Hilary Duff (music video, single, fan, Christina Aguilera, quote)

Hilary · 11-03-2008, 08:50 PM

Despite the recent change in music, style and everything, I'm still a 'fan' but rather disappointed.

The music is and has always been solid, the movies are basically hit or miss for me.

The image is going downhill and that's saddening because it's the route lots of popstars take and the smart ones decide to return to their roots after experimenting/testing the whorish route (see Christina Aguilera).

The sexy image is something I'm not a fan and wasn't honestly expecting. The music isn't much worse, like I said, but the music videos and movies are. I wish she would go back to the cute, innocent image most people liked her for.

Any opinions?

A musical blackhole

She has no "musical roots" to return to, and she has no control over any artistic development her music takes. Though being male as I am, I do prefer her newer image to her old one

Well, perhaps it was poor wording but I meant her earlier image/music more than anything.

The attempt to be sexy musically is just an attention whore kind of idea that isn't original which celebrities so sorely lack.

I don't know, I just don't like it.

But being a female pop star, getting almost-naked and whorish will earn you so much more money and fame than being innocent. "Innocent" will just earn you 8-14 year old girls.... "Sexy" will earn you all this plus older girls and women plus men of all ages.

Marketing in popular culture... it's just how it works.

Despite the fact that i do not like her singing, or her new single(particularly her new single...why Martin Gore approved this is beyond me?)

She is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Indeed, however there's more to it than that.
