Who in the flaming fuck of all that is fucking fuck does this skanky fuck appeal to? Tell me.

Gee, a twenty-year-old who looks and acts likes a 50-year-old bitter, strung-out Vegas cocktail waitress.

Will my penis ever be hard again? Nope.

Thanks, bitch.

I quite like her. I think the video for “Don’t let me get me” is pretty good. The music’s nothing special, but I don’t think she’s a skank at all. It’s just a manufactured look.

I don’t mind her, really. I think **Francesca** ’s nailed it: it’s just another manufactured image. Trying to appeal through the dirty, sleazy look rather than the Britney etc clean and wholesome look.

I like her music. She’s got a great voice. I don’t know whether she’s a skank or not. I just listen to the CD.

So, I guess it’s me that she appeals to.

She’s not a skank.

Christina Aguilera, now that’s skanky.

But Pink is cool.

I’m with **Anthracite;** I happen to think she _is_ incredibly hot. 🙂

I think Pink is smokin’. She made me harder than chinese arithmetic in that otherwise crappy ‘Lady Marmalade’ video.

Not skanky, but not very hot. Try to find a non-publicity picture of her; she’s just ordinary looking.

I like Pink too.

O.K., which one of you did she turn down, Kang or Kodos?

Would you rather a 50-year-old bitter, strung out Vegas cocktail waitress who tries to look and acts like a twenty-year-old?

Pink isn’t my favorite singer, but the music she is handed is better than most of the crap the music industry pumps out, and her music is a lot better than the stuff they handed out to Britney Spears or Jennifer Lopez. More to the point, I’ll bet money that she would be a hell of a lot more fun to hang out with than Britney or Jennifer.

BTW, sorry to hear about your penis. Good luck with getting along without.

Finally! **Kang** , I feel your flacidity. Man, Pink just looks unwashed. I always imagine meeting her and offering her some hygeine products. And what the hell are those slightly discolored patches on the side of her face? Looks like warts to me. Ewww.

The hubby and I have a recurring argument about who’s hotter: Eve (heh heh) or Pink. Eve can kick my ass anytime. 😛  
BTW, I feel much the same about Gwen Stefani - yuck. I don’t want to her her armpits ANYMORE. Yuck. Stop that. And when all that oddly-colored spackle on her face, she’s got a complexion like Bryan Adams. Or an early 1900’s Kentucky miner - been shootin’ her coal too close, I reckon…

Actually, she writes her own music now. Her last album was written entirely by Pink with the help Linda Perry of 4 Non-Blondes fame. I’m not a big fan of her music (okay, I do like “Get This Party Started”…it’s _peppy_!) but I agree that it is far superior to pre-fab Britney pop.

Maybe someone can post a link to some of her skankier pictures so I can make my own judgment.

I was going to mention that several of my lesbian friends _really_ think she’s hot, but I see **Una** beat me to it.

Then I was going to mention the Linda Perry (the uber-dyke) link, but **Gundy** beat me to that.

Damn. I’ve got nothing to add now.

Oh wait, here’s something:

That and her 'tude is what is appealing about her for many folks.

She’s a skank and a wigger. Not a good combo.

Her hair is so short, I doubt it’s a wig, **FNRFR**.
