Manufactured Pop Trash

[mc_squared]

O.K., guys, to mark Groanan Keating and Wastelife's petulant outburst re: their exclusion from Band Aid 20, I reckon we should compile a list of all such "fast food" pop acts to consign to Room 101 for eternity.
I'll set the ball rolling with a few to add to the two above:

Busted (AKA B*stard), McFly (AKA Let Fly), Gareth G(r)ates, Britney and Peter Andre.

O.K., over to the rest of you!! :)

[mc_squared]

Oh - nearly forgot! Michelle (Fat)Manus!! :lol:

[mc_squared]

Talking of MPT, Peter Andre and Jordan should be thrown into Room 101 together.............especially after their toe-curling interview on Frank Skinner. Talk about "sick in a bucket"!!

[mc_squared]

I hereby launch C.A.M.P. (Campaign Against Manufactured Pop). Anyone want to join up?? Reckon we could give UKIP a run for their money!! :o)

[mycdplayerisbroke]

wow 4 posts in a row, that's gotta be a record

[mc_squared]

Well that's more than can be said of any of the acts listed!! :lol:

[yorkeisagod]

:D

[mc_squared]

So would you like to add any names??

[Sweet One]

um..................

LINDSAY LOHAN and HILARY DUFF!!!

Expository. :)

[Corner Kid]

Laura beat me to it.

[*Justine*]

Too many to mention.

[Sweet One]

Laura beat me to it.


;)

[mc_squared]

So who can explain to me who Lindsay Lohan and Hilary Duff are?? Where are they from and what songs are they famous for destroying?? I've heard of the latter, but that's about all!!

[LiquidSky]

They are actresses and now singers...Hilary Duff sounds like..I don't know and Lindsay Lohan sounds like britney spears

[mc_squared]

What do you mean, you "don't know" what Hilary Duff sounds like?? So is "Duff" an appropriate name for her, or what??
And if Lindsay Lohan sounds like Britney, she has my deepest sympathy!! Is she "trailer trash", too?? :) :)

[LiquidSky]

well I do know who she is...and I've heard some of her songs...but I don't know who else sounds like her...that's what I meant...

[mc_squared]

So does she just sound awful, then? Or is she Miss Lipsync like Britney??

[LiquidSky]

Her music sounds like britney's music..I don't know if she lipsyncs also..never seen her perfom live

[mc_squared]

What about on TV - they tend to lipsync on there, too!!

[LiquidSky]

I've never seen her perfom!! :idea2:

[mc_squared]

So how do you know she's so terrible?? Reputation alone??

[LiquidSky]

Not to be rude..but are you reading? :huh: I wasn't the one that said they were terrible... :( :huh:

[mc_squared]

But you do agree?? Anyway, why not add some names of your own??

[LiquidSky]

I only told you what they were and what they sound like...I actually like one song of Hilary Duff :stunned: dan dan dan! :stunned: it's called "Come Clean" :P and Lindsay Lohan..I've only heard one song of hers called "Rumors" and like I said...she sounds like britney spears....

I don't like Anastacia.....

[mc_squared]

As far as Duff and Lohan are concerned, I hope you grow out of it.
Asfor Anastacia, I don't like her either, although she can actually sing and I wouldn't class her as "MPT".

[mc_squared]

Still waiting for nominations!!

[Mimixxx]

Ashlee Simposon with her hilarious SNL cock up :lol:

[mc_squared]

*What was that?? Isn't she related to JESSICA Simpson??

[Evori]

Ashlee Simposon with her hilarious SNL cock up :lol:

:lol: :lol:

[Mimixxx]

Yeah she's her sister.

She did this interview saying she'd never lip sync and that she hated it. Then she went on Saturday Night Live and sung one song and then later sang the other. Trouble is she started to 'sing' the lyrics for her new single but the first song started playing. She just stood there for a minute then ran off :lol:

Later she blamed her band :dozey:

[mc_squared]

A bad worker always blames the tools!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) Maybe her real name is Ash-"Mini Vani"-Lee Simpson???? :lol:

[yorkeisagod]

and she blamed acid reflux disease.... :lol: psh yeah right....

[mc_squared]

ARD?? Never heard of it!! Could that be a figment of her imagination along with her singing ability?? In Germany ARD is a TV station. Maybe she's sucking up to them in return for some exposure!! :lol:

[DavidG]

manifactured pop isnt bad if they are good looking females in my opinion :lol: :P

[mc_squared]

Well unfortunately it's that kind of thinking that's responsible for so much trash being inflicted upon us in the first place. The girls will say the same about the likes of Wastelife and B*stard. The fact is, the music? sucks and doesn't deserve to get an airing at all!! There are loads of glamour-pusses in the magazines - that doesn't mean they all have a right to sing. Anyway, you'll probably grow out of it (I hope)! :o)

[DavidG]

I was joking mate...lol :lol:

I love music, not "music" ;)

[mc_squared]

If you're so desperate to listen to a "chart" star who looks good too, I suggest you give Joss Stone a try. She happens to have a phenomenal voice!!

[DavidG]

:lol: im not...im fine...but thank you ;)

[mc_squared]

As long as you really ARE joking, you're absolved!! :lol: There's a website for people who like that kind of cr*p - it's called Pop Justice. However, as soon as you criticise any of the "artistes" on there, you get "banned". Try it out and see!

[DavidG]

:lol: really? im quite tempted to see that :D

[mc_squared]

Please, go ahead - and see if you can manage to get banned from it for a laugh!! :lol:

[DavidG]

indeedy :lol:

[mc_squared]

Anyway, for posterity, I feel it's time for me to post my award-winning lyric to Michelle "Fat"Manus's horrendous ditty "All This Time".
Please feel free to add to it or post any other alternative lyrics you might think up:

"All This Time..............................
I've scoffed a hundred cakes today,
I look like a whale you've gotta say,
Can you hazard a guess how much I weigh?

All This Time,
This is a bl**dy dreadful song,
It just drones on and on and on,
My singing career won't last for long.......................

And that last line seems to have been very prophetic!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[mc_squared]

To be officially added to the list: anyone from Pop Idol and Popstars with the exception of Will Young.

[mc_squared]

Plus ALL boy bands without exception!!

[Sweet One]

Um, Clay Aiken. Just b/c I don't think he should be THAT popular.

Oh, and Lindsay Lohan's song "Rumors" is like the worst piece of crap, possibly ever.

She needs to get away. Fast.

[mc_squared]

I'm familiar with Clay "Ache"ken as American Idol was shown in the U.K., but although he can at least sing, I think his style of music is very bland and unappealing. Then again, I think Ruben was very overrated, too - like a vastly inferior version of Luther Vandross.
Don't think either of them has released anything remotely decent since the competition.
I think American Idol and U.K. Pop Idol have one thing in common - the first winners (namely Kelly Clarkson and Will Young) were head and shoulders above anyone who have followed since.
The competitions have gone downhill since - the greatest example being Michelle "Fat"manus. She was useless!

I don't know anything about this Lindsay Lohan at all - can anyone enlighten me?? Is she an alien abductee who has mysteriously returned to Earth or something? Can anyone supply a photo?
What type of song is it?

[mc_squared]

Is that Michelle "Fat"Manus?

[mc_squared]

Michelle "Fat"Manus??

Oh lord. I mean, yes, the man can sing, but i just think he shouldn't be THAT popular. haha..i certainly don't think my mom should own his record either. :)

[mc_squared]

It's always "mums" who seem to go for those kinds of acts - except MY mum, fortunately.
She likes disco house, Will Young, Joss Stone and Jamie Cullum. She does watch the shows (as do I), but doesn't vote or buy the product afterwards (with the exception of Will Young). She likes Kelly Clarkson, too - but I think that's O.K.

[Sweet One]

Kelly Clarkson is alright in my books too.

My mom loved Canadian Idol. She actually voted and stuff. Scary.

[LiquidSky]

If you're so desperate to listen to a "chart" star who looks good too, I suggest you give Joss Stone a try. She happens to have a phenomenal voice!!

I only like one cover she did of the white stripes...but her voice bores me... :/ She can sing..no doubt about that...but I don't know..I just don't like her songs... :(

[mc_squared]

Kelly Clarkson is alright in my books too.

My mom loved Canadian Idol. She actually voted and stuff. Scary.

*Was there anything worth voting for?? The winner of the first Canadian Idol was a Buddy Holly lookalike, wasn't he? I saw him on "World Idol" last Christmas.
Stick to Sarah McLachlan, that's what I say! I saw her in concert a couple of weeks ago, and it was a classy show.

*That's a fair comment. I wouldn't call myself a fan, either. I was just using her as an example of someone with a commercial edge who actually has some singing skill, as opposed to all the MPT out there!!

Sarah McLachlan is cool...definitely better than some of the other crap our country has the tendency to birth.

Simple Plan suck. That's pretty much all you need to know.

[mc_squared]

Then I suppose I'll just have to take your word for it!! I'm sure they can't be as bad as "B*stard", though!!

[Sweet One]

I don't know who or what that is.

[mc_squared]

Well, they're actually called Busted, but I think my name for them is far more appropriate!!

[Egghead]

:lol:

I'm fleeing to Mexico. Wanna come with?

[mc_squared]

Hang on - I'll check my schedule!

[shorti]

gareth f**kin gates is puff, i dnt lyk busted or mcfly, peter andre thinkin he special and totally brill, f**k this shit its all crap all pop music is shit :P

[mc_squared]

Good call!! I wouldn't go as far as saying ALL pop music, but I get your drift! GAYreth GAYtes was already on the list, of course - one of the "founder members" in fact (see "anyone from Pop Idol"). He's dreadful. And Peter Andre's a total joke (especially when he's with Jordan).

[mc_squared]

Hurrah! At long bloody last!! Posh Spice has finally done something good - she's quit!! A victory for C.A.M.P., methinks!! :lol:

Posh Spice calls it quits for singing

UPI - Tuesday, November 23, 2004

Date: Tuesday, November 23, 2004 3:32:44 PM EST

LONDON, Nov. 23 (UPI) -- Victoria Beckham, formerly Posh Spice with the Spice Girls, has decided to stop pursuing a solo singing career after several failed attempts.

Beckham, the wife of soccer star David Beckham, announced her retirement from the music industry Monday, Britain's Daily Mail reported Tuesday.

"The music industry is not what it was," said the 30-year-old Beckham. "It seems to me that people will readily accept me dedicating myself to fashion. I know that I could never become the best singer in the world. I am conscious of that. However, everything to do with fashion comes naturally to me."

Beckham recently launched her own fashion label, DVB, and is set to design jeans for fashion company Rock and Republic and bags for the Samantha Thavasa label.

The only Spice Girl not to have a No. 1 solo record, Beckham lives in Spain where her husband plays for the Real Madrid.

The mother of two is expecting her third child in March.

[Sweet One]

Posh Spice?? Crazy.

[mc_squared]

Not the word I'd use to describe her - more like, "talentless" or "sh*t"!! :)

[mc_squared]

And is there any truth in the rumour that following Ashlee Simpson's dreadful non-performance on TV, "Saturday Live"'s name is going to be changed to "Saturday UNlive"?? :lol: :lol: :lol:

[°°°Morning°Glory°°°]

What do you mean, you "don't know" what Hilary Duff sounds like?? So is "Duff" an appropriate name for her, or what??
And if Lindsay Lohan sounds like Britney, she has my deepest sympathy!! Is she "trailer trash", too?? :) :)
Lindsay sings??? please no, I liked her so far for her acting

[mc_squared]

And she should certainly stick to it!

[mc_squared]

Got another one for the list - Jo Jo. She's totally lame!!

[staring elf]

Cheeky Girls :dozey:

The take my shoes off song was ace :dozey:

[mc_squared]

You mean "DISGR-ace"!! Everything about them was awful, and I hope we've heard the last of them. With any luck, they've already gone back to Transylvania with their horrible mum!! :)
Oh, and by the way, you should call them the CHEAPY girls, 'cos that's what they are!! :lol:

[staring elf]

With any luck, they've already gone back to Transylvania with their horrible mum!!

Ah, bless! :)

One more : Tatu :/

[mc_squared]

You mean the Russian (pretend) lesbians?? Yeah - they've disappeared without trace, too!!

[Alessa]

[mc_squared]

[mc_squared]

Does SHE know?? :)

[Alessa]

:lol: good question! :lol:

[mc_squared]

And does anyone care??

[Alessa]

[°°°Morning°Glory°°°]

Got another one for the list - Jo Jo. She's totally lame!!

[x_Punkrock Princess_x]

O.K., guys, to mark Groanan Keating and Wastelife's petulant outburst re: their exclusion from Band Aid 20, I reckon we should compile a list of all such "fast food" pop acts to consign to Room 101 for eternity.
I'll set the ball rolling with a few to add to the two above:

Busted (AKA B*stard), McFly (AKA Let Fly), Gareth G(r)ates, Britney and Peter Andre.

O.K., over to the rest of you!! :)

omg how can u say that, Busted and McFLy are gr8, u can't just go around judging the band for the type of music they play so wot if it is pop it still sounds gr8, im a fan of both busted and mcfly and i say it proudly!!
i h8 it when ppl judge you for the type of music you listen to, its stupid cuz it doesnt make u less of a person 4 lykin it :angry:

are you a chav, your talking like one and you like bands that are what i can only say is are insults to the rock industry. let alone to drummers, bassists and of course guitarists

[Reilly]

The guy who made this topic is really scary, "Dont you HATE THEM?! DONT YOU?!?! NOMINATE THEM GOD DAMNIT OR GO TO HADES!!!!"

And this topic sucks, its such a waste of everyones time. You'd think if this guy really hated these acts and artists he wouldnt spend so much time fussing over them and giving them childishly un-funny nicknames.

[x_Punkrock Princess_x]

Anyone on Lindsay Lohan or Hillary Duff ? :embarrased:

Some Man-Pop is good (Girls Aloud) and good for the radio.

And when you have to listen to the radio at work due to a manager who hogs it and leaves it on radio 1, good man pop is better than some of the crap rap they play
