Blind Item #4

This awards organization was pressured into using the singer of the moment for their show so people could see how great she is. No one thinks she is great. She was manufactured and sold as someone great and won't be anywhere this time next year.

Billie Eilish and the Oscars

Lizzo-she sucks!

Brayson87 said...

Billie Eilish wasn't manufactured.

See what selling your soul gets you...

lizzo.

SeijnSei said...

Billie Eilish. Down to awarding her the Bond theme she doesn't deserve. It will NOT bring young fans to the franchise,. #fail

Thot Crimes said...

+1 on the Lizzo... she talented, but her music is so pop-bland blah it can't possibly have any staying power.

+1 MyDog. Sounds like an Oscar move

CBGB said...

Lizzo was HARDLY manufactured. I live in Minneapolis. She has been working so incredibly hard, even right in this city, for so many years.

gauloise said...

BIllie has a great look and she rides off that, but her music is kind of boring/over produced and I cant see it holding up.

Lizzo does have talent and personality and she makes good silly pop songs.

Guesser said...

Billie Eilish is Enty's new whipping girl. Overhyped,sure, but still a legit talent.

Angela said...

Enty, for the record, how much does the person who has a grudge against Billie Eilish is paying you?

Brayson87 said...

Everybody loves Billie Eilish, who could hate her?

V said...

Maybe I'm just getting old but Bille Eilish annoys the hell out of me. Damn kids these days and their music that I don't understand...

Anonymous said...

I think there is about a 50/50 chance os seeing Billie or Lizzo at thr Grannys next year. Both are way overhyped and overrated. This could also have been the singer from Mexico who came out of nowhere.

Zebra Seasoning said...

Isn't Eilish one of Bieber's proteges?

Huckleberry said...

This could describe pretty much any pop music. I know everybody loves Billie Eyelash, and she may not be manufactured, but to me it just sounds like she gets a good beat going and starts whispering.

Brayson87 said...

@Zebra, Not likely, he'd need to fix himself first. No Billie has been around for more than a few years.

LaurenMaye said...

@MyDog, +1. Of course she is manufactured. They love those satanic overtones.

nyc gossip said...

Camila Cabello

Brayson87 said...

@nyc, Not a bad guess, she performed at the Grammys and was definitely manufactured:

Vita said...

Agree that this is about Billie Eilish singing at the Oscars. I do think she is likable and has talent, though. However, I'm unsure where her songwriting is without her brother.

the girl in question said...

how can someone hate lizzo her music is so full of joy and confidence!! billie eilish on the other hand....i find her style of music strange and faux edgy. her and her bro give me weird feelings.

longtimereader said...

Love the Lizzo and Billie albums, Demi on the other hand is a train wreck...

Amartel said...

Eilish.

MyDogSmiles said...

@LaurenMaye Without a doubt!

Clark Green said...

Eilish. Comes out of nowhere. Does album in her bedroom. Yet it has several top selling tracks. Satanic imagery everywhere. Talk of suicide. It's all set up for the tragic downfall.

This is Billie and the Oscars. I have no opinion on Billie Eilish - not my cup of tea, but I'm old so who cares. Lizzo is great though - and the fact that her pop songs are actually pop SONGS, will give her some staying power.

Mean Man said...

Rosalia. Her performance was boring crap. She even had her butt cheeks full out, uncovered, and she still sucked.

SkullChimpyCheese said...

===Does album in her bedroom

Grimes is still around

The satanic imagery just the thing to jibe with a clothing line for little kids.

That said, her look makes for a suitably little kid look as opposed to JUICY butt mini me streetwalker wear.

shakey said...

I agree with nycgossip as this being Camilla Cabello.

I would not be surprised in the least if Billie Eilish has been manufactured. Avril Lavigne was, and lots of people thought she was a breath of fresh air at the time.

AlleyKat said...

I love Lizzo. Catchy pop nothing wrong with that.

cc423 said...

Lizzo has ben paying her dues for a while now.

AListDiva said...

I'm not fully crazy about Billie but check out her singing I love you on SNL, its beautiful! I think her brother is probably behind most of her songs, but she's definitely not horrible!

defhermit said...

Billie Eilish is this year's Lorde. Remember what a big deal she was?

OKay said...

Jebus. Seems nobody here understands Billie Eilish AT ALL. And I don't get the Lizzo hype either, but she also appears to have genuine talent.

Brayson87 said...

It's funny that people keep bringing up the brother's songwriting when virtually no popular singer today writes their own music. Big deal her brother wrote a lot of the music, other singers are out there sucking old man d!ck or paying big money for new songs.

Florin said...

Here's a video of Lizzo from 6 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=He2xBiyqccQ If this is her, it took someone a long time to manufacture her.

LouiseBelcher said...

+1 CBGB

St. Paul girl here and I've seen Lizzo a bunch of times starting at the Triple Rock like 6-7 yrs ago. She is far from manufactured, she was living out of her car before she relocated to the Twin Cities.

Luna said...

ROSALINA-- why was she even performing? Who even knows who she is?? She will def not be known a year from now. The rest have proved their staying power.

idiot slayer said...

She sounds like every other millennial: Partially comatose and attemptimg to sing while drooling.

idiot slayer said...

You're not getting old, you just prefer your music to actually involve talented musicians.

Brayson87 said...

@Unknown, Wrong generation for her, but it's okay, millennials are used to getting blamed for everything anyway.

Murph said...

“The homeschooled L.A.-based prodigy, whose debut album of quirky pop was written with and produced by her brother Finneas O'Connell, is undoubtedly talented, but she's also been purpose-built for success in industry, discovered at 13 when her brother -- an actor on the show "Glee" -- helped her hire an A&R "packager," a publicist and a stylist to develop her unique persona. She was signed to a division of music giant Interscope Records by age 14, and by 15 had contributed a song to the soundtrack of the cult Netflix teen hit "13 Reasons Why."

In the 70's, the Grammys were about music. Sure, maybe the music was simple. "How Deep is your Love". "Just the Way You Are." "Evergreen". But, it was good music. It shared a message of love and light.
No secret symbolism. No dancers with horns.
Just music.

Anonymous said...

Not at all

Jeweled Skye said...

Billie Eilish's mom is an actress and screenwriter, her father's an actor and her song BAD GUY is THE song for the Oscar nominated film Bombshell.

Vita said...

Daryl-- Give me horn players who happen to dance, rather than dancers with horns, ANY DAY!🎺🎶

Brayson--I like Eilish and think she IS talented, Im not attacking her in comparison to her peers who pay for tracks, just saying I personally wouldn't be labelling her a prodigy/future star for the ages without knowing if she were the primary songwriter. I do have to say I'm a bit discouraged by this blind and the entry Murph cited.

Despite the social media and other non-musical overexposure, I think Lizzo is great. I enjoy melodic songs, and enjoy her voice and musical talents.

lisa matthews said...

Let's face it. Eyelash is the new Lorde. They're the baby geniuses who are gone after one album. Both were over produced and completely manufactured. Think it's a coincidence that both were lauded for their "quirky style", oddball dance moves, and they both "hit" at the same age?

furrowedbrow said...

Might be: Camilla Cabello (Sidenote: I don't understand the fascination with super-manufactured Lana del Rey either)


Is definitely not: Billie Eilish (talented af)

Unknown said...

Can someone explain what manufactured means, in relation to singers/celebrites? Thanks in advance.

Sophia S said...

How is Lizzo not called Fat Lizzo on this site, but MM is?
Not a MM fan or sticking up for her, but one is definitely fatter than the other, yet never made fun of?

Sd Auntie said...

Can understand Lizzo and better than cardi b. Manufactured for big gals?

Sd Auntie said...

Big gal would be more fitting . Agree with Rosalina. Never heard of her and why was she there? More appropriate for Latin grammys

es.ny said...

Billie Eillish... don't get the hype at all

Yaccub said...

Eilish is completely manufactured and it’s painfully obvious she’s been molested frequently and recently

Notyomommatoday said...

Lizzo for sure.. She will probably have a heart attack before next year. She is repulsive.

NicQuerica said...

Billie Eillish and her Depressed Girl schtick. Thing is, I like some of her music but it's not unlike the chillounge music I was listening to several years ago.

NicQuerica said...

100% truth.

NicQuerica said...

Annnnd with that, this blind is SOLVED.

NicQuerica said...

Where's Lorde now? I don't even hear anything about her these days and she was the IT Girl all last year.

HouellebecqGurl said...

I liked Billie Eilish better when she was Lorde and Fiona Apple, but I have no strong emotions one way or another.

Also, Lizzo is obviously morbidly obese. What's the point in addressing it? She'll either lose a crap ton of weight soon or head down Diabeetus Highway.
That's on her.
