Well, I've been here long enough. I think it's high time I've started my blog.

So, today, I'm going to talk about music and Disney.

As you all probably (and sadly) know Hannah Montana, the Jonas Brothers, and Demi Lovato and mega-stars such as them, and also know how popular they are, one has to think, "Wow. They are really sky-rocketing in terms of popularity and fans." Well, I have a question for you all: Are they really all that great?

See, most everyone now knows about these stars from Disney Channel, various concerts and the such. But honestly, Disney (in the past) has really been a place for little children to look up to; I mean, seriously, they had all these great role-models to look up to, and now, quite honestly, many of these so called "stars" can't even be trusted. You've probably heard of the three Disney stars that have posed au-natural for their lovers. Is that really how stars of a once great company should behave?! Before you know it, there will be a Disney magazine absolutely full of these pictures.

And that's not even the worst part, folks. These stars haven't even been fired for these. Now, I know what some of you might be saying: "Dude, seriously, these were meant for their bf's and gf's." Okay, I get it. But what happens when these photos are out on the loose and most everybody's looked at them at some point in their life? The answer: fans dwindle, meaning less support and money for Disney, and then Bob Iger's out of a job... not that it's such a bad thing.

Alright, now to music, which sorta ties in with the Disney spiel up above. Does anyone remember when music could make you think about life and enjoy it? When the songs were about important things in life, such as family, friends, and yes, even love. Nowadays, stars are singing about materialistic objects. There's even a Christmas song of which the story behind is that the singer received better presents than the person they're speaking to did. Whenever I hear that song, I'll quickly turn off my radio and be so angry the rest of the day. I don't remember Bon Jovi or Rick Springfield singing about getting a brand new Mustang GTO.

So, I hope this has opened up your eyes on the new age of superstars and music. Thanks for reading.

Hi Calob. Posting random thoughts that come to you is a great idea for blogging. Not only will you always have content to write about then, but there is also more of a chance it is original. I too have just gotten into the blogging features of this website and I hope you and I can help each other out regarding blogs. Now onto the topic being discussed.

I agree that Disney has really changed over the years. I really miss Disney's originals such as Beauty and the Beast, Snow White, Mickey Mouse. What ever happened to Disney's time of glory? I have not seen any huge hits from Disney ever since their great streak in the past. These actors and actresses posting those "in the buff" pictures is just plain sad. Even if the pictures are for their girlfriends or boyfriends, does it matter? They are underage actresses and should know by now that any pictures taken of them will find their way to the internet.

I believe these actors and actresses should be fired on the spot. I believe they would have a great career in the "XXX" industry, but are not fit to work for Disney. Disney needs to remember that their audience is children. Do they really want a child to type "Hannah Montana" in the google search and recieve half clothed pictures of her? I think not.
