Idiot Parents Angry At Britney

Photobucket
Parents with children as young as 5 are apparently horrified by the lyrics on one of the songs on the new Britney Spears album 'Circus'.

‘If You Seek Amy’
may be the actual title of one of the songs but when Britney sings it, it sounds exactly like ‘F U C K me”. In context of the lyrics, ‘If You Seek Amy’ doesn’t even make sense as a lyric. ‘F U C K me’ does. It is either “All of the boys and all of the girls are begging to if you seek Amy” or “all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to F U C K me”.

“I was astonished and totally taken aback when I heard my 5 and 7 year old kids walking around the house singing F U C K’,” whined one of the parents to Undercover News. “When I asked them what it was, they told me it was Britney Spears. I was horrified”.

Le gasp! Shock! Horror! Britney Spears isn't for kids? Holy shit. REALLY?

The parents continue to make their bitchy whining look even more stupid by making comments like: "I thought it would be good, wholesome entertainment for them (the kids) over the holidays. I got them the ‘Circus’ album because little kids are Britney fans but there was no warning on the album and none of the songs listed had F U C K in the title.”


While the ambiguity of the track may have decieved the parents and for that, the label may be in the wrong, I just have one thing to say: where the fuck are these parents living? What planet are they on? Britney is the last person on planet earth who is wholesome - have they not cracked open a magazine over the last three years? The woman has gone through shit. She will sing about that shit. If you want to keep your kids cottonballed from that then stay away from anything Britney Spears. God damn.

Britney's On Rolling Stone - Again!

Photobucket
Britney Spears has yet another Rolling Stone cover under her belt and yet again, we are all falling head over heels in love with her again and her new image.

I know her breakdowns are messy and scary but the end result is so wonderful, she comes out of her ugly hard-shell drunken-boozy-orgy-druggy coccoon as a fairy-tale princess.

Sit back and enjoy the rides peeps, it's another Britney re-invention!

Britney 'Circus' Promos

Photobucket
Britney Spears' heavily anticipated album 'Circus' hits stores in December although I'm guessing the recent leaks might affect album sales and may cause Jive records to push the release date forward.

Anyways, enjoy the hot-a-licious promos for the CD cover of 'Circus'.

Madge & Brit Reunit!

Photobucket
Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake joined Madonna on stage at the Los Angeles' Dodger Stadium on Thursday night (6th November) - but at different times, so the duo were never on stage together at any time. Oh well, at least we got a Madonna and Britney reunion!

Spears joined Madonna on stage to sing the last verse of the track “Human Nature,” much to the delight of the packed house, which included some serious star power, including Jennifer Lopez, Ryan Seacrest, Heidi Klum, Drew Barrymore, Fergie and Donald Sutherland.

At the end of the song, Madonna proclaimed, “I’m not your bitch!” She then pointed to Britney, adding, “She’s not your bitch,” drawing raucous applause from the crowd. I have to say, I am really glad Madonna said she and Brit weren't anybodies bitches because the way the paparazzi and media ride these two ladies... you'd think they were on hire by pimps!

The collobaration, as expected, was a real crowd pleaser as one concert-goer told Access Hollywood: “The crowd went insane.”

Timberlake
was there to duet with Madonna afterwards on their hit single 4 Minutes but of course, he's less important...

Check out the videos below too. Britney looked amazingly smart, sophisticated and beautiful. She's really picked herself up, I'm so proud of her. Madonna looked wrinkly, veiny and like she'd OD'ed on steroids but no duo is perfect, I guess...

Adnan Ghalib Has Britney Sex Tape

Or so he claims.
Photobucket
Anyone remember this guy?

He was one of the photogs ogling Britney during her dark days a few months ago and then Brit Brit snapped him up as a boyfriend. I guess my first impressions about him using the queen of pop were right because he now claims to have a Britney sex tape.

Can I just take a moment here to say - UGH SLEAZEBAG - can I?

Adnan Ghalib, a british photog spoke with British tabloid Heat Magazine. He said:
“There is such a tape but I won’t discuss prices for hypothetical inquiries. Unless there is a locked-in deal, I will go no further."

That basically translates as 'Yeah, I'll totally sell out if the price is right.'
UGH, SUPER SLEAZE!

“I am not interested in selling out any other details about Britney.”
Except for one of the most intimate and vulnerable moments of Brit's life? Yeah, you've really got your priorities right.

British newspaper The Sun adds that the two-hour X-rated footage features Britney naked wearing just a pink wig and was allegedly shot in Mexico. (Adnan and Britney went to Mexico together in January.)

What do you guys make of this?

Personally, if such a sex tape exists, I wouldn't be surprised. Britney was pretty much crazy and gone in those days - I mean come on, she dated that piece of dirt. That's about as low as she could've sunk. I'm sure such a sex tape would sell big too. I doubt it will affect Britney's career - if anything, it will boost it. Many of us were expecting there to be some kind of tape stored away anyway.

You're A Womanizer, Baby!

It's finally here!

Britney Spears' first single off her hotly anticipated sixth studio album 'Circus' is out!

Click here to go to JJ to have a listen.

All I can say is it's nothing new, fresh or original but it is damn catchy and I'm pretty sure it'll secure a number one spot on the charts.

Go, Brit!

Brit Is Horse-Friendly

Photobucket
Britney Spears was spotted by her stalkers in LA on Saturday afternoon at a polo match.

Britney was seen mingling with the audience and even went out to greet the horse-riders at one point.

I had no idea Brit had an interest in watching something, which to me seems boring, as polo matches. I can't stand horses. If I'd been given a pony when I was 8, I would've shot it. Yeah, hiss and boo and call me 'evil' all you want... I just don't trust them.. with their clippity cloppity hooves and swishy swish tails... every body part makes a sound... it's UNNATURAL!

Womanizer Leaks! Have A Listen!

Photobucket
A preview of Britney Spears' first single “Womanizer” has leaked via Nashville, Tennesse’s 107.5 The River.

“Womanizer”, off Brit’s much-anticipated sixth studio album Circus will officially drop this Monday, Sept. 22. Check out some sample lyrics below.

Yikes, Brits albums always have leaks but I didn't anticipate one this early!

Anyways, check out the fan-made video using the new leaked song below. What do you think? Is it good? Is it Brit-worthy?


I have to say, I am LOVING the new-agey sound, it's got a good beat. I can't understand a word she's saying... but hey, that won't stop it from tearing up the charts!

Brit's Biggest Fans Are Back!

Now that Britney Spears' record label have announced that the pop princess is set to make a big and highly anticipated comeback by dropping her sixth studio album before Christmas this year - it seems the spotlight is back on Brit.

Of course, that spotlight can blind - especially when it's being beamed at Britney by hoards and hoards of paparazzi. These are the leeches who watched her gradual decline and witnessed her degradation only a few months ago. Now, it's been a while and Britney's managed to avoid the intense paparazzi-freak-outs but since the VMAs and what with all the 'OMG BRITNEY COMEBACK!' hype... the little creeps are back on the hunt!

Lynne Spears Talks Britney

Photobucket
Lynne Spears, mother of Britney and Jamie Lynne, went on the Today Show to promote her memoir 'Through The Storm' and talked in-depth about how she and her family coped with Britney's fame; going all the way back to the early 'Hit Me Baby One More Time' days.

Lynne explained, “It’s kind of like Britney was sent out into the world a little bit prematurely.” Lynne was a single mom and had another young child, Jamie Lynne Spears, to take care of as well, and couldn’t always be there for Brit. “Did I want to be there? Of course!” she said. “Was it feasible? It wasn’t.”

She thought of it like sending a child off to college. “You don’t really know what they’re doing in college ... just as Britney set out two years earlier to be a star,” she said.

Lynne also added that she was never a stage mom, “Britney pushed me,” she told the Today Show. Continuing on, she said, “She’s out there, she’s with the crowds and with her peer groups, and she’s doing things-she’s a celebrity, for heaven’s sake!”

When the cover of Rolling Stone came out with Britney just about naked with a Teletubby, Lynne felt the sharp pain of losing control. She would not have let it happen, but stated, “We didn’t really know what we were doing. We were so in awe. “I never even bought [Rolling Stone], but I just heard this is a really big deal. We didn’t have any choice over pictures ... We had no one who could tell us what we were supposed to be doing.”

Continuing about the cover, Lynne explained, “It was a two-day shoot. Thank god [manager] Larry Rudolph came in and said, ‘Stop, that’s enough.’”

Lynne described her child’s fast career as being exciting at first. “It seems like everything’s fabulous: Look at the trips she gets to go on! There was that honeymoon period where it looked like she could do no wrong. Then there’s that ugly side of fame ... and we weren’t ready for that.”

Breakdowns started occurring over periods of time. From her 55-hour marriage to childhood friend Jason Alexander, two children within two years, the head shaving incident and trips in and out of rehab -Lynne simply stated, “It was so crazy. We were praying very hard. It seemed like we had no control over what was happening.”

Reaching out to her troubled daughter was not easy, though. Anxious to get her help, Lynne told her friends, “If you see my behind going over that wall into the Summit [Britney’s house], it’s me because it’s my last drastic measure.”

Lynne remembers everything over the years and stated, “I have sat for hours, thinking and thinking about everything that’s happened. It’s been a whirlwind. When you mix extreme heightened celebrity hood and then when you have heartache. The mixture’s just not healthy.”

So, the question is; am I the only one who wants to desperately go out and buy her book but feels too guilty to do so? I mean, I feel so torn between my firm stance on staying away from celebrity's private lives and my burning, burning desire to probe more into the mystery that is Britney Spears. Eh, I'll read the cliff notes. Technically... I'm not reading the actual thing. Heh. Technically.

Britney Doesn't Take Candy From Strangers

Photobucket

Sorry everyone but it turns out that the so-called 'leak' from Brit's new album 'Circus' isn't a leak. It's actually a fake created by some clever rappers who schemed to fool us all - damn them, they know us too well, they say 'BRITNEY LEAK' and we jump!

Bunnywithfangs.com reports:
Shawn adds clarification - When Meghan says ’sound board’ and ‘put this thing together’ that is girl-speak for - a bunch of up-and-coming rappers with a home studio and a friend who sounds quite a bit like Britney Spears recycled an old beat and sent it to gullible radio stations eager for pageviews. Could it be a demo? Sure, but it’s not likely. The original source of this leak was a YouTube video uploaded on an account that was created in the last 24 hours. It’s a publicity stunt of some kind and several excited folks, us included, fell for it. I can guarantee one thing, if a Britney song does leak, you’re going to find it here. Will we trip over a few fakes on the way? Maybe.

Britney's Circus Album Release Date

Photobucket
Nothing gets me more excited then a new album by Madonna, Britney or any of the other legendary greats. So, you can pretty much guess I was all 'WOO! WOO! PARTY IN THE HOUSE!'-ing it up (yes, I'm lame and about a decade behind) when I heard that Britney Spears will be releasing her sixth studio album on 2nd December 2008.

That's her birthday!

Her record label, Jive/Zomba, also announced that the album will be called 'Circus' and that the first single will be called 'Womanizer'.

To me, it sounds like our girl Brit is finally back with a new image, a healthier body and a healthier lifestyle to rule the charts again!

What do you think? Are you excited?

Brit's New Album Has December Release

Britney's next album, which OK! can exclusively reveal will be released by late December, has to be a monster hit to sustain her comeback, and all signs indicate that it will deliver.

“It’s my best work ever,” Britney proudly told OK!.


Even more important in Britney’s battle is her effort to win joint custody of her sons, Preston and Jayden, from her ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Photobucket Image Hosting
“Her goal is to regain joint custody of her sons as soon as her dad Jamie’s status as her conservator ends,” a Spears insider tells OK!.

But before then, Britney has some other planning to do — party planning that is! As the proud mom told OK! during our exclusive interview, she is organizing a joint affair for her sons to celebrate Jayden’s second birthday on Sept. 12 and Preston’s third birthday on Sept. 14, with the help of her father.


“I want to have a traditional party,” she told OK!. “I have some friends with kids who I am going to invite."

Her mom, Lynne Spears, has also been making headlines with her new book titled Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World. Although gossip blogs buzzed over supposed scandalous details in the memoir, the book is more about Lynne's experience as a mother through Britney's tough times, as the Associated Press reported.

“Regardless of what people might think, Britney isn’t upset about the book,” an insider tells OK!. “After a tough last year, Brit and Lynne have a wonderful relationship again.”

Kevin Is The One

Photobucket Image Hosting
Yes, children... that’s right. Kevin Jonas is the One.

Photobucket Image HostingPhotobucket Image Hosting
Unfortunately, I’m not talking about him being ‘The One’ in the whole ‘OMG THIS IS THE FREAKING MATRIX AD NEO YOU’RE THE ONE... You’re The ONE!’ or even, sadly, in the sense of ‘Buffy, you are the Chosen One; the slayer’. No, it’s nowhere near remotely as cool as that. It’s actually... really... just kinda sad.
Actually, when I talk about the oldest Jonas Brother being ‘The One’; I don’t even mean it in the romantic sense which is weird for me because I’m just... well, horny as fuck! I’ll even try to woo the mailman on a bad day... or would that be a good day? Hmm. Questions, questions... But back to the point. No, when I say ‘The One’ – I mean it in the ... dun dun DUUUN... Chelsea Lately sense.

Oh yeah, heck yeah, boo yah.

I’m sure the penny is dropping with an almighty ‘clink!’ for a lot of you reading this right now.

For those of you who’re still scratching your heads, going ‘huh?’ with a deer-in-the-headlights expression on your faces; all I can say is: where have you been? Do you live under a rock? If you do - then, awesome! I live under a rock too! Yeah, it’s a funny story but basically it involves my dad and some taxes that weren’t paid and now the whole families under a rock ‘cos all the bins were taken...

Lemme break it down for you simpletons (don’t be insulted, I’m the stupidest person I know so I love it when I know something others don’t... let me have my moment!)

Chelsea Lately has a show where she has a habit of tearing down stupid celebrities who do stupid stuff.
Photobucket Image Hosting
We all know there’s a lot of people in Hollywood and we all know a lot of crazy shit happens in Hollywood... so it makes sense that Chelsea always has some moron to discuss. To be honest, I was kind of surprised when she bought up the Jonas Brothers. I was like ‘huh? These are the most perfect kids in Hollyhooooood right now. What the heck did they do that she’s heckling them on her damn show?’ Guess what they did? Oh, well, actually, it’s a case of what they didn’t do. Yeah. Seriously. Ugh. The Jonas Brothers are such stupid retards, I mean, oh my GOD, they won’t have sex! They have these stupid rings that are like a commitment to like purity or whatever. Oh, oh, OH and get *this*... they read the Bible. They DESERVE to be on that Chelsea show... like TOTALLY. They’re such scum that they deserve to be on a show with other scummy people. They’re as bad as R Kelly who likes to go wee-wee on 14 year old girls, they’re as crazy as Brit-Brit when she went bold-bold and they’re as talentless as Paris Hilton when she was attempting to prove she was a somebody on The Simple Life.

Uh... wrong. So wrong.

The Chelsea Lately Show hit out at the Brothers not once, not twice... but DAMN, *three* times. That’s impressive. If this was a game of bowling, Chelsea Lately would have herself a strike. It’s just too bad this isn’t a game. I’m sure Chelsea Lately discovered this after her faux interview with the boys got an impressive list of complaints and the network was forced to stamp her little ass down. So, yes, all you Jonas Brothers fans... all you crazy loonies out there... you won. You won that battle.

Unfortunately, the damage was done.

In the faux interview, Chelsea made an explosive remark when she referred to Kevin Jonas as ‘the other one’ and continuously reprimanded him, belittled him and treated him like a.. well, like an outsider; an extra; it was a real ‘two’s company but three’s a crowd’ kind of a situation.

Little did Chelsea know what a minefield she had stepped out in when she decided to ‘diss’ the trio of brothers on her show but I’m willing to bet she didn’t even know of the very fragile ticking bomb she was stepping on when she dismissively referred to the older brother as ‘the other one’. Actually, maybe she did know that she was stepping on a raw nerve... but then that would make Chelsea Lately an evil genius... and I can see the evil part in her but genius? Really? Nah, she went into that joke totally blind of the repercussions.

If you talk to Jonas Brothers fans, they will mainly do this: ’OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGJonas.Brothers.Rock.They.Are.Like.My.LifeOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG’ and sometimes they will even pause... and breathe! But mainly, these creatures – normally of the female variety – don’t seem to need to breath, strangely enough. They’ve honed their skills so that they can speak up to 200 words a minute without pausing for air. Why waste precious time with the Jonas Brothers on breathing, after all? Well, that’s what they tell me anyway. Another thing the Jonas Brothers fans like to do is petition. Don’t mock the power of the people; kiddies. These fans have gotten their idols onto OPRAH. Oh, yeah. Fuck. That’s what I’m talking about. How beautiful is that? These fans just give and give and give.
Oh, and if you diss a Jonas Brother?
They will still give and give and give you more and more and more punches and kicks to your gut then you can possibly imagine.

Yet, there is ONE little thing that isn’t quite wonderful in the cult of the Jonas Brothers. Yes, there is *one* little vulnerability you can exploit if you’re evil like me and you don’t have anything better to do (also like me!) It goes a little something like this... (Read this, read it as it unfolds ‘cos it is truly beautiful, it really is)

Me: Hiiiii JB fans!
NickLover101: oo hey
IloveJoe: hii
Nickrocks; hi
DA_Mrs.Jonas: HEY!!!!
Kevinrules: hey
Me: How are y’all today?
Kevinrules: good
DA_Mrs.Jonas: really gud, i spent two hours worshippin my nick shrine today
Nickrocks: Ah cool! Good job DA_Mrs.Jonas
ILoveJoe: ugh im still in the middle of making mine for Joe. I just cant choose what pic to use.. their rolling stone cover or their teen vogue one?
NickLover101: TEEN VOGUE!!
Nickrocks: no way rolling stone, man rolling stone. Nick looks soo hot.
Me: Yeah yeah yeah. Interesting, the shrines and all... I.. I don’t know. You pick.
Kevinrules: rolling stone.
Me: So yeah, uh shrines and all that crap, yeah that’s interesting but uh, I was wondering, whose your favourite Jonas Brother?
ILoveJoe: oh we cant pick! Theyre all amazing
Me: Really? Come ooon. Pick one.
NickLover101: if i had to then i guess nick.
ILoveJoe: or joe.
NickLover101: yeah nick or joe are cute.
DA_Mrs.Jonas: oh yeah definitely. I mean nick is soo hot and Joe is so funny. Either one.
Nickrocks: i’d say nick but joe comes in second for sure. Or closely to number 1
Kevinrules: why not Kevin?
NickLover101: oh he’s good too.
Nickrocks: yh yh hes cool
DA_Mrs.Jonas: omg i love Kevin. I said Kevin!!
Me: Pssh. You said Nick or Joe, missy. Don’t you lie. I’ll scroll up in this conversation and copy and paste if I have to!
Kevinrules: OH! MY! GOD!
Kevinrules: You fuckin bitches i knew it.
Me: Woah missy. I got soap here and I will use it.
NickLover101: knew what?
NickLover101: it’s really not what ur thinking.
Kevinrules: omg. Kevin is so wonderful and just as important as his brothers.how dare you do this? How dare you say he’s not your favourite and try to sideline him like this? WHERE IS YOUR HUMANITY?!
DA_Mrs.Jonas: Kevinrules, please, it’s not like that.
Me: Well, I don’t mean to butt in but none of you did say Kevin. You were pretty much jumping the Joe and Nick train. I’d say I agree with Kevinrules here.
Kevinrules: Kevin does so much. How do u think he wud feel if he read this? Omg. I am so ashamed and embarrassed for you guys.
Me: Hang your heads in shame, guys. Kevin is brilliant. The other two are his brothers. They deserve equality. This is just mean.
Nickrocks: hey you know, youre not exactly helping.
Me: Hey, hey, HEY! Don’t you disrespect me. You’re the ones who are in the wrong here.
Kevinrules
: ugh don’t try and change the subject Nickrocks and blame her, you guys are so wrong
Me: Yeah *sneers* Don’t mess with this!
NickLover101: yeah but she is stirring things up.
DA_Mrs.Jonas: I bet she doesn’t even like Kevin she never said anything herself
Kevinrules: sure she does. Right?
Me: Uh, yeah, about that, I gotta go. So you guys talk this out, I’ll see you soon! Bye. TTYL. Love youuu. Kisses and hugs and all that jazz, pretty people.

Yes, now I have shown you all my secret ways... I know you will use this knowledge for evil and go out into the world and try to disunite the Jonas Brothers fans of the world. I say to you, lowly specimens... Good luck! :D

Only kidding.

But you guys get the jist of it, don’t you? Fans of the Jonas Brothers, especially those who have taken a shine to Kevin Jonas; do feel defensive when it comes to him. You can imagine how much Chelsea Lately’s words stung Kevin fans not to mention Kevin himself. Of course, the Jonas Brothers are the embodiment of cool. These guys do not sweat it. They don’t let Chelsea Lately or more recently; Russell Brand affect them. The fans fight those battles for the brothers. Also, well, alright, I suppose the brothers do sweat – but they only do it on stage and I believe they do it of their own free will; they have a little switch on their backs that they flip on before a show that makes them sweat ‘cos they know the ladies like it. (Seriously, go to YouTube and search ‘I went to the Burning Up Concert and Joe sweated on me! BEST.NIGHT.OF.MY.LIFE!’ Heh...)

Personally, all this talk of Kevin being under-appreciated to a great extent makes sense to me. He doesn’t sing on a lot of the songs. That’s about the only reason I think he seems like ‘the other one’. Other than that, let’s face it, he is just as cute as Joe and Nick.
Photobucket Image Hosting
He is. He is absolutely beautiful. Face it, if he wasn’t around, every interview would consist of Joe Jonas sitting there clubbing himself on the head to get laughs and Nick sitting awkwardly at the back and silently watching. Kevin is the glue. He is the cohesive element of the group. He is amazing. I love and adore him. Joe will always be MY favourite. What can I say? I love to laugh and the boy brings the laughs, although I have heard he steals Nick’s jokes.... WHO CARES? I love Joe. Oh, and we set a date for the wedding, you guys. You’re all invited. It’s in New York on November 31st. Please bring gifts, if you bring silverware or a kitchen appliance of any kind; I’ll shove it where the sun doesn’t shine, okie dokie? Joe’s still choosing his tux but yes, November 31st for sure. I mean, I really think he and I can make this work. Sure, there is the issue of what I’m going to do with Taylor Swift because I have her bound and gagged in the trunk of my car and also, the matter of Joe having to be secretly fed those ten tiny blue pills a day so his memory doesn’t come back... but every relationship has its issues, right?

HAHA.

I love you guys and the brilliant feedback you give to my random ramblings. Please, gimme some more! Leave a comment and let me know what you think of Kevin Jonas. I have a new nick name for him, it isn’t ‘The Other One’... it’s the ‘Sticky One’... cos you know, how he like sticks the group together ‘cos he’s the glue and... yeah, lame... I know...

Peace and love.

Brit's Back With A Shoot

The Media, Private Pix & Miley

Photobucket

I have a simple question for everyone judging 15 year old Miley Cyrus right now:
"What is a slut?"

You might laugh and think 'Woaaah, this person is really losing it. Duh. Miley is the slut.'

Wrong answer.

Look at Miley Cyrus's 'scandalous' images that you've seen, like me, probably on The Gossip Girls and tell me that you don't have pictures like that in your photobucket or file of images on your laptop, sidekick or whatever. Images either of you, or a friend or friends or maybe even friend's of friends. Basically, if you're under the age of 25 and you have peers, you'll see some girl or other with pictures like that. It's guaranteed! It's a fact!

Heck, you can be the most religious person and completely against excessive flesh exposure but you know what, it still happens despite the fact that we can argue over the morality of it.

Now would you call these people that you know sluts? I sure as hell wouldn't because guess what? I know these girls, I see them every day at school and I talk to them and I see how they function as perfectly normal members of society and it kills me to admit this but some of them are smarter then me... Boo! The difference between me and them is that they have the body to flaunt, me? Not so much!

The fact is: Miley Cyrus isn't a slut. The media is a whore and a pimp generating sluts and Miley's just another poor passerby that's been dragged into it.

Photobucket

The websites who are reporting these images and are posting on them and then adding distasteful and really dim-witted remarks like 'Oh, isn't Billy Ray proud?' are fucking hypocrites. I'm sorry but where I come from: if you think something is wrong (for example: behaving inappropriately in pictures) then you don't normally spread the immorality of that around for other people to see. If someone was murdered by some crazy axe-wielding person - do we really need to see the pictures of the mutilated victim? No thank you! This is just a classic example of the media getting its sick kicks from exploiting icons in the spotlight.


Do me a favour, people. Stop talking about it. If you hate Miley Cyrus, good for you, here's a round of applause and a pineapple. The more shit you talk about her, the more famous you make her.

Photobucket

When I first read about Vanessa Hudgen's nude pictures ordeal, I didn't even batter a single eyelid because my first thought was "Well, she's hot as hell, she's in a business where she'll be exploited and have no privacy anyway... if she didn't take nude pictures of herself, it wouldn't be long before some disgusting TMZ pap took pictures of her topless on a beach or something."

Miley took pictures considered raunchy even though she has a 'perfect tween-idol' image to keep up. Well guess what? She's a human being just like me and you with red blood just like me and you. She's a young girl just like I was when I was 15 years old and she's finding her way. Let's face it, ladies, our world is full of pressures to look a certain way. When you hit puberty, you pretty much realise (wrongly) that 'If I'm not sexy, I'm nothing'. That pretty much summed up these last few years of high school for me. Gradually everyone finds their path and their way.

One thing I despise is people comparing Miley to Vanessa Hudgens or Britney Spears. For one thing: What the hell is wrong with Vanessa Hudgens? What's so bad about being Britney Spears? They're both rich, successful women and the only downside is that the media exposes their most intimate moments; which is exactly why Britney flipped and really gave them a reality show with shock moments every time she stepped out of the house and it had disastrous consequences for her life and health. Also, the situation with Vanessa Hudgens only made her stronger. I don't think Vanessa should have even had to apologise and I hope Miley doesn't even dignify these photos with a response because it's not needed.


When people spend this much time hating celebrities and talking shit about them and exposing their flaws... you KNOW they have nothing going on in their lives to keep them entertained. But guess what? The personal lives of celebrities aren't here for your entertainment.

Miley didn't send these pictures to you: they were leaked. Vanessa didn't send these pictures to you: a ghost from her past caught up with her when she was famous and most vulnerable.

I don't care and neither should anyone else. When I flip on the news, I expect to hear about murderers being sent down for their heinous crimes and when the hell our troops are going to stop torturing themselves and the poor Iraqis and come home. I don't expect to see live 24-hour-around-the-clock surveillance of Britney Spear's house, thanks! Assholes.


EDIT: I was extremely angry writing this blog! I just read it over and realised I was really flipping out. Sorry for the excessive swearing, guys. Sometimes we all have a frustrating day - I'm no exception. MILEY FTW!

Vanessa Hudgens Has The Best Fans In The World

Vanessa Hudgens Has The Best Fans In The World




You know what’s interesting?
Britney Spears Crazy Antics

Britney Spears. Gosh, her little antics kept the bloggers and TV networks fuelled full of gossip for a couple of weeks there, didn’t they?


You know what else is interesting?

The stars of hit TV shows like Gossip Girl and Heroes. Who saw Hayden P and Milo Ventimiglia’s little relationship coming? Man, there’s a significant age difference between them so it means we can criticise them! YAY! And then there’s the gossiplicious hottie Chace Crawford and his break-up with Carrie Underwood. They broke up through text messages and wow, that just had everyone recalling ‘Federline-Spears’ break-up all over again!


And do you know what’s interesting right now?

Vanessa Hudgens. Her little nude pictures stunt was Perez Hilton’s dream come true.


Yes, these stars are very interesting. They live these little lives that we get to read and for a couple of minutes or hours or even days, we escape from our own lives. We have chores to do, some have errands to run, others have mortgages to pay and families to feed.


But doesn’t it make you feel like you’re in an alternate universe when you’re reading about these people? No wonder you’re getting a buzz out of the paparazzi videos, the candid photos and the stories hot off the rumour mill. It’s good to know that these untouchable, super-glamorous people crash and burn too.


And boy, do the media know it.


Greg Hudgens Paparazzi Going Crazy

They know we love seeing Vanessa Hudgens’ sweaty two hundred pound or so father yell abuse at a TMZ cameraman and they know we love watching Zac and Vanessa walking out of a restaurant in California after New Years. They know we love watching beautiful people lead beautiful lives that sometimes mess up. It’s the perfect reality soap opera.


What they also know is that we are contributing to their magazine sales, the hits their webpages get and the ratings their TV shows have.


What they also probably know is that sometimes watching the pretty people makes us feel ugly and depressed because they don’t feel ‘interesting’ but of course: THEY don’t care about that. I’ll be honest, I look in the mirror and I see a monster and hey, that’s not just me being ‘modest’ – little kids run away from me in the street and old grannies scream in horror at me in the supermarket. I can deal with it.

Radio Disney is pretty stupid

This Friday (the 11th April), Vanessa Hudgens debuted her first single from her second album ‘Identified’ on Radio Disney. The single is called ‘Sneakernight’ and you can check it out here if you haven’t already (although I seriously doubt anyone ‘in the zone’ hasn’t heard it yet!).


How would I describe this? It’s jazzy and Vanessa definitely explores a range of vocals we never got to hear in her first album. Sneakernight proved one thing to me for sure. The girl’s got a voice and the girl’s got a little soul in her. However, she doesn’t carry the song well. The chorus wakes you up again and really gets your head bouncing but the verses were a strange place for me. And my mother told me strange places are bad, especially when a 45 year old retired gym teacher tries to take you to one....


So what does Vanessa’s ‘Sneakernight’ have to do with her having the best fans in the world and my point about the media often depressing us with these beautified images of these idols?


Well, here’s my point. Sometimes you’re having a bad day (or maybe this is just me...) and you flip open a magazine and see these pretty, beautiful people with their lives talking about another holiday home they’ve bought for a ridiculous amount of money in some exotic location and you think: ‘YOU DIRTY LITTLE MOTHERFUCKER!’ Or, you know, if you’re a nicer person then me, you think: ‘When am I going to get a break? These people are people, they’re just like me and they can do this. Am I doomed to failure?’ Like I said, sometimes you go to a dark, depressing place and the last thing you need is skinny famous people with more money than they can handle shoved in your face. Sometimes you think ‘Hey, Rihanna... if I hadn’t bought your album, if my friends hadn’t bought it, if I’d taught my grandma how to illegally download it instead... you wouldn’t be in your fancy little car. So shut up, Rihanna. Just shut up. Stop smiling. Stop Rihanna, for the love of God, Rihanna STOP!’ (I have nothing against Rihanna, she’s lovely...). It only makes sense that you would question ‘Where’s my recognition for buying your damn DVD/CD?’ because the sad truth is, a lot of stars these days forget to thank the FANS. I think fans should at least be second on your ‘list of people to thank in my acceptance speech for my Emmy’, you know?


So.


Vanessa Hudgens has loyal fans

Vanessa Hudgens. Sneakernight. Lots of ‘OMG! I can’t wait’ and a ton of anticipation that has been leading up to the premiere of the single for almost months. Fans have seen the pictures of her going into a recording studio in the morning and leaving when it’s dark. Reports have been coming through that she was working impressively hard on it and the producers working with her were impressed. Cue the fan hysteria. Wait, let me amend that. Cue the loyal fan hysteria. Fans who saw her ‘naughty area’ and still stuck by her. Fans who scrounged for even the tiniest piece of information about her new album for months. Wild assumptions stating she could be working with the likes of Timbaland and that her album was going to be one of the best of 2008 started to circulate.


Then the single was released and the response across fan-boards was pretty much varied. There were sprinkles of ‘she sounds so different! Wow. I love it’ and others of ‘NOOOO! I stayed up until 2am in the morning on iTunes for this?!’ But the general consensus seemed to be: ‘It was an OK song but definitely not the best and I feel Vanessa has a lot of potential left’.


See that?


That’s what the unanimous agreement seems to be.


Now don’t you think Vanessa Hudgens fans absolutely rock?

I sure as hell do!

I went to bed late Friday night and didn’t get to listen to the song.

I wake up on Saturday morning and hit ‘SNEAKERNIGHT’ into YouTube. There were well over a hundred videos there, I’m sure. This is how dedicated and loving these guys and girls are. Even the ones who disliked her song still can’t wait for her album photoshoots or her other songs from the album.


Pussycat Dolls fans hate them

Now tell me this. If this was anyone else... if this was, say.... Soulja Boy... or even the Pussycat Dolls and they came out with a song that came from an album that had been highly anticipated for the best part of almost a year and the song disappointed the vast majority of fans... do you think they’d still be making support banners or getting creative on YouTube making their own versions of the music video? Hell no. They would either move onto the next ‘fad’ hip-hop band or artist and forget them. Or you know, if they were uncivilised like me, they’d go throw dog poop at their windows and heckle them in public.


But that is not the case with Vanessa Hudgens fans with their ‘Team Hudgens’ websites and support networks. They take fandom to a whole new level and I think... I think all you good-for-nothing beatniks could learn a thing or two from them. Yeah, that’s right, I’m lecturing you! OK... not really... because... you wouldn’t listen because... you’re horrible...
Now you can say ‘but I detest Vanessa’. That’s fine. Everyone knows I’m not crazy-happy for her either. But not even the most insane Vanessa Hudgens’ hating dude-person can deny that Vanessa fans deserve a little recognition for what they do and for their dedication... and they have a lot of fun with it!


It kills me to say this because I am not a ‘touchy-feely-emotive’ person but it is beautiful, it really, REALLY is... to think some of these guys stayed up for hours talking online and waiting for this song... how they connected across countries and cultures just because they are fans of this one person. So these famous people can be a good thing in our lives after all! Now if only every single celebrity would band together for world peace... we’d be onto something.


Don't mess with Vanessa Hudgens fans - they're lethal!

So really, this is just a blog to say that if you are a Vanessa-crazy girl, guy or alien then you are part of something special. This is just a personal blog for me because this whole ‘Sneakernight’ thing got me thinking about bigger stuff... yeah, Vanessa Hudgens got me thinking about deeper issues- AMAZING... but I won’t talk about them here. Just a quick ‘keep it up, V-fenders!’ and I’m out.


Vanessa really doesn’t know how lucky she is but she is one of the more gracious stars who thanks her fans when receiving awards, so props to her for that! And ‘Sneakernight’ was horrible for me but I’m sure it’ll do something impressive in the charts because of these amazing, amazing fans... I swear, the government should recruit you guys with how organised you are...


Talking of organised...


Everyone needs to check out VanAshBrenique, they’ve started their own little campaign to get Vanessa’s song even more widely recognised. Apparently, they think Hollywood Records is screwing her over (can’t say I agree there, if the song sucks... not really the record company you can blame!) but check it out and lend a hand. They're also way better then JJ for updates on all things Disney and celebosphere!


And with that, I bid you guys a very good night!
