I survived the shopping trip, came home and found I'd been asked by

_bettina_ to rant about people that don't like Chris, and you know I can do that in a very concise way.

People who don't like Chris are FRELLING INSANE!

However, I shall elaborate.

See I can't understand how anyone couldn't like him. The man is gorgeous, he's sex on legs, totally hot, breath takenly beautiful and if you can't see that you're obviously not looking hard enough. It's not hard, take a moment and look at him, look at his eyes. Tell me they're not beautiful. Tell me! You can't can you, and you know why? Because they are beautiful! In fact everything about him is beautiful, his face, his hair, his pointy ears, his lips, his goatee and man, don't get me started on people that don't like the horns or his old hair cuts because you know what? Who cares if they're different to the norm? What the fuck is normal anyway?

Which is another thing, and man this is the one thing guaranteed to set me off. He's put on weight. SO FUCKING WHAT! How dare people think that's a reason to dislike him? How dare they?! I'm spluttering with rage just thinking that anyone would chose to dislike him because of that. He's not perfect, no one is perfect. If you're an Nsync fan how can you sit and say that you don't like one of the members because he's fat? For one thing HE'S NOT FAT! For fuck's sake, he's heavier now than he was back then but all that does is make him real. He's not an artificial perfect popstar groomed to an inch of his life and made to tow the bullshit pr line. When I have the misfortune to wander somewhere where some idiotic wanker says they doesn't like Chris because he's fat I want to reach through the screen grab their stupid looking teenie head and beat it off the wall. Then do it again just for the sake of it.

Then there's the people who don't like him because he's childish and goes too far sometimes. For fucks sake. Do you really think that's all he is? The 'crazy one' the joker, a one dimensional cardboard cutout. Are you that stupid that you'll judge on an image shaped by pr spin? Look past the surface for once, see the man who cares deeply, the man who doesn't spend every moment of his life laughing and playing jokes. The man who works bloody hard to do something he loves. Go on look, except I know you won't. You'll just keep believing what you're told. Reading the same lies over and over again because you're too lazy to look past the image and stupid enough to believe what you're told. Admit it, you believe the Creation Myth don't you? You can probably even do the hand movements and diagram to accompany it. Loser.

More generally, people who don't like him because he's in a boyband. Get over yourselves. Chris can sing, he can sing beautifully and if all you haters can't see beyond the boyband label I pity you. I pity you because you're so afraid of being seen as uncool that you'll never know how talented he is.You can sit there listening to your indie music or whatever crap the so called cool kids listen to these days and mock him for being in a boyband but all you're doing is showing what a sad pathetic person you are. Someone who wouldn't know an independent thought even if it hit you in the head and yelled, 'hi, I'm an independent thought.

I could go on and on, but I'll sum up with this. If you don't like Chris you're clearly insane, and he's NOT FUCKING FAT!!!!!!!

PS, non ranty. Mouse, I have the stories and will upload when I've had my shower :)

The weight thing pisses me off so much.

There's no need to be rude and disrespectful and what gets me is these people are supposed to be Nsync fans, yet how can they be if they dislike one of the members because he's put on weight?

I right there with wanting to hurt people for doing it.

*bows*

Thank you.

LOL. You can disagree with me about the facial hair as much as you like, what I get pissed at is people saying he was stupid for having it, which is a totally different thing.

Like you say he's gorgeous at any time, and yes about the toys! It was such a wonderful thing to do.

Just wanted to pop over to say... Your icon? Rules. :-D

And he deserves every bit of that love.

What a wonderful man!

Man yes. He's so much more than a joker and it annoys me when people don't see that.

He's gorgeous!

Man yes, he was so skinny in the early days.

He really does look great now.

He really is beautiful!

People that say he's ugly piss me off, stupid people!

Thank you!

Like I said to CJ I very much doubt anything you could do would make me mad.

Every sparklikes should be liked because they're all wonderful in their own way.

You make it sound like I'm scary and I'm really not *g*

Wonderful rant! Made me laugh out loud and get all sappy thinking of our lovely Chris.

CHRIS!!!!!!! *hugs you for the Chris Rant*

LOVE THAT MAN.

HURRAH!

I respect anyone that has a lot of passion for any of the guys. Don't smack me, but I have teased Chris before about his fluctuating weight before. They've always been in jest, so, I never really ever thought that they were ever done in a mean-spirited way.

That's the thing though about celebrity. If you're in the public eye, there will always be people out there that will ridicule you for anything, and everything.

But these are all the things that make me like the guy so much more. He's not perfect and thank God! My love grew for him after his TX stint. I absolutely love his voice. He's so talented in many ways and you can just tell the guy has a good heart.

And let's not forget, I really, really, love Chris in some of my slash. Really.

Thank you!

He really is lovely *happy sigh*

Oh I totally don't mean people like you.

I've seen your comments about his weight and can tell it's exactly that, teasing and not mean. My rant came from seeing people who say how disgusting he is now because he's put on weight. How they dislike him because he's nothing but a joking idiot. Those people really annoy me and I want to smack them. However, all I do is surround myself with people I like and respect, that don't use his faults as a weapon to be cruel.

I'm not blind to the fact that he's put on weight,I also understand that being a celebrity means he's out there for anyone to take pot shots at. I understand that but I don't like it.

However, like I said I can tell the difference between teasing and meanness so no smacking from me and I really hope you didn't think I was targetting you.

But thank you for coming in and telling me what you like about him, that's always a good thing to see :)

Glad you liked!

I love Chris too!

I'm glad you enjoyed the rant, I meant every word.

Chris was my first *NSYNC love. :)
I hold him very near and dear to my heart. :)

Wow, I really couldn't agree with you more. I've always adored Chris, he's beautiful, charming, funny, incredibly talented and about a billion other things.

I can kinda relate this to another one of my favorite groups, namely Linkin Park. Joe Hahn (the DJ) has put on weight and people are saying they don't like him because of that. Why? I mean so what if Chris or Joe put on weight? They're still the same wonderful people they've always been.

Anyway, that rant was great and I wholeheartedly agree with you on everything. *nods*

Chris is gorgeous in so many ways.

It makes me happy that so many people love him :)

Thank you! And yeah, he really is all of those things.

I love Linkin Park too but aren't in the fandom, which is a good because seeing the weight thing in relation to Joe too would piss me off. People's obsession with how people look amazes me, it shouldn't matter but to somehow to some people it always does.

Thanks for the comment, feel free to drop by at any time :)

My rant came from seeing people who say how disgusting he is now because he's put on weight.

Jeez, I can't believe people have actually referred to him as disgusting. I'd gladly smack them for that pot shot.

And no sweetie, I never thought you were targeting me. If you were, please feel free to call-me on it in an open post. We all know filtered posts are shit. *g*

Terri-luv:

Wow, am I impressed!

Go you, that was a fantastic rant, and not just ranty but actually point-making.

And you are so right in your points; I couldn't agree more. That sort of shallowness is just *wrong*, and I know I can be shallow myself (mmmmmmmm, pretty!) but TRY not to be shallow like the haters, and hate myself when I catch my views leaning that way...

..Anyway, Thank You, Terri, and thank you even more for introducing me to the Chris love in the first place, which drew me into the fandom, and MAN, where the heck would I be without fandom? Someplace a lot less wonderful with a lot fewer wonderful friends, definitely!

Thank you!

I'm glad I got some of my points across as I feared I may have lost the plot a few times as some of those things cut a bit close to the bone you know?

Man, I can be totally shallow myself, you know that. There's a huge difference between having fun while being shallow and being a hater, and really all my friends know that difference.

You're more than welcome, I couldn't imagine this place without you now!
