“Party In The USA”

Posted by WillowRaine on August 12, 2009 | No Comments

For someone who never (make that almost never, now) watches the Teen Choice Awards I have surely discussed them a lot lately. I have to say, it wasn’t THAT bad, I mean, if given the choice between Walking the plank or watching the awards show, I’d probably pick the latter, no, no I definitely would.
There are whales in the ocean, and they could eat me. So, yes, I’d watch the awards, but I digress.
I have heard a ton of mixed reviews about the performance by Miss Miley Cyrus, and I, myself actually have a rather mixed opinion.
Now, I like the song, it’s catchy, and upbeat. It was obviously made for her voice, and it just works. The problem with most everyone about the performance, was a combination of her clothing, and her dancing.
Okay, please bear with me for a moment and allow me to address her clothing issue: She had on short shorts, and yes they were barely there.. however, is that such a travesty, considering millions of ADULT (most of them WAY over 18,or 21 even) Twilight fans the world over, drool over 17 year old Taylor Lautner and want him naked constantly? The difference? The lovely double standard.. what is right for a man, isn’t right for a woman.
Does that mean I want Miley objectified? NO, far from.
But two things to consider, first, and hopefully foremost, she is coming into herself, becoming her own person,maybe that has bearing on her new clothes (or maybe she wore those clothes to signify what she’d wear during the summer?! *gasp*), and then there always remains the fact, that sex sells.
It’s sad. It’s horrible. It’s true.
Maybe she is but a product of her environment? Some of the words to her song..

Maybe she’s trying to fit in. Either way, the girl is ridiculously talented, and amazingly beautiful. If she keeps her head about her, and grows with her music, she has no worries.
Her daddy is from Kentucky, I dare say he won’t let her get too far out there, believe me, he’ll straighten her out if he needs to.
So, let her cut loose, and have some fun.
Dressing cute, and sexy (even if it is a bit too early) doesn’t make her a whore, a slut, or a stripper, so let’s stop bashing her shall we?

Kristen Stewart IS Gorgeous

Posted by WillowRaine on August 11, 2009 | 12 Comments

I have had it up to here *Pointing way above my head because I’m short* with people saying that Kristen Stewart is ugly, unattractive, and not suited for the role of Isabella Swan.
Seriously folks, the girl is gorgeous! Quite obviously nobody will live up to the perfect ideal for Bella, and do you know why? Because it isn’t you. It’s also amusing to me, how everyone loves and adores Robert Pattinson (IE the face of Edward Cullen) yet, they dislike Bella in general. Well, without Bella, there would be no Saga, there would be no Edward, *Gasp*, but I digress.
Kristen showed up to the Teen Choice Awards looking absolutely stunning, and I thought, showed off just how beautiful she really is. Now, admittedly, I hated the skirt, and the heels, but that has no bearing on Kristen herself.
She could have shown up wearing jeans, a t-shirt, and chucks, she STILL would have looked amazing, because she’s a beautiful girl.
So, for those of you that think she isn’t, you’re entitled to your opinion, and you also have the right to remain silent.

Heart Stopping J-Action

Posted by WillowRaine on August 11, 2009 | 1 Comment

I have to say that this is the first year that I have EVER watched the Teen Choice Awards, and I also have to admit why… Jackson Rathbone.
He was enough to make me sit through an agonizing 2 hour television program. (Bear with me here, I just don’t get into everything else that the award show itself implies, plus I’m a rather boring person. I’d much rather read than watch television)
So, that speaks leaps and bounds of my adoration of this man.
If you’ll excuse me, I’ll just sit here in silence and enjoy the beauty that is Jackson Rathbone, I invite you to do the same, but keep your thoughts pure eh? I don’t share well.
