when i really think about it...
UNIVERSE isn't anything "spectacular". =x
i'm already getting tired of the songs (except Work It Out! i never liked that song), and i haven't been listening to the album non-stop. like i've heard each song once a day since it's been relased so far and... yeah.
don't get me wrong, it's awesome, but i can see why (other than economic problems) people wouldn't bother buying it.
and @ Nintendo's comment, yes.
i really do feel like it effected her really really badly.
of course, her true fans stuck by her. probably she lost a couple fans here and there.
but i think the majority of women from the general public can't stand her because of that.
and there's really no way to redeem herself, since her heart-felt, TEARED apology on t.v. was voted on a poll as not good enough or something like that.
unless she has a baby at 35+ years old, i dont think she'll regain those lost fans.
but it's nothing to fret about. i'm pretty sure a lot of young people weren't affected by it and her fans obviously stuck by her.

but still... it sucks.
