Aguilera's 15 minutes of fame is just about up.

Actually, the whole teen-slut era is about done. Watch Avril Lavigne if you don't believe it. Just like Nirvana came along as the antidote to the excesses of 1980s big-hair metal bands, Lavigne is providing the antidote to the teen sluts. Aguilera will be the last of them. She is already a laughingstock. She has jumped the shark.

You are probably right.

But everything sorta goes in cycles. Back in the mid to late 1980's, the popular women performers were like Madonna and Janet Jackson, who did dance music and played no instruments. Then, in the early 1990's, you had people like Cheryl Crow, Allanis Morrisette and Jewel who played more of a rock sound and played instruments. Then it kind of changed again in the lat 1990's to the dancing/no instrument types. The big bucks are only brought by a certain style for so long. Then, something "new" comes along, and then something else is eventually repackaged.

Musical trends are funny. The Ska trend(ick), punk trend, sensitive male trend, canadian band trend......

Avril, is excellent, not into the skater look myself, but she definately is doing it without becoming a 'ho'.

I don't care if she has a good voice or not. She is prostituting herself trying to morph like Madonna into what she thinks is every man's fantasy woman just to survive in the music business. Only Madonna, despite her minimal talent, is shrewd enough to know when the party's over.
When Mariah Carey first appeared on the scene, she was intriguing. She was attractive and incredibly talented. She, too, has become a second-rate diva who finds it necessary to flaunt it when all she has to do is simply sing to sell records...CD's (I'm aging myself.)
This gangsta craze is what turns teens on. So, I guess Aguilera still has a little mileage, but her time is limited unless she steps back and takes a good look in the mirror. Britney's already toast. And so is this Shakira who has one ability if she fails as a diva, she can sell hula hoops.
