It seems NME is run by school boys with adolescent crushes – they should be promoting artists not pandering to Moss mania, leave that to the hoards of fashion writers who bore women with their drooling adulation!

victoria and moss.
are beautiful

period..

Who is Beth? Perhaps someone who thought “this is how women get attention, be fat and have opinions only about what the beautiful people are doing wrong” that’s the way I see it anyway.

Who is Beth?
She’s the lead singer of a band who sound totally original. She’s an intelligent, interesting woman with something to say. And have you heard her voice?

As for “have opinions only about what the beautiful people are doing wrong”, perhaps you need to try reading the stuff behind the soundbites before! Maybe you’d find out about the work she’s done (and is doing) for civil rights, and about the things she wants to change in society.

Besides, all she’s said on this occassion is that Posh Spice sold out and became a hypocrite (not exactly news), and that Kate Moss shouldn’t be nominated for an NME award because she’s not a musician. I don’t see how that’s dissing anyone – just telling it like it is!

Of all the controversial things Beth Ditto’s said, this is probably the lamest duck to turn into a story!

but doesn’t she just get attention by being fat?

she’s right that kate moss shouldn’t be nominated for a music award but that’s not kate moss’ fault is it? NME is an awful magazine.

In the 70’s and early 80’s the NME used to be an awesome read, That was a time when there was a lot of good bands (with real musicians and songwriters who performed their own music, not a team of backing track singers and nightclub dancers who have a whole team to write a crappy pop song aimed at prepubescent girls, who only buy the record because they have a crush on one of the “band” members) worth writing about!!
