Ellie Goulding Is Trying Too Hard

One of the many, many, many problems with pop music today is that aspiring stars care way more about appearances than they do about actual talent. That’s why we spend more time talking about how far Miley Cyrus wedged her fishnets into her snatch for the red carpet than we do about how saturated and autotuned her crappy songs are. Take Ellie Goulding, for example, as the English musician performed at G-A-Y in London last night. She might have put on one of the greatest performances in music history, but I’d never know it because I can’t get past the fact that she looks like a temp receptionist dressed up like Ke$ha for the office Halloween party.
