Dear Barbara Walters - last night was your Oscar special. Why the F*#@ were the Jonas Brothers on it
I appreciate that the Jonas Brothers are big (why I haven't a fucking clue) but they do not have anything to do with the Oscars. You had the host of the Oscar and 2 great nominees (Mickey Rourke and Anne Hathaway) - you should have stuck with just those three or found a 4th person connected with the Oscars to interview.

2. Those damn "purity" rings - what the hell is the big stink
After Britney's profession that she was a virgin for all those years (and wasn't), pretty much any Disney kid claiming virginity is a joke.

Anne Hathaway was smart - she got her name out there with a few Disney movies and then steered her career far far away from them. And now she's an Academy Award nomineee and on her way to being one of Hollywood's top actresses.

3. Those purity rings are the 00's version of the
Corey Haim/Corey Feldman anti drug ads of the 80s. Everyone knew that was bullshit even then.

7. Christina Aguilera and Shia LaBeauf did well, too.
Not that Shia has lived up to the early expectations as the next Tom Hanks/Dustin Hoffman, but he hasn't gone Lohan yet, either. If he's quit fooling around with the blockbusters and develop his skill a bit more, he could do better.

Remember Bosom Buddies? :D

11. If they're really not using their 15 minutes to get all the ass they can, they are fools.
I suppose that the rings might somehow be useful in doing just that.

15. "You're my first. Look, see the ring! I swear."
Yeah, the rings probably help.

6. They are kids meant to appeal to kids.
Why do people get so worked up over something that wasn't meant for them, anyway. Reminds me of the old parents when I was growing up who hated Rock. "It ain't music, it's the devil's music, that's just noise."

These children that you spit on as they try to change their world... You know the rest.

4. Barbara Walters
Edited on Mon Feb-23-09 09:26 AM by Drunken Girlfriend
Ya,I didn't find it too exciting when Nick Jonas
started talking about his Diabetes.lol

Mickey Rourke was surprisingly the most interesting interview
of the night,but he still seemed guarded,and you can tell he
still has an issue with his anger.

Rumor has it that Mickey Rourke was heavily into method acting,
and that he and Kim Basinger really did have sex on screen.

Anyways,hope Mickey appreciates his fame the second time around,
or his career will fall awful fast.

And what is up with Barbara Walters?

Her makeup,her wardrobe,she doesn't really dress age appropriate.

Barbara should just dress like the 100 yr old we all
know she is.lol

5. At least it wasn't Rush. I'll listen to the JoBros over Rush any day.
And I've never even listened to the JoBros, but they can't be worse.

8. When the Jonas Brothers are still cranking out records like Rush has been for 25+ years...
THEN you have the right to compare the Jonas Brothers to Rush. Until then the Jonas Brothers aren't even worth to clean the crud off the bottom of the shoes worn by Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart

10. They've never cranked out records as sucky as Rush, so why would they in 25 years?
