Lizzo is classically trained, plays a mean jazz flute and has a sense of humor.
I like her.

Sigh
You are entitled to your opinion.
I found her twerking with that glass flute very inappropriate and gross. I won't ever know how well she plays the flute because I won't watch her again.
It's been several years. You know, the pandemic and all. Plus I have an aversion to large crowds in general.
They said the same thing about Elvis. What was it? About 60 years ago.
As an actual millenial, thank you for saying this.
You sure you’re not confusing my generation with some other generation like Gen Z, landtuna? Because contrary to what you may have heard/thought, we don’t strive to work at Burger King or any fast food joint as a life-long goal. You feel talking in generalizations about generations makes you more superior/the moral authority? Hmmm...where have I seen this before?

So you're saying Gen Z does?
No. I’m trying to point out blatant generational stereotypes, albeit poorly worded.

Weren't the boomers (of which I am one, later edition) was supposed to have given us peace, love and harmony. We were and still are pains in everyone else's arse.
I would not call Shakey's plays "fine art". My personal cross is having one of his plays as my last name.
In your list of "fine art" do you also have the calliope and string quartets?
Mores were very different back then. And Elvis didn't appear topless or in his jock strap. AND he had a much better voice than does Lizzard. And IIRC he never topped 400 lbs. How popular do you think he'd have become as a grossly overweight singer dressed as a pole dancer?They said the same thing about Elvis. What was it? About 60 years ago.

If you will re-read my post I inserted a disclaimer that noted there are many Millennials that don't fit the entire profile. But how else am I to define the millions of slackers? I say what I see.
BTW, I don't keep track of the generations by the media's nicknames. I belong to none of them.
Well, @landtuna , I am technically a Millennial, but I don't particularly like being called one, especially because most other people close to my age (late 20s mostly) that I've met I have found to be, well, kind of rude and unmotivated, for want of a better description (I've had fewer such problems with anyone from Gen Z or before).
On top of that, I feel like I tend to identify with boomers more with respect to taste (music, etc.) and politics (most boomers I've met tend to be politically moderate, with variations ranging from slightly to the right of center (born 47-49) to squarely half-way between conservative Democrats and Progressives (50-55); Gen Z-ers and Millennials, in my experience, tend to be more decisively to the left, with many leaning strongly Progressive), so I'm feeling like I might as well have been born in the late 40s, since I don't feel like I fit in with my supposed generation very well.
Maybe as time goes by and Millennials mature more (many of them are still young-ish), this will change.
Anyway, while I think maybe, as others here have also said, that your somewhat derisive comments about Millennials are a bit overgeneralized, I don't entirely disagree that there's a fair number of them (especially younger ones) that don't have the greatest attitudes.

350 the final year of his life. Lizzo's 260.

Generations X,Y, Z and the Others
socialmarketing.org
We all should know of his final days with his absurd eating habits, almost complete isolation and health issues. My wife saw him in concert 4 years before he died and said he was way overweight then. Apparently it got a lot worse. But at least he didn't do live performances almost nude or in street walker attire.
In 1977, did anyone?
This article contains some very erroneous statements (example: Boomers II missing the whole Vietnam War). Very untrue. My ship was loaded with people of this age as were a ton of draftees and volunteers in other military services.Generations X,Y, Z and the Others
And according to this article I am a "Post-War Cohort". A term that is inaccurate and one I've never heard before. This age group contains people born before WWII, during WWII and shortly following WWII so the title is meaningless.

Carol Doda did (if you were close to the SF Bay Area). Not on the same level as Elvis but.....
That's what I meant about the declining level of mores over the past half century.
Excellent point. I'm one year into Boomer II and missed having my draft number called in '74 by thatmuch.
C'mon, Tuna. Carol Doda was a stripper, not a pop star. The closest she came to pop music was a cameo in the Monkees' movie, HEAD (which virtually no one saw).

As for the Monkees, you're on your own.
