Just so y'all are aware, NICKI asked for an extension till midnight tonight, and I - being the kind and understanding Headmaster I am - granted it. Entries will be posted tomorrow morning.
I know !Blue! and Marooner already mentioned it, but please say in here if English is not your primary language. I want to be sure the judges are aware when they're critiquing.

Rihanna has been very popular since 2007 and since then she has been releasing an album every year. I would personally love for her to take a break, and live her life a little. Along with those albums, she has had several #1 singles and very successful tours. She would take some time off to reflect and enjoy her success.

Blue Ivy gets a recording contract at the age of 3

LQ:
Can she even talk?  |
Quote:
HQ:
At 3 years old, Little Blue has not even had the chance to develop a sound for her to have earned a contract. Them even allowing her to have this contract at such a young age could even be taken as exploiting this young child. I feel as if that should give her a few years and wait till she is old enough to form her own opinions about what she wants to do with her life.

HQ:
I personally hate when parents love to find reasons for why their children act the way they do. It is not up to the public figures of today's time to shape and mold our future generation. If a parent feels as if something or someone is having a negative effect on their child, they should have no problem stating new rules and enforcing them.

A source to E! Online confirms that Beyonce and Jay Z's daughter Blue Ivy is getting her very own record deal at the extremely young age of three! The future pop princess is going to follow in her mother's footsteps and hopefully dominate the music industry; not much is known about the direction her music is going to take or even what her first single is going to be, but one thing is for sure - we're going to watching and waiting!

Gaga Wheelchair Bound
Quote:
Celeb News: Gaga wheelchair bound FOR LIFE!
Quote:
Earlier this year, Lady Gaga cancelled the remainder of her 'Born This Way Ball' tour due to an ongoing hip injury that she had been ignoring. Gaga had been ordered to stay in a wheelchair so the hip can heal without any pressure being put on it, but Gaga, always known to break the rules, has been seen out and about, and was even seen going into the dance studio for rehearsals.
Rumors surfaced online this week that Gaga's recovery efforts had gone south, and we're sad to say that we can confirm they are true; both Gaga's parents and her doctor confirm there is nothing more that can be done to help her, and she is now permanently wheelchair bound.
We hear Gaga is absolutely devastated by the news and is more concerned about her fans and her career than she is for herself.

Kesha sued
Quote:
Celeb News: Ke$ha sued; called "bad role model"
Quote:
'Crazy Kids' songstress Ke$ha has been sued by conservative parent group 'Millions of Moms' for being a poor influence for young girls. The group caused a lot of controversy for calling out J.C. Penney for hiring Ellen DeGeneres, an open lesbian, to be the spokeswoman for their brand.
We reached out to a spokesperson for the group, and here's what they had to say.
Quote:
|
We have filed a lawsuit against Ms. Kesha Sebert for her DISGUSTING behavior in the public eye. Many of her fans are underage children and when they listen to her songs about partying, or see pictures of her urinating on the street, it plants a wrong image in their head and tells them that what she is doing is okay. It's not, and she should be held accountable. We are confident that we will come out victorious in the end, and will be using the money we're awarded in the lawsuit to fund local churches and to further our efforts to make the world a better, safer place for the youth.
|
Paparazzi caught Ke$ha out and about the other day in Hollywood, and when asked about the suit she simply laughed, got into the car with her cat Mr. Peep$, and drove off.

This is completely dumb; why are they depending on artists to raise their children for them? If you as a parent set a good example for your children and explain to them what's appropriate, you shouldn't worry about who they're listening to or what they're seeing on TV. I don't see Millions of Moms coming out victorious in the end, as always.

It seems as though Bey and Jay are trying to give her some sort of head start in the industry...but 3 seems a little too young. They should wait a few years, she might not even want to follow in her parents' footsteps. She might want to do something else with her life.

This post is high quality because it shows thought was involved, there is correct spelling and grammar, and adds to the conversation. It quotes another comment but it builds upon what was said instead of simply commenting "this!" or "MTE".
Katy Perry announces her return to Christian music
A LOW-QUALITY POST
Quote:

She's is gonna flop so hard. Nobody uses her stupid Katy Hudson mixtape why the **** would she go back tothat. What an idiot tbh

This post is rude for no reason other than to be rude. It adds very little to the conversation and would be warned.
A HIGH-QUALITY POST
Quote:
What an unexpected, potentially catastrophic career move. Right at the peak of her popstar career, she switches back to making music for a Christian audience. Or perhaps that was her intention all along, to become a force large enough and then to release Christian music in order to convert her pop fans.
A significant portion of her fanbase is in jeopardy.

This comment is more articulate, spelled correctly, and makes a point in order to further the discussion.

We all just gotta wait, and see, maybe people will be here for different Katy. Only time will tell us.

Right? I mean who cares. We all knew that this is gonna happen eventually. It's so obvious, because her father is an owner of "Roc Nation". But I think, that Jay is doing an incredibly bad thing, does he want to ruin Blue's childhood, and her life? She's only 3, let her live her life. Also how will she be able to sing, can she even properly talk? I don't wanna sound rude, but this is a mess and Jay needs to stop this, before it started.

They release the song & it made a big impact on the music industry. The single debut #1 on the charts. Katy realized that she will continue to make Christian music
One night, Katy Perry went to a night club. She went and talked to this hot guy that she fell in love with. They started to talk and talked for a very long time. The lucky guy mentioned that he records great music, and he offered Katy to be on his song. Katy made the commitment to be on the song with him. They decided to meet up at a studio in Kansas. The following week they finally met each other at the studio. As Katy walking in the studio she sees a lot of crosses and angels hanging on the wall. In Katy’s head, she was thinking this guy must be into his religion. The lucky guy played the song in the studio. She says, “I love this type of music, what is it?” He replied with a smile on his face and says Christian music. Katy was shocked because she didn't like the feel of it when she was making it few years ago. Katy continued and did her verse to the song. The lucky guy released his new single. On the week of released, the single debut #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the best-selling Christian song ever. The lucky guy reported the exiting news to Katy and she went wild. It was Katy first #1 single on Billboard Hot 100. Katy made her mind up to stay with Christian music. She knew this time that it would make a major success in the music industry.
Mental fealth needs to receive more attention &I think Britney would b the best 1 for launching it. Britney knows that she will bring in alot of peopl People don't know what the causes are and how does it happen. I would recommend her to talking these thoughts through with the person who's is dealing with. It's is really are the customize tactility for concept.
There is hope nd a way to moveout n 2 the community; by using the foundation.
Here's the mission statement on the foundation website:
Quote:
The Born This Way Foundation was founded in 2011 to foster a more accepting society, where differences are embraced and individuality is celebrated. The Foundation is dedicated to creating a safe community that helps connect young people with the skills and opportunities they need to build a kinder, braver world.
We believe that everyone has the right to feel safe, to be empowered and to make a difference in the world. Together, we will move towards acceptance, bravery and love.

The BTWF bascially is a humanitarian organizaaion, &there's is not really anything else beyond that.
It will be a big influence and in fact from this, and hoping to make a better change for the people. She had recently had a meltdown herself. I think she should released it ASAP. The bottom line is if u r feeling down and feeling obvious. You should get in contact with the BTWF. I strongly believe that Briteny would bring in alot of people just because she had a recent meltdown herself.

It will be a big influence and impact from this, and hoping to make a better change for the people. The bottom line is if you are feeling down and feeling anxious. You should get in contact with the BTWF. I strongly believe that Britney would bring in more people just because she had a recent meltdown herself. Britney proved to the world that she overcome that issue, and feel ten times better than she was before.
Rihanna is releasing her 8th, 9th, and 10th album all together in a triple album format, all in one year? I think she needs some down time so her music will be better appreciated. I can't believe how pretty she was at the Grammys 2012. Rihanna looked smoking hot. I think she looked best in a black long dress. She always give perfection when she dresses up for the Grammys. Rihanna should spread her time with releasing three albums in one year. Rihanna shouldn't do this because her fans would be ready for more next year.
Rihanna is releasing her 8th, 9th, and 10th album all together in a triple album format. I think that she is over doing it. Rihanna gives her fans quantity and not quality. She just released an album last year. Why would she do this, not just to her fans but herself? She should wait for two years to do this. I just think she should have more time to prepare and not rush. Rihanna can make money without releasing ever album every year. For Rihanna to do this to her fans, I really think this is not a good idea. The whole idea of releasing 3 albums in a year is not going to cut it. |

Is good to know that Katy didn't forget where she started, this will be a refreshing phase after all the Pop music she released in the last years and maybe she will gain the respect of the conservative audience she lost during the Teenage Dream era. I'm not sure about how it is going to affect her sales but if she wants to do this then good for her!

Being a celebrity doesn't mean you are someone hungry for money and fame, they want to actually help people rather than pay someone else to do it.

Quote:
Millions of Moms overreacting as usual, there are worse "role models" out there like the cast of Jersey Shore but either way, celebrities and artists don't get paid to take care of someone else's kids so if those moms let their childrens emulate what they see on TV then it is no one else's fault but them.
If they are as good parents as they believe then they should stop letting the media educate their childs and start doing it themselves.

i thought she was truly passionate about her Pop music but i think it's admirable to give up your success to do the things you really love. 
But I hope that it was her decision and that she wasn't forced by her father since he seems to be rather unhappy about her life now.

How sick of Thiefyonce  ! What the **** is wrong with Bey ?
I love her but she needs to stop being so damn thirtsty for success.
First she used her backgroundsingers to gain success then she used Jay to stay relevant and now the bitch sucks the life out of Blue
i think the bleach got to her head
Bey needs to stop being such egoistic person and release some of her **** instead
HIGH QUALITY POST
I don't get why she is doing this?
I mean her and Jay have enough money, both are relevant and successful and Blue is way to young to do any kind of job like this.
Hopefully she doesn't force Blue to start a career too early.
But it makes me sick when parents think they can do whatever they want to do with their children. 
I love her but this makes it really obvious that she is only here for money and fame and i really can't condone such a behavior.

just because your fave is too lazy or scared to release some music doesn't mean you need to be pressed about anything the queen does
pathetic bunch
get some fresh air and leave this thread you obsessed hoes
HIGH QUALITY POST
I'm really happy that she gives us new music every year and I'm happy that she is so generous to us. It makes me proud to stan for her. 
But I'm still a bit concerned about her and her health.
She has been working steady for the past years and she rarely takes any breaks. 
But I hope she's okay and healthy
And the users here shouldn't be bothered by this. She releases the music for her fans to enjoy it and not to compete with anyone.
Side Note
It's funny to realize that i actually used to post things like my LQ posts.
But i'm happy that i started sounding more mature and less "ratchet" ot messy.  |

I think a big part of it comes from some people confusing a high quality and well thought out post with a "positive and nice post". I said you had to put time and effort into making your posts, but I never said you had to love everything. In fact, I purposely chose topics that I knew would be controversial to encourage the Charm Schoolers to put effort into forming their opinions, even when negative. I believe in being positive and nice, but I'm also realistic and know there are MANY posts I have on ATRL where I'm talking about something I don't like Rihanna. It's just about doing it in a way that stays classy and never ratchet.
