Taeyang's Ringa Linga

The Korean Usher is finally back with his newly released single, Ringa Linga. It's a much different style than from his first album which is reflected by his attire. This flashy wild trend of fashion is fairly common with members of YG, which for my taste is great for music videos but for everyday style is just over the top and tacky. I like the clean cut and well dressed Taeyang from the Wedding Dress days better than present rope dread and ghetto street kid Taeyang. I think that's the peculiar thing about Kpop style, when they debut they are either dressed cute or well dressed in suit and tie but for their next album, they tend to go more urban or wild color patterns which seems fairly childish to me. I would expect as you grow then you should be more mature in your style and music because nothing is more creepy than old people trying to dress like teens.

In other news, being the shopaholic that I am for snow swag, I spotted a sale on thermal linings so I snagged up a few for my mom, sister and myself. I was going to buy a pair for my sister in law until I remembered I know nothing about her. I did not know her size or build so I decided to forgo a pair for her although it would of been a good article of clothing for her since this will be the first time she will experience a cold winter.

Esperanza Spalding Pwns Justin Bieber

Personally, I don't see what the big deal is because first of all, the award was for Best NEW Artist, hence the emphasis on the word new.  Bieber isn't exactly a new artist because he has been mainstream for a couple of years now.  Yes, Spalding isn't exactly known mainstream but she has been making waves in the underground music of jazz, so technically she is a new artist in the public's eye.  Although it's also not a surprise that Bieber didn't win because unlike other music award shows, the Grammy recognizes real talent and the art of music rather than a popularity contest.  Spalding may not be playing my kind of music but she certainly does know the art of music.  If you take away all the prepubescent kids which makes up practically all of Bieber's fanbase then he would certainly never have won any awards that requires voting.   I didn't watch the Grammy Awards but I saw a clip of it and I agree with Carson Daly, Usher cannot sing live anymore and neither can Bieber and Jaden was more like a mumble.  It felt like watching a kid's recital and having to pretend to like the performance because you don't want to be the jerk that boos someone's kid.

Delusioned Much?

I thought it was quite funny how Bieber fans tend to make up events that never happened or support Bieber's bad behaviors especially his potty mouth whereas they would jump on Cyrus' case like hungry vultures.  From down under, Bieber was a guest on a breakfast show and when a stage staffer directed where he would perform from he turned around and said "don't ever f***ing touch me again."  Of course everyone is shocked especially the stage staffer but Bieber's people told the host not to worry because this is how he talks to his people normally.  We always knew Bieber was a douche but check out the comments his fans left about the incident.  No where did it say the stage staffer touched his little girl body in an inappropriate manner and directing you where to go is what stage directors do.  His delusional fans are posting stuff such as he's a star and you're not allowed to touch him because he's money and puts money into your pockets, he's a teen so if he doesn't want to be touch then don't touch him and he doesn't need to be a good Disney role model, if someone touches you then call 911!  Really people?  So Bieber can be a horrible role model and everyone is happy with it whereas if Cyrus does something then she's a lowdown dirty scum of a celebrity?  Double standard people!  Sure, Cyrus made mistakes too but at least she knows how to treat a human being with a little thing called respect.  I always think it's funny how Bieber always shoots back on his Twitter even though we all know he doesn't give a hoot about what his mom has to say.  A Twitter defense attack is always a sign of being guilty.  I also heard the song by Usher and Bieber and Bieber literally killed the song because his voice isn't smooth.  I liked it when Usher sang his part but when it got to Bieber it just made me cringe.  Usher should of sang the song alone.
