Is there
something big going on Tuesday? Oh yeah, its my birthday. Other than that, I
know of nothing else going on. If something was going on I would hope I would
have been called, or mailed or seen a commercial for it. Welcome to my denial.
In the spirit of the election on Tuesday, I am going to do my own Pop Culture
elections. Feel free to vote and comment. Like the election being held this
week, please be respectful of other's opinions. I know how heated it can get to
debate High School Musical 1 or High School Musical 2. Trust me I have been on both ends.
Let’s Get
Started…
Fonzie vs Potsie—I am voting for Potsie. I still have
a crazy crush on Anson Williams and loved it when he sang on the show. Sure
Fonzie was cool but Potsie knew how to take care of a girl. Boyfriend wore the
hell out of that letter sweater.
High School Musical 1 vs High School
Musical 2 – Well,
first of all I purposely took HSM 3 off the ballot. I feel like Disney diluted
the franchise by releasing it in theaters and not on the Disney channel. I could write 5 blog posts on how passionately
I feel about this subject. Anyhoo, my vote goes to HSM 2 just for the simple
reason that my Boo got to do a solo number on the golf course and get really
angsty and emotional. This was a close
vote for me because I really like the “Getcha Head in the Game” dance number in
HSM 1 but the introduction of Sharpay’s gave #2 the advantage.
Britney vs. Christina-- Remember when these 2 teen queens were duking
it out on the charts? My vote goes to Britney. Sure Xtina is the better singer
and I appreciate that she has real women curves but Britney is the best. She
has the drama, the crazy family and I was way invested into her teen romance
drama with JT. I also loved how she married random people but most of all she
gets my vote because she kissed Madonna and danced with a snake.
GMA vs. Today Show – This is a no brainer for me. I
have been a GMA girl from day one. I think I was the only girl in 8th
grade that had a crush on David Hartman.
I cried big tears when Joan Lunden left and vowed I would never love a
co-host again. Then I met Robin Roberts and was like Joan who? I don’t like Matt Lauer and never cared for
Bryant Gumbel. I never bought into the
America Sweetheart angle with Katie Couric.
Plus, GMA had Joel Siegel my movie critic hero (please don’t confuse him
with Roger Ebert my critic crush—not kidding.) How could you trust a review
from Gene Shalit? He has crazy hair and no fashion sense.
Tom Cruise vs. Dr. Tom Cruise – Remember the days when Dr. Tom
Cruise wasn’t crazy and didn’t pretend like he knew what was best for women
everywhere? My vote is for Top Gun, Jerry McGuire Tom Cruise. In my opinion he
lost his way when he divorced Nicole. She would never have allowed him to jump
on couches or openly proclaim his love for her.
I am confident that this will win by a landslide.
My lists
could go on and on. Feel free to let me know if you have any other scenarios.
