I want to know how writhing around on the floor/bed became the standard of sexiness. To me it looks less like, "I'm so sexy!" and more like "Help! I'm possessed by Satan!"
Jesus Christ, that's awful. As with all of her "songs", I feel dumber having listened to it.
This leads to a rant: Just because you happen to be a ridiculously beautiful woman does not mean you are immensely talented at singing, designing clothes, creating fragrances, and/or acting. I'm sorry. It just doesn't. She's succeeded in making a brand of herself and also millions of dollars, so she's a shrewd businesslady and that's awesome. I just think that producing utter crap like this is so unnecessary, you know? Like it's embarassing. Ah I don't know. I'm tired and grouchy.
@Aesop's Foibles. YES.: No I totally agree with you!! It's no longer about someone actually being TALENTED and really GOOD at one thing, they have to have their hands in every industry--music, acting, producing, designing clothes, fragrances.
@tinytm11: I'm also bitter, I admit. Like even if I happened to like something that was "designed" by a celebrity, I wouldn't buy it, simply because odds are they already have more than enough money and they don't need any of mine. I'm poor and sad, in case you couldn't tell:)
Martha Stewart was on the site this week, and she is someone who seems to have a firm hand in everything she does, and she wouldn't dream of putting her name on something that didn't live up to her ridiculous standards. I can't help but compare someone who has built their brand that way vs. a J-Lo whose business plan seems to be "what other shit can I slap my name on to make a buck?" Singing, dancing, acting, fragrance, fashion--I want to put quotation marks around each of these. I'm struggling to come up with something she's done REALLY WELL.
Still, she wouldn't be where she is without a market to support her. Not us, clearly!
I think I have an idea of where the "cookie" lines come from.
They're from Buffy! Season 7, episode 22 (the series finale, "Chosen") includes dialogue between Buffy and Angel in which she compares herself to cookie dough that isn't done baking. Perhaps J.Lola is saying that, unlike Buffy, she is done baking?
@BrutallyHonestBabes (aka Mrs. Sarah.of.a.Lesser.Hobbit): Gaga started it w/ "bluffin w/ my muffin" - but really, you're right, this cannot end well: T-Pain au Chocolate sings "Boulangerie of Love," or Justin Timberlake's "I Knead You (to Rise for Me)"
@PaintedTrollop: What's REALLY depressing is that I think Britney is more talented than JLO--singing, provocative videos. That's a really low bar to not be able to reach.

And if we're playing songs to pick up trannies, "Killer Queen" had damn well better be on that list
