Another reason to hate Entertainment Weekly

This weeks issue of Entertainment Weekly has a still from Britney Spears' VMA performance of the cover with the tag "Oh The Horror!". They have a four page spread dissecting everything about her fall from grace, the attending audience reaction, as well as the bad industry buzz about whether her career can recover. All with little arrows and sidebars. STOP IT! DON'T WE HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO WITH OUR TIME?!

They even go so far as to comment on how upsurd it is that everyone is taking so much time picking this whole thing apart...while they're doing that very same thing!!! Oh but wait, this is not a total bash fest, as it should and normally would be. In the end they start showing sympathy for her and go so far as to point out that her new album has some good songs...gosh! Golly gee! They're fun!

Fuck you, EW!

This, the magazine that always sucks you in with comments about movies, actors, music, and bands by saying something like 'we love those films so much' or 'these guys are a classic pop group we can't get enough of'. Then turn right around and finish by jabbing '...if you can get past the aweful CHEESE of it all' or '...you'll be bouncing along to those classical STUPID lyrics'. Why did I have a subscription to this magazine for 10 years?! They even sent me a 'we'd like to have you back' promotional letter saying I can get a whole year worth of EW for just $10! Yeah that's nice. Give it to some other guy or gal who loves having dump trucks of pretentiousness sucker punching them.

No thanks! Disclaimer: If you guys out there enjoy reading Entertainment Weekly, that's cool. I just can't take the ride anymore.

But hey, Chris Crocker, whose wildly popular "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!" video on YouTube, has gained him so much industry attention that he's in the works to get his own reality series. Which once again shows the far reaching power of YouTube. Now there's something I support!
