  18. <p>     What happens to MTV veejays when they grow up? What happens
  19. when they no longer experience the ineffable rush that comes
  20. with introducing bad Aerosmith videos? Unfortunately, many veejays
  21. who vow to move on merely vanish into a vast, empty infomercialless
  22. ether. Thankfully, Karen Duffy, or DUFF, won't be joining them.
  23. mtv's prime-time host-babe, 31 ("senior citizen" in rock-video
  24. years), just clinched a four-picture deal with Disney that will
  25. include a starring role in an adaptation of The Taming of the
  26. Shrew. Says the former model: "I want to play strong-willed
  27. wisenheimers."
