Coin-Operated Boy
Well, last night I performed in the lip sync with Taylor. Lena and Micky came to bring us there, and Lena did our faces. Supposedly AFTER approving of the song, they then said that it was inappropriate. So in conclusion, we were disqualified. After we went on, I went out to get a drink and Mr Donelly was like "Stef, can you come here a minute?" "Yes?" "I need to see you and Taylor in my office tomorrow morning and I'll tell you what it's about then."
JOY.
So then during intermission I'm talking to the judges and they told me how awesome I was and how it seemed as though that was actually my voice and that it looked like I was singing it. >_< YAY. LOL, I was all thinking "awesome.. kudos from judges." And then I mentioned Donelly and they were like "He didn't tell you?" "No..." "We should tell her. I don't care what he said I'm telling her" and that's where she told me about the content. I explained how it was approved and it wasn't to be taken sexual. I explained how he's my friend and I chose him to be my friend that day. I also told them how the video has nothing like that either, the only suggestive thing in the video is at the end where the music slows down she turns out the light and he's lying next to her on the bed and she closes her eyes and goes to sleep.
Later on today from Ashley, I found out that after talking to one of the judges, that we actually would have gotten third place (which in turn would have won money) but because of the disqualifications, three groups that didn't even LIP SING won. We were the only group that actually lip sang and new EVERY single word to the song. Other people focused on their dancing. It was rediculous.
Well this morning while talking to Mr. Donelly, he doesn't understand how they let us go on with that song. We explained how it was already preapproved and they told us it was fine. So he was confused how it got past them. I have about 78 teachers standing up in our defense but Donelly explained that nothing too serious should happen since the whole show was a sexual disaster. The people in front of us did splits and then while in the split, the starting bouncing and making it look like they were fucking the floor.
But right now it's past Donelly and it's being delt with by the people above him. Aka, the superintendant: Mr. Golde. That's where it gets scary. Then he tells us not to worry, nothing it going to happen untill next week so for us to enjoy our Friday and then out three day weekend.
Helen Ann's dad videotaped a couple of the acts, including mine, so hopefully on Tuesday, I'll be getting a copy and then I'll put a video clip up on Woohu, Livejournal, and Myspace. I'll let you know when it's coming.
Thanks to all who came out and supported us, and for all those who liked our NONsexual song.
