    Is it wrong to like that song? I'm sorry. Eva Longoria is the hottest of the bunch and Andy Dick is awesome, leave him alone.

    Well, regardless, I still like Christina Applegate a whole lot more than I do Jessica Simpson. To be fair, I like most trolls more than I do Jessica Simpson, but nevertheless...

    Wow, you're right to even mention the "Holiday" song. Madonna should be giving her a call about some financial payback. Utter rip.

    Was the Holiday thing intentional?

    That video sucks as bad as the song, it seemed to go on for hours. Jessica sounds like crap there and the lyrics are just stupid.

    As always, the comments are the most entertaining part of the post.

    And please, please, please, has it been said enough times yet, please drop the My Fair Brady ads. Yuck. I am officially boycotting VH1 until the end of time, not that I would ever be caught dead watching VH1 to begin with.

    a. It is wrong to like that song.
    b. I didn't even know Eva Langorea was alive!!!
    c. ...and you're all complaining about the Chili Peppers "ripping off" Tom Petty... especially after hearing this song.
    d. I thought ProActiv was the "new Cristal".

    "I want to be the most obnoxious and condescending person in the world" is what they're all thinking. Too bad they weren't acting.

    But hey cmon, Christina Applegate still isn't bad - she will always be that sweet little girl in Married with Children.

    That video was a unique example of the suckiness of the whole being even more sucky than the sum of the sucky parts.

    I think I suck a little more for having watched it.

    Over It Guy is right, ProActiv is new Kristal.

    Andy Dick is killa, don't hate. And was that Seacrest as the limo driver? Eva Longoria has never been much more than a tiny flash in the pan anyway. Anyone else think it's kinda funny that she clearly had to put Ashanti in her video for some "color"? For as stupid as the video is overall, I've got to give it to the ladies for doing completely retarded things in the cutaway fanasy sequences.

    Something's wrong with Madonna's voice. She sounds like a functionally-retarded bimbo redneck.

    Were they joking??? Seriously, was that some kind of video joke or metaphor that I'm too stupid to understand? You know about the whole "I wanna be so famous that. . ." or "God, you guys, could we be any more famous?!?!?!?" lines? Because if they weren't, can you say EGOTISTICAL? And if they weren't. . .they should make it more obvious, because I wouldn't be surprised if they DID want to be "more famous than the internet" (so corny). You know? It's not that farfetched of a thing to imagine from them.

    And why the fuck is that ugly old woman from "Anchorman" there? She's not even famous! Neither is Christina Milian. The only two who are "superstars" in that video are Jessica and Eva (and they both suck ass).

    And am I the only one who had to look up the lyrics to know what the hell Jessica was saying? Because all I can understand is "Cuz the party won't stop!"
