Vanessa Minnillo to Exit Stage Left on TRL

MTV Total Request Live VJ and girlfriend of Nick Lachey has decided to hang up her mike and leave after four years. “I chose not to re-sign,” she said at the Breast Cancer Research Foundation’s annual gala at the Waldorf-Astoria last night. “I don’t want to be 48 going, ‘Hey kids, now it’s Sean Preston Spears’ video!’”

She's set to appear in a cameo in the upcoming "Fantastic Four" movie, and she and Nick just shacked up in his Manhattan home, but the future beyond that is an open slate. “I have had my run and I’m ready for the next chapter. What it is? I have no idea,” she says. “I don’t know if it’s going to be with a television show, with movies, with hosting, or maybe just even a family.” Hmmmm.
