Tan Mom Has A New Song And Video... Sort Of

You are not misreading this. This is a post about Tan Mom. You know I usually don't buy into the tabloid trash, but she's making music. I mean, it's not great music, but it is pretty catchy. Ok, people, you've really got to stop judging me. Yes you there. Just watch this and LEAVE TAN MOM ALONE!



Don't be fooled by the first few lines of the song. "It's Tan Mom, bitch" is pretty much the only part of the song she remembers throughout the entire video. That's actually the part that astounds me. It is her voice singing, but for some reason on the video she doesn't even try to lip sync along with herself. Instead we just see her stumbling around, failing at doing the robot, and being the sun.

Yes, she is the freaking sun. It is pretty obvious that this video was meant to be a trainwreck and to be funny, and it is extremely successful at both of these things. If you pay attention to the lyrics (brought to life hysterically in the video, I might add), she is actually mocking the other non-celebrities such as Octomom and the girls from Teen Mom and their universally panned "music". I guess she gets points for that.

What she doesn't get points for is not remembering her own lyrics. I know I already harped on this, but really? Towards the end of the video, Adam Barta, one of the behind the scenes people turned video ho, actually lip syncs the words for her. The video also stars a hot guy in a speedo and Sailor Moon.

What makes this song so fun is that it never set out to be amazing. Quite possibly they could have set out to make a bad song on purpose to capitalize on all the others out there doing the same thing but taking it far more seriously. Patricia may not be the smartest of the famous-for-no-reason celebrities, but she hast he right team behind her. Unfortunately it doesn't look like much of the internet really "gets" it. Luckily you have me. Or I could be wrong and they are just batshit crazy. Who cares?
