Buzzkill was a show created for the MTV network. The show was essentially a series of elaborate pranks (backed, of course, by a major television network's budget) played not only on the layman but often on celebrities and major public figures. The show backfired, however, when one of the principal pranksters disguised himself as famous designer Isaac Mizrahi. The likeness was so uncanny that he fooled superstar Whitney Houston at an awards show; when Houston discovered the error, she felt made a fool of and vowed never to appear on MTV again. Consequently the show was canceled.
