I can't believe that we just saw the last episode of "TRL." You might think that me being British, I wouldn't know "TRL," but I do. It's an international show that we've all been watching.

It was amazing to see so many people — from 50 Cent to Diddy to Beyoncé to Justin Timberlake to Ludacris — come out to pay their respects to a show that obviously means more to them than just a one-hour block on television.

Everyone's telling me that the studio was the place to be, but the whole night, we were backstage, and every single artist came through to say hello. I was talking to Diddy about his upcoming, very eclectic album, and who interrupts our interview? 50 Cent. Having two of the biggest music-business tycoons standing on either side of me, I couldn't help but wonder who had more money in his pocket.

Backstage, the artists weren't just staying in their dressing rooms or hanging out in VIP areas. Everybody was having fun and acting like regular people. It was a beautiful thing to see them interact with each other.

It was great being a part of the "TRL" finale. Carson Daly was somebody who really embraced me when I came to MTV in 2000. I was somewhat of an outsider. I came from a different place, and I looked different, with the hair wrap and everything. At the time, Carson gave me some really great advice. He told me to go out there, just have fun and be who I am, and the rest would resonate.

It was great seeing all the original faces, from Carson to Hilarie, Quddus, Lyndsey, La La and Vanessa. Everyone's still really successful and doing their own thing. It was also good to see Snoop, Nelly, Luda, Hilary Duff and all these wonderful folks.

The show was such a tribute to great music and pop culture, and then it became a cultural icon in itself. I'm happy to be a part of "TRL," and being on the finale was a proud moment for me. I had a wonderful time.
