The thing about being 18 was so incredibly stupid -- she was drinking alcohol in the house! On TV! It would have been one thing if if just hadn't come up again after that first day, but they kept talking about it! People on Big Brother are stupid.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Plus then she got engaged!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Hell, 18 year olds get married! <cough>
I think that's an interesting take on VE. There definitely were some issues with how they were treated (although I think for the record there's less homophobia on ABDC than SYTYCD) but overall I was pleased to see them on there and generally successful.

Oh I know, but it did make the lie harder to buy, and then she handled that whole thing so badly.

Shankdaddy as new permanent judge on sytycd! Thoughts? I'm hoping they still have guest judges as well, and am a bit worried that won't leave time for real commentary, but I like him lots, so ooh...

And the "takedown" coming from Lil Mama herself is interesting -- she seems so plugged into the ball scene and etc., I could almost see it as the kind of advice that could be appropriate in private, like, "Look, you know you have to be More Than, so you better make sure no one can call you out as a hissy-fit throwing diva."
