(That's not why I hate her, I just thought my fellow Christina haters would like to know.)
I've heard this girl actually has talent. Supposedly she has more musical talent in her little finger than all the BSB combined. While that's certainly not a difficult thing to do, I'll reserve judgement on this issue for another five years. If, at that time, she is still recording and the BSB are not, then I will say that she has talent. That is, if she's not still making the same shitty music. Keep in mind that in five years, Christina will be either 23 or 24. If she's genuinely good, then by that time she should realize that it's really stupid for a 20-something person to be recording teeny music. If she is still recording teeny music at that time, then I will still be laughing my ass off and insulting her. And some weirdo said that Christina is not really pop... well I want to know what that person is smoking. Christina IS pop. She is played almost exclusively by pop stations, she is a regular on TRL, and choreography is a large part of her show. Hmm... sounds like every other pop artist I know.
Bottom line? People who like Christina even a little bit need to shove it, I'm not changing my site just because you don't like it.
The reason I'm not impressed with her songs so far is that they all get stuck in your head!! It can't take a hell of a lot of talent to repeat yourself over and over again. Both "Genie in a Bottle" and "What a Girl Wants" have provided me with hours of I-can't-get-that-damn-song-out-of-my-head fun. (And Christine, this is not a positive thing. Good music like Aretha Franklin does not get stuck in one's head. Also, read more carefully, I never said she was catchy. 80's music is catchy. Christina is just damned annoying.)
Plus, it's not exactly original to sing about love and sex. Almost every other artist since the beginning of rock and roll has done a song about love and/or sex. And the lyric "Somebody who's crazy sexy cool like you?" You know she had to have gotten that from the TLC album.
I can't believe they gave this girl a Grammy. Have the Grammy voters lost their eardrums or were they just bought off? Kid Rock got robbed. Grammies should go to people whose show isn't based on choreography, and Kid Rock and Macy Gray are the only artists in that category who fits that description. I'm not a huge Kid Rock fan, but he's a lot better than Christina. (I don't know much about Macy Gray, but she probably deserved this award more than Christina too. I vote we take Christina's Grammy away and let Macy Gray and Kid Rock fight over it.)
I finally found some pics that seem to prove that Miss Christina had a boob job. Take a peek and decide for yourselves. (Keep in mind that she is 18 so it's unlikely that her breasts grew naturally.) I would say she's a Britney copycat, but her music is better than Brit's. (But not by much.)
