@ hudson morrigan...

so you're bragging about supposedly having enough sway to take part in the killing of a woman's cd, who can at least can sing (christina's 'bionic' album). yet you don't seem to be not a bit incensed over the totally talentless studio manisfestation that is now britney spears. she can't sing, dance or even give an interview without management screening.
but you the, great music critic, don't find an artistic problem with that, huh?

it just goes to show (if what you say is true about beatin' down 'bionic' sales)how 'bad publicity' can negatively affect the career of a 'good artist' and how 'good publicity' can positively affect a 'bad artist'!!!

you might think christina is overrated but at least her fans aren't getting punked like britney's! if you want to claim britney's career as "going strong" christina is smart enough to understand that it's only the mirage created by publicity that keeps britney afloat, not talent.
