Will Ellie from La Roux - STFU

I swear this girl is on a knife edge of success but I have been reading all the things she is saying about other bands etc and it is doing her no favours. I just don't understand why she doesn't just clamp it and just do her thing.

Is this some gimmick her slagging off everyone etc. She is not the one to comment she has been around for about five minutes. I am a fan (don't hurl bottles) but am liking the music better than the person. Has she not learned anything from other stars who slagged off other acts.

Considering she toured and remains good friends with Lily Allen she probably sees it as a positive step to staying relevant and in the news.

Given that the people she's being uncomplimentary about need bringing down a peg or two, I say: go Elly!

N-Dubz and Tinchy Stryder have nothing intelligent to say and have reduced British R&B to a new low. As far as I'm concerned, they had it coming ...

Ah that's the rub,

If Lily Allen is involved then she seems to have learned some lessons albeit the wrong ones.

i'm a big fan of La Roux's music, but Elly is one of the most unappealing people in the business. the way she slags off everyone else, as if she is perfect and she has a right to judge everyone else's music. it's not as if everyone likes her music - far from it. like the saying goes - people in glass houses... etc.

of course it's her opinions which she has a right to have, but she should learn to keep them to herself. stupid girl, it's like she wants to p*ss everyone off. she has a lot of haters anyway because of her voice, but by saying all the things she does she will just gain more of them. i'd put a lot of it down to inexperience.

N-Dubz gave her quite a bashing when asked about her at the mobo's the other night, it was funny to hear them getting so wound up!

In a recent interview she said ''I want people to come to my shows because they like my music, not because they fancy me. That would be a sh*t reason to come to my gig''

Firstly, I find it impossible to believe that ANYONE would go to her gig because they fancied her, she is absolutely minging and secondly, going to one of her gigs because someone did like her musc actually is a sh*t reason to go because her music is poop.

LOL, just say what you really mean why don't you.

I agree with both your points BTW.
(I prefer her mum, as long as she wears the uniform of course)

With pleasure She's so keen on slagging off other people that I'm sure she's used to it by now. Maybe that's why she is such a bitter trout, not exactly talented or good looking and I'm sure she's been told that more than a few times.

I'm a fan of La Roux's music but Elly's personality is nasty.

I like the music, but the artist. It's a good job that the music is my primary focus, because if it were the artist, there is no way I'd buy their music. We hear nothing of the bloke in the group, but hear too much from this woman. Everyone has an opinion, but not everyone wants to hear it, especially if it contains enormous amounts of hypocrisy.

DS seem to have a new quote from her every week. I just don't even bother reading the articles. They're probably took from the same interview or something anyway, who knows. I really just don't let it bother me, couldn't give a shit less about what her opinion on subject x, y or z is. I quite like La Roux though.

You can tell she's a newbie to the scene as they always slag off other artists. It's not the 'in thing' to do once you're a big star. When J-Lo became famous she was slagging everyone off and then quickly stopped. Cheryl Cole used to as well but also has stopped. Ellie Jackson will know soon enough. Keep your opinions to yourself.

She is almost as annoying and as tedious as her music is.

I was surprised when I first heard that there's another person in La Roux, and that it isn't just a stage name for Ellie as a solo artist. How could anyone possibly work with that utterly delusional and pitiful gobshite?

Haha, I laughed.

I wish she'd keep it all to herself. No one cares what she has to say anyway!

She just sounds like one of those cheesy, 80’s, disco-pop bands to me- I don’t understand the appeal.

I do find it funny she seems to have got herself a little ego all of a sudden though. She probably thinks she's incredibly relevant- she doesn't realise she's just as much of a fad as the people she is criticizing, if not, more so.

You only have to look at what happened to Jamelia to see where La Roux are going.
