Looking Back: "Tonight Live" SL TV Show Ends

 

It was 11 years ago tomorrow that a weekly televised talk show in Second Life came to an end. Paisley Bebee, the host of "Tonight Live" announced on her blog on July 2, 2011 that the show would not be continuing. 

"Tonight Live" was a weekly talk show that aired every Sunday (aside season breaks) in which Paisley would interview a few people, often one a musician who would play for the audience. Two notable shows were with members of Team Emerald during the Emeraldgate scandal (which was the only time the interviewees weren't in front of the audience), and the show concerning the Redzone controversy in early 2011. 

Paisley was known as Leone Smith in real life, and was already known as a radio personality and Jazz singer in Australia. She listed wanting to spend more time with her family in real life, and devoting more time to her current project at the time, Digital Breezes, as her reasons for not continuing the talk show. As of the writing of this article, it is unknown what she is doing currently.
