One hit wonder?


She had that catchy tune about smiling when she makes a guy cry and that's it.

She had a few other hits, but she's another insufferable rich nepo kid (she even had an outburst about 'how unfair' it was to criticise neop babies like herself, who were in the arts, when 'other nepo babies, in banking and politics, are worse'). She's obviously one of those overly-sensitive, thin-skinned rich kids who resents being born with all the privileges, even though no-one would likely have heard of her if she hadn't.

Some years back my son got into a blazing row with her on social media about a comment she made on white male privilege. Ended up getting an apology from her.

reply

Really? Well, credit to her for apologising, I guess. Was it a sincere apology, do you think?

reply

Seemed to be. She retracted her blanket statement, admitted she'd over-generalised and said she was sorry for any hurt caused.

reply

TBF, that's very reasonable of her. I now retract some of my criticism of her.

She's clearly a hot-head, but at least she's decent enough to admit when she's wrong. I respect people who possess at least an iota of humility.

reply

She blames having kids on ruining her career.

"it's a wonder she's still alive"

I actually quite like a couple of her tunes. well not the tunes, but the way she sings them

reply

I like the way she sings as well. Was a very pretty girl when she started out. I haven't seen her recently.

reply

she sings with a very cockney accent. it's quite endearing. if she had anything else decent to say she could probably make some more decent songs

reply

Yeah she really didn't do much after the initial hype.
