JIGGUH WHAT?! DUMBLEDORES GAY?!?!

earlier this week, j.k rowling, the author of the beloved magical series "harry potter", told fans at a book signing that she believes that if dumbledore was an actual human being (no, hes not real, im sorry to break it to you guys), then he would be.....

homosexual!


now that rowling has helped dumbledore come out of the closet, its cause a heated debate. a lot of people think its a good thing that such a lovable character from such a popular book is gay, because it teaches children to be "tolerant". others who are homophobes think its a bad idea for obvious reasons.




i say its stupid. very very stupid.

i mean, hes a FICTIONAL CHARACTER! yea, some fictional characters ARE gay, but the authors at least make it known. rowling COULDVE potrayed him to be more flamboyant, but no.

and how do you explain homosexuality to a young child? between the birds and the bees and how magic isnt real?


i think its silly. im going to go on believing that my favortie dumbly is a straight man.


to be honest, i think now that the series of hp is over, shes only doing it for more fame.... i love rowling to death, but i dont know. shes famous enough, she doesnt need to get any more fame. i dont want to see her get ruined like *other* celebs.

"Blackout" - Britney Spears

Ah, yes, britneys popped out an album like it was her third child. her first in 4 years. and i believe its her best. its more club music than her typical "oh my god im so innocent" crap she used to put out. i think she's finally come to terms with the fact that shes grown up. you know how parents get about their youngest? they have a hard time accepting the fact that they arent little anymore? well, i think spears is the same way, except in some mind incest form. shes the child and the mommy. weird, yes, i know.
dont get me wrong, im head over heels in love with M(r)s. spearsalexanderferderline, and i absolutely ADORE this album, which is why im blogging about it, starting with track one (gimme more) to track 12 (why should i be sad). so, lets get started on tearing apart spears'the commando going, club hopping, bald artist's most anticipated album?
Gimme More
this song.... EVERYBODY knows THIS song! who cant resist spears saying "more" in different random voice changers? i would LOVE to be her, just so i can prove to everyone im not fake ALL the time.
okay, we all know im just kidding. words can't really describe this song. what i thought i loved about it was the fact that shes kinda showing that she accepts being in the spotlight, which is bitchen. but then i discovered her next song....
Piece Of Me
Hah, new favorite song right here! i can REALLY relate to this song. a lot. new myspace song right here. just take a sneaky peek at the lyrics:
I’m Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don’t matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
There still gon' be pictures of my derrière in the magazine
You want a piece of me?
You want a piece of me...
I’m Miss bad media karma
Another day another drama
Guess I can’t see no harm
In working and being a mama
And with a kid on my arm
I’m still an exceptionAnd you want a piece of me
I’m Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Oh my God that Britney’s Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Extra! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. she’s too big now she’s too thin
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. ‘You want a piece of me?’
Tryin’ and pissin’ me off
Well get in line with the paparazzi
Who’s flippin’ me off
Hopin’ I’ll resort to some havoc
And end up settlin’ in court
Now are you sure you want a piece of me?
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. ‘Most likely to get on the TV for strippin’ on the streets’
When getting the groceries, no, for real..Are you kidding me?
No wonder this panic in the industry I mean, please, do you want a piece of me?
I’m Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Oh my God that Britney’s Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Extra! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. she’s too big now she’s too thin
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don’t matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
There still gon' be pictures of my derrière in the magazine
You want a piece of me?
You want a piece, piece of me...
You want a piece of me?
I’m Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Oh my God that Britney’s Shameless
(You want a piece of me)I’m Mrs. Extra! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. she’s too big now she’s too thin
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Oh my God that Britney’s Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. Extra! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I’m Mrs. she’s too big now she’s too thin
(You want a piece of me)
Oh yeah
You want a piece of me
hah. i just adore these lyrics. shes finally putting her foot down and pretty much telling people to fuck off in her pop star way. britney, honey, you are far from innocent little popstar, although these lyrics are a step nin the right direction. the lyrics that stand out the most to me are the chorus. almost every girl feels this way at some point in her life. which is great.
and least we can be reassured that britney is still a role model to young girls, and shes still using her music as a way to connect. to be honest im thinking now shes aiming to those 12 year old skanks and teenagers.
Radar
hah. so im embedding this stream of the album on my myspace. i can absolutely relate to just about every song on this album, this one expecially. the beginning lyrics really stand out to me. gosh im such a silly little girl. this song is a very different beat. more upbeat uh.... beat. i guess. and yea. pretty much the songs to listen to are gimme more (which im sure youve heard by now), piece of me, and radar. lets continue our journey!
Break The Ice
alright, so im going to be making the song reviews shorter, im running out of time. i hate to admit it, this song isnt really my favorite, but the way britney sings her lyrics and the beat make me happy inside. Shes finally become a damn talented artist.
Heaven On Earth
AHHHHHH! BRITNEY FINALLY MADE A "TECHNO"-TRANCE (mostly trance) SONG!!!!!! YES!!!!
alright, so this songs cute. im in love with the beat. im not sure if i like the way her voice sounds. maybe itll grow on me. im not liking to voice overs. but, this is the bisexualness coming out, when shes whispers, its hott. like, really really hott. id go lesbian for her. just so she can whisper sweet nothings into my ear late at night.
Get Naked (I Got a Plan)
so i dont like this song. at all. the beginning guy sounds like hes de dah de. and im not a fan of the beat. it sounds liek a frankenstein mix of sexy back and gimme more. okay, im through with this song. ew. yuck. so i started liking the middle of the song. thats about it..... NEXT
Freakshow
so this song instilled some faith back into my little bitty brain. but not much. i like her voice in the song. and the beat. i love just about every beat in this damn album, seriously. but, heym maybe this next song will make me love the album again....
Toy Soldier
yea, my hopefulness was right. i adore this song. another must listen song. im not really sure how to explain this song. i just like it. it makes me happy to know i like britney spears. i love how these went to a ful page to a paragraph to a couple lines.
Hot Like Ice
i like this song. it seriously makes me want to dance like a maniac. crazily. even though her voice is a little bitty anoying. which is why it makes me want to dance like a complete idiot. man im getting tired of this.
Ooh Ooh Baby
i love this song. a lo. it reminds me of a rihanna song, or a song from the 70s. not sure what ones... but im pretty sure i love all three of these song conflicts!!!!
Perfect Lover
two words: love it! its perfect if youre in one of those lusty relationships. totally. yea okay. one more song. and then i can go to bed.
Why Should I Be Sad
dont like it. at all. dont even want to write about it. my least favorite song.
Bottom line: great album, songs to download: Gimme More, Piece of Me, Radar, Toy Soldier. even though i was skeptical at first, im a firm believer in her.
im off to watch chris crocker cry about britney spears.
