I'm a Dirty Old Man: Emelee is Hot!
So I'm working out at the gym trying to lose a few pounds (okay maybe a few ten times) and I'm watching the music videos to keep my mind off the fact that it's only been 10 minutes on the elliptical and my body has produced enough liquid in that time frame to start my own swim club.... and I see this girl Emelee. Never heard of her. Do they still play videos on MTV? Teeny bop music. Hmmm. Kinda catchy. Dammit, that song is stuck in my head now! You don't know what you to do me, I'm so head over heels in love... heaven's what I feel with thee.... cuz I'm head over heels in love....
Thee? Thee? When is the last time you heard a pop star sing in Shakespearean form? Maybe she can work "Thou art some fool, I am loath to beat thee" (Cymbeline) into the next one. Okay, I can overlook the corny lyrics...
So I cruise on over to her web site and am shocked discover she hails from Detroit! Detroit! So now we've given you Bob Seger, Eminem, Kid Rock, and now Emelee. Yes, I know, I know... please accept our deepest apologies for Dave Coulier -- we're not perfect.
Emelee is the quintessential hot chick from every good teen-targeted, high school movie. Pleasantly surprised, I am. Plus, she's a blonde -- perhaps the last!!.
So, I'm obviously a dirty old man for thinking she's hot and liking her music. Then again, I was a dirty old man before I knew of her, so hey, no big deal.
Following her links to her MySpace, I started feeling old and out of touch. Sock garters and bifocals -- aisle 12 -- old. And from behind the remaining wisps of white hair, my cane fully extended, I say to you, cruel world... You don't know what you to do me, I'm so head over heels in love... heaven's what I feel with thee.... cuz I'm head over heels in love....

Dan - Thanks a lot. Before reading your blog this morning I was just an average Joe, wasting a little time before starting work. But now... I'm old. And not just old. It's the "dirty old". I added the Emelee link to my favorites under the title of "For Emergency Use Only". Hopefully my co-workers will have the common sense to click on this link when I'm complaining that my left arm going numb while clutching my chest. Screw calling 9-1-1. Just click the damn link. That'll get the ol' heart going again. It'll also remind me of just how old I really am. Ah, it doesn't really matter if the co-workers click the link; these words are already imbedded in my brain. Surely, my last breath will be whispering these immortal words: "You don't know what you to do me, I'm so head over heels in love... heaven's what I feel with thee.... cuz I'm head over heels in love...."

Sing on, brother, sing on. I'll pour you another drink....
I can think of worse things to hear in your head just before you go into the light...
like maybe Cher.
or Justin Guarini.

Dirty old man huh? Nice!
It is not that fact that you think she's hot. I think she’s hot. And it has nothing to do with liking her music. It’s the fact that you REALLY liked her video. That’s what makes you a dirty old man.
Does TSO know about all this?

Do we really need another Britney wanna-be?
Not to spilt hairs but she's actually from Toledo, which is close enough, but not quite. We have enough of an image problem without including Toledo as a part of the "metro area"

Toldeo, ick. Valid point, thanks.
Is every future teenage pop-star-to-be a "Britney-wanna-be"?
I think Britney herself was a wanna-be, and her idols were wanna-bes.
I dunno, I think it's wrong to write her off just because she's young, gorgeous, and sings and dances.
Of course, she IS from Toledo, so...

No, not every up and coming teenage singer/dancer is a "Britney wanna-be". I will admit that I made that judgement strictly by looks alone and I haven't listened to the song yet.
The idols of today's stars at least had some talent to go along with the skimpy outfits and I don't think sex was a strong of a selling point back then.
But that's just me and that comment made me both sound and feel really old!

I dunno, that's what they said about Madonna, Britney's idol.
And that's what they said about Marilyn Monroe, Madonna's idol.
Seems every generation feels the next generation coming up is a bunch of no-talent slackers who use whatever means (sex) as a basis for getting ahead.
