Nikki is right. It's retarded to use Jonas and Cyrus as examples of
'rock n' roll.' They are Pop, and that is it periods

Rock was born of rebellion and angst....It was forbidden in most households in its beginnings, now we have these clowns like Miley Cyrus and the Jonas losers trying to turn it into something it is not. Rock redefines US, we do not redefine it. All the stepford wife soccer moms can let their spawn listen to that crap but as for me and my brood we're going to keep pulling up to the elementary school blasting Ozzy and Motley Crue through our speakers.

I'm not a fan of Motley Crue or much hair metal, but I do agree with Sixx: these should NOT be considered rock. I'd always thought they were pop at best.

Nikki is right on.Miley and the Jonas brothers are pop not rock.And musically they are pretty weak to be truthful.
