I thought it was so cool of her to stand up to her label when they wanted her to sing her current single on Idol Gives Back: <em>"My label wanted me to sing 'Never Again,'" she says. "And I was like, To promote yourself on a charity event is beyond crass. People are starving and dying and I'm up there singing some bitter pop song? And believe me, everyone wanted me to sing it. Because they are jaded and they have no soul. Imagine sitting in a room full of people totally against you. Can't they hear themselves speaking? Capitalize on AIDS? Are you kidding? Insulting an entire nation of people? I just refused."</em> You’re welcome, hickifino.

I agree with Nostradamus though, I think all the comments in the DC article were meant as pot shots to Hilary, not necessairly Kat or anyone else.

Declaring à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“that was lameà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  is very bitchy</blockquote> Ok. IMHO. When Kat pointed toward the back of the crowd and said "You in the back let me hear it" and didn't really get a response, and then she said "That was lame, I have to admit" I believe she was talking about herself making the comment about hey you in the back. Watch in again, I think you'll agree. I think she is snarking on herself, not the people in the crowd.
