Late word from virtual world services firm Millions of Us is that the company is bringing rapper Jay-Z to the virtual world of Second Life tonight for a performance that will be taped to air later tonight on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live, which starts at midnight (eastern). Show up at Motorati Island by 6:30pm Pacific time, when the taping starts, and your avatar could wind up on national television. I have no idea whether spots are still available, but contact Rodica MillionsOfUs well in advance if you really want to rub pixelated elbows with the bad boy of Bed-Stuy. And tune in to Jimmy Kimmel tonight. I’ve seen virtual worlds hit TV airwaves in the recent past, and it’s definitely something to behold. Makes you think this might not be just a passing fancy after all.
