Dumb, or Just Playing Dumb?
Here's a question that the world's greatest minds have yet to answer: are pop stars who appear to be dumb really that dumb, or are they just faking it? For instance, does Britney Spears really not know who Yoko Ono is, or is she just pretending not to know in order to cultivate her airhead image and generate free publicity? Nancy Snow, a professor at Cal State Fullerton, says it's all an act: "People at that level are always 'on' — they know what they're saying... it's kind of a sweetheart deal between them and the media. It really helps to feed the publicity machine." (via Sexy Pop Culture)

I don't know about that have you ever seen, Newly Weds, Jessica Simpson and Nick?
The girl is such a sweet thing but OMG is she an air head.

No, they really are that stupid. They truly are plastic automatons created by and for the vacuous pop recording industry. An industry that is simultaneously a reflection of and a molder of the simple minds that support it.
