MTV STILL says I am to old for 2ne1 Concert

[Jungied]

Thats just messed up, screw MTV, US!!!

MTV is so superficial and so are most of their sleezy shows like "Jersey Shore"!!!

[Polishswimmer93]

Funny cause when I went we saw an old man, yes a old man with white hair walk in.

[2ne1usa]

@Polishswimmer93 I ended up having a ligit invite. I was outside in line when they pulled me out of line and had pictures of me from this site. They said I was too old and asked me to leave.

[ArielPotter1810]

that was so sad :|

Stupid policy

[TheSunStillSleeps15]

Im sorry :/

[TheKickeur]

if this continues

be imposed in kpop singers to sing in English as

they will become a copy of American artist

I have 36ans french, I love the 2ne1

[ValentinaVideos]

That's too bad. I feel like this is another reason why kpop in America is progressing slower than it potentially can. With so much of it aimed after poor teenage girls, it's a wonder they think they can get any profit at all.

[SuperYT4Ever]

WTF?!?!?!?!

[KYUNGILNAM]

"too old"? it is a discrimination!!!

[Vainkill]

i think mtv is pandering to peoples sensitivity. Since 2ne1 has many young followers and its members, 2 of them at least are young and the 2 oldest dara and bom looks young it does give an impression that they don't have older fans. and if they do it would appear ridicolous and innapropriate especially if its men.. if you know what i mean. overall this put older fans on a disadvantage and cannot do much but to be a closet fans

[LemnzestManatee]

Wow that's complete discrimination. Is there any chance that you could press legal charges for agism? Even if you don't get anything (which you won't), the press might put pressure on MTV to remove that age limit.

[lainglaan]

WOW thats just some fuckin discrimination there. Whether its Race or Age, music is for everyone, music is a gift that unites people as it relatively transcends cultural boundaries. no person has the right to separate unity and people from music.

[jetscreamer100]

Jeez I'm 56 and I guess I would have been shot on sight.Its a fucking shame but i feel ya.I listen to Kpop every day and I'll continue listening and to hell with age!

[KYUNGILNAM]

@jetscreamer100 age does not matter.

[FIGHTFANNERD3]

i dont know any guy past there 30's that likes 2ne1 or even makes an effort to go see them live

are you gay by any chance ?

[ChrisJ235]

@FIGHTFANNERD3 Most of 2ne1's fans are over 30...just sayin.

[lainglaan]

@FIGHTFANNERD3 yeah most of 2ne1 fans are 30 plus most particularly in Korea.

[mamimayhem]

Aww. Sorry mate.

[hwangyi74]

lol... u should've just came. I'm 37 and I brought myself and 8 other guests(used 3 different email addy to enter... lol). They didn't check IDs at all. It was such a kick ass show.

[chico3jones]

@hwangyi74 Yep, anyone that got there before 1:30 and waited in line got a wristband and got in. So fun.

[2ne1usa]

@chico3jones Not true. I was there at 7:30am. They pulled me out. In the end they said 42 was too old for me to get in.

[hwangyi74]

@2ne1usa - You're guilty for getting there WAY too early. If you arrived there at 12:00noon for example, there was just WAY too many people in line that staffs didn't bother checking the guest list... and think about it, checking ID's of 2200 people in line is next to impossible. If I was a staff out there in cold, I would've done the same thing and just gave out everyone the wrist band without checking IDs.

[2ne1usa]

@hwangyi74 They actually had my pictures from this site and pulled me out based on my pictures. I asked for other reasons why I was pulled out and they said I tried to enter the building two times over the previous days. The security guy would not look at me in the eyes......um i just arrived 15 mins before they pullled me out and asked me to leave. I called the top security guy and he said he asked the show's producer for me and the producer said 42 is too old for the show. All lies.

[hwangyi74]

@2ne1usa ... well... that answers the question then. If you would've kept low profile, I have no doubt you would've got in.^^

[2ne1usa]

@hwangyi74 It was a 650 Mile round trip. I wanted clarification before I went. I had an email from Gotham Casting saying its ok for me to get in. I had a tweet from mtviggy saying no age restrictions. The producer stepped in and said hes too old. Its hard to figure out whats true and what are the lies now. I kust hope MTV Korea is better than MTV USA.

[hwangyi74]

@2ne1usa In Korea, it doesn't matter which concert or TV show you go to, there's ABSOLUTELY NO AGE RESTRICTION.  You can be 100 years old and still get in.

[2ne1usa]

@chico3jones MTVIggy tweet said there were no age restrictions. I actually had someone give me their invite so I was not considered a guest.

[2ne1usa]

@chico3jones Did you get the inital invite or where you a guest. May I ask how old you are?

[chico3jones]

@2ne1usa I got the initial invite. First email from Gotham Casting on Dec 5, but I didn't get confirmation until Sunday, Dec 11. I'm 41. They sent out an email reminding everyone that it was 18+, but no one asked my age.

[2ne1usa]

@chico3jones Interesting. I like your fan cam. Did you tell them you were 41 on the entry form? I wanted to make sure I could get in before I made the 350 mile round trip? If they said Yes to you being 41 then that means that they did let someone older win.....interesting..

[2ne1usa]

@hwangyi74 Interesting.  Did you emails say you were 37 or did you lie?

[hwangyi74]

@2ne1usa: If you read the email carefully, it doesn't say YOU(the person who emailed to enter) have to be 35 or younger, but it says your GUESTS have to be 35 or younger. When I emailed to enter at first, I did put in my real DOB, assuming that age wasn't a problem at all, and it didn't.

[td02fe]

MTV SUCK!!!! Once they put there hands on anything they try to manipulate it and trash it. I was waiting in line from 1:30 to 5:45 and told we would be getting in just to have to police tell us to leave. MTV used the 2ne1 fans outside as background props then sents us away when they were done.

[2ne1usa]

@td02fe I agree.

[kkigirl]

What??? Even in Korea where age can be a big deal there is no such thing as an age limit for a concert. I've never heard of such a thing. People of all ages enjoy pop concerts here (in Korea) all the time, sometimes you'll see 3 generations all together! Why does MTV even have such a policy??? So sorry for you, since you're such a hardcore fan.

[2ne1usa]

@kkigirl Yeah. I was outside and saw them through the window at one point.

[KajiMizuKaze35]

OMG! that's so sad!

[2ne1usa]

@KajiMizuKaze35 um... yeah

[moto815]

sad i want to go also i love 2ne1..

[2ne1usa]

@moto815 yes sad

[changsoonyoung]

my god.....@.@

[2ne1usa]

@changsoonyoung Yeah.....

[losahdanny]

how did they even check your age?

[2ne1usa]

@losahdanny yes. they looked at my passport and then kicked me out of line

[moochvaj]

Thank god I thought I was the only 30 year old male blackjack out there

[2ne1usa]

@moochvaj Did you get in?

[moochvaj]

@2ne1usa I wish. I live in Minnesota so sadly no. But I'm saving up to go see them when they do another concert in America

[LauraPFan]

Wow.... it's bad enough to have an upper age limit, but I don't recall seeing it in the rules they had on the website. So now I'm wondering if that's the reason I didn't get picked.

I love 2NE1, but they're really getting mixed up with the wrong people.. first Will.i.am and now MTV, somebody clue these girls in before they're music is ruined.

[2ne1usa]

@LauraPFan How old are you?

[akimz08]

its ok bro . . . there's more to come

[2ne1usa]

@akimz08 Yeah. Thats was my mind set

[alexisdgls]

Im so sorry man, that sucks so hard

[2ne1usa]

@alexisdgls Yes. I did see them from the out side for a couple minutes

[rainielove03]

aww;( what kind of policy was that! US is supposed to have freedom! Cheeaah! How could they be ageist.! I feel so bad for you, maybe next time you 'll c them live. :))

[2ne1usa]

@rainielove03 Yeah. MTV blew it.

[yyang0124]

omg that sucks u didn't get to go =( 

[JoshHoVEVO]

what a joke

[MommYDreW]

PLEASE LET'S EMAIL MTV IGGY SO  2NE1USA CAN COME TO THE CONCERT!!!!

[Amayakiryu]

2ne1 is for anyone for all ages!

[nwydictd]

This is the stupidest policy I've ever heard. We (I am 44 years old) love 2ne1 as much as those who are under 35. I am so upset that they have a priority group.

[302yt]

wow.... suddenly i feel so old at 33.....

[magaaliii]

wtf mtv <_<

I think you should still go and try. Good luck! This is just unacceptable

[MISSlaButterfly]

hate mtv for what they did to you!!

[Akingskye]

Wtf is wrong with MTV

[oxygene1]

This makes me sad. you should be able to go! music should have no age limit!

[nanase21]

Just make sure to spread it through the international 2NE1 and YGE fanbases, YGFamily is very protective and helpful so I'm sure they'll help you convey a strong message for MTV.

Good luck! Supporting you!

[willjerkins32621]

I say, "Screw MTV!!". Music DOES NOT have an age limit!

[TheRemorse45]

i never knew MUSIC HAD AN AGED LIMIT, either way MTV a fan is a fan!! that should be your basis!! not 18 - 35... PROPS FOR YOU DUDE FOR STANDING UP!!!

[2ne1usa]

@TheRemorse45 Thanks

[MrThesq]

I am a blackjack at age 52!

Well, since that is the case, then MTV can get all their revenue from that age group. WARNING to all the young fans - you will one day be over 35 and not in the demographics of MTV. Shame on MTV for their age discrimination policy. You will not see my business anymore.

I am glad 2NE1 don't care how old I am. They welcomed me when I became a Blackjack at age 51.

[Lampheader]

YOU STOLE MY WEBSITE IDEA MAN

no but for real you're my boy man

[2ne1usa]

@Lampheader Haha. Love 2ne1!

[revimmm]

[2ne1usa]

@revimmm Cool. MTV has an age limit on guests!!!
