Stunned into Submission

[stungunbilly]

I made the horrible mistake of trying to actually watch Longshot.

I'm stunned stupid, folks. No snippets tonight, my whacked-out cynicism quotient is at an all-time high.

So here is my list of-

Words and phrases that should never again be spoken by any pop star, as part of the “getting honest” trend.

taking it to the next level
reinvent
more myself
[insert claim of friendship with other rising celeb]
stripped down
raw
influenced but still me
next big thing
more honest
get real

Because, darlings, we’ve got it. You are all graduating from Pop U. this year. We know you want us to buy the album. We understand you are being “genuine” now. We realize that you are trying for a less plastic image.

Yes, yes, you are all so original and unique. All of you. And raw, and dangerously wild yet sweet. Adult, grownup, in charge. But lovable. We get it.

And if you won’t quit with the beating us over the head about it, we are going to force you to wear the hats with the little Mickey ears. And listen to the Pogues on headphones. While we laugh, and dance to old skool ska. Oops, old skool is on the list.
I'm messed.

Night guys, stay sane.
