"...or at least nothing that doesn't make her look like trash. Five stars? Please! This album is forgettable dreck, way over-synthed to try to cover up her weak voice. "You Can't Control Me" has a laughable Timbaland wannabe muttering something like "Huh?" to give it that "authentic" urban vibe, but it just makes it sound more derivative and contrived than anything else. It's just sad that innocent plastic had to die for this misbegotten CD to be made."
This album is absolute junk...with fake reviews

"I heard all the songs on the album and i can say she is just about as good as heidi montag... They are both a big joke. Its almost embarrasing to listen to it and her video is even worse."
Okay

"This was an okay album for a reality star. I mean she's hot but her singing is okay. Her music video was alright as well. Just another L.A. chick trying to extend her 15 minutes of fame."
Is this for real?

"These songs are so amateurish and unoriginal it's hilarious. Apparently the "artist" has been lied to and told she has talent. Buy this album only as a gag gift."
Uggghh please make it stop

"I gave this CD a chance since I figured with her reality show being high profile that she could have recruited a voice coach and/or a well known producer. This is embarrassing dreck with all the synth layers and the stupid moaning BS. Oh please, not again! I don't know how much of this embarrassing failure is due to her Svengali D-nozzle boyfriend Skate, Slate.....whatever his name is"
