Amy Whine-Who

I've been reading and hearing a lot about how Amy Winehouse is supposed to be this bad girl of the RnB music industry. People are talking about how she beat up an adoring fan...and her boyfriend after that. Or how she does cocaine on stage, being in rehab. Maybe it's just me but I think it's pathetic and lame.
First of all, let me be clear: I'm not attacking Amy - I'm sure she's talented or something. What's sad is how her management is handling things. Obviously all this hoopla is just a clever ploy by the recording company and her managers to upscale the dying modern RnB music scene by trying to appeal to a wider audience - namely the rock audience. And what's more pathetic is that the only people falling for it are 1) the shallow Usher-loving RnB crowd, and 2) the pretentious rocknroll wannabe's.
I'm not buying it, and neither should anyone.

Stupid Advertising For The Dumb Public

What's up with the billboards of Belo using Lucy Torres as the image model? I mean, am I the only one who thinks that Lucy was born with fair skin? Are people really that dumb? I'm not attacking Belo, just stupid marketing.

And while on the subject...we do have a lot of those in our shores. Fair skinned actresses endorsing whitening products...what the???!!! Is KC's hair really that silky? You mean to tell me that's just shampoo? (sinyampoo ku lang yan 'day). Are the advertisers willing to face public stoning and caning from the disenchanted public if they cannot prove that there were no hairdressers and video post-production tricks involved?
Maybe it's just me but I don't feel more energy at all drinking multivitamins everyday. I don't feel happier and most certainly not complete.
