So how was it, Ai?

It was amazing. The skirt wasn't high enough, though.

[GK Punk]

That's why I love you, Ai.

I love you too, buddy. <3

Heh. no wonder why she's gonna be rich. She's her own scalper. I can't call her or Disney stupid for this. it's an evil brilliance.

And I'm gonna have to sympathise with Buslady. There are people who have to work thankless jobs for little pay to barely afford to live, while some talentless robot lipsyncs to music she didn't even write, and makes a fortune because rich soccermoms don't want to upset their greedy, spoiled kids.

I can agree Miley is a better role model than half the others out there who are outright sluts and telling kids to dress up like prostitutes at age 5 (like the Bratz). But she still brings up 2 things I cannot stand to see. Thing number one, the whole ultra greed craze where everyone has to have the best of everything, and max out their credit cards to get it. Thing number 2, this whole idea that kids have to grow up sooner than they need to. Cartoons are too childish now? Yeah, I know that we've gotten to the point where half the kids shows suck, but come on. If actual cartoons are too childish, how can a bunch of live actors fumbling and bumbling about worse than a cartoon is all the more mature? And the worst part is the network execs who think likewise.

I told my mom about this thread and she said "Well, then, that's who you should marry" lol

I'm more thinking about teachers, who educate these people, but get paid peanuts. Oh, well. I personally don't care for Miley because she's every where, that's my beef, the over-exposer of Hannah Montana.

You seem to be the ONLY one here Jester who understood my point!!! (oops, after reading the rest of the posts, you too DrTooth!)

That is exactly what I was saying. People who have the lives of others in their hands, who are responsible for others, their safety, (law enforcement, fire, even us lowly school bus drivers have lives in our hands)etc get paid jack while performers get paid millions to act stupid on a stage.
On a side note:
Teachers don't get paid enough, sooo true!!!!!
I will say folks in the medical profession are at least EARNING that gazillion bucks they deserve. 'course, it always seemed mom (RN) wasn't making enough. *sigh*

man,i can't wait to see miley in agutter drunk and slurring "i'm hannah montanna!" in 20 years

Wow. Did I accidentally step into the "bitter loser" convention or what?

Not only do I love it when people hate something for being popular, but I love it even more when they say they get sick of how much exposure these things get, and the fact that they see it all the time is the "real" reason they hate it.

I have never seen one commercial, one paper ad, or one movie poster of anything Hannah Montana in my LIFE. The only thing I've ever seen is a Hannah Montana DS game at a Wal-Mart. You know why that is? Probably has a lot to do with the fact that I don't watch TV made for children, maybe some of you should try that? Half of you are in your mid-twenties or higher anyways. Maybe it's time to grow up. Or, crazy thought, maybe you should try doing something besides sitting around watching TV all day. You know outside? That scary place? It's usually not filled with ads for children's TV shows. And believe it or not, you don't HAVE to stare at ads for things that annoy you. Crazy, I know.

And lawl @ bus drivers have "lives in their hands". I should really tip the guy in my car pool for getting us to work everyday without killing us, I guess.

You probably also don't watch anything on ABC. Then you'd definatly see Hannnah Montana. Frak she was on Extreme Makeover Home Edition last night.

I don't hate her. Im sure she's a nice kid. I just don't like her music.

As for bus drivers. I've known some nice bus drivers. Like this school bus driver I had for years in Germany, Herr Becker. Sweetest guy in the world. Everyone knew him, even the parents. They DO have lives in their hands. They ARE responsible for those lives. This actually would apply for anybody who drives with other people in their vehicle. No you don't have to tip your car pool driver. Maybe you should be appreciative of him at least. Thank him every once in a while.

oh well. wish I could sing. or act. bet I could make a lot of money

Stryker and I were talking about this earlier. The reason actors and singers and people like that make alot of money is because not everyone is that good at it. If everyone in the world could sing and people would love it, then singers wouldn't make that much money. same with sports or actors or writers...etc.

No offense to the regular Joe on the beat protecting lives...but I could go join the police academy, fire academy, army, etc and probably have no trouble getting in. Like I told Stryker...even a high school drop out could do my job if someone showed them how to do it. It's not rocket science and I will never make big bucks doing it, but I'll be comfortable and have a roof and some food. But stuff like singing and acting well...that is not an every day thing. The harder it is to do something and do it well, the more it will pay. That's all there is to it.

She doesn't sing my preferred choice in music....but someone must love it if she's doing ok.

[Drtooth]

Sigh... why do I keep forgetting we're not supposed to show any opinions at all anymore, and just go with the crowd?

Seriously...

[愛]

If your opinions were backed up with any kind of logic, then it would be okay. But it just seems like a lot of people here just hate her because she has a talent for entertainment. Entertainment means money. Money means economy. We could really use that right now.

Seriously, if you're jealous because she's making a lot of money, then maybe you shouldn't have picked your line of work. If you really enjoyed what you do, you wouldn't even complain. It's never really about the money if you enjoyed what you do.

Ahem. Clearly you didn't bother to read my post that has a view other than "I hate her because she's popular."

I hate her because:

Disney's live action shows are causing Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon to move onto like minded programs for competition, all the while killing prospects of new animated programming. less animated programming, less animation jobs, more people I have to fight for to get a crappy internship.

That's logic beyond her music is terrible.

Not to mention the fact that people born into celebrity, leaving no room for up and coming talent kills the American dream.

[愛]

Well, to be fair, I don't normally read your posts, because most of them are just crying about cartoons. But I guess that's an okay reason to dislike her. A little technical, but reasonable.

My point still stands for the rest, though.

EDIT: Killing the American dream for shows like American Idol? I hardly believe three judges deciding whether someone is good at singing or not is worthy of a contract. However, I don't knock American Idol, because it's a good and original concept. Could use some updating, though.

[Mr. Snackpants]

Hannah Montana pwns. I don't have a problem with her. The only time I've ever been bombarded with Hannah Montana is at the movie theater. They have a big display with flat screens playing her DVD, selling her CD for $20. I kinda like the whole HM overload because I love watching people go crazy for her $hit and spend money they shouldn't be spending on their kids. It's hilarious. More power to her. I'd take advantage of everybody too.

My personal favorite was his post where he said something about not being able to get a job in animation even if he tried. Meaning, he complains about it, but doesn't go out and TRY.
