Hello Kitty by Avril Lavigne

Discussion in 'Entertainment and Technology' started by anthonythegamer, Apr 27, 2014.

  1. I'm sure a lot of you guys have seen this video. I've heard that it was deemed to be very racist with the emotionless, robotic background dancers.

    I don't think it was racist. Avril likes Japanese culture, but it's expressed in a very misguided way. There is more to Japan than sushi and Hello Kitty. Being the nasty-minded teenage, I ended up think about Hello Kitty in a porno. Just listen to the lyrics and it sounds like two horny teenagers planning to do.... you know.

    However, what do you guys think?

    The thing is her fan base is in Japan, and they like her music when it is like this.

    I used to love Avril before she started making songs like this, when Girlfriend came out is when I stopped listening to her new stuff which sucked because I thought she was awesome - but I guess people change :frowning2:

    According to her, this song is a way to profess her love about Helllo Kitty. My views on this says something different. Of course, I was laughing all the way through.

    The thing is her first couple of albums came out on a wave of "Don't bullies suck? Wouldn't it be great if we could just have fun and be ourselves" and then out of nowhere she literally became the stuck up bitch from skater boi...

    Did anyone notice when she said "someone chucked a cupcake at me" at least that what I think she said the mouth timing is horribly off?

    It's always the annoying/catchy songs that get stuck in your head and played a million times on the radio -_-

    I read someone say it's a genius tactic cuz now she's culturally relevant again like she was in the past.

    Yeah it seems like Avril has been fading away in the music industry. Even though this song doesn't show how well she can sing, at least it'll get people talking about her again.

    She was judge on Idol for one of the audition cities, and she wore a cat hoodie: http://www.thefablife.com/files/2010/01/avril.jpg So I wasn't surprised to see the song title, lol.

    This is not one of my favorite songs -_- I like Complicated, My Happy Ending, I'm With You, and Alice... pretty much her older stuff.
