Gwen sticks up for big sister Vanessa
« on: July 09, 2003, 07:25:36 pm »
Vanessa Carlton's sister Gwen stuck up for her big sister after a negative posting by a fan of Jewel who blasted, "I just saw this chick's video on MTV and she sucks! She is trying to be like Jewel and Michelle Branch... they are so much better than her... and she's never going to make it in the business." Gwen's response...

Imagine taking three years out of your life to follow a passion. Vanessa dropped everything in her life to follow her music . Her music is who she is, and just by seeing one video of hers and listening to one song, you can only get a slanted oppinion. I highly doubt that you have ever seen her in a club spilling her guts out on the piano, then you can truely realize that this girl is for real. I dont know that you are even going to read this, but dont worry my sister most likely listened to your judgemental comment. There is a part of her that is scared to give her whole self out there into the world and to be getting judged for it. She knows that this is the backlash she gets to show people that there is more to music than Britmey Spears and O Town. People like you who dont even get to see the whole picture will realize that there is more to her than just an image, but there is a heart and passion to her music, and if you are blind to this I would wish that you tried a little harder to see it.
Thankyou for your time
Gwen Carlton

That is very interesting.

And I think Gwen is 100% right!

i thought i remembered seeing that on her official forum.  Gwen had a username (Gwen Carlton) and she posted i think 3 or 4 messages last year.  Of course, being unable to *search* or anything on the VCMB, we can't find them.  Also the "sticky" threads at the top seem to have disappeared which had them linked... so eh, oh well :)

Shades is right, I had forgotten about the poser for a while.  I'm going to remove the links so no one gets confused.

Thanks for the links Shades, i *knew* it came from the VCMB a long time ago
