Today's Blind Items
So, imagine if you will that you are a teenage girl and you have the opportunity to meet your male tween singing crush. Someone who comes from a singing family, but not as famous as the other part of the singing family. Imagine you meet this crush and he chats you up and before he leaves for the night he gets your phone number and you also make out a little bit. So, your tween crush goes on tour but while he is on tour he calls you and calls you fairly frequently. You really think he likes you and so when he asks you to meet him in another state you agree. Of course your mom doesn't agree to let you go alone but says she will go with you. The tween star is ok with that and so you make plans, buy tickets (cheap bastard) and book hotels. You get down there after having spent all that money and he stands you up. No call no nothing and you never hear from him again.
Aaron Carter?
ReplyDeleteI'd say she's a lucky girl, both to be rid of him, and to have a mom who's actually responsible and caring enough not to let her travel alone!
ReplyDeleteMiley's brother
ReplyDeleteI was going to say a JoBro b/c they are on tour right now, but they're all equally famous, I think?
ReplyDeleteI can't even imagine Aaron Carter having that many fans at this point, let alone a big enough career to go on any sort of tour. I also didn't know Miley's brother was a singer (or "singer")...for that matter I don't think I knew she had a brother.
Is his name Dick? If not it should be.
ReplyDeleteFirst person I thought of was Aaron Carter. Isn't there another Carter, or is it someone else who has that awful song that Ludicris is part of?
ReplyDeleteThe Cyrus family is plausible, though.
A JoBro
ReplyDeleteI think you are right Kris - Trace Cyrus ftw
ReplyDeleteThe oldest Jonas brother, he recently got engaged.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a mom and don't ever want to be one, so I try never to give parenting advice.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a guess because I don't keep up with any Tweeners (see above), but the mom showed bad judgment. What did she think would happen? They'd fall in love and get married?
Next time, save the money for your kid's college education.
Trace Cyrus and Demi Lovato
ReplyDeleteHmm, having to buy your own concert tickets when your "date" is the performer should have been the first clue....... I hope the mother is sane and was able to console her daughter. So many worse things might have come from this story - I consider them lucky.
ReplyDeletePrick.
ReplyDeletethe mom is clever and i'm sorry for the teenage girl!
ReplyDeleteWho is touring? Does Miley's brother tour?
ReplyDeleteI had originally thought a Jonas brother, but I think they're all equally (more or less) famous.
Doesn't Aaron Carter work the Wendy's drive through window?
Blinded by fame. Interesting how it screws with people's judgment.
ReplyDeleteElvis used to pull this shit all the time, but the girl would come home to find a brand new Cadillac in her driveway.
ReplyDeleteI would think the celeb in question came to his senses and saw that courting a minor was probably not a good idea...
ReplyDeleteCan't be the Jonas Bros. - they're all equally famous.
WHAT A JERK!
ReplyDeleteDITTO ON THE JERK...
ReplyDeletemiley's brother is as ugly as she is. the girl should feel worse for liking his ugly ass.
ReplyDeleteisn't there a forth Jonas Brothers brother? Don't know his name. He is certainly not as famuos as the rest. Could be him...
ReplyDeleteI read it as plane tickets, not concert tickets. Cheap bastard still, but not nearly so bad.
ReplyDeleteTrace Cyrus & Demi Lovato?
ReplyDeleteThere where the stories of them flirting on twitter & Then they where both counting down the days to see each other or something according to there twitters.
A couple of days after that she had a couple of tweets about being really upset and stuff.
Just a thought?
Trace Cyrus is in the band Metro Station. They did that "Shake It" song so I'd bet they did some touring.
ReplyDeleteI don't hate that song for the sole reason that my sons do the silly dance to it whenever it comes on, which can make anything awesome.
I think Miley's brother is like 19 or 20. So I'm not sure I'd call him a tween.
ReplyDeleteTrace isn't a tween, but he's adored by tweens. I guess. I'm voting for him.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, he just acted like a young, immature guy? What's so shocking about that?
ReplyDeleteI agree with Audrey, I don't think Mom should've gone along with this. Then again, Daughter was probably insufferable until she did.
ok, the mom is an idiot. she should know better thant to fall for this crap and build up her kids hopes for nuttin.
ReplyDeletei don't have kids either. i also don't drive a Greyhound bus, but I know when to apply the brakes.
I think It might be the oldest jonas brother too, I don't know a lot about them but the oldest (kevin) never seems to get as much publicity as his two brothers.
ReplyDeleteIs mileys brother really a tween crush? I didn't even know he existed until recently. I asked my tween sis and she doesn't know who he is either.
Maybe the mom thought he'd become their meal ticket if things worked out.
ReplyDeleteBoring...this one's a dumb one who cares. Most of these tweens are fucktards as far as I'm concerned.
ReplyDeleteI have 9 yr old twin boys....so they submit me to the "tween" stuff every now and again......I absolutely do not have a clue....and think that that "mother" is an absolute f'in asshole for letting her child buy into that....goes to show, it is not only the kids that have "stars" or "blinders" in their eyes! STUPID .....
ReplyDeleteThe mom is teaching the girl at a young age how to not be treated with respect. It is not a gender issue--I would feel the same way if it was a girl doing the inviting: whoever extends the invitation, pays. Quite simple. BTW, this also is salary neutral also (i.e. if I invite a rich friend to lunch, I don't expect them to pay just because they are rich). This mom/daughter need to have higher standards about how she is treated.
ReplyDeletesee, jax, that's the problem. YOU have some sense. you would be a good mom.
ReplyDeleteit's stupid people like this mom who shouldn't breed.
this happened to my DD, only without the travel, and the guy wasn't a celebrity, just a high school 'tard she had a crush on. his "mean girl" girl friend set her up, and it broke her heart, even though i advised caution.
at least idiot mom didn't let her go alone. wonder if asshole singer would have shown and blown if mom hadn't been there? could have turned out so much worse!
Yeah, I'm guessing that the loser celeb heard that Mom was chaperoning and that crashed his ego-driven cross-state booty call. He couldn't just say "never mind" when he found out & be exposed, so he just disappeared.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was definitely Trace Cyrus, although I think he's dating Demi Lovato. I guess this blind could be a few months old.
ReplyDeleteGroupie 101, if the guy in the band isn't flying you out he's not into you. He wanted the girl, guess what for? Mom came along and killed the deal, he's not out a dime and probably will never give the girl another thought.
ReplyDeleteGuys in bands have hundreds of women throwing themselves at them a week. They don't have to deal with a parent or anyone else because in 5 minutes there is a replacement available. The guy is a jerk, but when she didn't get plan fare & hotel if she wasn't staying with him, she should have bowed out and made plans to see him when he came back to town and worked things another way.
Minor children, and mom's don't really work for band guys. Even tween ones. Their lawyers make all this very clear to the musicians.
I think it's the JOBro's.
I don't give a shit but--OT--have any of y'all tried out this Cone in the ad to the right over there? >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
ReplyDeleteWhat about Jesse McCartney?
ReplyDeleteI made out with one of the guys from Milli Vanilli (The Rob one)when I was in college.I Thought that I'd just throw that out there for humors sake for everyone else.
ReplyDeleteI think that's who I'm thinking of, Ed. Is he from a singing family, though?
ReplyDeletejesse mccartney is not from a singing family and if he is and i don't know, he'd probably be the most well known.
ReplyDeleteIt's gotta be Aaron Carter. Does he still tour? Either way, that kid is a douche.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that Cyrus brother.
ReplyDeleteI hope you guys don't hate me for saying this, but maybe the mom was trying to teach her daughter (the hard way) that guys aren't always truthful. I know that a lot of girls will have this huge fantasy about their dream guy (ESPECIALLY teenage girls), and this girl may have had her head so far in the clouds that the only way to bring her down was show her, in person, that the guy was not serious. I just hope that was the mom's thinking. It would break my heart to think that the mom was this naive too.
ReplyDeleteBionic Bunny, I'm confused. In one breath you call the mom an idoit who shouldn't breed and in the next, you say the same thing happened to your daughter (with slightly different details)...
ReplyDeleteI actually agree with Kristin. Seems like every month a teen girl is running off with the "love of her life" that she met on facebook, etc. and getting into all kinds of trouble. At least this mom is aware of what is going on in her daughter's life and concerned enough about her safety to chaperone. Seems like this was her best option considering you can't keep your kids behind bars.
ReplyDeletethe mom is an idiot. she should know better thant to fall for this crap and build up her kids hopes for nuttin.
ReplyDeleteUnless Mom's name is Pamela des Barres.
The Jonas Bros are famous as a trio.
ReplyDeleteAaron Carter may as well be non-existant these days,and therefore would not be touring.
My vote is DEFINITELY for the Cyrus kid.
Wow, good one Jerry .. PdB is the goddess of groupies!
ReplyDeleteI keep getting stumped at "imagine if you will that you are a teenage girl." Immediately, I'm texting friends to meet me at Claire's, and I'm cyberbullying that skanky bitch that sits across from me in Algebra (she thinks she's so cool), and I'm wondering if Steve or Ryan are going to be at the big party this Friday. And can I really wear that lemon-yellow ruffle skirt out of the house, or should I change once I get there? Decisions, decisions. Oh, there's more? I'd better read on.
ReplyDeleteDonnie Osmond? Oh, wait - that's from when I was a teenage girl... (Aging myself here, aren't I?)
ReplyDeleteShaun Cassidy!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat is with this mom?? What does she think is going to happen between her TEENAGE daughter and singer? Feels pimpish to me. Was the mother Dinah Lohan, perhaps??
ReplyDeleteTrace Cyrus & Metro Station are touring w/ Miley (at least in the UK). Don't think it can be Trace/Demi as Enty would surely mention that the girl is super famous too. Also, Demi is friends w/ Miley in real life, so she couldn't really never hear from Trace again.
ReplyDeleteIt can't be Aaron Carter, guys. Isn't he like 45 now? Not famous, not touring, not relevant at all anymore. He was big in the late 90's, early 2000's, is a nobody to today's tweeners. I'm thinking Mileys bro...
ReplyDeleteAaron is only 21, he is not touring, and he is finishing up a CD. He is not into little girls...It ain't him!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm too old for this, but when I read this, all I could think of was Shaun Cassidy.
