I got a google alert for Justin Guarini yesterday ~ I get so excited when I see those because I am always hopeful the headline will be something like “Simon Fuller Guilty Of Sabotage! Justin Awarded $50M and A Career!” It was almost that good. It was an alert for a blog entry from Essential Justin’s Blogsite. Â
I am so ashamed to admit it, but my Kelly Clarkson hackles were raised after I read it. I read it, and read it, and read it and read it some more not believing that my beloved Justin board would be so far off on their take of the Kelster. I am embarrassed because after reading it again this morning, I realized that it was in absolutely no way derogatory toward KC. At all. Not even close. Mind you, I am the QUEEN of preaching for fanbase civility, respecting opinions, not rushing to judgment, “the stupid media twists everything” - and there I was irritated by a sentiment that wasn’t even there! I certainly went tumbling ass over kettle off my pulpit this morning.
Luckily, I didn’t post a response - I would have made a complete idiot of myself. However, at the same time I received the alert, I was writing an article about Essential Justin. It has since been edited….

Those idiots at EssentialJustin try to play both sides acting like they like Kelly and Justin, but dissing Kelly whenever they get the chance. They think they know so much about Justin but they just want to control things around his career. They put down other idols down and in the end, it just makes the guy they say they support look worse in comparison. Theres only a few of them there so they don’t speak for Justins fanbase at all.

Good grief.
