Chanelle song is "sexy" and "feministic"

[atommickbrane.livejournal.com]

From Digital Spy:

Big Brother star Chanelle Hayes has claimed that her debut single is "sexy" and "feministic".

Hayes is recording the track as part of her new VH1 reality show Chanelle Wannabe Popstar.

Speaking at the Children's Champions Awards, Chanelle said "It's sexy for the boys and then feministic for the girls. It's really dead good. It's really exciting you'll love it, hopefully.

"Ben [Ofoedu from Phats and Small], who wrote the single, was really really good so I had a lot of support from people."

Previous Big Brother contestants who have recorded pop singles include twin sisters Sam and Amanda Marchant, Nadia Almada, Craig Phillips and Nichola Holt.

Discuss! Or er, discuss where on earth to BEGIN to discuss!

Apparently REBECCA LOOS now has a single out!

I can't wait to see what Chanelle's idea of 'feministic' is. I bet it won't be as feministic as Ashley Alexandra Dupré.

Well that's going to go straight down the toilet. Boom and furthermore boom.

The dude from Phats & Small wrote it - it might be good!

Hang on, was I asleep for 15 years? Have Phats & Small done anything worthwhile since 'Turn Around'?

NB Ben Ofoedu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Ofoedu) was neither Phats nor Small. He was the vocalist on 'Turn Around', has been in a group with Shane Lynch, and finished 5th in qualifying for Eurovision 2006, behind Kym Marsh and runaway winner Daz Sampson.

So no, it probably won't be good!

"It's sexy for the boys and then feministic for the girls"

It'd be amazing if the song was some sort of high-concept piece in two movements, the first "sexy for the boys" and full of bump-and-grinding sex-kitten coquettery, the second "feministic for the girls" and loaded with Xtina-esque shouty empowerment sloganeering.

It's going to be a reheated Holly Valance demo, isn't it.

Nah, it'll be set in a strip club, which obv is empowering for the wimmen and sexy for the boyz.

It will be a note-for-note remake of "Not Such An Innocent Girl"

Feministic = she is advertising a new brand of sanitary towel?

[piratemoggy.livejournal.com]

Haha, that's what it made me think, too.

I have no idea who this is, but perhaps she was afraid either to say "I will be strong, I will be invincible, and this will turn the boys on" or to say "I will be sexy for the boys and even sexier for the girls."

[piratemoggy.livejournal.com]

She probably just means it's a song about breaking your ex-boyfriend's stuff/face tbh. That's usually what that seems to mean these days.

In terms of backstory, she's a Big Brother contestant who wants to be Posh Spice (she has publicly voiced this as her ambition, this isn't just me being bitchy or something,) had sex on the show and then started some srs beef with one of the other contestants that led to the latter ending up in a neck brace after some people beat her up. The beef was, of course, over some slaggy bloke-contestant with a dodgy fringe who Chanelle announced she was getting married to immediately after they were both out of the house. Then that didn't happen, I don't think. She's on the cover of the gossip rags every week with some tearful 'OH NOES, I AM A TWO-BIT WHORE' story, which is the only reason I know any of this at all.

Oh and she takes her kit off for the more neanderthilic mens' magazines, I think. Then again, I really liked that Jennifer Ellison single in a sort of 'well that's crap but nevermind' way so maybe it will amazing.

OH IT'S CHANELLE NOT CHANTELLE!

I had totally not realised that. Botherd now. Er, not like I'd be that botherd about Chantelle.

[piratemoggy.livejournal.com]

Hahaha shurely yr affection for Paris does not run to her imitators? Although 1x amazing single from Chantelle would be an awesome kick in the Ordinary Boys' collective smarmy face.

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

haha no it doesn't, I don't really care about Chantelle either way.

[koganbot]

But you care about Ashley Alexandra Dupré (whose songs sound better the more I listen to them).
