Pink's not dead. And she's not conforming either.
Witness her grimacing “I'm so glad that I'll never fit in" shtick on recent single ‘Stupid Girls’, which paradoxically farts into our ears like the dross any number of Shakirastacia automatons could muster. whingeing about pop stars in videos with 50 Cent, while recruiting anonymous rappers to grunt ‘come on’s. we might term ironic, but, like Alanis we'd be wrong; apparently it's parody. Unit shifting parody that is. " Cynical individuality as marketing tool smothers this album. from moaning about fame on ‘l Got Money Now’ to the title track, it's staggering that this is the same performer who gave us the pop classic ‘M!ssundaztood’. If the point of satire is to mimic your subject matter, Pink has succeeded. Unfortunately this latest effort sees her turn indistinguishable. She's not dead. but she is flatlining.
