"Amy and Lily are doing so well in the States. I think Amy is the first white British female to get played on the urban stations since Lisa Stansfield."
"I think those two artists are the most exciting thing going on over there right now.
"It's a combination of how great they are, their originality, and the state of US pop.
"If you watch someone like Jessica Simpson she probably hasn't written one song of her own and someone is telling her how to sing.
"There is just nothing special about it." OUCH!
" Pussycat Dolls are the same - just so incredibly contrived. You can imagine a team of old white men in a boardroom coming up with song ideas and the marketing plan." DOUBLE OUCH!
Ronson recalls a candid moment with Amy Winehouse, "I remember the first time I played her the string section of Love is a Losing Game. I was too nervous to see if she liked it or not to look her in the eye.
"When it finished, she gave me a big hug and said: 'I love it, but take that Mariah Carey s*** out of the middle."
Way to go Mark! By my count, you've just created the perfect storm for at least three distinct celebrity cat fights. Keep em comming!
