Heidi Montag Is A Media Whore

I love this vid.
Really, I don't live in the US, but I get MTV and I've seen The Hills and OMFG, I can't believe people actually see this. I mean I get the following appeals:
- Survivor (Basically the LOST plot but brought to real life)
- American Gladiator (the new one is junk, but the old one was awsome and a common man vs "strong" people or lthe classical Shadow of The Colossus deal )
- Deal or No Deal (Will he/she win it or not, a quick changing gamble)
- Big Brother (strange vouyerism fetiche)
- Dancing With The Stars (strange dance fetiche?)
... but The Hills? First of all how can people even believe it's unsripted? NO such lame or corny shit happens in real life. From what I've seen, she lives like with another blonde girl in some apartment like almost near the beach. IN WHAT WORLD IS THIS POSSIBLE?! Please tell me, really! I wanna go there, where girls that for the most part don't work can afford that type of property or yet alone pay for rent while her dirtbag boyfriend does absolutely nothing yet wants her to give "it" up for free. If she gives up and concedes, then that would lke downgrade her from a whore to a skank / V.D. sceptic tank.
Anywho, this just come back to my point of MTV and it's crappy productions.
Also, MAN! I really have somethings to regret as of today. I really regret not having known or at least followed more of Outkast in my middle school / high school years. SInce back then I really hated the world and lashed out in many ways because I basically taught most if not everyone but me where assholes, I would fight desrespect my elders, etc.... which those last points I regret nothing of but I do regret that for a long time I really heard no music at all. People would just like hear music and I never even talked about it because all I did was play videogames or just watch TV or study on down time. Literally I heard 50 In Da Club song like 6 months after it premiered and I went the next day to class and just started to talk how I hear a cool new singer that impressed me and they teased me since the song had been sounding on the radio for months and I knew nothing about it. I was so out of tune that I can clearly remember the first time I actually heard the radio for more then 5 minutes. It was a weekday (it felt like a Thursday), at night, in front of a "bodega" / chinese food kiosk and it was the day they premiered "It wasnt me" by Shaggy. That's how much of a moment it was for me to hear the radio with attention for the first time.
Going back to the Outkast deal, so during these day I heard the Ms. Jackson song and I liked it but I was so fed up with other things that I forgot about the duo and didn't take any intrest in them again until like 2005? I think... when the Hey Ya and "Shake it like a Polaroid picture" thing was in the style. Weird thing is that I lost continuity of their work again, specially since that album was like a double disc thing going on and that like got me confuesed because in the Hey Ya vid only Andre 3000 was in it and I taught that Outkast was over. Some months later I realised it was like some weird creativity aspect the duo had tried out. Later on I really got lost from Outkast when so much time had passed and I again taught they had broken up or something (maybe they have by now, I don't know) when Andre 3000 only appeared in movies... which is a move many music artists do and leave their music career unattended for a long while i.e. Will Smith.
Just a few hours ago while booting my PC up and having a Linux scare (that's a story for another blog), I heard on official page of The Young Turks (the political channel on Youtube that uploded the above vid) during the commercial break a song in the background and taught it was fresh and cool and just wanted to know who was singing it. I type the lyrics on Google and I go: "Fuck!"... it was "So Fresh, So Clean" by Outkast from their 2000 album Stankonia... which is also considered among the best albums of all time. I was like, man have I missed out on stuff and it came out during my middle school days! Man!
I guess I really don't have a punchline here. What I do want to advice is to not just center themselves on just one genre of music because you could really miss on stuff from other genres and try not to think that stuff is stupid or dumb before trying them out... don't go oh pop / reggae / metal is for dorks / emo / stoners, etc... beacause thats kinda how I felt about some music choices back in the days... I mean it wasn't something as extreme as being racist but I was kind of a dick and misjudged many things because I guess I was searching or lost at the time. I guess I'm still searching for something and walking that very long road but the difference now is that I stop to the sides to smell the flowers from time to time.
P.S.
I think it was Murat who wanted more song choices, so I'll try to screen shot my music folder or I don't know how to import my library but I put it up on my next blog for everyone to see it. If anyone can show me to how to print or translate my media library to Word I'll be thankful.
If you haven't already... go and check out "So Fresh, So Clean" by OutKast and listen to more of their work cause its pretty good.
Last, those who want to know more about the US political scene but with dashes of entertainment or "gossip" to lighten up such a heavy subject... go to http://www.youtube.com/user/TheYoungTurks channel and you loose nothing by looking. Its not the Daily Show but its more of a Bombcast / Podcast type of feel to it. Well thats how I feel it when watching the vids... you can actually just hear it and not watch the video part and still understand it, like a podcast. The channel has main clips from their like weird daily-ish 3 HOUR videocast on their official site. Don't worry they are not pro this and against that, they are liberal and call either Republican or Democrat sides on their bullshit, but as of lately you will hear kinda like they are piking on one side more *cough* Republican camp *cough* because the facts are really against McCain and his "MILF" of a vicepresident. Thank you David Jaffe.
Thats it. EJECT !!
