HAHAHAHAHA. Tokio Hotel on FOE.

Someone hand me the bleach.

So, I've been watching Supergroup on VH1 the last couple of days, in which a bunch of hasbeens and Scott Ian from Anthrax (BFF of fanboy and fellow Jew, the Troh) form a band and live in a house for a few weeks until they play a show.

Scott Ian is the funniest person in this. Not because of anything he says, but just because of the quiet control and almost zen-like attitude he has.

Someone tells him to do something he doesn't want to (something generally poncy and pretentious), and he just gives them this slightly innocent, slightly shocked look and shakes his head and goes, "...no." And they deal. No one makes Scott Ian do shit the way they will a tantruming Sebastian Bach. Possibly because he's so teeny, tiny and adorable. In a heavy rock dude kind of way.

Even from a few episodes of this, I can totally understand why Joe fanboys him so hard. He's great. I want a Scott Ian in my pocket.

God, I miss the mid-90s so much.

Pop music then was so different.

So, I'm watching The Ashlee Simpson Show, purely out of morbid curiosity because I'd never seen it before, and... while I totally support her reasons for the nosejob, and I think it was done very well... She was just so much prettier before. She looked so interesting and natural. It actually somehow highlighted her eyes and balanced her face, all of which seem lost, these days.

She was also slightly chubbier in the face, which she probably partially lost growing up, but it suited her.

But yes. When she was young, she was cute. And she seems like any other young American kid.

Maybe, as weird as it seems for all of us, it's not so hard to imagine or understand why Pete likes her. Personality-wise, she's not really my type, but she seems like a nice kid for the most part. I wish she'd wear enormous hoodies and stuff more, make less of a concerted effort to be pretty and girly. And stop fucking posing, and just be herself.

I think then a lot of people (at least the ones intelligent enough to accept that Pete is marrying her, goddammit) would feel much warmer toward her.

Personally, I've never hated her, because I've never known her - I hate her music, and I hate the fact that she seems to value herself so little that she moulds herself to the images/scenes her boyfriends are into, but I don't know a huge amount about her as a person. And yeah, it really shocked me to think Pete was interested in her, because I just could not figure out how that fitted, but... maybe it's not all that hard actually.


And to be perfectly honest? A couple of years back? I'd have fucked her.

AP.net has just joined Buzznet.

I'm all for indies breaking the mainstream, but... FUCKING BUZZNET? That hole of vacuous, over-made-up tweens and arrogant, self-centred wannabe celebs who are so individual they all look exactly the fucking same?

Are you kidding?

It's bad enough that FOE is affiliated with it and I therefore keep getting friends requests from that repugnant porn pit, Lila Tila blah blah whatever. So much fail, Jason Tate.

Break out the popcorn and watch the carcrash, kids.
