Is he really an Idol??? Scary...:<

[shais_mom]

No, I am not saying that at all. IMHO I don't think it is 'right' to advocate 'hating' animals. And I think it is different when it involves pets. There are so many famous stars that advocate against this type of behaivor and what makes it 'ok' or 'right' that HE says he dislikes them. I think if he would have said that he disliked dogs, or horses or birds, or people of different race people would have done the same thing.
What would happen if he said that he hated sheltie dogs and had ran one over purposely or not?

Kinda like if I ran over a child and then later stated that I dislike kids.

Celebrities have a certain level of responsibility and just saying that you dislike a living creature, a pet, speaks volumes.

exactly Aly, that is what I was trying to say but didn't have the gift of words

Well if he stated he ran something anything over on purpose I'd be mad. If he stated he ran over a sheltie by accident, I'd feel sad for sure, but hate him and not buy his music (if I liked it), no I don't think so.

I think though that part of the problem here is that he is new to being famous and probably doesn't realize the power his words have. I think he just has a lot to learn about speaking publicly. I don't think that means he can't say he dislikes something, though. Just means that he needs to learn how to better get his meaning across.

Ok I agree with you there. I think he is just new to this whole stardom thing and probably doesn't realize how he's going to sound to the general public.

Now let's see...

I was born on Halloween, had a black cat named Neko for many years...

Wasn't there a Stephen King movie with a cat sucking the breath out of a sleeping child?

There may be some kind of negative folklore deal going on here. What do you think?

[mugsy]

He's a moronic idiot who thinks he's being funny and looks like an ass doing it. I hope his cat does haunt him for the rest of his life. I did not read into it that it was an accident. He sounds like a nasty nasty person who just likes to be mean. But, then I usually do misinterpret what they're saying.

I hope he enjoys while he can, because I'm sure he'll be a flash in the pan. (OH DARN)

Oh, for the record....I do tend to be pretty vindictive when it comes to hurting animals. Just ask Mike.

[bluekat]

Now I have a reason to hate him
He's the only celebrity that I know that has said something like that. He's an idiot. He said that he ran over his cat when he was 16? Yes, I hope that the spirit of the cat will forever haunt him.
Doesn't he realize that some of his fans would be hurt by that?

Good thing it'll probably only last 15 minutes

LOL Too true! Let's hope less than 15
