Tommy Picks the Best Songs by Former Cunts of the Week

Cunts as far as the eye can see.

While it would take an act of God for a Cunt of the Week to lose his or her title, I do recognize that it's a dubious term. Public figures (or those in your own lives!) can be such cunts but also contribute something amazing to society. And ain't that just life? Well, it's certainly not shocking that almost half of the former Cunts of the Week are from the music industry. (They can't all be Britneys, after all.) To prove the point I stated earlier, I am going to select the best jams by these musical cunts, because who am I to deny that Lady Gaga has a catchy song or two? Let's go!

Rihanna (Officially knighted cunted on September 26, 2012)

• "What's My Name?" ... I'm not sure what it is about this song, but I love it. I think it may have something to do with the fact that it was released back when my intense hatred for RiRi was a subdued intolerance. I also have a soft spot for Drake. And even though the repetitive lyrics of "Oh na na, what's my name?" get irritating (YOU'RE NAME IS FUCKING RIHANNA), this song is a jam.
• "Te Amo" ... After the whole Chris Brown beat down, Rihanna released some pretty dark tunes, including this one, in which she's the object of another woman's affections. It's a fun song with a pretty interesting message. (You might not be able to discern what that message is, however; Rihanna's Barbadian accent is on full blast here.)
• "S&M" ... It may be controversial, with an MTV-banned music video to boot, but this song is a pure and utter jam. The true party, however, started when Britney laid down some Rugrat-style vocals for the remix.

Taylor Swift (Cunted on October 10, 2012)

•  "Begin Again" ... God only knows which one of Taylor's fucks this song is about, but whoever it is, kudos to him for inspiring something good out of her for a change! The song is catchy and well-written. Best of all, it's about thinking love is a crock and then realizing that's not true once the next guy comes around; this is quite possibly her most autobiographical song to date.
• "Enchanted" ... In 2010, Taylor thought she could get away with releasing songs that clocked in around 6-7 minutes. Um, no. But one good jam came out of that batch of overinflated songs, and that's "Enchanted", which manages to both embody everything that's annoying about Tswift and somehow make it all less annoying.
• "Eyes Open" ... Why Taylor was the only artist on The Hunger Games soundtrack to get TWO songs, I'm not sure, but at least one of those songs is good, and that's this one!

Christina Aguilera (Cunted on November 28, 2012)

• "Woohoo" ... Any song that uses thin censorship while referring to genitalia instantly captures my attention. Just try and listen to this song without the lyrics "Licky licky, yum yum, what a great guy/K-kiss on my woohoo!/All over my woohoo!" getting stuck in your head! And when Nicki Minaj comes in with that rap! Ooh child!
• "Reflection" ... While Britney totally came out on top of her alleged feud with Xtina, both have a good number of 90s jams in their catalogs. The pinnacle of Christina's early career off of the Mulan soundtrack, and thereafter inspired many a school talent show performance.
• "Your Body" ... As a former Jam of the Week, this doesn't need an explanation.

Aly & AJ (Cunted on January 16, 2013)

• "Potential Break-Up Song" ... Their album needs just one, after all. While recording this jam, Aly & AJ must have finally realized that they weren't serious musicians and had a contract with fucking Disney Channel, because they abandoned their angsty acoustic crap for some autotuned dance floor BLISS. 
• "Rush" ... A lamer predecessor to Katy Perry's "Firework", "Rush" is all about not letting the haters get you down... And possibly a drug-induced rush. I'll leave it open for interpretation.
• "On the Ride" ... When I was younger, I honestly thought this was the best song on the planet. I'm pretty sure the thought, "Maybe this will win a Grammy," went through my head. My God. Thankfully that didn't happen. But it's still a fun song!

Justin Bieber (Cunted on February 6, 2013)

• "As Long As You Love Me" ... Although I was initially disappointed that this wasn't a Backstreet Boys cover, I grew to love this song. It's the first one that made me realize that maybe the Biebs had something worthwhile to listen to.
• "Beauty and a Beat" ... A former Jam of the Week with the poetic beauty of a wiener/Selena rhyme that more than explains why it's on this list.  #RIPJelena #AreTheyBackTogether? #LostAllTrack
•  "Overboard" ... So I'm not exactly sure what purpose this song serves, as a studio version has never been released, and we must make do with a live recording. But the fact that this a DUET WITH MILEY CYRUS makes it worth copious amounts of listens.

Beyoncé (Cunted on February 13, 2013)

•  "Irreplaceable" ... Who doesn't love this song? To the left, to the left. Mm, you tell him, girl! I'm not sure why she ever went on to record a Spanish version of the song, but the fact that she did just cements its universal popularity.
• "Halo" ... While Bey is far from an angel, this song is sweet and catchy. And remember when Glee mashed it up with "Walking on Sunshine"? Genius!
• "Check On It" ... Anybody who saw The Pink Panther knows what's up here. This was one of the first songs I ever put on my iPod, so it holds sentimental and nostalgic value for me.

Chris Brown (Cunted on March 27, 2013)

• "With You" ... Before he was a woman-beater who went on Twitter rants, assaulted the paparazzi, and threw television sets out of windows, Chris Brown was adorable and sweet, and "Forever" proves it. (And cue teenage girls who say things like "chris brown is so hawt i'd let him beat on me"... now.)
• "Look at Me Now" ... This song was shocking when it first came out. Chris Brown raps? Well, he does it well, or at least fast, here and I find it all very exciting!
• "Forever"... Vintage Breezy is the best, as far as he's concerned at least. I like to listen to this song while chewing Doublemint gum.

Lady Gaga (Cunted on April 17, 2013)

•  "The Edge of Glory" ... When Lady Gagme isn't trying to shove a rainbow flag down my throat whilst sporting an unflattering dress made of Kermit the Frog dolls, I can sort of see why people like her. "The Edge of Glory" is a fun and, dare I say, epic jam.
• "Paparazzi" ... The only thing better than this song is its music video, which features Alexander Skarsgard mmm.
• "Dance in the Dark" ... Always the champion for the underdog, Lady Gaga sings about self-conscious girls who like to have sex with the lights off. It's an interesting topic, one that I'm glad she explored, because the result was an irresistable jam.

The Pussycat Dolls (Cunted on May 8, 2013)

• "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destinty)" ... I've never seen Slumdog Millionaire, but I know that this song is originally from the film. Nevertheless, the Pussycat Dolls' version is so flawless that I'm sure it's better than the movie's.
• "I Hate This Part" ... One of my favorite musical themes is one in which the singer can sense the end of a relationship coming and go into denial. That's exactly what happens in this song and it's fucking genius. Stay pressed that this isn't your song.
• "Don't Cha" ... Who would I even be if I didn't include this song? It put the girl group on the map and has one of the most irresistible hooks of the 21st century: "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me/Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me." Classic.

And there you have it: proof that even the worst of cunts *coughcough*Rihanna*cough* can produce some thrilling songs. So don't be surprised if you see some of these singers' work as a Jam of the Week in the future!

Cunt of the Week: Aly & AJ

If I were their parent, I'd probably kill myself.

Over the course of its existence, the Disney Channel has created many a star. From The Mickey Mouse Club's Britney Spears and Ryan Gosling, to the current crop of triple-threats ranging from Selena Gomez to Zac Efron, the network is at least partially responsible for giving us endless celebrities to obsess over. Unfortunately, there are always the occasional bad apples that stink so much they nearly ruin the entire harvest for everyone. Case in point: Aly & AJ.

For those with a Disney-deprived childhood, sisters Alyson and Amanda Joy Michalka are amongst the earliest prototypes in the Mouse House's experiments, a process which has yielded the likes of Hilary Duff and Miley Cyrus. In 2004, Aly made her debut on Disney Channel's Phil of the Future as Keely Teslow, a piece of gypsy trash without a clue. The show barely lasted two years because it was really shitty. Nevertheless, it launched Aly into tween stardom and it wasn't long before Disney was throwing other acting and musical opportunities her way. Not one to be forgotten, AJ quickly hopped aboard the Exploitation Express, a pattern all too common in their sisterhood, and thus Aly & AJ were born.

As a "band," the girls released some admittedly catchy jams. "Into the Rush" and "Potential Break-up Song" were where it was at for any Disney Channel fan circa 2005-07. They even starred in their very own Disney Channel Original Movie called Cow Belles, and that's when you KNOW you've made it. But it wasn't long before the cunting began. Pretty soon, you couldn't go anywhere without them cramming their shit down your throat. Rumor has it they would glide through life yelling things like:

HERE'S OUR CHRISTMAS ALBUM! HERE'S OUR SONG IN THIS MOVIE! HERE'S OUR SONG IN THAT MOVIE! HERE ARE OUR BARBIE DOLLS, THEY SING! HERE'S OUR NEW MOVIE! HERE WE ARE ON DISNEY 411! HERE'S OUR NEW ALBUM!

That shit might work if you're a backwoods slut-in-training in a blonde wig or a High School Musical cast member, but it ain't a cute look on Aly & AJ.

Their favorite thing to cram down people's throats, however, is their Christian beliefs, though they'd never admit it. The following are actual quotes they've barfed out in regards to their religion:

• "I think that's kind of disrespectful, anything that has to do with anybody's beliefs on religion, that should stay out of the classroom. I mean, I think people should be able to pray in school, if people were into that. Everybody should just do their own gig." - Aly
• "Evolution is silly. Monkeys? Um, no." - AJ

Bravo, ladies.

In addition to being sisters, they're also lovers.

In 2009, Aly & AJ decided to rename themselves 78violet for whatever goddamn reason and promised to deliver edgier, rockier music. Four years later, that hasn't happened. And Disney dropped them. In the meantime, they started working separately as actresses. You may remember AJ from critical and commercial smashes such as Secretariat and Salem Falls.

Elsewhere, Aly was playing a slut in almost every movie she appeared in, including Easy A and The Roommate. Wonder how Jesus would feel about her playing a character whose nickname is Bits, or Big Tits. She had the starring role in Hellcats before that shit circled the CW drain. Forever mooching off her sister, AJ briefly joined the cast as well. If nothing else, her appearance on the show is what probably made viewers lose interest.

And there you have it. A brief history in the cuntitude of sisters Aly & AJ. As 78violet, they probably aim to be even bigger cunts, if that's even possible. Until that actually happens, keep a lookout for these two in any LA bar, where they'll likely be getting hammered together, fiddling with their crucifix necklaces and recounting the glory days of their breakout hit Super Sweet 16: The Movie.

25 Days of Christmas #13: "Greatest Time of Year" by Aly & AJ

Long before they completely and desperately faded into oblivion (wtf is hellcats?), Aly & AJ were the premiere Disney Channel sisters. Bitches even had a Christmas album, which is fitting since they're always talking about Jesus and bitching about how evolution shouldn't be taught in school (more on that during their scheduled Cunts of the Week post). Putting aside their blind religious babbling, Aly & AJ prove two things with "Greatest Time of Year": (1) they know how to make a great holiday jam; and (2) they have no grasp on the English language. Greatest time of year. Really?
