I found the following interview that I thought providing an interesting perspective on ABDC from Shane Sparks.

Usually you can tell which groups are going to be in trouble after the first challenge week but I thought they did a good job overall. Do you think any crew in particular will be in trouble down the line?
I think America’s finally getting it right right now. Last week we had a bottom two and it was exactly who should’ve been in the bottom two. Usually we’re really skeptical, like “Oh my god, why are they in the bottom two?” So the two [that were in the bottom], they’re good – Team Millennia, I like them, but there’s so much competition on this show right now they’ve almost gotta do three times as much as they did last season to maintain. We’ll see what happens this season or this episode. And I think this episode is gonna be the deciding factor of who’s really, really hot and who’s not because now they all have to come up out of their element and show a different side. The one or two or three that impresses us the most are gonna be the ones I feel like will last on the show the longest.

Whose idea was tonight’s Britney Spears challenge?
I don’t know actually who did this one but I think it’s a really good one. The only thing I’m sad about is the fact that Britney’s not gonna be on the stage with us. [leans toward the recorder for comedic emphasis] Britney, I hate you for that.

*laughs* Since she couldn’t appear, are you going to be doing another spotlight artist challenge this season?
I’m hoping we get somebody this year. I don’t know who it could be but it would’ve been perfect for her to come here — it would’ve set the tone for our whole season. But we’ll see.

When I talked to you at the finale, the hope was for the really good all-girl crew to come in. Now we’ve got one…
We’ve got two.

Enjoy all of the Britney Spears songs that the crews on ABDC had to perform to on the third episode of ABDC.  Also, take a look back at the previous ABDC music.  Being on MTV it has a great set of music.

Beat Freaks danced to the song “Womanizer” by Britney Spears while performing with two opposing dance styles

Dynamic Edition danced to the song “Stronger” by Britney Spears while performing with a chair

Fly Khicks danced to the song “…Baby One More Time” by Britney Spears while performing with sharp turns in their routine

Quest Crew danced to the song “Toxic” by Britney Spears while performing a portion of their routine blindfolded

Ringmasters danced to the song “Circus” by Britney Spears while performing as though on stilts

Strikers All-Stars danced to the song “Gimme More” by Britney Spears while creating mirror images of themselves

Team Millennia danced to the song “Me Against The Music” by Britney Spears while performing with a hat and cane as props

MTV’s 25th annual Video Music Awards will be hosted by comedian/actor Russell Brand and will air live, on Sunday, September 7, 2008 at 9PM (Live ET/Tape Delayed PT)

Britney actually looked good in this video and almost seemed normal, but considering it’s Britney I’m pretty sure she’ll almost forever be fine to put on Pure TV Freaks. One look at Russell Brand’s hair and you know he’s a classic TV Freak.

McCain’s ad that compared Paris Hilton and Britney Spears to Barack Obama has caused quite the controversy. Take a look at McCain’s Paris Hilton and Britney Spears ad:

I don’t think it’s a big deal and I think McCain makes an interesting point that should be considered. Should popularity be the sole reason you don’t vote for someone, no, but it highlights well the question of whether Obama has the skills needed to run the country. I’ll leave the answer to you.

The funny part is that Paris Hilton decided to create an Ad of her own announcing Paris Hilton’s campaign for the Presidency.

My favorite part of the video is when Paris says she might paint the white house pink.
