Selected by Albert Rodriguez, Lorelei Quenzer, Richard Kennedy, and Jessica Browning
SGN A&E Writers THE WORST OF 2006 (Random Order) 1. A Public Affair (album) - Jessica Simpson Tabloid queen Jessica Simpson is such an annoying human being that an album capturing her desperate attempt to actually sing is a joke within a joke. A comedy album of bloopers, such as the Dolly Parton classic she fucked up, would be better received. (A. Rodriguez) 2. SOS (single) - Rihanna It was fun the first couple of times, but it's now the most overplayed song of 2006. Does anyone else think Rihanna kinda looks like a Bratz doll? (R. Kennedy) 3. The Saints Are Coming (single) - U2 and Green Day An ill-advised pairing if ever there was one. Not too mention U2's 18 Singles package, of which the song is a part, leaves out much of the greatest and sticks mostly with the latest. (J. Browning) 4. Thanks for the Memory: The Great American Songbook Volume 4 (album)- Rod Stewart The liner notes to Thanks for the Money& er, I mean Memory read, in part, "&just think, this is only Volume IV!" I love off-key, unimaginative and unoriginal covers of classics as much as the next tone-deaf dweeb, but threats like this one leave me cold. (L. Quenzer) 5. Playing with Fire (album) - Kevin Federline Nothing is as cringe-worthy this year. I feel deeply embarrassed for him anytime I hear a cut from this disaster. (R. Kennedy) 6. Paris (album) - Paris Hilton It's sad when the most you can say about an album is "It sucked way less than I expected it to." Ironically, Paris' cover of Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" isn't as heinous as Stewart's own covers. (L. Quenzer) 7. Wind It Up (single) - Gwen Stefani Ugh. Gwen has lost every shred of credibility in my book. Goodbye So-Cal punk pop, hello mediocrity. (J. Browning) 8. The Dutchess (album) - Fergie Fergie, the female Pea, is unoriginal right down to her un-juicy botoxed face. On her first solo outing, she steals (not borrows) from a grocery list of artists she can only hope to match in skill when she finally grows up. (A. Rodriguez) 9. Down in Albion (album) - Babyshambles Shameful. Need I say more? (J. Browning) 10. 20 Y.O. (album) - Janet Jackson What happened to our girl? Too much abs, boobs and sex kitten act, not enough creativity. This was supposed to be a throwback to classic Janet, but it's just a bore. (R. Kennedy) |
