“Scott Tenorman Must Die.”

Radiohead will be making an appearance on the Comedy Central animated show South Park on July 11, 2001. Here’s the details from Comedy Central:

Wednesday, July 11 at 10:00 p.m., world-renowned RADIOHEAD will make a special guest appearance on “South Park.” The band will play a vital role in Cartman’s plot for revenge against an offensive eighth grader in the show entitled, “Scott Tenorman Must Die.”

In “Scott Tenorman Must Die,” Cartman gets pubic hair. But Cartman doesn’t get just any pubes; he buys some from one of the older kids at South Park Elementary, Scott Tenorman. Cartman wants to show the other boys that he can be the first kid in the fourth grade with this mark of manliness, until everyone tells him that pubes don’t count unless he grows his own. Cartman seeks wicked revenge on Scott Tenorman when he won’t give him his money back.

Should be very interesting…

In more surprising news, Radiohead will be letting the International Olympic Committee use “I Might Be Wrong” for some TV spots during the Salt Lake City 2002 Winter Olympic Games in February. Here’s a snippet from an article at MTV.com:

“It’s not a money thing,” guitarist Ed O’Brien explained. “We don’t do adverts for socks or aftershave. The Olympic committee is a charitable organization. That’s why we’re doing it. If it’s sponsored by MasterCard, we’re not interested. But it’s advertising the spirit of the games.”
