Something I really don't like, and that I've noticed with ever-increasing frequency, is when people slag off others such as members of Busted or any other group, saying that they're a 'cunt' or sundry other insults. To call someone a cunt because you personally don't find them attractive, or to call them a cunt when you've never met them in person, and they've never said anything insulting to you is really offensive. I seem to recall a thread recently posted on the main board where James asked if someone actually knew him when they said 'I don't like him, he's a twat'. That summarises my point exactly. Don't comment on someone personally when you've never encountered them in that sense. /moral high ground. I do not need to know George Bush or the Yorkshire Ripper personally to know they are complete cunts. Using this theory, I do not need to know James Bourne to have the opinion he is a cunt. I wonder if the situation would be different for all those Busted zealots, if I was ranting about ,for instance, Clea or Blue.

In some cases I would agree with you, but you are in the forum titled 'Clowns & Idiots of the World We Call Pop'. What level of debate did you expect?

hes a great guy really, and busted are a cool bad. full stop. My friend met him.. okay well not so much "met" him but saw him when she walked into a resturant. Her family and her had a table reserved for them and they sat down just as he and his gf got up to leave.. she had a great big grin on her face and the little sisters shouting "mum mum that's james from busted!!" he payed at the counter and he turned to my mate (who had a face like a cheshire cat) and he smiled and nodded at them, payed and walked out with his gf. She rang me up that night and she told me the whole story.. every tiny detailI laughed audibly at this she was so chuffed she saw him!

*He appears to have a glass eye. Why's that a reason for him being a cunt?

Monsta, that is high-larious. I was reading it thinking I'd disagree and come over all trollish, then after every point thinking "but... okay no you're right.. but... yes that's true too". Poor James, he's a bit of an oddity really. And his voice annoys me. I'm such a bad Busted fan. But if you listen to the first album then the second, it's like his voice has gone higher, and more Americanised, and therefore shit. I can hardly stand his verse in Thunderbirds. And also (I'm on a roll) everyone thinks Matt makes the faces, but on almost every performance he does that stupid 'O' thing with his mouth, and bops his head. Knobber. Then at the same time, he's a charming little monkey who I'd like to put in my pocket.
I feel better now. I also feel a bit guilty that nearly all my posts are related to Busted, but that's mainly because they are the only pop band I know anything about. Shame on me.

Apropos of James' perceived uglyness/troll-like appearance, when a poll on the fancy-ability of the three Busted'ers was run on PJ James won, with Charles 2nd and Matthew a distant third.
Perhaps it's his swollen bank balance that most appeals.

That mute guitar player freaks me out however. that would be Dougie, and he plays bass. He's not mute, he's just really shy, and hello, he's only just 17, so i don't think ANYONE can slag him off.

(hee hee) Except for maybe the slightly fit drummer. Slightly SLIGHTLY! James does come across as being largely Americanised, but I think he is really nice - priceless smile as well. Scandalous! What the hell were you thinking?! The Matt is a God-like creature. I've have a picture of him in my folder and he looks gorgeous !

hello, he's only just 17, so i don't think ANYONE can slag him off. Hahahahahahahahaha. I don't like James' dress sense (as monsta pointed out, three-quarter-length trousers make even the most beautiful people ugly and laughable) and the fact that he thinks he's American is annoying but he seems like a nice guy.

James is my least favourite from Busted - but i dont dislike him at all, iv met him a number of times and he is lovely and a genius for writing killer pop songs. ha i see what u mean about the stupid fake wannabe american accent tho, the frizzy hair and 3/4 length trousers though.
SORT IT.
On the other hand i hate Tom from Mcfly. Hes just an idiot. period.

I think I'll disagre with the statement that James is a cunt. He'sone of those cute little monkey boys that as a young girl I would have found very appealing. He writes catchy tunes. I don't mind his americanisms.
But equally, i will defend your right to call him a cunt if you wish.

While I don't really hate him, I do think he goes out of his way to look awful. It's like Busted are in some sort of bad-hair competition with each other. Matt's clearly winning, which is a shame since he was once my favourite and we had similarish hair.
Busted are all a bit arogant to be honest. But you've got to give points to James for having Max Martin as his idol. Though none of his songs come remotely close to the genius of any Max Martin songs.

Only one member of Busted is allowed to be called a cunt, and I think we all know who that is...

I think James could go into depression after the split. I actually think he is going to suffer big repercussions of this. I don't think I'd go as far as to call it 'depression' as that's a serious medical condition that is truly life destroying. But James is not like Matt - Matt will put a brave face on; he'll shrug and smile sadly, and carry on. He'll be the one who cries in front of the fans. James will be the one who will sit at home at night, strumming at his guitar, and have the tears in his eyes of what could have been. Holy shiiiiiiit does that sound melodramatic! , but that's what I have in my head when I picture him now. He won't admit to anyone how truly crushed he is about this. And I think it'll be a while before he throws himself into anything like this again. Hope I'm melo-dramatically wrong, though.

I'm sure good old Matthew will help him through!
And anyway, he's got too much talent to sit around and mope. Ooh just had a thought, this whole event could provoke some amazing, heart wrenching songs out of him. I reckon that's what he'll do to ease the pain...its what most songwritters do isn't it.
