A trend I'd like to put an end to.......

Blonde suburban chicks with ZIP musical talent dying their hair pitch black, wearing tank tops instead of tube tops and calling themselves "rockers" (although they'll still magically find time for the Revlon commercial). The Marketing Machine is in overdrive with Ashlee Simpson at the moment, and she's probably the most pathetic of the lot.



Can we please banish her to Pluto and bring back

I'd like to put an end to the marketing method of not allowing an artist or group to release an album without at least one collaboration with another "hot" performer of the moment.

Doesn't anybody know how to make a record alone anymore???

Lita Ford was a Runaway? (Looks like her, anyway.)

I don't know much about the Donna's. Do they rock?

I'd like to put an end to MTV.

Then it wouldn't matter if you could shake your little hot ass in a camera and music would go back to ability.

As far as the kids go, I blame the parents for not educating them on what music is and is not.

lol What other chicks out there are dying their hair and singing rock nowadays. I know it's Ashlee Simpson, but who else...

Christina Aguilera did it with Figther.

Did Hillary Duff do it?

Is Michelle Branch naturally brunette?

Who else is dying their hair black.

Kelly Osbourne is a natural blonde, so she does count, but I think maybe voices carry was trying to make a point of these white girls calling themselves 'Rockers' and trying their hardest to fit the bill. It really does suck that this is what's popular at the moment. Ashlee Simpson, who does happen to have a decent voice, doesn't have any real talent. She is trying to capitalize on her sisters success by trying to NOT be like her...weird. Why does she have her own show??

FYI..Lita Ford was a Runaway

Smooches;)

clapping We need to go back to the way it was before MTV, VH1, and BET hit the airwaves. Back when you had to have a good song and voice, because the radio stations were all that was around. It didn't matter what the singer looked like back then...well, until they did a TV interview anyway. lol

Lol, I'm not sure, but I was mainly discussing the idea that the marketing deparments are just crafting a certain image for these girls (who are not musicians) so they can sell them as "rock". This is simply because Jessica is already cornering the blonde teeny pop market, and they couldn't have two of them with the same last name, you know?

So far we've got:

-Ashlee Simpson
-Avril Lavigne ("I write my own songs, and shit." Yeah, sure Avril. Did you add a period at the end of a phrase?)
-Kelly Osbourne
-Christina Aguilera ca. "Fighter"
-Amy Lee (although she's got perhaps some credibility, she still can't sing)
-Hilary Duff ("Where Did I Go Right?", her latest single, is sooo Avril, OMG!)

AND NEXT UP: Lindsay Lohan (just watch)

Ok, I have to disagree there. Amy Lee has a very powerful voice. Now, her image is very contrived, but I saw her perform live and she was amazing.

Smooches;)

I will say this: after Christina, she has the best voice of the lot. I'm just not feeling it, I guess.

Hey, leave Avril alone. With everyone on your list, she is the only legit musician. The others don't have a clue.

In your opinion, maybe. But at least she has a solid head on her shoulders, despite being Canadian.

I would also like to blow up most of the radio stations shoveling shit, and put an end to 'Days Of OUr Lives', and take some of those shite casting agents and put them on some island- Beyonce 4 lois lane in the next Superman feature? I don't think so.
