Yeah, nice try. I know I may be the cynical asshole here but maybe the video could've worked if the song lyrics would've at least matched the footage a little bit. That song, "Mad World", makes as much sense as Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" here. They both sound sad and have some sappy message but they have nothing to do with soldiers and war.

A complete list available if you turn on annotations:

Adele
Cher
Judy Garland
Patti Lupone
Kristin Chenoweth
Edith Piaf
Bette Midler
Julie Andrews
Liza Minelli
Bernadette Peters
Gwen Stefani
Zooey Deschanel
Britney Spears
Shakira
Alanis Morisette
Norah jones
Christina Aguilera
Celine Dion
Barbra Streisand

I'm not sure which one you refer to was winking but I think it might be Patti Lupone. My fave was Edith Piaf.

A partial list:

Adele
Cher
Edith Piaf

Shakira
Alanis Morisette
Joni Mitchell (?)
Christina Aguilera

Selena (?)
Barbra Streisand

The same reason The Sapphires shouldn't be singing country western music.

Also, Christina Aguilera is white??

> prettiest and sexiest Christina Aguilera has ever been

I liked her outfits in "Aint no other man"

Not a fan of coloratura in *any* song. Take that, Christina Aguilera!

(But that doesn't mean she doesn't get to sing it the way she wants to. It just means her version is gonna suck to my ears.)

touché!

BTW, did you know that Ryan Gosling started out in the Mickey Mouse Club with Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, and Britney Spears? I certainly didn't!

He isn't.
Project selection is as much of the craft of acting as the method of acting, itself.
>> ^alien_concept:
>> ^Trancecoach:
Anyway, I think Gosling was really good in this, but I wouldn't say he's a great actor.
The Notebook? Really?
Ed Norton, on the other hand...

That's like saying Leo Dicaprio isn't a great actor. The Titanic, really??


That's why Ed Norton was in Incredible Hulk 2 then I guess?

For her age it's good. But she's in danger of going all "Christina Aguilera", whereby instead of holding a note, she takes it up and down all the time, which I'm not a fan of. Mariah Carey does the same.

"How can absolute talent voids like Britney Spears and her ilk warrant anything but derision when compared to actual musical ability and creativity?"

Now, don't get me wrong here, but... Britney Spears and singers like her actually do have *real* talent. *NOT ALL OF THEM DO.* But some do, such as the ones that came from the Mickey Mouse Club like her and Christina Aguilera.

They have real singing talent.

However.

You are correct in that they are riding a corporate wave of success and that they do NOT write their own music.

They are corporate creations.

If you are not coming up with the MELODY in your music, you are not writing your own music.

That's the bottom line.

Back in the day, perhaps even today, Scully wouldn't be considered as beautiful or sexy when pitted in terms of Asian idea of beauty.

Interestingly enough, Christina Aguilera is considered stunningly beautiful there, without the scary make-ups that is.

"On Our Way" by Christina Aguilera. Just a shot in the dark.

@ Raven

That's probably because you don't hang around with Paris Hilton-type of party girls. Where have you been all these years? You don't remember the days when media started calling Madonna an ideal feminist, and that somehow got her kissing on stage with Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera?? And the day after when people called it 'disgusting', other people defended the action by calling it a 'feminine expression'???

I've had the mortal displeasure of hanging around with a lot of brain-dead college girls, thanks to my party loving roomates. And these girls actually quoted Beyonce (the singer) to prove feminism to me. The whole argument started when they started driveling about what they learned in feminist class that afternoon and how they were 'oppressed' by the men all these years, and how it prevented the female gender to truly 'express' themselves.

The recent rise of 'expressive feminism' clearly had a huge impact on pop culture, and definitely are related to one another. The corporate world merely followed the trends, and all they did was identifying the market and going with the flow. In media, it is used as an excuse to further exploit the already lucrative idea of 'sex sells'. And as individuals, we are no longer allowed to tell them not to do it, because if you did, you'd be 'oppressing' women. And they've been selling sex for quite awhile, but the difference is that this time they've got the philosophic community on their side, so now you've got to argue against feminism when you're trying to limit them.

The MTV and the gangs did capitalize on this and thrived and using it as an excuse to start going with raunchier, naughtier shows without getting backlashed for being immoral. But the point is that the feminist idea was already there to embrace these things. And it was just a matter of time before major celebrities in popular culture started marketing themselves as 'newage feminists' and embraced this idea of woman 'expressing' herself with open arms, by justifying themselves from selling sex appeal, and just ran with it through mountains and oceans.

I mean, today's line of pop artists such as 'the pussy cat dolls' make the old 'spice girls' look like a bunch of Mormons in Halloween costumes. And I would've thought I would at least be 40 when I started talking about the big 'morality' subject and 'young people going too far'. But the transformation of attitude in popular opinion has been so rapid that even a person in their mid 20s like me are starting to fear if we really ARE that decadent.

So tell me, how are they not related?

p.s I'd like to see some female sifters' comments here to see what they have to say about the subject.
