    9. 9

      ok…who told this girl she could sing?????? her voice sounds like a cat meowing into a tin can!! what the hell?!?!



    10. 10

      shes horrible. the only reason you like her is because she's gay. that is NOT cool. stupid bias.

      also, i'm all for people being proud of her body, but that CANNOT be healthy.

      pukatronic



    14. 14

      Love them.
      But whats with the sound not matching with the video, anyone else?



    15. 15

      OUT OF SYNC



    16. 16

      Okay, love the song but..
      Beth Ditto has some SERIOUS sausage fingers.



    17. 17

      could you for once fucking upload a video correctly so the god damn words sync with the video



    18. 18

      Gr8 Video, Gr8 song, Gr8 artist.



    19. 19

      I can't tell if the video and sound are out of sync or if they just used a video for a different track for this song.



    20. 20

      Re: Ninifr – Ok she is a moo moo cow, but this song is hot. Pre-MTV, Beth Ditto would have been HUGE (no pun intended).



    21. 21

      Ditto and sexy are two words that will never belong in the same sentence.



    22. 22

      Man that bitch is fat as hell. WTF.



    23. 23

      I love this song / video, best to date from them!



    24. 24

      One word: AWESOME!

    25. epic says – reply to this


      25

      nah, the voice just has no depth. otherwise it would be a really nice song, but the voice just lets my ears explode.



    26. 26

      love love love this song.. not such a Ditto fan though!



    27. 27

      it a great song and i love the gossip, as a skins fan its sort of obligatory, but perez dont be a hypocrite, praising beth whilst calling jessica simpson and that kim girl fat



    28. 28

      fucking LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love the song, love them all…. fucking awesome!



    29. 29

      She's amazing, love her!



    30. 30

      She 's gross…thinking she is sexy…FAT is NOT sexy.
      …and you called her a cow a few days ago… how much did you get to promote the video?



    31. 31

      Beth Ditto is God! So not like all the other pop tart puppets in todays music industry. They should all take a lesson from her.



    32. 32

      are you people wacked. This shit is better than lady gaga's shit. I like gaga a bit but ditto got that unique sound i havent heard in a while. Now lets talk about ashley tisdale cover of hilary duff!! LOL



    33. 33

      Re: iluvperez1 – Are you on a fucking speedball?! She is an amazing singer. Listen to more of thier music before you judge the women's talent. Amature!!!



    34. 34

      Love it! Beth Ditto is amaaaaazing! ;)



    35. 35

      Awesome song!



    36. 36

      Beth has such a powerful voice! LOVE IT!
      Better than Katy shittyarse Perry!



    37. 37

      LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!!! Ditto Rocks!



    38. 38

      Re: jingerkissmelove

      She's american : )



    39. 39

      she has a wicked voice and I really love this song :)



    40. 40

      She is quite talented and unique…but on a VERY serious note, she needs to do something about her weight. She is gorgeous no doubt, but I hardly believe she is healthy. She needs to get that under control, and I hope she does because i would love to continue hearing her sing 40 years from now.

    41. Wingy says – reply to this


      41

      GREAT song and video! Go ahead, Beth!



    42. 42

      It reminds me a little bit of "Standing In The Way Of Control."



    43. 43

    44. Caset says – reply to this


      44

      I think shhe should lose some weight. I'm not saying she has to be skinny but she is at an unhealthy weight right now. It's good to be proud of who you are no matter what and there is nothing wrong with being roundish, but she could lose 50 lbs and would be at a much healthier weight.



    45. 45

      What's she doing with her hands while she's singing? looks like she 's "vogue-ing"? not cool.



    46. 46

      wow her singing sucks



    47. 47

      hotttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt



    48. 48

      She is a disgusting fat pig.



    49. 49

      Yeah she "rocks your world" when there's a new album, but if she's making a valid point about one of your fave pop princesses she's a moomoo cow. lol predictable.

    50. meme says – reply to this


      50

      Totally rips off Stevie Nicks and Edge of Seventeen



    51. 51

      Yuck, she makes me sick.



    52. 52

      I have never heard of Beth!
      She is amazing!
      Who gives a rats ass about her sausage fingers! It is screwed that when a man is chunky it is acceptable he is lovable but if it is a woman she is looked down on!
      I may be a 50 year old Dudette but I know I have a open mind compared to these young pups!



    53. 53

      I love Adam Lambert!!



    54. 54

      Re: Robotboy
      On what how to have a heart attack before you hit 30?
      I do not have a problem with curvy women , I do have a problem with women like her who try and teach girls it is ok be such a horribly unhealthy weight.

    55. J2thb says – reply to this


      55

      I didnt to think it was cool but I do! It has a very 70's sound to it!



    56. 56

      the SONG is great…but I am sorry, being the mean bitch that I am I just CAN NOT get over the fat tub of lard SINGING IT!!! she should put down the Twinkies and pick up a 3lb weight instead. how do people let themselves get THIS freakin big?btw, I am no model at all…not even close, but come the fuck on, that is disgusting!



    57. 57

      Re: Puffin

      Ugggh. You're obviously not comfortable with YOU!



    58. 58

      Re: AshleyNicoleme

      You are so right. Too many young'uns think that Britney Spears is the epitome of art and singing ability LOL



    59. 59

      Re: Thimbles20

      And that's what she's teaching? She happens to have a weight issue and is successful. Should she apologise? Wierd way of looking at that. Are you unhappy with yourself? I find that the most judgemental people are the ones who are really unhappy about something with themselves…



    60. 60

      her guitarist needs to take some guitar lessons



    61. 61

      Re: Matt73 – actually I love me…I could tone my abs a bit…but other than that I'm good. but if I weighed 800lbs and couldn't even form a fist with my hands because the fat got in the way then yeah, I'd have huge issues with myself. it's not attractive nor is it healthy to be that big, I don't care how comfortable SHE is with her body her HEART will give up sometime in her early 40's if she's lucky.



    62. 62

      She just like all the other videos currently is re-dam-diculous! She can sing if she wants..go for it.. but for heavens sake don't make videos if you look like that.. im just saying. ewwie



    63. 63

      her voice sounds annoying.



    64. 64

      Absolutely amazing and catchy song! I thoroughly enjoy her voice and the video's not bad either!



    65. 65

      The Gossip is great. Beth is great.

      Dear douche bags who are trying to be witty by critizing someone's body type,

      Please eat a bag of dicks and die.

      Thanks,
      SR



    66. 66

      No respect for her since she bashed Katy Perry– :(



    67. 67

      Wow…..that sucks.



    68. 68

      I like the song .. but i swear is an old song… i heard it last year… or it sound like an old song they had… well anyways is sound familiar..



    69. 69

      I love this song!



    70. 70

      I don't get it. Kirstie Alley is a cow, but Beth Ditto isn't? Because she's a lez, right? Loser. By the way, the song sucks.



    71. 71

      FABOOSH!!!!!!
      Quality rocks.
      Beautiful voice.
      Beth is amazing and very very beautiful.
      My only concern about her weight is not the looks, cause she is TREMENDOUS, it is the health problems related to the overweightness.
      Peace out Ditto



    72. 72

      what a fucking fatass! she shouldn't be ALLOWED to appear on music videos.

      what happened to hot lipsyncing frontwomen?



    73. 73

      Thank you so much, P-baby!!! I have never really seen anything by Beth Ditto before. She's fucking amazing!!!! Finally, between Gaga and Beth, we have real women singing real songs again!!!



    74. 74

      Re: papayaaa
      I totally agree with you. I'd be glad if she dropped around 20lb-30lb for HEALTH REASONS because I want to enjoy her voice for a LONG TIME. And plus to you idoits who are going to harp on me for saying that she should probably drop weight for her own sake, one of my favorite singers died from anorexia and I myself am curvacious for my height. I



    75. 75

      STOP SAYING FABOOSH YOU STUPID FUCK!!!



    76. 76

      probably the only good group you support on your site.
      Props to the Goss!



    77. 77

      One word…WOW!

      Ok, I lied…

      I haven't heard her music before. Not my usual choice in music genres, but girl can sing and girl can rock!!! I've been missing out.



    78. 78

      Awesome! Love it!



    79. 79

      They suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OK, they're not that bad. They're mediocre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



    80. 80

      You know something. I work for H&M. I've been listening to songs by the Gossip for well over a year and never knew who they were. It wasn't until I saw them on your site, did I connect the dots. I am really digging their sound, despite what all the "haters" are saying. So Beth is a fuller figured gal, back off of her, if she wants to address that, that's up to her. She has a great stage presence from what I see, a real confident swagger and that's really cool to see. I like her voice and the intensity of it. The article she interviewed for in Out was really good and made me like her even more. Give her some credit, she's out there working her craft, being herself, and having fun. How many people who sit here and judge people can say they are doing the same?



    81. 81

      For all of us that love the music, her weight has sbsolutely NOTHING to do with the poise and power of her voice. This type of raw talent is not generated, it is in the fabric of the artist. She is truly… inspiring!



    82. 82

      every gay man I know has an overweight, obnoxious girl bff
      why not…



    83. 83

      What is so faboosh and fierce about watching a person that can only move their hands and fingers to their mouth? Stop sensationalizing a person that should only be held as a model of what we should avoid letting our body weight blow up to. Her singing isn't bad, not as amazing as you blow her up to be Perez. She seriously needs to take better care of herself.



    84. 84

      Its sad that this band will never be accepted by the mainstream- all because of the way she looks and the fact that they are a gay band. Sad. I think they are amazing!



    85. 85

      This is my favourite song from The Gossip. It totally rocks, can't listen to it enough.



    86. 86

      I dont understand what the shit does she have to do with fashion.



    87. 87

      I wanted to like it - but it was just horrid.



    88. 88

      Awful, awful, awful!!! She has T-Rex arms.



    89. 89

      she is a big fat bitch and no one likes her!!!!



    90. 90

      she's a fat bitch.



    91. 91

      Who wants to look at that chick making sexy eyes to the camera? Not me! I bet people are saying that shes a good role model for fat children so that they know they can be something someday and that you dont have to be a size 0 to be famous, well I think that is a load of shit. It is NEVER okay to be that fat, and it is never okay to tell a girl its okay to be that fat. Its good to be comfortable in your skin, but that kind of weight is just ridiculous



    92. 92

      This disco shit is great, but if there is any doubt that she can sing you must listen the the bluesy stylings of an album like "Movement", by Gossip.
      It's sweaty and lovely.



    93. 93

      They are from Arkansas and there home base has been Oregon



    94. 94

      ok, i tried to listen but couldnt get past that boring intro. who is this fat pig anyway ? i wish shed go away



    95. 95

      First music I've heard from this group.

      What vocals. She does well.



    96. 96

      It would take a steel reinforced cross to bear that load.



    97. 97

      i fuckin' love love love Beth Ditto she can do no wrong…..she is so fuckin' gorgeous and her voice is amazin'……all yall people that talk about her weight disgust me……not everyone wants or has to be fuckin' 100 lbs……Gossip is a bangin' band and Beth is a goddess



    98. 98

      she looks gorgeous



    99. 99

      I've only heard one other song by The Gossip, but I do like this one a lot. Beth Ditto can sing. She's pretty amazing, actually. All of the people who have posted about her weight and how she shouldn't be making videos–go fuck yourselves. She obviously doesn't give a damn about what anyone thinks and she's comfortable with herself. Why does it bother you so much? If she feels the need to lose weight later on, she will. I'd rather look at her any day of the week over that troglodyte Britney Spears.



    100. 100

      Not that great…. Did she diss little Katy Perry? If so - thats just lame… real artists are modest and "put up" other peoples music. Discriminating against it shows insecurity.
