^ Yeah she really does. They are like refreshing after being asked the same questions over and over again. I'm not sure about you, but I got interviewed about 5 times and they all asked basically the same questions, apart from her. That was amazing XD.

Am I hallucinating, or isn't Brigitte also the one who sat outside an arena once with a sign, requesting an interview that she'd been trying to get for six months, and Gerard decided to grant it in the hopes that her questions would be more interesting than any of the ones he'd been asked all day that day, and he gave her a great interview too, but she blew it in the eleventh hour by responding this way to G's remark that "Any of the other guys would've done the same thing" with "Well I really only wanted you, because you write all the songs." Wasn't that her? Someone told me that it was. If so, she will always equal epic fail no matter how much she tries to redeem herself in the future as far as I'm concerned. Do your homework, Brigitte, and learn some manners!

i'm not sure, i've never heard that about her :/
and as far as i know, the brigitte we met yesterday hasn't said anything like that in any of her interviews with him.
she doesn't seem like the sort of person who'd say something that stupid x]
edit:
apologies, i just heard the interview again and she did say it, but not in the way that you said. She doesn't say it rudely at all.
It sounded to me that she meant it as a question, and he corrected her politely, stating that it was a common misconseption made by a lot of people.
He obviously didn't see it as a big deal, as hes done two more interviews with her since.
apologies again, she just really doesn't seem like the type of person who would say something like that because she hadn't bothered to research them, it sounded like a genuine mistake.
Neither of these bring up anything to do with the protest when I click on them. The first is an article from 1915, and the second is just a blank page with ABC at the top of the page...do you know what's happened?

Anonymous were the best part of this to be honest
The dance-off ruled, fuck, those two kids could dance!
And the conga line was awesome
I'm so pissed I left before Brigitte arrived. Damn my timing.
Ooh, also a friend of mine just told me the protest was on Channel 4 News
Didn't say what they said though

aha the conga line was bizarre XD
by the end i was so confused as to whether they were still against us or not :/
the dance off was pretty awesome though!
i knew channel 4 were there but didn't see it on tv :[
The fandom isn't falling apart, it's coming together.
Make me cry more happy tears...
Oh.
My.
God.
I've said it before, and I shall say it again;
I've never been more proud to be a fucking My Chemical Romance fan...

Whether it was her or not her, and the fact that he was nice about it has nothing to do with anything - Gerard is always nice. She said herself she'd been trying to get that interview for six months - that is ample time to properly arm yourself with the correct information about your subject, and the fact that she said it in what you deem to be a nice tone of voice does not make it any less of a slight toward the other four bandmembers, and it is in fact a very ignorant "mistake" to make - what band that you know of has only one guy writing, and everyone sitting around like trained monkeys?
I feel perfectly justified in making these harsh remarks, because I do what she does, and I will stay up all night if I have to to be very sure that I am not asking stupid questions or ones that have been asked a million times before. And if it IS her, how do you know Taste-It TV doesn't write her questions for her?

I didn't mean that it wasn't insulting to the other band members, just that she probably didn't mean for it to be.
I agree with you that six months is ample time but it was only one thing she got wrong, granted it was a big and slightly obvious thing, it was still only one thing and i don't see why she can't be forgiven for one mistake. The rest of her questions are accurate and still a lot more interesting than what My Chem are usually asked. The way you said it was as though she was deliberately rude about the other four guys, and i just thought that was slightly unjustified.
She is a really good interviewer and i think it's a shame that your opinion on her is based solely on one mistake.
this is way off topic, i'm sorry if i offended you at all and....agree to disagree?
I'm really proud to be an MCR fan right now. Yesterday I was playing a show with my band and I wondered how things were going overseas with the protest. I sang along to my MCR cd's before we went to play so I could warm up, and it made me think of the protest.
I'm so happy it went well. Cheers everyone! <3 <3

Fans singing, the dance-off with Anonymous and the conga line
Best parts of the day in my humble opinion
Sorry the video quality sucks, my phone is lame

I didn't say she said it in any particular way, I just said that she said it. I don't view that comment as a "mistake," I view it as a gross lack of professionalism - something I take very seriously as I am in he same field. It sounds to me like - no offense - you are giving her the pass because you like her, so I could argue that your opinion is also skewed. We can agree to disagree, sure, but I am going to continue to call things as I see them.
Nothing personal against you, however
Yes, we are off topic, so let's get back on topic: anyone find ANYthing about the supposed CNN interview?

After reading that post about MCR knowing about the protest, I just got so hyper! I'm so glad the boys saw your (the UK fans) efforts! I am extremely happy to be a My Chemical Romance fan! Although I couldn't make it to the protest, as I live in the US, I protested where I live; and I'm very proud of everyone who protested in the UK! You guys voiced your beliefs and made a difference. Good job you guys! :>
