Britney Spears vs. Christina Aguilera vs. Pink

[Cyre2067]

Pink Rocks, She's from my town and dropped out of my high school. that and she's seemingly more tangible then other "stars"

I don't know Pink. But this summer I coudn't resist buying the first cd from Lily Allen 'Alright, Still'. The music sound like sweet pop but the lyrics are good IMO. For example:

"Everything's Just Wonderful"

Do you think, everything, everyone, is going mental,
It seems to me that it's spiraling outta control and it's inevitable,
Now don't you think,
This time is yours, this time is mine,
Its temperamental,
It seems to me, we're on all fours,
Crawling on our knees,
Someone help us please

Oh Jesus Christ almighty,
Do I feel alright? No not slightly,
I wanna get a flat I know I can't afford it,
It's just the bureaucrats who won't give me a mortgage,
Well it's very funny cos I got your f*cking money,
And I'm never gonna get it just because of my bad credit
Oh well I guess I mustn't grumble,
I suppose that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

Chorus:
Oh yeah, I'm fine,
Everything's just wonderful,
I'm having the time of my life.

Don't you want something else,
Something new, than what we've got here,
And don't you feel it's all the same,
Some sick game and it's not insincere,
I wish I could change the ways of the world,
Make it a nice place
Until that day, I guess we stay,
Doing what we do
Screwing who we screw

Why can't I sleep at night,
Don't say it's gonna be alright,
I wanna be able to eat spaghetti bolognaise,
and not feel bad about it for days and days and days.
In the magazines they talk about weight loss,
If I buy those jeans I can look like Kate Moss,
Oh no it's not the life I chose,
But I guess that's the way that things go.

When it comes to this issue everything that can be said on this subject was said in the South Park Episode -Stupid Spoiled Whore about Paris Hilton :)

Actually the song 'stupid girl' was about Paris Hilton (as one of the most obvious examples). Is it possible that South Park ripped off Pink's idea?

If you compare South Park and Pink, which is most likely to be the 'original' and which is most likely to be the rip off?

I cannot stand Britney, christina and many of the other pop-strumpets that parade around using blatanlty using sex to sell their work. I think Pink at least has the intergrity to stand up for what she belives in when she sees the pathetic role models around her, there's more to her than fake tans and slimming pills like some of these popsicles.

Yeah, I like the way she makes fun of all those sex strumpets and pop tarts. Its like a gentle reminder that sex is all these idiots have got to offer.

Pink may not be the 'sharpest tool in the shed', or the 'smoothest', but she's definately got some integrity.

Whether or not it was implied that I was selling said meme is not important :)

There is definitely
something going on with both these stories.

Hence the anti-conspiracy rant. I want this particular discussion to be filled with a certain quality of mindlessness :)

lol

I knew this thread is going to end like this :)

 

[atreides]

End, it's just starting out, and for my two cents, landing strip all the way. But this is getting off topic, let's return to what is important, who would win in a serious old skool battle between BS, CA or Pink? Enquiring minds have nothing better to do than know.

 

[Z...]

Madona would eat all three for breakfast ;)

 

[atreides]

Pre-maternal ya, but now she is like cabala mommy, and it's a little freakish.

What's really interesting to me is what is the 'macro meme' being sold here,
with the 'pop-divas' flashing their shaved vaginas, and the media keeping
it at level 1 in their reporting.

Anyone?

I don't know, but this one strikes me as being an A1 distraction - as with most reporting on any 'diva' activites in the popular culture world. Therefore its good to look at it with a more critical eye.

Something that's bothered me recently: Yes, we all know what a bunch of racists the Zionists are (who's heros are the Nazis), but does anybody have any real conception of how sexist they are?! It seems to me that above all things they may be sexist. Female presidents of Zionist influenced or controlled countries? It's not going to happen. I think people are dreaming!!!

Now, onto shaved genitalia and under the catagory of "you learn something new every day...". It seems that Arabs have this 'hang up' about animals and consider them to be 'unclean'. Animals are hairy and so too are certain parts of the body, and because there is an unspoken cultural association between hairiness and cleanliness (in Arab culture), they shave this area. Both men and women do this (apparently).

The question I would have is does Brittany know that shaving one's hairy bits is a cultural feature particular (or peculiar?) to Arabs and that she is actually supporting and promoting Arab culture by doing this? I wonder how far that idea would 'fly' in the media, although I must admit it would be rather amusing.

I'm also curious of non-Arab male attitudes towards this practice (I'm sorry Brandon, but you're not quite representative here).

Please bear in mind that I have a sneaking suspicion that despite cultural differences, it is possible that Arabs have a healthier and saner (more realistic?) attitude towards sex. I wonder if this is the case?

I have to go with Atreides on these issues. Back to main point. While Christina Aguilera is small and feisty and quite agile, her hot-headedness would not serve her well in a battle with a girl with some muscle and brains. Pink would rock her bootay. Britney might have been able to get some high kicks in her prime, but now she's just blah. She ranks third in my list. Pink could probably take both of them.

 

[atreides]

Snoogins, I bet Pink breaks Aguilera off, Hurricane Lita style. Seriousness just keeps creepin up into this, and I never associated shaving ones tackle as remotely arab, whether you go a landing strip or a moat, it's all about comfort and aesthetics, anything beyond that is like, well, kinda weird.

Well, shoot! There goes my questions, down the toilet the 'wrong' way (as usual?)! :D

I guess its the sort of thing that you have to be born into (culture) to consider 'normal'. Surprised the hell out of me too when I can across it and I'd just spent 4 weeks on clinical experience at the Royal Women's Hospital. Didn't come across it there. I'll probably have to research more on this (possibly) perculiar Arab custom.

Pink all the way. Shoot, I'm pretty sure there are plenty of guys that Pink could take. That girl would SO whup up on BS and CA. Just having a mullett is enough to convince me
