Celebs Help Launch LG's New Phone

LG held a special "Mobile TV Party" at Paramount Studios this week to celebrate the launch of the LG VX9400. If the celebrity status of the people that show up for such events is any indicator, this device looks to be a little less alluring and youthful than the Sidekick iD. Not that I don't have a soft spot in my heart for Brenda Walsh or Lauren Conrad, but you gotta admit the crowd was less, how shall I say this, "hip" than some launch parties.

Why were people like Scott Baio, Christopher Knight, Gary Coleman, Shannen Doherty and Alan Thicke in attendance? The LG VX9400 is one of the first handsets to support Mobile TV, which delivers programs from some of the biggest television networks to your cell. LG themed out the entire party recreating what they called three of television's most memorable shows "Brady Bunch, Star Trek and Happy Days." The VX9400 phone allows you to make calls, answer messages, and when finished, go right back to enjoying TV programs.

Could it be LC is turning in her beloved BlackBerry for a LG VX9400? Stop the press!

    Yay! Shannon Doherty! I was just thinking about her yesterday! (Not in a weird way - just inviting her to a fantasy celebrity dinner party Sticking out tongue ) I know a lot of people can't stand the borad, but I think she's the cat's pajamas.

    I just looked up the phone...it's not aesthetically pleasing at all. No wonder they only had stars of the past and today's d-listers to promote it.

    Bai ling ... I can't believe I even know her name
    argh! she's soo not cute AT ALL !!!
    I think she's cheap and skanky...
    .. on the tech side of the dilemma...
    those phones look like 1997 just popped back up ... I remember that one of my first phones had that ridiculously thick antenna end.
    LG needs to go back to the drawing board.
