Parakeet
When I was a wee young lad, my parents got me a pet. It was a parakeet. We named it Tweety Piccolo. It was really dumb. Anyway, Mariah Carey squawks like a parakeet. She reminds me of my little Tweety.
Ms. Carey (or, I'm sorry, "Mimi") was just nominated for eight Grammys. Huh? This is what's wrong with music these days. Her song, "We Belong Together," was nominated for Record of the Year AND Song of the Year. I don't know this song. Do you? All of her songs sound the same to me. They are all basically 4 minute breathalyzer exams put to music. Who voted for this crap?
If you like Mariah Carey, then you are most likely a 13-year-old gay boy or a heavy-set 16 year-old Hispanic girl. You know it's true. I don't know any other people that like her music as much as the young 'mo's and Latinas do. Luckily, we all eventually grow up.
I can appreciate how she made it "Through the Rain" and basically gave a big fuck you to the record company that bought her out of her contract. That's pretty funny. They pay her millions of dollars to get rid of her and she turns around, starts her own label and sells a bazillion copies of her latest cd. Good for her. But her music still sucks and is certainly not award worthy.
And why does she always have to act so slutty? I mean, it's cool she's all comfortable with her sexuality and whatnot but how 'bout some diversity. Do we really need to see her camel toe in every video? Even Madonna mixes it up and puts some pants on from time to time.
Fiona Apple got a nomination so maybe there is some hope.
On a separate note, I just saw Shakira on SNL. She's hot. If I were straight, she and I would have a conversation.

TJ: So why do YOU have to act so slutty? How come your bulge is always in my face? I mean, just once in a while you could mix it up and put on some really hot Carhartt work pants instead of that bulging jockstrap you keep shoving in my face.

Somebody's horny. You're right though; I am slutty. I'm like a Mariah Carey video whenever I go out. I'm always showing off my "manel" toe.

We had a parakeet when I was a kid. His name was Prekey. He sang better than that slut Mariah Carey and was only half the media whore that she is.
