The Death of the Musical Moron Twins - Aug 02, 2004
Pretty Girls Make Graves are carrying my lovechildren. Verbena's "Souls for Sale" is the best rock album you'll never hear. Sometimes Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful" makes me ferklemped, but not usually. Chris Cornell has one of the most irritating voices in rock. Despite what many critics would have you think, most bands don't sound like Radiohead at all. Franz Ferdinand lives up to the hype. I'm in an abusive relationship with Pitchforkmedia.com (we're always fighting, but I keep coming back).

We'd stand there and watch thousands of girls come through these gates. We found two."

Using it, subscribers can even download later-day modifications and enhancements to their user interface. For instance, one can even download a UI skin with images as icons, instead of the drab standardized menu icons. So you could find yourself clicking on a small Christina Aguilera picture instead of an icon that says music videos. Or a Maria Sharapova icon for sports updates... And this is just one of the possibilities!

Spears' assimilation of and into hiphop has not been so broadly pronounced as Christina Aguilera's, whose very visible and actually innovative work with Redman (on "Dirrty") and Lil Kim (on "Can't Hold Us Down") is of a piece with her very own ongoing crusade to demonstrate her autonomy and preach a kind of self-empowerment to the masses of little girls who admire her so.

Review: Hoopla over Hilary Duff - Aug 02, 2004
"As a parent, it's fun to see girls get excited about Hilary," Cobb said. "She's a great role model. Her TV show has good values. It is funny and fun; it has good humor that parents can relate to. You don't see girls here dressed as risqué as Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera. I don't want my girls to grow up like that."

The Leading Men: Angel of Music - Aug 02, 2004
Rodriguez: I did covers with a rock band at xl, and it was awesome. I did everything from Christina Aguilera to Billy Joel to Cher. So I made a single ["Love Is Good"], and I’ve been looking forward to doing an album, but it’s been really saddening to see how many doors have been closed because of the gay thing.

Car culture: Ford returns to its roots - Jul 31, 2004
New-generation American Fords are not going to ape European or Japanese imports. That was a strategy about as successful as Britney, Jessica or Ms Aguilera pretending to be Piaf, Callas or Kirsten Flagstad. Instead, new American Fords are reclaiming territory which Audi and BMW never occupied, but which the Americans foolishly evacuated: the street.

Pop culture blamed for promoting graffiti - Aug 03, 2004
Christina Aguilera is among the pop culture figures blamed by a British anti-littering campaign for promoting graffiti as cool, it was reported Monday.

Keep British Tidy officials are trying to make people understand graffiti is a crime not art. But they claim the pop world makes their job difficult by glamorizing the urban scrawl, Sky News said.

It's impossible to turn on the TV these days without seeing an advert where graffiti is being used to make a product look 'edgy.' Then there are pop stars such as Christina Aguilera who fill their videos with graffiti images to convince you they're ...

The only "real" communication we had was my pointing to the posters on the wall
and identifying them as "Michael Jackson", "Anastasia", "Christina Aguilera", and the few others I recognized. David was too concerned about the sharp scissors to attempt to communicate! We always wave to Buchi if we walk past his shop in the evening. It was 3 Euros well spent and I think David will need to go back soon for the "fall scrimmage" look before he returns home.

Christina Aguilera needs a police escort because she can't fathom "any delays due to traffic", and Britney Spears threatens a $5000 fine for incoming calls on her dressing-room phone. And who says that Guns N' Roses are white trash? What with their demands for fresh white bread and assortment of adult magazines? Of course, promoters will never tell an artist or fans if the show is underselling. The Beach Boys' contract stipulates no information be released to the media about ticket sales unless the show is a sell-out.

Peter Schrager's seven consecutive awkward run-ins with celebrities
I'm convinced everyone has these, because anytime I mention my streak to someone, they have 10 stories that top mine.

The streak is currently at seven and includes conversations with Bow Wow, Mark Price, Christina Aguilera, and John Grisham. Two encounters, though, take the cake.

Beware the apathetic; respect the critic - Jul 04, 2004
It may come as a revelation to many people, but musically speaking, there are a lot more artists out there than Linkin Park, Christina Aguilera and 50 Cent. This lack of variety can be attributed to the deregulation of media during the Reagan administration. On television, anything seen as politically controversial is no longer aired. That is why MTV is so reluctant to show some videos, such as Incubus "Megalomaniac" or Thursday's "War All the Time."
