I have posted Avril Lavigne once before but it’s been a long time and most of my thoughts on the whole thing can be found here.  I am only linking it because honestly my thoughts haven’t really changed.  Boxcar is playing through my head as I pick pictures of her.  People probably spent way too much time outraged by what was really the rise of hot topic.  There are so many discussions about authenticity and how the counter culture is always, always, always repackaged and sold back to us one day.  And how it’s never that authentic to begin with because it’s always a carefully crafted thing.  I also always remember this one interview once where someone confronted her about the punk criticisms to which she replied, “Fuck you, I never said I was punk”.  And when I read that I was like, “That’s a pretty punk response”.  But that’s why I linked the other one, I am not really here because of 2002.  I’m here because it’s 2016 and somehow she still keeps coming up.  I don’t mean that derisively, I mean that in the sense that like, I can’t think of anything she has done in a very long time that warrants a lot of fame but she seems to come up in conversation all the time.  Like her level of fame is way higher than it seems like it logically should be.  And I can’t figure out why.  I did find some info of a study that said she is the 6th most recognizable musician in the world and easily the most recognizable Canadian.  Which is insane.  I have no idea why.  Of course, it says something that I was about to make a joke and say, “What about famous Canadian X” and couldn’t think of anyone.  So my top theories are these: she and that whole burst of pop punk and hot topic kids in that 3 year period had a huge impact on people of a certain age.  Not me but like maybe 5 years younger than me.  So she was just so important to a bunch of people born in like 1984.  My second theory is some vast Canadian conspiracy.  I have read more than enough X-Men comics to know the Canadian government is evil to it’s core.  I am not sure which is likely so if anyone has some knowledge drop it on me, because whoever is doing this they are likely the reason why today I want to fuck Avril Lavigne

Another brief one today cause life is kicking me in the ass.  Sorry one person who likes when I ramble on, you’re out of luck.  I am posting Charli XCX because she performed at the LA Pride festival this weekend and I love what she wore.  I saw it and was like, “Man, that’s great, it looks like something out of some bad sci-fi movie from the 60’s”.  Then I realized I described Barbarella.  It would not have looked out of place in Barbarella and for a few of you, you know why that is a plus in my book.  So this just adds to the whole, I love it, everyone else I know won’t list of outfits worn by Charli XCX.  I like it though and so today I want to fuck Charli XCX.

So Charli XCX was at the new exhibit for the Royal Academy for the Arts (or is it of the arts?  It must be for, of wouldn’t make sense.  Either way, I’m not looking it up like some sort of nerd) and I loved the way she looked.  She posted pictures of the outfit on her social media a few days prior and I liked it then.  The pink eye shadow, the leopard print hat and pants, the shoes.  Even the denim top.  I loved it.  I also immediately was like, “Boy, the people who are really annoyed by my attraction to Charli XCX and hate how she dresses are not going to like this outfit”.  So here I am steering hard into that skid because I happen to like how she has a distinctive style.  I also kind of like tweaking people.  So I just went and grabbed a bunch of outfits those people will hate.  I thought she looked great.  I mean, I also happen to think she is a tremendous talent and charming but it’s basically common knowledge that I am scary smart.  So if you disagree you could be right but… well, I’d tell you to do the math but that would be cruel since I am so smart and I pretty heavily implying your some sort of mouth breathing troglodyte.  What can I say, I’m a dick.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.

I am going to go ahead and say Ariana Grande won the Billboard Music Awards last night because I thought she looked really pretty.  Also, almost no competition.  Not a ton of people there from what i have seen.  I will admit I haven’t researched it.  I didn’t watch it.  Music awards shows are by and large the worst.  That’s a lot of negativity I realize but i haven’t really slept well in over a week so you’ll have to forgive me.  I liked her dress, it was a good color, and interesting design.  So she’s here.  Today I want to fuck Ariana Grande.

So, I didn’t like, plan on posting Pixie Lott twice in one week.  I didn’t even wake up today going, you know what I should, do, I should get online and post the same British celebrity who is frankly almost unknown in my country twice in the same week.  I also don’t really like paparazzi shots, they seem intrusive and weird.  And yet here we are.  Because a bunch of pictures of Pixie Lott walking around showed up because that’s how England works, a photographed behind every bush and a crumpet on every table.  I assume on the second part, the first part is definitely true.  And I was looking and good lord Pixie Lott is just so pretty.  Like… it’s what I always say but I can’t help it, she is just so damn pretty.  It’s the first thing that crosses my mind anytime I see her.  So here she is, again, because today I want to fuck Pixie Lott.

Here is Pixie Lott because I have a thing for blonde British Girls.  Why is this a thing?  I dunno, maybe because they are so charming and desirable.  Usually I’d make a joke about the fault in logic I just committed there but I can’t remember the word because I am tired.  I have been trying to get my sleep right and somehow it’s just not working.  Stupid brain.  Well, here Pixie Lott is because she is very pretty and also blonde and British.  Today I want to fuck Pixie Lott.

Man, today got away from me.  It’s almost over.  Good news is it allowed me to not post until Ariana Grande’s pictures for Lipsy showed up so she is here.  She looked really good.  I mean, pretty girl wearing lots of pretty clothes?  I’m down.  I like Ariana Grande a lot and she hasn’t really shown up here a lot recently but that’s not her fault.  It’s mine.  Because… i dunno.  I usually can think of something funny there but… I can’t right now.  She’s really pretty and she’s adorable and she’s great.  So today I want to fuck Ariana Grande.

It was not the plan to post Charli XCX again so soon, well, let’s be honest, there is never a plan.  I don’t even know what I am going to say when I start typing much less who I am going to post before I decide to post.  But I wasn’t like, wow, I should spam the world with Charli XCX this week, it just sorta happened.  You can really blame @she-goes-to-eleven which proves what my grandma always said, “It’s always the Canadian with the blog full of pictures of nearly naked to naked girls that are to blame”.  It seemed odd at the time given blogs didn’t exist but is oddly prescient now.  Anyway, last night she started up a discussion about the Vroom Vroom video with me and it went on a while and using science we have decided it gets two thumbs up.  And it got me thinking about Charli XCX and I watched it again this morning and somehow that spun into me listening to more Prince and side note, still not ok about all that.  Anyway, Charli XCX looks ridiculously good in that video and so I couldn’t not post her.  I had to.  It’s basically the law.  Except for the part where it’s not the law.  But man she looks so good.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.

Growing up things weren’t great for me.  Actually, they were pretty terrible to be honest.  Life was unpleasant at best and music and books were my only refuge.  Many a day was spent hiding in my room with some shitty fantasy novel and the headphones on, my stereo turned up as loud as it could be so it would drown out the fighting downstairs, praying the anger didn’t spill upstairs.  I don’t know how I would have gotten through life without music and I luckily don’t have to know.  It did create a bond with people I will never meet though on a profound level as they were the only barrier I had between myself and realities children aren’t supposed to know about.  I am posting Charli XCX today but this is about Prince.  The news hit me hard yesterday because Prince was an artist of not only profound talent but he was larger than life.  He almost seemed unreal, that someone who was so aggressively odd could also be the coolest, sexiest person on Earth.  There was some comfort to that.  I was always drawn to people who could mix talent with personality to make them stand out.  Make them different so that maybe being apart from everyone else wasn’t a negative.  Prince was really important to me.  I have memoried tied up in Prince songs, be them good or bad.  He helped make things better when they were bad but he was always there.  Music was always there.  Christ, I had one of my first kisses ever after a couples skate while Diamonds and Pearls was playing.  Prince was there for all the major parts of my life and now he’s gone.  This is why people mourn celebrities, because their art was a major part of our life and we can’t help but care, it is a one way relationship but it can be an important one.  Charli XCX is here because she has a new video out today and she looked good in it but also similar to my relationship with Prince I find myself having to evangelize about her to people who don’t seem to get her.  I think she is extremely talented and I like that she also seems to do her own thing.  Also she is extremely attractive.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.

You can blame @she-goes-to-eleven for this post because she is the one who engaged me in conversation about Charli XCX.  2 days ago but still, she gets the blame since some of you are, for some reason, annoyed when I post Charli XCX.  Anyway, today is a good day for it because it’s a big music weekend.  Coachella is going on, today is Record Store Day, and the other day HBO released the Vinyl Soundtrack which has Charli XCX and Elvis Costello on it.  No, I don’t think she has anything to do with Coachella this year but who knows.  Record Store Day is mostly absent of her but I know she is on one of the albums that is a cover of an old classic album.  I think it’s the Bleachers one but I dunno.  This probably shouldn’t be your number one news source for this kind of thing.  Or anything.  Anyway, I love Charli XCX and I love talking about music, so it was nice ot have the chance to.  And here she is for today but i have to rush out the door so I guess I am ending here.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.
