We can still contribute to this?

Take Avril Lavigne (who's as Teen Poppiest as they come), add the T-virus, wait for her to die, and what do you get?

Voting on this was really challenging...

5 Points To: Kristof Robertson
  - Great idea of not sticking to one diva and ripping on her. This left it open to make fun of all the Lindsay Lohans, Paris Hiltons, and Hillary Duffs out there. Also having it from the mind of the diva (a place I never want to enter alone) was clever.

4 Points To: Stuart McArthur
    - Since this was your old SOTM winner, I had to give it points. It was as good then as it is now.

3 Points To: Syncronos
    - At first when you pulled out "The Doors" I was worried about you, but since you moved onto Avril I felt a lot better about it. The idea was good, as well as being very timely. I too wanted to do a zombie parody to begin with, but I couldn't think of an angle. Good job.

2 Points To: Phil Alexander
    - I had no knowledge of The Fratellis whatsoever before you mentioned them, so I'm glad you did. I really enjoyed that song. The fact that you had an original story behind your song was very clever.

1 Point To: Jeff Reuben
    - One of my favorite movies, and this is a tough song to work with. I had to mark off on some points though because of repetition, but still good enough to snag a top spot.

Matthias - is it by midnight of November 1st (that is, the end of the day) or by midnight of October 31st?

I think last time you made it by the start of the deadline day, ie. midnight of the day before



**hoping it's midnight of Nov 1st**

3 pts: Matthias: Another fave movie well roasted

2 pts: Conquerer: I loved the idea behind this one

1 pt: Arwen: Is there no end to this gal's tales of twisted romance? Great stuff

Tough Damn Round. . . Much harder than most comps out there, but this is the Decathlon. . .

Ultimately I only had 5 slots, so no hard feelings anyone

5th, 1 Point to Matthias. . .Rhyme Scheme was pretty closely followed, and it was an awesome parody, a few more kicker lines would push this up a little higher

4th, 2 Points to Syncronos. . .ZOMBIE CROWS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH  Need I say More?  No! Well I will, Awesome parody, funny song to target too for the theme

3rd, 3 Points to Conqueror. . .and I too don't get the "Sequel Love" . . .You seem to have a knack for writing top notch parodies to Justin Timberlake songs, hmmm. . . A Transforming Justin Timberlake. . .that's scary

2nd, 4 Points to Arwen. . . A little love crush went a long way in this fantastic parody by Super Arwen the almighty, I am not huge on Transformers like Conq necessarily, but a good parody is a good parody and I have seen enough Transformers to get it.

1st, 5 Points to Kristof. . .c'mon now. . .How could I honestly give the 5 to anyone else. . .I mean, this was just drop dead funny all the way through. . .typical actress now days (not saying they are all like this--but hey). . .Another class act parody by the Parody King Kristof.

I hope to do the updates tonight, but I might have a bit of a problem with it, because I'm going to go to my college to hang out with friends... I'll try to find a PC though.

Okay...I know I'm a bit past the deadline...but I'm hoping Matthias will have mercy on me.  What was supposed to be a calm and relaxed evening filled with parody voting and getting to bed early turned into me working until 10:30...(my time)...so...I did the best I could.

Here's what I think...

5 points for Kristof
4 points for Stuart
3 points for Jeff
2 points for Syncronos
1 point for The Conqueror

Teen Pop... I don't know what I was thinking with this round, but the good news is that you all survived it... All of you except for Syncronos that is.

With his parody, "Scene Three, Take Three: One More Time"


In 2nd Place (40 Points)

If it helps any at all.... I don't hate your OS, but I didn't get your movie referances... I thought one might have been "Superbad", but I wasn't quite sure.

Congrats to our usual gang of idiots (to referances MAD Magazine): Kristof, Stuart, and Arwen!!!!  :D

I'm not sure I'm ever going to be able to cope with the fact that I won the "Teep Pop" round....there goes my already fragile street cred.
Still, thanks for supporting me and voting for my silly little Diva bash.

Congrats to Stu and Arwen for giving us parodies about two unstoppable, emotion-free, mechanical forces: Transformers and Madonna
