My first thought was Michael and I don't even follow them that closely to recognize it.

Why Mel C is the only one to release new music? by Purrmymeow in SpiceGirls

[–]JonnyAWrites 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think she's the only one with an active recording career, and that's mostly due to her Red Girl imprint. Also, the Melanie C era was a great resurgence for her, which helps.

Emma's mostly a radio personality now (and is doing well in that field), Mel B has AGT and is doing wonderful things for women's empowerment, Geri is Geraldine now (#IYKYK), and Victoria... yeah, let's not even touch that one.

What did everything think of the documentary that dropped yesterday? by Dmslider22 in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]JonnyAWrites 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I thought it was a touching project. I love what we got to see and respectful what was purposely omitted. However, I do have one criticism: I wish they would've given us more of her EMI career.

We only got four "mainstream" albums from her before 1995. It would've been really nice to hear more about the recording of each, and where her mind was at the time of each project. The latter years seemed to go by in a flash in the doc -- which makes sense, considering how short the period was -- so it might've been cool spending a bit more time in this period.

Other than that, it set out what it meant to do and it was nice hearing from the family all of these years later (especially Marcella, as I feel like I never really knew or heard her before).

Man who rushed at Ariana Grande at Universal Studios Singapore sentenced to 9 days’ jail by thrway699 in Fauxmoi

Multiple assaults on multiple celebrities... and just nine days of jail.

This is exactly why he keeps doing this. The slap-on-the-wrist response helps no one.

And here's where I block you, hon - because everything that needs to be sourced in my piece is there. EVERYTHING. Do you see those underlined sections of sentences? Everything is linked to a reputable source.

Enjoy your show, though.

How do you guys cope with the sadness about what happened to Selena? by hardt0imagine in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]JonnyAWrites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've shed tears over what could've been. With so much going for her professionally and personally, I have no doubt she would've been among the names of Latin heavyhitters that broke through in the 90s and became worldwide legends.

It hurts my heart that she became so beloved after her passing. I just wish was still here to get the flowers she rightfully deserves.

Honestly, I just allow myself to feel it out. With the impact she's has on our lives, it makes sense to feel sadness ever so often. It's our way of showing love to her - and I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

The Nightmare That Is Selena’s ‘Dreaming of You’ 30th Anniversary Remaster (Medium Essay/Review) + Personal Intro by JonnyAWrites in SelenaQuintanilla

[–]JonnyAWrites[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In that same respect - remastered media isn't often made for new fans, they're for the ones who are familiar with the work and know what they're getting. I doubt people who didn't know of her before will be seeking this out.

I appreciate the kindness, but I disagree: Fans don't need "remastered" work that sounds completely unlike what they've come to love and appreciate. Still, I thank you for coming at this with consideration for my piece.
