So…Miley Cyrus doesn’t like Rebecca Black. Not even a little bit. And here’s why.

But I have to wonder. I mean, isn’t that a little bit like the pot calling the kettle…well, Black? They’re both teen pop stars (or soon to be pop stars). They both appeal to a younger audience. They’re both relatively annoying super cool. But yet Miley doesn’t like the girl that has been trending on Twitter for weeks. And you want to know why?

Because it was too easy for her to get famous. Miley doesn’t think someone should be able to put up a video on YouTube and then end up with a hit single and a tour. Um, hello Miley, have you not met Justin Bieber? That’s exactly how he was discovered/got a 3D IMAX movie. So why are you singling out the newest teen queen? Why should it matter how Rebecca Black made it big? Read More »

To our wonderful (and outspoken) readers,

Like many of you, we were really upset yesterday to see that Demi Lovato had to leave her tour and check herself into to a treatment center for unspecified reasons. Self mutilation, eating disorders, and general self-esteem issues aren’t a joke and we don’t find them funny. That’s why we cover these topics on a regular basis in a serious way.

So when we asked a writer to talk about Demi and her relation to the Disney curse, we were not attempting to turn her problems into a laughing matter. We were instead, pointing out the obvious. Several of the successful Disney teen stars have ended up going to rehab for a variety of problems. It’s undeniable that it’s related to being a child star. Being a teenager is hard enough — let alone being a teenager in the national spotlight.

Disney turns these regular children into super-humans. 14 year-olds are expected to keep up the perfect Disney image, to be national role models while living in one of the most unhealthy environments in the country. So when a Disney star decides she’s done being a Disney girl, she has to go to extremes to break out of that mold. Demi went to extremes. And now she’s in a treatment center.

Things just got really cute at The Limited.

The Jonas Brothers (one of whom, let’s not kid ourselves, is going to turn out to be gay) are all over the airwaves these days. Disney is pimping these kids out hardcore; giving them their own band, TV movie, and so many endorsements I’m sure they’re already richer than I’ll ever be. Hell, I’m ten years too old for the Disney channel but still know waaayyy more about these nubile young boys (somebody needs to tell their stylist to LAY OFF the foundation. Geeze) than certain cousins in my immediate family.

Speaking of TMI, I already knew the J. Bros wore promise rings. Whether Disney put a (metaphoric) gun to their head, or they really all want to wait until marriage to get it on, I never thought much about the religious implications behind those rings. Yes, certain devout Christian peeps tend to hang onto their V-cards longer than a lot of us, but I never assumed the Jonas Bros were trying to impart any kind of religious message on the impressionable youth of this sugar-pop obsessed country.

I assumed wrong.

At least according to Fox News. Read More »
