Yeah kind of thought that myself...maybe Im about 3 months too late with that one.I'm not sure on Allison Goldfrapp qualifying. After their recent break into the mainstream market are they not (and thus her too) commercial now?
-
Allison Goldfrapp- Individual, glamorous, stylish..and I bet shes pretty filthy too. Doesnt need to get her tits and ass out in shitty magazines either.

It was just a bit of light hearted humour, if you had acted like you were offended I would have stopped taking the mick, but you were cool about it mate.

The guy in question took it as a laugh, so why are your toys flying out of the pram?I can guarentee that this is story you are rubbishing is 100% true, do you not have anythign better to do with your life than bitch about other people's lives? im assuming that pic in your sig. is you, not your boyfriend? and if it is you i would consentrate more on trying not to look like you have special needs rather than being a twattell you what you'd best fucking hope you don't ever bump into PK mate because unless you have the ability to 'Hulk Up' your going to shit your pants because he will fucking kick the shit out of you like you were an illegitemate child, now fuck off.p.s. fuck off back to whatever State in America Canada is in you US wannabe bastard

BEWARE OF THIS MAN!He Can Kick WindScreens in with a Single kick, he is vicious ruthless and determined to do harm!....

I can just see the police statement:"The attacker was apprehended by being knocked unconscious by a "sweet chin music" and immediatly afterwords the victim of the attack was witnessed crouching down and flexing his muscles, as fireworks shot into the sky from a neighbours garden"Also, if you would like to me try to find the police statement detailing what i did, then i can do that!
-
After no selling a few punches, why didnt he hulk up, hit him with 3 right hands, a big boot and a legdrop....the fight would have been over so much quicker, and would have saved him some of the pain.
-
Of course, the next part, when he caught said windscreen breaker with a sweet chin music was just so utterly believableIm surprised his attacker never noticed him tuning the fan.Now I am all for alittle BS when it comes to these stories but you say He shattered my wind screen then he hit you 15-20 times and you did not go Down.....That is Alittle to much BS to handle!

I thought it was his teddy he was talking about.

Not taking sides here at all, but personally I felt a sense of deja vu whilst reading the article, esp at the Backlash comment.

Totally,mate, I cant really speak for any other fans, especially American fans ,regarding their perception of Michaels character.Also the casual fans may have been put off by WCWs attempted burying of WWF at the time"Micheals beats the big guy with a Superkick that wouldnt beat the guy down at the YMCA (or something similar)" This would have caused many to view Michaels with a negative attitude before they have even started watching.
-
I am not saying he wasnt portrayed as a ladies man, I am saying that his act as a face focussed on the positive aspects rather than the negative aspects of his character, his mannerisms changed and the "ladies man" part of his act was mainly restricted to his entrance. Personally his character i thought was more an underdog than a ladies man while he was face.I 100% agree with you regarding his ability to attract the casual fan, but I do not think the drop in crowd popularity was due to casual fans, because WWF was not really attracting any new fans in this era, they were tuning in to the NWO.
-
As far as the whole popular with the ladies thing goes, I am not sure if that really holds true. As a heel, Michael rammed it down the fans throats to get heat, but as a face Michaels act was portrayed as being sure of himself and "the embodiment of todays youth in America" (I am sure the announcers used this phrase) As a face, sure Michaels did his act , kissed a girl at ringside etc etc but I have to say his face act never annoyed me as a fan, and you knew you were going to say some great action, and on top of that was put over sky high by Vince at the announce table. Interesting point- Was it a coincidence that Michaels' babyface appeal weaned as Bret Hart made his comeback, rather than the jealousy theory?I certainly agree that his backstage antics should never be considered while assessing Michaels as a performer.
-
Just going back to the crowd reaction to Michaels at Survivor Series 96, I dont think that this is an appropriate example to back up the point that people found it hard to get into him as a face. I can think of many occasions when the New York crowd have cheered the heel, Rock vs HHH at SummerSlam 98 for one, and Sid was not a fully fledged heel anyway, thus still had a great deal of fan support regardless.Good discussion.
