Jordin Sparks has no regrets about defending the Jonas Brothers while at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday (September 7).
You might recall after host Russell Brand made a few jokes about the Jonas purity rings, Jordin came out and said “I just have one thing to say about promise rings. It’s not bad to wear a promise ring, because not everybody – guy or girl – wants to be a slut.”
Speaking to EW the 18-year-old says, “I wish I would’ve worded it differently – that somebody who doesn’t wear a promise ring isn’t necessarily a slut – but I can’t take it back now, It was a split-second thing, and it came out kind of wrong. Still, I don’t regret it.”
She then goes on to say she has no bad feelings towards Brand, “I have nothing against him at all,” she said.
So did you all watch the 2008 Video Music Awards last night?
We did and our highlights were Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and thats about it really.
So tell us your thoughts on Jordin Sparks little rant over purity rings (earlier in the night, host Russell Brand made a joke about the Jonas Brothers and their purity rings).
Jordin didn’t take it lightly and had to share her thoughts, she said “I just have one thing to say about promise rings. It’s not bad to wear a promise ring, because not everybody – guy or girl – wants to be a slut.”
Later in the evening, Brand apologized and said “I don’t want to piss off teenage fans. Promise rings, I’m well up for it. But a bit of sex, it never hurt anybody.”
Jordin Sparks is hoping to record a duet with Bleeding Love singer Leona Lewis, even though Lewis knocked her off the number one spot on the billboard charts.
She says, “I met Leona right after she won The X Factor. We were recording in the same studio in the States and we got to hang out.
“It was cool because we both understood what the other one was going through and so shared a bond. I’m really proud and happy for her - even though Bleeding Love kept No Air off the No 1 spot back home. I haven’t seen her for a couple of months but maybe we could do something together one day. There are a lot of people I’d love to work with and she’d be one.”
Tell us would you like to see a duet with Sparks and Lewis?
