NEW YORK (AP) — MTV is hoping this week is one for the books — the book of world records.
The network is hosting a series of events designed to set some standards, mostly for goofy fun. It begins today at 11 p.m. with a 24-hour Beyonce dance marathon outside of MTV’s New York headquarters. In the attempt to claim the Guinness World Record for longest dance relay marathon, dancers will get a nonstop Beyonce soundtrack.
On Wednesday, MTV is asking viewers and their cats to submit videos in an attempt to set a mark for most “meows” in a minute. The network will challenge its audience members to break some of their own personal records Thursday, and post evidence online with the hashtag (hash)EpicWin.
