[edit] NELLY FURTADO Timeline

I removed the Timeline of noteworthy events in Nelly Furtado's career section because all the events where already in the Biography section, not related to her career (birth of her daughter), or it wasn't given why they are noteworthy anyway. --Fritz S. 11:24, August 31, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Why Loose is called Loose

Right now the article says it was for the creative decisions going into it, but you'd have to be fooling yourself to not think there's a sexual aspect to the name, right? The Rolling Stone article only says that it was "in part" the creativity aspect. There's a USA Today article out now that says The title of Furtado's new CD was inspired by the trio TLC, whose members would adorn their clothes with condoms. "They were taking back their sexuality, showing they were complete women," Furtado says. "There was such a freshness to artists like them, or Mary J. Blige, who has such a strong voice and image. I miss that." I'm not a great editor yet but I'd be willing to try to insert this information into the article if no one else feels up to it USA Today article: http://www.usatoday.com/life/music/news/2006-07-13-female-singers_x.htm

[edit] Just a question

I heard somewhere that she was like the spokesperson for HIV testing... is this true?

[edit] Wrong generation

The first person to move to a new country is considered first generation. If Nelly was born in Victoria BC, she is in fact second generation canadian.

[edit] Nelly Record Company Switch

I notice that the article said she left Geffen for Arista Records. There is no source for this. I even google to see if this is true, but I couldn't find anything. Is this true. If so, I am sorry to erasing it. --User:beagle5589 10:36, 4 November 2008 (EST)
