Kelly Clarkson is me. She is kinda ugly but not too bad looking when she gets dressed up/makes up her face/gets photoshopped. She is not thin but not really chubs…just kind of normal. She sings about real problems and feelings that I have. Like, whatever happened to miss independent? It’s like, sometimes we feel we can take on the world but then we meet a guy and we just feel sooo needy. And then when he breaks up with us for being really naggy and overbearing, our lives just SUCK without him. But then we realize that since he’s been gone, we can finally breath for the first time.
I can really relate to Kelly’s newest song/video, i do not hook up, because sometimes it’s like, there are all these expectations that come with DATING. Like, that you have to have sex on the third date or else you’ll break up. But if you have sex on the first then you’re a slut and he won’t RESPECT YOU. I’m wondering how two dates can differentiate you from being a slut to a goddess because that’s really not that much time to get to know someone. Kelly takes it really SLOW and I admire her for that. Maybe she waits till marriage or at least until she is in a committed and loving relationship with a guy who is done dicking around. Here is a link to the video.
Sometimes I feel like Kelly. She is so uppie mid class and has so many expectations put on her by her family. All she wants to do is fuck “the help” on the table…but she can’t, it’s just a dream. She is singing about how she does not hook up, when all she wants to do is GET IT ON. In her head she has to take it slow to save her heart/emotional vulnerability but in her vagina/spirit she just wants to let go of all that shit and have a good time with the pool boy.
I DON’T HOOK UP—but I really want to. The harder you try, the more I fight. But really–it is a battle within myself that I struggle to “win” every day.
