I like those pics. Cher is often too made up and looks too old and she might come to regret that, but nice pics.

I want a Dr Pepper now!

I just cannot see Katie getting through another week,
However not on topic now but Stacey.X, thank you for directing me to Taylor Swift, I love the new album and I wouldn't have listened to her but you went on so much I did and was glad I did too.

Aw that's good! I wish more people would give her music a try tbh.

Having read cursorily through this thread, as a fully heterosexual female, my overhwhelming emotion is that I'm glad I'm old. I'm glad I was jumping around my nearest festival ground when Suzi Quatro and Debbie Harry were challenged only by the sultry temptation that was Chrissie Hynde. Three women who epitomised what style was - to buck all trends and vomit upon all comercialisation; to wear what the ******* you wanted, immerse yourself in rock'n'roll and own your physicality and sexuality. When I was growing up, Madonna was embarrassingly conformist. I really wish the Katie and Cher fans would arm themselves with just a smidgen of context before they start to spout drivel. These are oft seen phenomena, the Katie's and Cher's of this world.

You have just spoken the biggest load of ****e i have ever heard

Congrats

[patsylimerick]

Novo, I won't quote, because there are far too many Katie pics assailing our retinas as it is. I just want to reciprocate as far as congratulations go - I've rarey seen such a trite, inarticulate and pointless riposte. Well done you!

I don't really get this?? there's nothing wrong with taking pride in your appearance, good for Cher and Katie I think!!! They aren't conforming to anything just having fun and being 16!!!

Of course you're right. There's nothing at all wrong with it. The point of the post, perhaps too subtly posited, is that they are being hailed as visions of originality. They really - really - are not; by any considered musical comparison. I've said before that the two girls themselves are hardly responsible for this drivel. It's mostly the judges, and in particular Tweedy and Cowell. I do despair, however, when younger fans who clearly have a narrow scope of reference fall for this lazy posturing.

tbh I don't even know who Debbie Harry and Suzie Quattro are but I'll google it now Patsy so I can see what you talking about...! are you a non-conformist then???? I thought Katie was quite brave wearing her strange eyelashes etc in Cheryl's house that time, I don't think she's at all a comformist, and seems to be having a lot of problems fitting in within the x-factor house... I mean there's a new story everyday!?

If I've introduced someone new to Debbie and Suzi, my work is done

[fruit_cake]

Debbie Harry is blondie??? I know who she is they don't seem very non-conformist though maybe they were in their day I suppose.

Debbie Harry


Susie Quattro


frankly, Cher and Katie look more unconventional to me

Oh thanks for the pics! Debbie isn't Blondie, she was the lead singer in a band called Blondie. And I never really said they were non-conformist or unconventional. Original was the word, I believe. They were and they are. I believe neither Cher nor Katie were, are or will ever be. But, hey, it's all a matter of personal taste.

mmmmm......salt'n'peppa, lisa lopes, that girl she copied from Youtube......I'm not the biggest rap fan in the world, but Cher makes me slightly nostalgic for the 1990s, right down to the badly drawn eyebrows and the harem pants......with the greatest of respect, she's only original if you're under 25.
