Okay, she definately has the moves. But what else??
She can't sing (not well anyway), there's no instrument playing to make her endearing... So what's the hype? How can she have made it so far when there is so much talent out there that makes it nowhere?!?
At least Christina Aguilera can sing...

She seems so average that you'd think she's interchangeable with any young woman, but I think we have to give her credit for stage presence. I agree, her voice isn't all that great, but she does have the ability to captivate an audience, something even people with the most amazing voices and moves can't learn to do no matter what.

Good point. But I still can't see going to her concerts. Watching her dance might be entertaining, but I could go do that at a strip club for less money... And her voice would annoy me to the point of leaving. I can't stand to hear her studio cuts (most of the time), so I can't imagine what she sounds like live...

Yeah, I'm definitely not planning on going to see her live or buying any of her records, I just happened to think of at least one redeeming quality. And by the way, I'm totally with you on the Christina Aguilera thing, she's my pick out of the two for sure.

Um, just like the studio recordings because she *totally* lipsyncs!! Have you ever seen her do any "live" performance on TV? Half the time she doesn't even bother to move her lips. Apparently as long as her tits are moving, her fans don't seem to care if her lips are moving.

I read an interview Blender magazine did with Christina Aguilera, and she said that Britney lip syncs a lot... And, that is a great comment: "Apparently as long as her tits are moving, her fans don't seem to care if her lips are moving." It must be true, since she is pretty much a billionaire...

Yeah but aren't her fans mostly 10 year old girls or thirty year old gay dudes? (regarding the "tits" comment. GOD I hate that word) I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure they're not into that sort of thing. Lipsynching is a definite no-no when you're a "singer." It's so obvious when she does it too. A crying shame I tell you. Her excuse of course is that all the dancing makes singing difficult, and I agree. How can anyone sing while doing the roger rabbit or whatever moves they're doing these days? Stick to one or the other I guess? I do feel kind of sad whenever someone's star starts to fall. Britney, Avril etc. what the heck are they going to do with their lives now that they're washed up?

That's ok. The word doesn't exactly offend me, it's just a weird word.

I'm kind of not really liking Britney at all... not even her stage pressence... I mean... that whole wedding thing... just everything she's doing lately...is wrong... she sells through sex to the males... and like her main guts of fans are, as someone said, 10 year old girls... infact, they'd look to her as a role model *gulp* so what example is she really setting? ...not a very good one in my opinion...

I definately agree with that. I was thoroughly happy when my 10-year-old cousin said that she didn't like Britney Spears. Considering her dad listens to heavy metal all of the time, I'm not surprsied.
Though I'm not so sure that those groups are better role models. Chances are Allison's going to have a potty mouth later in life, but I do too so who knows?? But, at least they don't give the impression that you have to be beautiful to make it in the world... If nothing just the opposite. Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People" points that out...
