Raise Your Cellphones in the Air

Gone are the days of burning your thumb holding up your lighter at a concert (except maybe a metal concert). Trendspotters at Blue Fusion point out that at the MTV Awards, teens were holding up their lighted cell phones as their favorite singers performed.
They also point out the move towards "individualism" as evidenced by stars wearing custom t-shirts like Britney Spears' "Mrs. Federline" shirt and Jessica Simpson's "I Love Nick" shirt and teens downloading custom ringtones, cell phones and shoes. There is even a Web site where you can order your own custom t-shirts.

Reminds me of a Simpson’s episode where Mr. Burns bought the bankrupted church…
Lisa: What are they doing to the church!?
Woman: We're rebranding it. We prefer a faith
based emporium teeming with impulse buy items.
