You’re eating Cracker Jacks because they’re good. You’re pissed off because at first glance, you think there’s no prize inside. Upon further examination, you locate scroll, emblazoned with a code that will permanently change any British rock star you select into an American rock star. Who do you try it out on, and what’s the first difference you notice?

First!!
Cory | 3/13/2007, 11:00 am EST
I would have to say Madonna. Wait…what? She’s not British? Then how do you explain the accent?
Cory | 3/13/2007, 11:01 am EST
Oh, I get it. Madonna’s not British. She’s just pretentious.
myspace.com/15keys | 3/13/2007, 11:05 am EST
i would change Elton John……. and when he is transformed he looks like…………. Billy Joel!
lik roper | 3/13/2007, 11:43 am EST
them cracker jackers need to add more peanuts…
Oddjob | 3/13/2007, 11:58 am EST
What kind of question is this?
Buster C | 3/13/2007, 12:13 pm EST
Joe Cocker would be Merle Haggard
LT | 3/13/2007, 12:29 pm EST
I’d turn Eric Burdon into an American black man. That’s what he’s always wanted to be.
yoharryo | 3/13/2007, 12:41 pm EST
The Def Leppard guys…nothing at all would change.
Mr. Dart | 3/13/2007, 12:59 pm EST
I’d wonder how come Gary Glitter turned in to Michael Jackson.
PCL | 3/13/2007, 1:13 pm EST
I would change the Gallahger(Sp?) brother Noel and Liem. They would become the Van Halen brothers, sans talent.
Angel | 3/13/2007, 2:23 pm EST
Fuck English and American. Here’s a good test for you all out there. Take your favorite male performer, turn him into a girl. Still like the music? I agree Courtney Love is an egregious bitch, but really the only difference between her and Eddie Van Halen is the whole genitalia thing. Sexism is sexism.
Klaatu | 3/13/2007, 2:34 pm EST
Michael Stipe
oh, wait. never mind.
Klaatu | 3/13/2007, 2:35 pm EST
The really funny thing about this question is that many brits choose to become Americans because of the taxes over there.
Ouroboros | 3/13/2007, 3:59 pm EST
Could we do it the other way? (Transform all American rock stars into British.)
peter lacount | 3/13/2007, 4:06 pm EST
doherty
DT | 3/13/2007, 5:13 pm EST
The oasis Brothers. Their lower class upbringing in America instead of britain turns them either into death metal losers or nashville pop country yoekels. thanks for passing of a class based society ro us fuckin limeyes
John | 3/13/2007, 8:13 pm EST
Chris Martin would become an American & becomes a bigger asshole than he already is.
irs_agent | 3/14/2007, 7:46 am EST
Are there any British rock stars? I thought they were all living in the USA anyway, dodging Brit taxes and jonesing for eel pie….
Jesse | 3/14/2007, 11:43 am EST
Jimmy Page becomes Jack White!
Martin | 3/14/2007, 3:44 pm EST
Pete Doherty; followed closely by a shotgun-related mishap.
T. Rex | 3/14/2007, 5:20 pm EST
I’d turn hilary clinton from a southern dame with an accent to a shrill control freak new yorker….oh wait, it just depends on where she’s speaking. never mind.
KEITHMOON | 3/16/2007, 6:35 am EST
Well, I tried it myself but had to come back to England when Pete wanted to record another album.
Katie | 3/23/2007, 9:00 pm EST
i’d turn Johnny rotten from an arrogant, uncooth, violent englishman who says loo (as in bathroom) to an arrogant, uncooth violent american who says can
Glovy | 3/29/2007, 2:08 pm EST
I would like to turn Jane swallow who has posted ‘First!!’ on these polls, into a well informed person with an oppinion they’d like to post.
