[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Today's category is the slightly nebulous Act of the Year - six acts got more than one vote and we present them below: interesting to note the Poptimists heavyweights who didn't get multiple nominations.

Girls Aloud put out a Greatest Hits record.
Lily Allen MySpaced her way to stardom.
Justin Timberlake brought sexy back.
Paris Hilton was much talked about.
Aly and AJ were the salvation of teenpop.
Cassie stripped R&B down.

[Poll #899559]

Lifetime achievement and Track of the Year to follow!

Also, teenpop teenybop fan girls buying girls more than boys changes the relationship between fan and star (what they're being used for), though I won't say I know much about it. The success of the Spice Girls and Britney (and Madonna, way back when), even though they themselves didn't play "rock," helped make it allowable for Avril and Ashlee to rock.
