Look I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but that mouthy bitch of singer from La Roux just takes the biscuit. There hasn't been a week in 2009 where she hasn't had 'something' to say its stupid.

She seems to think everyone suddenly cares what she thinks after 1 number #1 single, well they DON'T.

And if you think i'm being unreasonable here are (some) of the articles where she's had 'something' to say:

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...e-singers.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...criticism.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...-is-a-twt.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/xfactor/...-x-factor.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...overrated.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...lor-swift.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...ng-videos.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...tle-boots.html
http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/ne...ngless-rb.html

The list goes on and on and on.....

I thought i was the only one to notice this :sleep: She is always wingeing about something or somebody. She's only been around about 5 minutes but she's already talking as if she's been going a decade.

Miserable cow.

Not her again. She thinks she is better than everyone else and her music is just awful! She must be the only singer I know who sings badly to computer game music and think it is wonderful.

There is already two threads on this. Anyway, I find it amusing watching the angry posts accumulate. I think shes funny, don't mind her speaking her mind.

At least she has something to say unlike these pop stars that are closely managed by their PR who just grin and play the game. I like her music also

She just has a look on her face like she is always supressing a whinge.

Moany cow, who even cares what she actually thinks/says to get attention/be controversial.

I just read the stuff she has said and, again, It's just ridiculous. How she can slate anyone's voice off when she sounds like a set of car tyres screeching up the M6 is beyond me.

I disagree, I reckon she has a good ear for a pop tune and the ability to reinvent herself. We will see who is right in the years to come whilst I can't see Tinchy staying on top for that long

Can't stand either Tinchy or LaRoux... But trust me, I'll be right. She wont be able to cut it... If she is here this time next year with a number 1 album... Then I'll personally paypal you £10. And that's a promise... You can bring this thread up as evidence next year if you win. And I'm being serious.

Sitting at my laptop laughing at this statement... in uni at the moment and trying not to let others see me laughing but just can't help it

Me to.

Probably sings to the music from Super Mario or Sonic The Hedgehog or even the music from the original Pokemon games (which were great games btw)

The stuff about Little Boots makes me laugh. Little Boots has built up and continues to built her fanbase so by the time album no 2 comes she should have a solid following to be certain of success.

La Roux however are all but over now and are going to be remember purely as one hit wonders...

Not really sure how you can say they are 'all but over' when they have a sell out tour this year, and another next.

At least she speaks her mind.

I happen to agree with her. It's refreshing to see somebody with their own brain in the charts. Get rid of all this commercial rubbish where it all sounds like it came off of the same conveyer belt. Listening to most chart tracks I can hear the same keyboard preset or sample loop used time and time again. Technology has removed personality.

I'm still laughing at it! I posted in the other La Roux thread that she sounds like someone who has just sat on a cactus plant (or is sitting on a cactus plant while screaming badly out of tune to some computer game music)

The Lily Allen model of self promotion. Slag off anyone famous, it'll surely be reported on Digital Spy.

Little Boots is much better... at least she doesn't slag off anyone and she writes (or co-writes) most of her own songs. She also has a much better sound and voice than that foghorn La Roux.

I never said she wasn't allowed an opinion, but when someone is in the media nearly every week taking jibes at other artists and people and telling people what to think like she knows everything then yes I'm bound to have a strong opinion!
