<p align="center"><em>"My dream was to record my music." </em></p>
<p>Last week we watched as Kaya almost missed a gig and this week we watched her actually walk off stage when she refused to sing her sister's song. This turned into a $90,000 fine for Kaya and the band, a slew of public apologizes and Kaya having to give up a little part of who she is by caving to the music industry execs.</p>
<p>Kayaâ€™s childhood doesnâ€™t seem to have gone really smoothly. She watched as her mom ran off after a huge fight with her dad and her sister died in what seems to be a car crash...</p>
<p align="left">She's about 30 seconds away from being back in the good graces and she pulls a crazy stunt...walks off stage unwilling to continue with the fact apologies. JUST KIDDING!! Kaya runs back on stage and performs the way the label wants. But haunted by her sister's ghost backstage makes Kaya question her behavior, but ultimately she says "They want a rockstar, that's exactly what I'm going to give 'em."</p>
<p><img src="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/140x105a.jpg" title="Kaya" alt="Kaya" align="left" border="2" />What do girls do when they decide to live up to the rockstar stereotype -- they spend money... lots and lots of money! (I'm thinking this is <em>NOT </em>what Kaya's best friend/assistant was hired to do. First stop car shopping, next stop Rodeo Dr.  And I'm almost positive that she should not pay $500 for an old Aerosmith t-shirt AND change in the middle of the street. Someone seriously did not teach this girl about the paparazzi.</p>
<p>Welcome to the world of rockstars -- if the songs aren't good enough, you get someone else to write them. The band has refused to record any songs written by anyone other then themselves. My guess - they are seconds away from losing the contract. The demands: they want a new producer and will risk their contract to get rid of him.  Oh, and did I mention they were willing to lose the Dad-ager too?  The solution is simple -- T quits (so everyone is happy? everyone except the label.)</p>
<p><img src="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/140x1052.jpg" title="Carson Daly on Kaya" alt="Carson Daly on Kaya" align="left" border="2" />Vomiting in the bathroom just minutes before she needs to perform on Last Call with Carson Daly. She doesn't want her friend judging her, but personally, I think someone forgot to tell Kaya that being a rockstar means that everyone and their mother is going to judge you.</p>
<p>Wow, I actually want to jump into the screen and give this girl some PR and media training!! Goodness, has she learned nothing as far as dealing with the press? They really have come a long way from playing a quinceanera, there's still as naive though! It's a pretty well-known fact that if you drink too much, your voice will be shot the next day. So it was definitely a good idea to go boozing the night before you perform on national television. (sarcasm)</p>
<p>Kaya decides to take matters into her own hands. She needs to upstage her terrible performance.  Crossing Coldwater heads back to high school to perform for their high school's senior prom. While saving her career, she also gets to experience a little bit of the prom she never had -- back in the day she had missed her own prom for the quinceanera.</p>
<p>"Nothing a few drinks can't cure." Ah, the inspiring wisdom of a young rockstar.</p>

<p>"What makes people buy records? People buy records because they want to get laid." That's right! That is the wise advice from the high powered record producer for Kaya's brand new record. But I guess we need to learn who Kaya is. Kaya is a 21-year old rock new rock star. Crossing Coldwater fronted by Kaya has gone platinum basically overnight and now the young stars are having to deal with the pleasures and pressures of fame. Lets meet the band:<img src="http://remotecontrol.mtv.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/gunnar140x105.jpg" title="Gunner is the drummer and Kayaâ€™s ex." alt="Gunner is the drummer and Kayaâ€™s ex." align="left" border="2" />Gunnar is the drummer and Kaya's ex-boyfriend -- who seems to still be in love with her. Within minutes of moving into their brand new Hollywood pad, he starts putting the moves on his vulnerable ex.</p>
<p>The comic relief in the band is definitely Manny. He's always looking to clear the air and release the tension in his bandmates, especially with their new found fame. Although, it doesn't seem like even he can help when they learn the Kaya's slept with T, the bossy producer.</p>
<p>Then we've got the token bad-boy (::swoon::),Taylor. He's definitely the heart-breaker and his weakness is most definitely Kaya. (Who sees a problem arising?! I know I sure do!)</p>
<p>This week, they didn't waste any time in throwing us into the crazy, eff'd up work of Crossing Coldwater. Of course, Kaya's has a dadager (her dad is also her manager) who -- in true dadager fashion -- is running a fine line between business and personal life. He seems to be interested in furthering her career, but possibly with the demise of everything Kaya has worked for. Kaya's song about her younger sister, who was killed in a car accident, is just one example of how Kaya's creativity is being pushed aside by record execs in order to make the new album more "consumer friendly."</p>
<p>This seems to be how the music industry is run today! We've got the cookie-cutter artists who just do what they are told and then they go astray (ala Britney Spears) and then there's a big problem. Could this be the record label's fault, or is Kaya just being a tad over dramatic. We'll have to tune in next week to see what happens!</p>
