I just read We're So Famous by Jaime Clarke. It's the most low culture book of all time. "Imagine Britney Spears narrating The Day of the Locust as a gentle fable..." is what Bret Easton Ellis had to say about it.
Yesterday, I watched Popular.
And then Hairspray.
Both of these are very low-culture. And very fabulous.
Then I went to a gay club and danced my ass off. To Britney. To Beyonce. To Justin. To early Madonna. To Blondie. The B-52's. Kylie - five times. Then Justin again.
Oh, and the missy madonna corporate bootleg, which my friends all love.
It was a very lowculture sort of day. That's why my sentences aren't very long. I can't hold a thought for longer than an MTV soundbyte.
Finally, how come Geeks and Freaks never got onto terrestrial TV?

I remember seeing Popular about a year ago and hating it - it was like an angstier Dawson's Creek.
I watched it again yesterday and nearly laughed myself sick. It was pure genius.
"....i keep remembering her last words"
"What were they?"
"I like big butts and i can not lie......."

Still as quasi-religious childrens books go its good that its not Christian at heart. Pity it's more about her making money, cementing her status as 'icon' and getting a face lift than teaching children semi-Jew stories. ps I like some of her music sometimes |

More than her older stuff (which is still great) I mean I dont want to be all zealotish but I just happen to like her music. Hooray for me! |

She worships at the altar of the mighty Upyourownarse! She's clearly better at the Yoga than I had thought. |

She's clearly better at the Yoga than I had thought. Why do you think she took up yoga in the first place? |

Gotcha, BF. That would also explain the constant tinny 'echo' effect on her voice...

ps - popular was the best thing about channel 5 and now its gone, all gone! They're repeating it, though - that's better than nothing! Would this be a good time to bring up my "would anyone support an online petition for Popular to be released on DVD" argument? |

as far as i'm concerned madonna has finally cracked. is she hindu? buddhist? jewish? christian? zoroastrian? pagan? Who does she think she is, Boy George? I have even gone off ITV because they seem to show that Missy & Madonna ad in every single ad break and it is destroying my will to live. I don't care if Madonna sinks to the lowest of the low, but did she have to take Missy with her? |
