Lily Has Opinions: Justin Bieber (obviously by Lily H.)

We all have opinions on something. Maybe they’re about that hilarious sitcom, or that disgusting meatloaf your mom makes. At the same time, people could have opinions about your opinions. Your grandpa, for example, could hate that annoying sitcom and love his daughter’s meatloaf. I am an extremely opinionated person, and it takes a lot to change my mind (a.k.a. I’m also extremely stubborn). And, as those of you with strong opinions know, it has its advantages and disadvantages. People with strong opinions tend to be persuasive, if they have good reasons to back up their statements. But, those who are strong in their statements and stubborn in their changes often get on the flow-goers’ nerves. It’s good to have opinions. You don’t want everyone to be the same. For example...I like to make fun of things, which has inspired this column. Different tastes and opinions boost your individuality. It’s good to be different than others, and it can showcase your style, sense of humor, and talents. But hey, you’re not reading this to hear my life lessons. You could be, I guess, but that would be kind of…boring, right? No offense. Just my opinion.
Anyway, this week’s topic is Justin Bieber. Yeah, yeah, I know you probably don’t want to hear about it. He’s so 2009, right? Well, too bad. We all know him, which makes it easier for you all to relate too. It’s not like I’m doing The Strokes. Who? Exactly. So Justin. I’m very opinionated about this guy. Made his big break on YouTube and now he’s a singer all over Kiss 108. Great for him. Now you don’t have to agree with me on this, but I really…I don’t like him, to put it nicely. I say this as "One Time" comes on the radio—and that’s just it. His voice is probably what bothers me most. It’s not that bad of a voice, just very nasal-y. High pitched. Personally I think he should wait until his voice is fully developed to start a singing career. Yeesh. And it’s not just that. Being the stubborn person I am, I refuse to believe celebraties are that amazing. They’re just like regular people, but more…fake. Some can be down-to-earth, really they can, but the nose jobs and the computerized music and all the takes before completing a scene bother me, I admit, more than it really should. So how does this all connect back to J.B.? Am I just rambling on and on about how much I loathe most celebs? Why, yes, I am. But I also have a point: as Justin Bieber’s career grows, I’m almost positive he’ll become one of…them. For now, I’ll put up with him…but you just wait. In two or three years, he could be the one getting a nose job.
Do you have an opinion on JB? Comment and share it!

  4. I disagree with all anti Justin Bieber haters. I am working on my rebuttle, Lily! I agree with Anonymous. Justin Bieber is very talented..it is a matter of opinion. But let's remember he didn't ask for this talent...it came upon him. He just hopped on the ride as it crossed him.
