Josie and the Pussycats Page #6
something to do with our music.
Why do you call it...
"our" music?
Becau...
Are you even listening?
I am listening
very carefully,
and do you know
what I'm hearing?
I'm hearing someone
glomming on to my talent...
and my credit.
"Our" music, Mel?
I basically write all of it.
Josie, no, you don't.
We write it together.
Oh, okay.
So if we're all doing
equal amounts ofwork,
why isn't the band called
Valerie and the Pussycats?
I knew it.
You've been thinking this
the whole time.
I'm just... I'm just
backup to you, huh?
Oh, but you're
a good, solid backup.
Oh, hey, Val,
who's a rock star?
Who's a rockstar?
I am!
Josie, don't do this.
We need to
stick together now.
Oh, my God.
Melody's gonna cry.
What's the matter,
snuggle bunny...
finally realizing
the world isn't all
sunshine and rainbows?
Stop it.
Not everyone gets
a happy ending, muffin.
Stop it.
And you wanna know what else?
Puppies turn into dogs...
who get old and die.
Someday you'll thank me.
Of course, by then
I won't be taking your calls.
You are the star! Val and
Melody are mean, evil girls!
You should have a solo career!
You have the number-one single
in the country!
They're trying to glom on to
your talent and your credit!
If they're doing
equal amounts ofwork,
why isn't the band called
Valerie and the Pussycats?
They're just dead weight,
Josie.
You could be huge without them.
You are the star.
Madonna huge.
Val and Melody are mean, evil girls.
Melody thinks you can't sing.
Seriously. She told me.
Dump them. The are trying
to destroy you, Josie.
You'll be better off
without them.
Who's a rock star?
You are!
A great big rock star!
Go, Josie, go! Go!
- Val!
- Oh, the return of the superstar!
What's going on?
And where are Mel and Val?
Since when you do you care?
Oh, and we heard what you said,
Bitchy McBitch.
- Wish I'd said it.
- They're gone, Josie.
They're gone,
and I hope you're happy.
No more band.
Just like the Beatles.
Just like the Jackson Five.
Just like a Flock of Seagulls.
- These are so good.
You want one of these?
- Okay, look,
I never thought
I would say this toyou,
ever, but, please...
would you help?
Now?
Now?
Wyatt gave me this CD
of our song,
and it was like
as soon as I heard it...
I don't know.
What... it sucked?
There's something on here,
I swear.
Okay, okay, okay.
You should have a solo career!
You could have your own
prime-time TV series!
We could call it Josie,
and run it right after
Will and Grace!
Oh, my God! That's
Mr. Moviefone! How did you
get him to put that on there?
You slept with him!
What are you talking about?
This is on our CD
It's underneath the music.
Wyatt put them on there...
to brainwash me.
Ooh, brainwashing!
Ooh, help!
We're being brainwashed!
Diet Coke's
the new Pepsi One.
"MS." Main... main system.
Music sequence?
Oh, God.
Maybe you broke it.
Whoa, I didn't touch it.
Josie and the Pussycats are
the best band ever!
Theyare totally jerkin '!
You must buy their CD
You have to see them in concert.
You also have to buy
Steve Madden shoes.
Heath Ledger is the new Matt Damon.
You're nobody without
an Abercrombie & Fitch vintage tee.
They're selling stuff
through our music.
Josie and the Pussycats are
the best band ever!
They're selling US through our music!
I knew there was a reason
you were so popular.
I want a vintage tee...
and Heath Ledger.
Oh, my God.
It's all my fault...
everything...
people dressing alike,
buying the same stuff.
I sold it to them.
I'm a trend pimp.
Well, it stops here!
I'm nobody's pimp,
and I'm not going to let Wyatt
and Fiona get away with this.
We're going to the police,
and we're taking this with us.
Are you guys gonna
help me or what?
Oh, I'll help.
Yeah, right.
'Cause you know I'm just gonna
let you walk right outta here
and spoil everything.
All right, now the event
I know everybody's been
waiting for is finally here.
One night only,
the worldwide live debut concert
of Josie and the Pussycats.
And, oh, very cool,
it's gonna be live
at the "Megarena"...
with a simultaneous
global web cast.
You can log on to mtv. com
for more details.
And remember:
You will not hear a thing
without your Josie
3-D-X headphones,
so I urge you all
to pick some up...
I know I bought two.
Hi!
Oh, look at the pouty girl.
Boo-hoo!
Well, you better
snap out of it, red, 'cause
you've got a show to put on!
Are you kidding?
I'm not gonna play, help you
send messages to those kids.
- Forget it. I'm done.
- Oh, look who's got all
principled all ofa sudden.
You didn't seem to mind when
your song went to number one!
You should kiss
my cellulite-free ass
for all I've done foryou.
I made you a rock star.
Tell me you don't love that.
I said forget it, all right?
Now, find yourself another girl.
Yeah, see, I would,
but everybody's already here!
- Josie! Josie!
- Too bad.
- Wyatt.
- Josie!
- Val, Mel!
- Don't talk to her.
You're wasting your time.
Miss Diva over here doesn't care
if you do something to us.
No, that's not true.
You guys, just listen to me.
I didn't mean
any of that stuff
that I said before.
Fiona and Wyatt have put
subliminal message tracks
underneath our music...
Can it, rusty.
Your story's boring.
Wyatt, why don't you show these
two lovely ladies what we have
for them this evening?
Gladly, my darling.
- A car!
Val, I won a car!
- No, you didn't win a car.
- Oh, my God, you won a car!
- No one won a car!
The car... is about to be
a part of history...
if you decide
not to play tonight.
Hi, I'm Serena Altschul
with MTV breaking news.
Josie and the Pussycats'
debut concert was
unexpectedly canceled...
when an automobile exploded
in the stadium parking lot.
The passengers were
identified as Valerie Brown
and Melody Valentine,
two of the founding members
of the popular rock band.
Investigators on the scene were
quoted a ssaying the two died
a slow, fiery death...
inside the four-wheeled
hell pit.
We're told that Josie will
be releasing a statement...
to the press within the hour
to comment on this tragedy.
Yes, Josie,
what are your comments?
We're all gagging to know.
Roast your friends,
or play the show?
Play your show?
Roast the friends?
What's it to be?
All right!
I'll play.
See, Val?
She still likes us!
Mel, of course I do.
You guys are my best friends
on the planet.
Look, I know that friends
don't treat each other
the way I treated you guys.
But you've got to believe me.
If I could just go back in time,
I would take it all back.
That would be cool.
If I could go back in time,
I'd wanna meet Snoopy.
Mel, I love that about you!
I love that you think
that everything is possible...
and that this world is
such a great place,
because you know what?
It is.
And I'm so sorry if,
for one second, I made you
think that it wasn't.
And Val... Val,
