POPFITES! 13, 14, 15 and 16!

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Because I was too busy to do a POPFITE yesterday you get FOUR clashes today, to finish off the first round. In previous fites JARVIS won a convincing victory over CHRIS LOWE, and MICK JAGGER won out against HANK WILLIAMS.

As for today's fights, words cannot do them justice (i.e. I am starving and need to upload this and go get a sammich).


[Poll #780065]


TICK POWER!

I am abstaining from the last one because I genuinely cannot choose between them - very similar pros and cons...

hardest choice for me too! in the end kate is way too indie.

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

i picked Lydon but hard to say why (i prefer Kate's music)

[jauntyalan.livejournal.com]

i couldn't decide on the music, but Kate is a bit of a prima donna and a proper "artist", probably quite rockist i bet too. lydon is a (gobby, entertaining) tit = better pop star.

(hang on that makes Keith Allen a popstar too. even more of a tit tho)

Keith Allen vs Lily Allen would've been a funny contest

kate and keith would never go on I'M A CELEBRITY

Re: the decider

i think keith might've?

THIS IS NOT INDIE

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

but it isn't pop either: "RAJA RAGE -- Plot Outline: A group of six celebrities take to the roads of Mumbai to compete in a Grand Prix with a difference. Genre = Reality TV"

I am _pretty_ sure Kate was asked to appaer on IACGMOOH, but she turned them down.

lydon = dreadful shouty music with guitars = as not-pop as you get!!!!

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

He caused more of a RUCKUS!

[jeff-worrell.livejournal.com]

Ditto, but probably for different reasons.

I think K8 has rejected stardom so completely now that Lydon should get a walkover in theory. But while he's certainly a celebrity, it doesn't feel right to me to say that Lydon is a pop star.
