I hate today´s showbusiness. The only way people can impress nowadays is by acting like a porn stars. How pathetic. Where are all the Sades, Lisa Stansfields, Tina Turners, Annie Lenoxes who could sell millions of records just by making great music?

Uh, didn't Tina Turner used to pretend to jack off her microphone?

No, that was Prince.

Tina did it before he did.

I was being facetious. Tina simulated handjobs on stage in the late 1960s and early 70s, while under the dictator-like control of Ike Turner. What's Keri's excuse?

The "Soul To Soul" concert/performance of "I've Been Loving For Too Long", its on DVD. Sorry can't post youtube since I'm @ work.

That video and song is so wrong in every way possible. What on earth were they thinking?!?

And the award for biggest music/video failure of the year goes to... Keri Hilson!

I can't stop laughing, I need some air...

The dumbest thing is that I know I'll have "fuck me fuck me, it's the way you fuck me" on repeat in my mind.

Actually, she's saying "...thug me, thug me, it's the way you thug me..."

I'm still not feeling the song, she is trying way too hard and she got the nerve to talk about Beyonce. Keri, one thang about it baybeh, you could possibly NEVAH!

What did she say?

If that ain't the pot calling the kettle a greasy black sonofabitch, I don't know what is.

Actually, I don´t know. Haven´t seen a footage of her like that, but I don´t remember a song of hers with lyrics "fuck me, fuck me, fuck me".

You sure? I really don't think she is. I clearly hear the f-word and so do the lyric sites online. Even if she'd say "thug", she still means the other word. Woman is horny.

Who exactly is impressed by this video, though?

I don't really see anyone overly "impressed" by highly sexual videos/stars these days...doesn't stop them trying it on but still...

I'm not impressed by this because frankly she really does not have to go this route.....I was a bit shocked at first, then I was like ok here is another newbie I tried to give a shot and then shit like this manifest.

Here's Keri explaining herself

Uh, Tina has stated before that she hated having to do this. Ike was the one pushing her to do it. If she didn't do it, then we all know what would happen, she would have gotten her ass beat. But Tina did not enjoy being overtly sexual on stage like this. It wasn't her idea.

Unlike Kerri.

I'm not suprised by this though. She doesn't have any singing or dancing talent, so she has to resort to things like this to get attention. She is better behind the scenes. She needs to stick to songwriting because her music sucks.

I could believe it because she hasn't done it since she left him.

Quote of the Day: Keri Hilson (Throwback)

Speaking in a 2009 interview with Complex magazine, Keri Hilson said:

I don’t want to be oversexed! I don’t want to sell sex, I want to sell music. I want to inspire others, I don’t want to be one of those people who’s always throwing their body at the masses. What good does that do? Besides sell records. Men don’t buy records, anyway.

Hmm…

Exactly.

Tina also said she HATED doing it.

wow great find with that article and quote, this is why i say dont buy what artists say, Keri is FOS, if she wants me to believe that she is such an artist, cut a track with Ryan Adams and try and sell that to your audience, and when it doesnt sell dont BACK OFF, stand your fucking ground be an artist. I mean its the typical i want to be seperate from those other girls....give it up already. ANd that quote, i mean i know people say things that they didnt feel "back in the day" and now feel different, but that quote was less than a year ago!!

As for videos, i dont really know, the only good thing is artists having their own youtube/veo channels because i aint sitting through Snooki and reruns of I love new york or some lame BET show to get a new AMerie video.

If I had a nickel for everytime an "artist" who claimed they were about "substance", the "music" and the "art", and they're "different",turn around and come a hair short of pr0n in their next video, i'd take my millions and direct their next "video" ( ) and be broke all over again.

Yeah and im sure that if this album doesnt "move" which is not going to, because she is in that "web" of marketing, im guessing she will have a new angle next album where she says "the last album wasnt really me, this new is more of me" well that would be easy to accept if you were actually writing and producing the work

And if THAT doesn't work, she'll bitch about how she's treated by the label. Like you said, it's like watching the same movie with the same sad ending.
