Don't wanna be the 1st one to open a suspicious link Mr. Chang posted.

Just says Gabe's worth $3M

[ParkwayTom]

Uh... So?

[White]

Even more upsetting is Chris Brown being worth $21M.

Is anybody going to raise a big stink about the guy from fun., too? Or is it just this poor guy?

[steve187]

that could be somewhat accurate but these networth sites are really skewed

Lady Gaga stole Madonna's $125 million.

What's the story behind this?

There's no story, really. I just think this site's users in general are really hypocritcal when it comes to things like "selling out." Gabe starts a new band looking for mainstream appeal, has some success, and suddenly he's a pariah, the butt of every joke, etc. fun. does the same thing, appears on Glee, sells their songs to every corporation that can write them a check, does collabroations with Pink, etc, and they're lauded as heroes. Next year at this time somebody will bump this thread and Nate Ruess' $3-5 million net worth will be received with "dude deserves it." Why not Gabe?

I'm not even saying this as a fan of either band - I just don't get why one guy trying to be rich and famous is okay with everybody, but the other isn't.

I think it's because people think Gabe went into Cobra with the goal of becoming rich and famous, while Nate went into fun. to satisfy a creative hole after The Format.

[CollectiveConfusion]

^Could be. But didn't a bunch of articles come out that said they wrote Some Nights with the intention of "taking over the world?" Initially maybe fun. was created with more noble purposes but the newest record was written to be on the radio.

Again - not saying there's anything wrong with that - people like it, that's all that matters.

[daftpunker45]

I guess that's a lot more subtle than Good Girls Go Bad.

[CollectiveConfusion]

Is "Good Girls Go Bad" really any more or less subtle than "We Are Young"?

The fact that this thread exists makes me cry.
