I remember MTV and Sega making a deal to have Space Channel 5’s main character show up on their channel. At the time, it made sense because video games were blowing up and MTV wanted a connection. Ulala was going to report the music news, and they even made a pilot episode, but it did get any further. However, I do believe they used Ulala in some promotional segments for MTV VGAs.
I truly believe this show would have worked and been successful today. Given all the anime girls and cat boys, I believe this would have been a huge hit. They were doing VR and cartoon characters as TV hosts already, and this show would have been just Ulala reading the news with some pre-set dance moves and walks.
Did Apollo Smile do the voice for the pilot? It sort of sounds like her. I am aware that Apollo didn't reprise her role for the new game.
