What happened to MTV VJ Simon Rex ....meet Dirty Nasty

Simon Rex began his career as a small-time porn star — with a name like that, can you blame him? — and was vaulted into MTV fame when he was hired as a VJ back in 1995. He left the network two years later, and has gone on to a semi-successful acting career, with roles in shows like Everwood and Felicity, as well as well-attended if terrible parody films like Scary Movies 3 and 4. Weirdest of all though, is Rex’s burgeoning rap career under the handle “Dirt Nasty,” that made him a YouTube sensation as well as a guest on Paris Hilton’s My New BFF.

He also made a cameo appearance in Ke$ha’s “Tik Tok” video (he’s the guy with the mullet and unfortunate mustache)
