Why so negative?

By now, most of you would have seen Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra's new single - 'I can't make you love me.' For those who haven't here you go,



What appalled me were spiteful comments on youtube page about how bad a singer she is or "she is just trying to be western", or something like "she should stick to her bad acting" and one even called her the "Indian Rebecca Black". Now, I didn't go gaga over the song but c'mon it's much better than a lot of trash we like and popularize. She's trying to do something out of the ordinary, not a lot of actresses would even dare think about breaking into the American pop scene. We are all creatures of habit and if something new hits us, our first reaction is negative. Why, I ask?
Kudos to her for breaking out of the mould. I might not be in love with the act, but I appreciate the thought. Watch this interview of Priyanka's on the American show, Nightline. Priyanka says, "I am just taking a chance." Well, since when has taking a chance become a reason to be ridiculed. Don't we all do so?
