Wow - I actually made it through a whole Oprah episode without vomiting. She was on her best, most thoughtful behavior today.

And Pink was great - to the point without being a know-it-all or diva. I especially liked the anecdote she used about preparing for the show. She asked her friends to help her come up with positive non-"stupid" celebrities of her age group, and they could only come up with 3 off the top of their heads, without resorting to Google: Angelina Jolie, Reese Witherspoon, and Natalie Portman.

Thank you so much

You're a sweetie! I saved it this time. I hooked up the sterio speakers to one of our computers and it sounds awesome.

Well, I'd have to argue with her first choice but I see why she said it. The latter 2 I love. None of them are in the music biz.

I know, I'm thinkin', oh is that because she's trying to save all the children in the world? but at the same time I'm thinkin', that hoe, stole Brad from Jen and is now knocked up with his baby illegitimately. Yeah, real smart, quite a role model

RE: Angelina ^^

I'm not an Angelina fan per se, but at least she balances the crazy side with the thoughtful side.

Pink said the whole point about "Stupid Girls" wasn't about morality or conventional wisdom - it was about girls acting less smart to impress men (dumbing themselves down) and to appear less threatening mentally to get ahead, or to even get accepted in certain businesses. Also, she said the problem wasn't being sexy, it was that "smart and sexy are not oil and water..."

And she made a funny comment about the actual word - something like: "I'm a songwriter - I needed 2 syllables to fit the music, and that was the easiest way to get where I needed to go."

EDIT: And I also thought it was interesting that none of her three examples were in the music business. And come to think of it, I can't really name any singers that fit the bill (other than Pink), either. At least not mainstream ones...

^^^and Dr. Robin said, they're not really stupid girls, they're "lost" girls. Pink was probably thinking "damn, I should have called it "Lost Girls"

But that's only one syllable! Try again...

And yer welcome for the mp3. Glad you like the song, I did too.

Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Avril Lavigne come to mind
