so. today i crawled out from under my rock and gave Whitney's new material a chance. haven't worked up the nerve to peep the album, but I did view this new "Million Dollar Bill" video, that premiered recently.
and...no.
i'll pass. i'm sorry. can't. won't. too late to 'pologize.
i'm a whitney supporter, yes. i love a comeback. i love that a legend can go from mountain high to junkie low and back to the top of the charts. and as i explained earlier today, my concern was that she looks and did well. and, she did. the new CD produced her highest opening to date, and the praise and accolades are pouring in. she's good. so.....she won't be affected by my lack of concern. right?
still, no thanks.
mind you, this was the FIRST note of new material that i've heard. despite the reviews and commotion, i haven't heard anything. i'm sure the music is splendid, but i doubt it'll make its way onto my ipod with the rest of my illegal music.
i'll give it to her: the girl looks great in the new vid. shaking off the King of Crack Rocks has done wonders for her, by all accounts.
*applause*
but, viewing the video, her antics from :35-:55 were enough to make me hit that useful red ex in the corner.
her "dreamgirls"-esque shoulder shimmy + "singing" with her tongue out + her dramatized, poorly-lipped vibrato = the death of me.
girl, no.
keep it.
good luck otherwise, Nippy. i guess.

I been decided her new music ain't getting into my ears unless I randomly hear it. I'm sorry Nippy, but I'm not with the new and imp...new voice. :-/
Kudos to the comeback, though.
Forgot to mention, have you heard the original song they used for this? I think I liked that better.
I hate her album. But I LOVE Whitney. So i compromised and downloaded it for free. It was the least I could do.
