Did Britney and X-tina really need to kiss Madonna?

come on man madonna made a video over a decade ago with a black man supposed to be Jesus who she then ****ed, burning crosses and a hefty amount of blasphemous stuff.

kissing some damaged goods isn't that bad considering what shes done before.

It isn't that what she did is bad. It's because of the reason she did it. I look at it as a pathetic attempt to revive a sagging career, which I think is sad.

Unfortunately this is how the music industry works today. There are still older bands who are still around, based on their skills as musicians, but todays pop music is based mainly on looks and pulicity stunts.

true true
but what really anoys me is that these fat rich recordcompanies blame us for their 'crisis'
Is it a crisis if people don't buy tv casting show products or silicon dolls?
I say it's a good sign that people are still able to choose for themselves

From what I read in my local paper, Britney says it was Madonnas idea and she just went along with it.. But anyway, the whole reason for that kiss as far as I can see is publicity and going with the trends in the industry...

Am I the only one who gets annoyed by the way music is so fake and commercial nowadays.. Missy Elliot?? 50 cents??? it's all image driven disposable garbage made by mostly talentless, usually attractive people. They have it all laid out for them the minute they come off a popular soap opera or somehow get a record deal through their looks or by having some association to music. Then they somehow discover they have more musical talent than 99% of the world and through good marketing and flashy video clips, they dominate the charts, make millions out of it while good bands and people with real talent and a genuine passion for the art of creating good music, usually go by unnoticed. Bah!

Anyhoo, they (can't be stuffed typing their names) obviously realise that if they are seen as lesbians, they will see more records like that Tatu group who did so well recently. If it's cool to be that way and mindless young gi.... er people buy their albums because of it... then it just goes to show that in a few years, only gay and lesbian people will be in the charts or else they won't be "cool" enough.

they're mass produced and bring out poor music, but it's still good to see a fit bird going with someone!

I have to say that Madonna is looking pretty scary these days. Great body, but she has the face of a witch all of the sudden. What happened? There is a picture of her introducing herself to Eminem and he just looks scared.

I just saw "the kiss" today on MTV, they had some VMA special on. Can't really say I can see what all the fuss is about! The way everyone was talking about it I thought they were kissing for minutes on end. Looked quite innocent to me...
Justin didn't look too happy though!!
Oh.. and have now finally seen a snippet of Bon Jovi perform...

Tash

I only just saw the full thing myself, I found a nice little MPEG online:

Justin looked partially pissed off, and partially excited, lol.

Agree, I don't even see a tongue there...

Besides it was choreographed. I cannot make out any emotion on Justin's face. Sorry.
