bitful

I did not watch any of lonelygirl15's video blog entries on YouTube when she was all the rage. Neither did I deem her worthy of my online time when t'internet was blazing with suspicion that she was the scripted product of Big Movie Moguls.

Now that the creators have revealed that she is in fact an actress hired to act out some scriptwriter's project (indeed, from the scriptwriter's very own bedroom, it appears), I did watch some ot Bree's videos and noticed that:

• the editing is flawless. In the rap lipsync, I find it hard to believe that a couple of teenagers could have done that. But then again, I don't personally know many teenagers these days and I suspect most of them would put my non-existing editing skills to shame;
• there's a lot of music being played, and yet my very musical ear failed to recognise a single song. The more obscure the band, the less chances to be sued for copyright infringement, perhaps? Again, I have noticed most teenagers on MySpace royally ignore royalties issues;
• had I not know that the actress is in her mid-twenties, would I have believed that Bree is sixteen?
• if I had let my boyfriend into my bedroom at that age, I would have been grounded for life - that is, if I had survived my dad's violence upon discovering that his son had a boyfriend;

I so wish I had watched this from the beginning - now I'll never know whether I could have been fooled or not.

But enough of lonelygirl15. The real question now is 'Is geriatric1927 for real?'
