Death by Icon

May 14, 2001 by PopGurls Admin

Yeah, so, I'm kind at a disadvantage here, because it's the next day. Because, well, you know. You're watching the video. The. Fucking. Video. The night before. And you suddenly forget to breathe. Like, really, truly, all of a sudden your body does not remember what it's supposed to do. Inhale? Exhale? What? And you're choking, and also (and you weren't sure this was … [Read more...] about Death by Icon

Icon: They've Created a Monster

March 14, 2001 by Amanda

So, I'm sort of having a crisis of faith, here. I just watched *NSYNC on MTV's "Icon" tribute to Janet Jackson. And it left me shaking and not quite weeping and completely out of control. This disturbs me to no end. It started out okay. Justin and Chris walk out. Justin looks vaguely cute, while Chris looks completely impish, and then Justin is not funny a whole bunch of … [Read more...] about Icon: They've Created a Monster

Icon: God Bless Janet Jackson Remakes

March 14, 2001 by Michelle

Can't you see my desire? No, and I think this is my problem. I can't. I've received numerous wordless phone calls and wordy emails on how hot The Boys are. How awesome the song is. How hot The Boys are. I've seen screen caps. I've laughed at JC's hair. I've marveled at the normality of their clothes. I've made a note of the fact that Justin wears that god-awful necklace in … [Read more...] about Icon: God Bless Janet Jackson Remakes

That’s the Way Love Goes, Again

March 14, 2001 by PopGurls All

Written by Melynee, Amanda MTVIcon: Janet Jackson brought us an unexpected treat – *NSYNC not only doing a fantastic cover, but putting their own spin on the video itself. The first viewing left most popgurls nearly incoherent, but after subsequent viewings (we lost count around 762), we felt that we could properly discuss "That's the Way Love Goes," boy-style. Melynee: Okay, … [Read more...] about That’s the Way Love Goes, Again

PopGurls for Thought

Yes, yes, Grease is by far the superior product. We’re not really going to argue with you on that one. But there is something so uplifting, something so toe-tappingly spectacular about a roomful of people way too old to be teenagers, playing teenagers, chasing each other around a classroom asking “Where does the pollen go?” that it can’t be ignored. -- Michelle
