On Yahoo! today they were advertising Pinks new video for her song "stupid girls" and I wanted to see who had seen and it what y'all thought about it.

ANYWAY~~

I think its hilarious. but it says some things too. Its making un of all your Lindsay Lohans, Jessica Simpsons and Paris Hiltons. and It really says a lot about being a female in this society, while still poking fun of what we see in the media. I think its great. Discuss.


And someone tell me if I can link to it, because I will if I'm allowed to.

^I had the same idea about her video. It's one of my favorites...just because I hate those certain group of female celebrities.

[KissMe2408]

I haven't heard of it until now...

Yes you can link the video


I saw it, it's really good. I like it

oh, i saw it on Much today. :P It's pretty funny, i like it.

^Yeah... I don't exactly like Pink, but this video makes up for it.

That is not the point of the video. It is to expose who f**kin stupid our culture is. It doesn't matter if you like those celebrities or not.

thats very true. But it is pretty funny when you see the lyndsay lohan lookin chick run over those people. And the sex tape. But it does say a lot about our culture because these are the images we grow up with and we feel we are supposed to live up to. It sucks.

I didn't say that was the point of the video. I just liked it because it kind of makes fun of those girls....

[cLinT_wEStw0oD]

pink's hair isn't pink. wtf.

[Chii]

i don't like pink anymore. when the video premiered on trl and the host, damien, asked her who was specifically being mocked in the video pink kept saying she was attacking the "idea" of stupid girls and not actual celebrites.

what a load of sh*t. she mocked specific events. she could at least own up to it but she didn't. she said all this crap about women empowerment and how stupid girls don't have anything to say. it's kind of like umm pink, how is this empowering women when you're making fun of your peers like that?

if pink has something meaningful to say, then she should really say it instead of using other celebritys' mishaps to get press and publicity. if she said "yeah i used lindsay lohan as an example and i believe she's a stupid girl because of etc etc" then maybe i wouldn't be so annoyed but i am because we all know she mocked them but for some reason she is denying it.

[KrunkMuzik]

That video is great! It shows what supposedly a girl's standards are supposed to be. How you have to look or act in order to get attention...it's not all 'bout money, clothing, and all those other things.

[yo pusha]

saw this on mtv news.. damn window politicians... like nas said.. i guess its trendy to be a conscious emcee (or artist)

[angelrevelation]

the bulimic part makes me nervous/queasy lol

it's a good message. and the jessica simpson boots part was funny. but i mean, just cuz a girl plays with dolls (at the end, the options) doesn't mean she's gonna turn into a bimbo

yea but it would probably create unnecessary drama. we all KNOW whose she's making fun of in the video, what's the point of saying it and creating more fuss? it'd probably be bolded in all articles.. "YEAH... I THINK LINDSAY LOHAN IS A STUPID GIRL..."

edit

wait who is that girl next to 50 cent supposed to be?

I think looks like Gwen Stefanie. But I don't think shes been in a video with 50 cent. If she had bigger hair I would think it was Beyonce and Jay-z in the Crazy in Love Video. I love beyonce but I hated that part. But I don't think so.

And I'm going to have to agree, it pokes fun at these girls and what they do, but I think it would have gone too far to say yeah I think so and so is stupid. They just do stupid things some times and the video says more than enough for that.

[Gerifan04]

pink's hair isn't pink. wtf.

It hasn't been pink for ages. She just kept the name cause it would've been stupid to change her name to each colour of hair.

But in acctuality thats not even why she was called pink. Pink is always tied in with "girly girls" so it was her brother(i think) who started called her that as a nickname cause she's so not a girly girl.

Anyways,

I just made a post about this video on another forum site. Its really great! Funny yet it has a message. Her parodies of Jessica Simpson and Paris Hilton were great! The song itself though isn't all that good. Its okay but not as unique as her other stuff.

Well firstly, most people who watch TRL daily or other music channels are most likely going to know(or know somebody who does know) which girls she poking fun at. To state their names out loud would start bitchy drama and she doesn't want that. She's just using these massive public figures to get accross her message with proof. People respond more to facts than fantasy. But she did this all in a light-hearted way. Its almost like watching something on MadTV.

[Nugget]

I love it.

[lilliannnn]

It kind of irks me because those girls aren't necessarily stupid intelligently, or by the things they do.. Mary Kate Olsen? No. Lindsay Lohan? So she got in a car crash, she's not stupid. Paris Hilton? Sex tape. Get over it. Jessica Simpson? Hasn't it been stated that the "dumb blonde" persona she put on for Newlyweds was simply that? A persona?

All of those girls are more famous than Pink. I think she's just jealous.

Anyone who does a remake(I like to call it a crime) like the one Jessica Simpson did for "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" in my humble opinion is by far *the* dumbest blonde. This coming from someone who is a natural blonde, I know my people! lol

As for Paris Hilton, someone who can't give themselves a more popular phrase than the ages old "that's hot" is not going to Harvard Law.

Lindsay Lohan and Mary Kate Olsen was in reference to their "drug use"/"bulimia". Its never been proven exactly which they did but regardless. I think Pink is saying either one is being a "Stupid Girl".

[Keiras Girl]

I only saw part of this video and heard part of the song, but the part I saw sorta pissed me off. The way she was making fun of girls who starve themselves or make them throw up was disgusting. Girls who are anorexic or belemic aren't stupid, they have a psychological disorder, most likely caused by society. So if anyone is "stupid", it's society for shoving the idea that "skinny = beautiful" down these young girls' throats.

I dislike Pink. She annoys me. It seems like she's like "HEY look at me! I'm a noncomformist and I'm going to BITCH ABOUT THINGS because maybe then people will think I'm cool!" Yeah. Pink ... can go screw herself.

[hookster]

^ maybe watch it all and it might sink in. Pink is not attacking anorexia or belemia- Just trying to demonstrate that fans will emulate what they see, and there can be pressure to be a cookie-cutter image of someone you admire.. As you said, it is a mere *poke* at society.

I do think the video concept is better then the song lyrics itself though.

um if those girls weren't stupid, they wouldn't be getting those disorders. If they were really smart, they would've had a mind of their own.

Call me closed-minded but... I'd rather not waste my time watching that video. From what I saw, it's just Pink begging for attention and I've got better things to do.. like... waste my time on myspace and message boards, yes yes

[hookster]

yes the MBs are always fun for debate :) myspace I never really *got*

To each their own I guess lol

[Keiras Girl]

oh god, i always get kicked off message boards for debating. the last one i got kicked off for debating gay marriage with this psychotically christian fundamentalist. and myspace is just... addictiong. lol. but i guess if you dont *get* it then you wouldnt *understand* lol.

[bebemomma]

ehh...the video's kinda dumb. the things she parodies aren't exactly stupid. lindsay lohan's accidents...well, lots of people have car accidents. I see them all time driving home from work. paris hilton's sex tape...uhh...lots of people make them and I wouldn't rule pink out as one of those people. jessica simpson's video...well, it was a video. you mocking her by doing the exact same thing...well doesn't that just make you a wet blonde strutting on a car? I personally don't like any of the girls she made fun of...but then I don't really care for pink either. but calling those girls out doesn't make her look any better than them.

[SexyStephy]

I'm not a big fan of Pink but I thought the video was pretty funny..

[shortiiex]

that video is hilariouss...i know there is paris, lindsay, and jessica
is that it?

[fainaru]

I think its hilarious.  but it says some things too.  Its making un of all your Lindsay Lohan

wait in which part of the video does it make fun of lindsay. i only got paris and jessica. hehehe. hope someone can tell me ^^

[synthase]

haha its cute in a way

[kantoaznboi]

i dont think the people against the video grasp wat her music video is about. the song is about how there is a lack of portrayal of strong, intelligent women in society. that young girls are being conditioned 2 follow the footsteps of celebrities such as paris hilton, lindsey lohan, etc.

i think this song says alot and gives a good message for girls 2 pursue something better for themselves.

[acid_high]

It's a good video but its sooo sad how true it is. The pretty girls who only care about the cars and make-up

[*islandgirl4eva*]

I was quite amused by that video. I love how Pink thinks. She's not afraid to be ballsy and get her point across.

[AngryBaby]

i saw that "making the video" thing too. haha pink is cool. i like her personality.

[vogue!]

Hahaha.
I was never really a fan of Pink, because she always scared me :P
But I have to admit that video & song was good. :]

[*ainami*]

I don't understand why we focus so much on all the girls who do choose the path of being like, for example, Lindsey Lohan or Jessica Simpson. Sure, there are girls like that, but let's put some focus on other girls, like Mia Hamm or Hilary Clinton, so girls can see what their role models should be.

I love the part when she says "I must be skinny!"
It's horrible that so many girls do that to themselves, but I can't help but laugh at this.
Hopefully this video makes girls realize how incredible insane they are for making themselves throw up for the sake of being skinny.

Some girls...just love yourself for who you are.

THANK YOU!

The point of the video is NOT to criticize the certain celebrities portrayed, it is to show girls that there are more things than money, clothes, being skinny, and sex.

[JumpforJoy]

It's a funny video. And not a bad song.

[Crich323]

I liked the video and it applies to our modern society today...
I hope Pink will gain some respect from this video.
& I hope some girls might change from a video like that...
The culture we live in is messed up.

[LuvsDogs387]

I liked the video too. Sends a good message to young girls who think they have to be "all that" to be popular and get boys attention. But the ironic thing is that girls are actually becoming more successful then boys in shool.

Ok, so I'm slow - but I just caught this video. Anyone who protests or gets remotely pissy about it needs to seriously have a drink, and settle down.

I'm not necessarily someone who buys Pink's music. Having said that, however, I've always appreciated her spirit and tenacity.

This is a great video. Period. And I don't think that the she is criticizing certain celebrities per se, but she is criticizing their actions.

[Retrogressive]

You should be at CB more you're pretty awesome.

//edit

On topic, I like Pink's video and her message. Though I think she should speak with actions too instead of JUST songs that can earn her money. But I don't really know what she does so, hrm. I got my PINK CD stolen one time. I never really got over it...

[x3Death.By.Knife...]

haha, I LOVE her new video.
It's showing what our 'Idols' are supposively like..
I think it's her message saying 'don't act like someone else.. be your own person'
