Malaysia – MTV Asia, a unit of Viacom Inc., has announced the hunt for the first MTV World Stage Insider, who will represent fans and introduce them to the MTV experience from the inside, via minute-by-minute updates, videos, tweets, and pictures of MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2013, with an engagement fee worth US$10,000.

The campaign targets music fans from aged 18 years of age, from Malaysia and around Southeast Asia, who already have an existing blog, an extended social presence (i.e. Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook) and ideally have experienced one of the MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia concerts in the last four years. 

Applicants are required to submit a creative social media resume in a video or blog entry to MTV, telling or showing MTV what makes them the right candidate for the role. 

“Each year, we challenge ourselves to make MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia bigger and better, where it is not only about showcasing the hottest artists, but creating unique LIVE experiences too. Last year’s show was touted as the most social ever with an on-ground Instagram wall and 10 days of tweet reporting leading up to the event,” said Sian Ju Tan, Vice President of MTV & Comedy Central Brands, Viacom International Media Networks Asia. “As we celebrate our fifth anniversary this year, we are upping the ante with our fans engagement as we hunt for the personality who will immerse his or herself in the MTV Experience, amplifying that passion and representing the fans by showcasing what they want to see and hear from this much-socially talked about event in Malaysia. We’re looking for the MTV World Stage Insider who possesses the stamina of a Spartan, as it’ll be ten days of hard, but very fun, work!”

This year’s MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia at Surf Beach, Sunway Lagoon on September 8, 2013 will feature a line-up that includes acts by Robin Thicke, Far East Movement, EXO and Joe Flizzow.
