Paris' new Album
 

Story on MSN

Ugg. I have never heard someone talk like that about their own voice, and I went to school with dozens of extremely talented singers. Even most professional singers don't say that kind of stuff. In fact, most people don't care for their own voices, no matter how good they are.

"I realized it is what I am most talented at"

Oh REALLLLYYYY?! Hmm...I had 2 thoughts when I read this statement.
1. You really don't have much talent then do you?

2. Are you sure that's what your MOST talented at? I swear I thought it was giving blowjobs and spreading crabs around.

I had those thoughts also.:)

she has crabs?

Reggae and Hip Hop?!?!?!

:eek:

I read that the name of her first single is "Stars Are Blind". Apparently, Stars Are Deaf as well if she thinks singing is her greatest talent.

:(

;)

I'll add that to the list of albums I won't be buying. :)

Anyone actually hear her sing? Maybe she isn't that bad.

If she has an excellent voice or an interesting sound, would those of you that are hostile reverse your opinions?

If Britney Spears suddenly learned to sing, I doubt she'd start selling albums. Certain stars have trashed themselves beyond repair, and Paris is one of them.

ooohhh yeah...and it is NOT pretty, lemme tell ya.

I have her song "Stars Are Blind" on my myspace (link in my sig) and I actually kinda like the song. It's like liking Ashlee Simpson, you know she's not perfect, but she's totally fun to listen to so ya do. Or you just talk crap forever and don't enjoy a "fun" song, but yeah I don't hate Paris' music at all (at least not this song).

there's a link on perezhilton.com where you can listen to the song too.

It's not terrible, but not really my kind of music. will probably get a decent amount of play on pop radio stations and clubs. IMHO it's at least easier to tolerate than ashlee.

Paris' singing sounds a little like Gwen Stefani. also obvious that there was a lot of technology put into the song...i'm curious what she sounds like without all the digital support.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

:D

I'm really surprised Rudey hasn't commented.

I heard 'Stars are Blind' on the radio this morning. She needs to stick to not eating and being a moron, or whatever it is that she does. :rolleyes:

Sinking her perfectly manicured claws into rich Greeks...I think that's her raison d'être.

here we go - an explanation of the technology required to transform Miss Hilton into a "singer" -

from foxnews.com:

What??? No "Blowjob World Tour"??:rolleyes:

Hah it's fine...just kinda bland.

And Ralph, stop hating on the Ashley.

-Rudey

It could still happen. It wouldn't be like she was the first singer to lip-sync all her songs on tour...though usually it's been done because of the intensive choreography the singer has to do.

"Paris Hilton" and "intense physical activity" don't belong anywhere near eachother in a sentance. Well, unless it's intense SEXUAL activity.

I haven't heard the entire song yet, but i've seen clips of the video. It makes me motion sick with all the zooming in and out and bouncing around.

The video has pretty much been torn apart by critics/reviewers . . .

The song is just kind of watered down and blah - it's a weird combination of LFO's "Summer Girls" and Len's "Steal My Sunshine" with some weird Blondie bass thrown in.

Like the song, hate the video. I see that I'm alone here but I actually like Paris. I can't loathe someone I've never met, but she doesn't seem as bad as people paint her out to be (save for a few choice moments). I watch The Simple Life on E! every darn week and can't help but notice how well-behaved and sweet she is. That's of course partially for our benefit, but compared to Nicole she's a relative angel!

I can hear the echo-effect that G8Ralphaxi's quoted article discusses. It's very obvious that the producers synthesized the hell out of that song.

I do admit that the song is catchy. I would never buy her album or download her song but it's not as bad as I thought it would be. Unfortunately for Paris, I can't see this song doing very well. Like someone else mentioned, her image is tarnished and even if she could sing like Celine, Christina or Mariah, her song would still be panned by critics.

Her song is the #1 requested song in NY right now and one of the top 5 in the country... and I said to say I like it, but I totally do. I'm not saying she's some great singer, but the song is entertaining and I like listening to it. :)

Maybe she's getting air play in NY because she lives there or something? And top 5 in the country accoring to what source? She's not even on the
chart on Billboard.

Still have NOT heard it on the radio here in Pittsburgh. And our main pop station is KISS, which has stations throughout the country.

I don't think it's too terribly horrible...but it's not something I would run out and go buy.

The video looks ridiculous by the way. I think some website called it a "4 minute CK commercial".. which sums it up very nicely

Not to be the huge music nerd, but the 'effect' the producers used is actually pretty ingenious - instead of simply 'cleaning' the sound with ProTools-style effects, they actually took all of her takes and layered them on top of each other, over and over again. By doing this, they 'deepened' the sound - the theory is that she's not a good singer, but she's close enough that she's just barely missing, so the imperfections come out in the wash through the layers.

It's interesting - but it also means anyone can do it w/ enough time in the studio, so prepare to see a shitload of these types of albums now . . .

I am in NC (Greenville at that), and I hear it...?

I saw the second half of the video for "Stars Are Blind" on MTV Hits this morning. My first thought was "Oh, Jessica Simpson has a new single out already?" Then I heard the chorus and realized who it was.

I'm guessing you've heard it on there by now...I did and almost drove off the road.

I don't know why they're playing this dreck when I haven't heard the Christina A. song on the radio ONCE.

I love the single 'Stars Are Blind'..I think it's very catchy...at first I thought it was either Gwen Stefani or Kylie Minogue.

Anyways, I'm guilty of downloading her CD..the curiosity gotten the best of me...and it really isnt that bad...but some of the lyrics are sickening to the stomach...like in the song with Fat Joe & Jadakiss...basically all she says is "Every Time I turn around the boys fighting over me...maybe because I'm so so so sexy..All the boys all the silly boys they wanna fight over me"..To be honest, I only liked 3 or 4 songs from her CD...the rest are ...ehhhhh...but at the same time, her album isnt that bad imo.
