Dude, you wanna check out some seriously asstacular fans? Go here.

I find this really disturbing. I mean, personally, I never liked Jessica Simpson. It was nothing against her as a person, really, she was just one more perfect blonde pop princess at a time when there was an endless wave of them, and none of them were really different enough or talented enough to justify the whole thing. Add to it the fact that she was classified as “Christian pop” — an evil evil wrong bad E-V-I-L category if ever there was one — and that rather bizarre post-sex change feel she had to her, and I just really wanted nothing to do with her.

But if you’re a fan, fucking be a fan. Does this mean you have to like everything they do? Hell, no. I adore u2. Edge is my fucking god and something about Bono’s voice can actually ease physical pain for me, but when POP came out, I wanted to cry and hide and set them on fire. Its a miserable album. Gloria fucking Estefan would be ashamed of that piece of cowflop, but I still loved them. Because I knew what they were capable of, what they had been and could be again, and so I shoved POP into my CD rack, never to be listened to again, and simply waited it out. But not once did I stop being a fan. Never did I think, “wow, Discotheque is a really balls song, so I’m going to just get rid of my u2 jacket.” And when the posters finally came down, it was only because I had others I wanted on the walls more. Am I their greatest fan? I sincerely doubt it. But I am a goddamn F-A-N and one artistic hiccup is not going to send me packing.

So why, if you love someone enough to start a site on them on the first place, would you abandon it, and them, just because they have one little song that wasn’t what you expected? Or because they grew up and realized that y’know, sometimes they want to show some leg, or a little cleavage, and that having religion doesn’t mean that you can’t appear in a men’s magazine looking sexy? Grow up. Jessica certainly did. And god help her, stuck with “fans” like you.
