it. Meth is a highly addictive and cheap drug that wreaks havoc on its users, their friends and family. Meth addicts quickly loose touch with reality and care about only one thing -- their next fix.

TRUE LIFE is exploring the stories of young people whose lives have been taken over by Meth. Are you a meth addict trying to quit? Have you just tried Meth for the first time? Are you always in constant search of the Crystal Meth high? Have you been to rehab for Meth and are now clean?

Will your children recognize their father or mother upon their return from Iraq? Are you concerned that being faithful will prove challenging on both sides?

TRUE LIFE: I´M MOVING TO LAS VEGAS

TRUE LIFE: I LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN
Living in a small town can certainly have its perks. You can leave your front door unlocked and stroll down Main Street greeting everyone by name. Sometimes a town has a unique odd ball sensibility that keeps things interesting but other times typical small town life can get cozy to the point of feeling stifling.

Are you the talk of the town and draw attention everywhere you go? Are you a city slicker just settling into a small town and finding it a challenge to adapt?

If you appear to be between the ages of 18-28 and live in an interesting small town, MTV would like to hear from you. Please e-mail MTV your name, age, location, picture and description of your small town life to Smalltown@mtvstaff.com

TRUE LIFE: STATEN ISLAND GIRL
To the outside world, Staten Island is best known for its landfills, colorful locals and the fact that Paris Hilton shot an episode of the Simple Life there. But natives know another story. They know that it´s such a great place to grow up that most young people live with their parents until they get married. They also know that despite its growing population finding that guy to marry can prove to be difficult. When it feels like dating a guy in Manhattan is a long distance relationship your options are limited.

TRUE LIFE wants to hear what it´s like to be a Staten Island girl. From trying to get a date on the island, to crossing the bridge in hopes of finding love, to the hardships of living with your parents, MTV would like to hear your story. Are you tired of the Staten Island stereotype and are trying to shake it off? Are you currently looking for a boyfriend and having trouble meeting guys you haven´t already dated? Are you bored out of your mind and want to move out, but are afraid of leaving your loved ones behind?

If you´re a Staten Island girl and appear to be between the ages of 18-28 and have a story to share, please e-mail MTV your name, age, location, picture and a brief of your situation to IslandGirl@mtvstaff.com

TRUE LIFE: I´M A CHEATER
MTV is looking for the ultimate player. Do you find it difficult to remain faithful to your partner? Are you proud of your player lifestyle? Are you thinking of starting a new relationship while still involved in another? Are you caught between two lovers and not sure who to choose? Are you dating more than one person and keeping it on the low? Sometimes people don´t want to cheat but feel compelled to stray -- and then find that juggling two or more partners can cause far more trouble than it´s worth. Are you lying and scheming to ensure you don´t get busted? Are taking on an extra job just to be able to entertain two or more partners? Are you feeling torn or do you just simply enjoy playing the field and aren´t ready to settle?

If you appear between the ages of 18 and 28 and are cheating (or know someone who is) and want to share your experience - MTV would like to hear from you. Please e-mail MTV your name, age, location, picture and a brief of your situation to TwoTimer@mtvstaff.com

Are you concerned that it will be hard to reconnect with loved ones and children who have no understanding of what you experienced overseas? Are you worried that it might be tough to find a job or get into college? Are you afraid that you´ll feel guilty that you´ve returned home while others you love are still fighting?

If so, MTV wants to hear your story about moving home from a war zone. If you appear to be 18-28 years old and are open to sharing the ups and downs of your re-entry into civilian life, please email MTV at ReturningFromDuty@mtvstaff.com Please remember to send your name, address, phone number and expected date of return.
