Anyways, I have noticed the clothing or lack there of that these girl groups are wearing. It's sickening. They are supposed to be role models to the youth.
The Pussycat Dolls and Girlicious are two of the biggest girl groups right now. They are produced by the same people and sing the same kind of crap. There really is no difference between them. Neither group is more talented or attractive than the other.
The only difference is one group has more skanklicious members.
Girlicious
Pussycat Dolls
Spice Girls
The Spice Girls much like other girl bands were not particularily talented, however they promoted Girl Power and encouraged young girls to be the best they could be. At least the Spice Girls had something to stand for, something to believe in, what do these girls offer? Fashion tips on hwo to be the best skank you can be? How to wear the least amount of clothing? Apparently to be successful, you have to be willing to leave your dignity and self respect at home with your clothing. You don't have to be talented or attractive just willing to take off your clothes like a stripper, appear in almost soft porn music videos and promote wearing your underwear in public while dancing on cars, in alleys, streets, whatever the creative director feels will give these girls more media attention. How sad is it that for young women to live their dreams they have to settle for this and leave their morals behind. So I ask you "Where is the Girl Power?"

There is a challenge and a giveaway at my blog... stop by if you get a chance.
They make me itchy.
how about this....how about producing and promoting albums by strong women who actually have something to say???? And something to teach??? Aimee Mann, Natalie Merchant, Jewel(once upon a time before the money?), Edie Brickell, the Be Good Tanyas....
we(women) seemed to coming on as strong and intelligent not too long ago...
not so sure now.
Aw heck, I say just let the Spice Girls kick out the unreleased jams, throw a couple shindigs for it without too much fuss and let the good times roll for all the fans that bought tickets (or couldn't afford to) to their Reunion tour. I'd really prefer some product of new material of easy purchase instead of all this online hunting!
Ahem, I do recall them seeing a little on the skimpy dress side back then, though I was into Sailor Moon at the time so what did I care?
So far the only girl group I've noticed recently to tickle my fancy is Girl's Generation (whatever their Korean title is, I forget). Yeah, they'e manufactured, but heck I still dig the Monkees... Girls Generation have a video where members dress up like Wonder Woman and defend themselves against a flasher. Scary but maybe that was what you were looking for???
