MTV's "True Life"
'I Have Embarrassing Parents'
This is the first ever TV appearance of the Elvis
Trooper and was filmed by MTV for a show called True Life. The
segment that our hero the Elvis Trooper appears in was filmed at the
Star Wars Celebration II (2002) convention in Indianapolis, IN. Our hero
actually has nothing to do with the story lines of the show except that
he was hanging out at the convention and got caught on tape (not that
that's a bad thing.) And while this is one of the shortest clips of the
Elvis Trooper it is probably his best known and has gotten him more
recognition that any other media spot so far. This is largely in part to
MTV rerunning this show many times over within the past few years (but
again that's not a bad thing at all.) The part of the story that deal
with Star Wars is actually very good and worth watching and for more
information on the real stars of this episode please visit our friends
site, the
MTV Jedi. Big thanks go out to MTV for including our hero the Elvis
Trooper and rerunning the hell out of this show! And a big
Thankyaverymuch goes to Charlie and his dad for making one of the best
Star Wars moments ever captured on tape.
