Josie and the Pussycats: Blueprint of the Mind Control Music Industry

Source: vigilantcitizen.com

“Josie and the Pussycats” is a “girl-band” flick aimed at children and young adolescents. At first glance, the movie seems to be one of those generic and God-awful teen movies, but on closer look, its overall tone and message is in sharp contrast to its peers. “Josie and the Pussycats” is indeed an acerbic criticism of a morally bankrupt music business. The most surprising fact about this 2001 movie is its frighteningly accurate predictions regarding today’s pop music and its Illuminati agenda: mind controlled artists, hypnotized masses, subliminal messages, its all there. We will look at the movie’s themes and see how they relate to today’s context.

Josie and the Pussycats was released by 2001 Universal. In music business terms, 2001 was ages ago. Just to put you back in the context of this era, N’Sync were still singing Bye Bye Bye, Cisco wanted to see your thong-th-thong-thong-thong and everybody was wondering Who Left the Dogs Out. Teens were going crazy for boy bands such as the Backstreet Boys and everybody was dancing to Ja Rule. So yes, it was a long time ago.

Josie and the Pussycats came out during this era, but it also seemed to forebode the death of this era. The movie actually starts with the killing of members of a Backstreet Boys-type group named “Du Jour” in a “forced” plane crash. The group is then replaced by a girl band with a semi-punky attitude and non-threatening pop rock music. This pretty much reflects what actually happened in the years following the release of this movie: N’Sync and the Backstreet Boys disappeared from the pre-teen music market and were replaced by Miley Cyrus, Hilary Duff, the Jonas Brothers and so on.

The Jonas Brothers’ semi-punky attitude and non-threatening pop rock music replaced the Backstreet Boys. They’re the male Josie and the Pussycats.

Despite the movie’s apparent light-hearteness, it manages to pack a harsh and sustained criticism of the music business. It is also quite severe regarding the state of America’s youth. Teens and pre-teens are indeed constantly depicted as a herd of brainless drones who are incapable of independent thinking and prone to hysteria.

But behind the usual “OMG these big corporations are so corporationny” criticism, Josie and the Pussycats tackles, in an odd and humorous way,  some of the darker sides of the music industry such as the mind control of the masses, the mind control of artists artists by the industry and even the assassination of artists who ask too many questions or rebel  Let’s look at the themes of the movie and see how they relate to the Illuminati music industry.

The Boy band that Knew Too Much

As stated above, the movie starts with the boy band Du Jour, a spoof of the Backstreet Boys, enjoying their enormous success. In their private jet, the vain and half-witted group of singers complain about petty things to their record executive Wyatt, who acts more as a legal guardian or, in mind control terms, a handler.

The band then asks Wyatt about strange sounds they heard in the acapella tracks of their latest song…and they want some answers.

Du Jour asking their exec Wyatt the purpose of the weird background track found on their latest song.

Wyatt’s answer is quite a harsh one. Him and the plane’s pilot strap on  parachutes and jump off the plane, leaving Du Jour to die in – what will then be called – an accidental plane crash. It is a known fact that artists who start uncovering the darker side of things,who ask too much questions or, worse, plan to reveal these things to the public are often dropped, publicly destroyed or, as in this case, killed.

Mega Records

Du Jour were signed with the world’s biggest record label, Mega Records. We soon learn that the company is much more than a record label.

Mega Records is, in fact, “in business” with the American government and the FBI to brainwash the “most influential demographic in the entire population”: the youth. While giving a tour of the label’s headquarters to visitors from foreign countries (who are learning how its done), Fiona, the eccentric CEO of Mega Records says this:

“I’m sure you’re wondering why agent Kelly and the United States government would be so interested in what appears to be a record company. Well  I’m about to show you why”.

Fiona’s office then turns into an elevator and starts descending into a secret underground facility.

The label’s headquarters is, in fact, a control center for manipulating the minds of the American youth. It creates new fads, decides everything from “what clothes are in style to what slang is in vogue”. The ultimate goal is keep the youth spending money by constantly chasing temporary trends.

Reality is, of course, more complex then that. Trends are probably not created in an underground control center in New York city. There is however truth in this near-cartoonish depiction of the music business. The entertainment industry is indeed connected to “higher powers” (as personified in the movie by the FBI agent) in order to sell to the youth the economic elite’s agenda. Popular culture 0not only attempts to sell products and brands to the audience but also ideas, values and attitudes. In previous articles on the Vigilant Citizen, we have established that today’s agenda focuses on concepts such as transhumanism, Illuminati symbolism, premature sexualization, police state and so forth.

Continuing her tour, Fiona says:

“But how, you may ask, can our operation be so effective? Sure these kids have brains like play dough, just waiting to be molded into shape, but something else must be going on, right?”

Fiona then explains that her label inserts subliminal messages in pop music in order to manipulate the youth into buying products and ideas. So, the label goes beyond the simple advertising products. It conceals in the music hidden messages that bypass the audience’s conscious minds in order to directly reach their subconscious.

After the presentation, a foreigner  asks Fiona “How can you control the rock bands? What if one them discovers you are placing hidden messages in their music?”. This is what she answers:

“Ever wonder why so many rock stars die in plane crashes? Overdosed on drugs? We’ve been doing this a long time. If they start to get too curious, our options are endless. Bankruptcies… shocking scandals…religious conversions! ”

There are numerous real life examples of celebrities who have been silenced, one of the most shocking and evident one being Michael Jackson. After decades of being controlled by the entertainment business, he attempted to break free in the late nineties. He was even speaking out about it (see the article “When Insiders Reveal the Ugly Side of the Entertainment Business“). Then ensued years of scandals, trials, public ridicule and financial difficulties. Michael Jackson still managed to keep singing and dancing, even organizing a world tour  for 2010.  Since previous attempts to destroy him failed,  MJ got silenced… by force. So, ten years after the release of that movie, shady celebrity sacrifices are still happening…and more than ever.

New 3D Technology

In an attempt to “take things to the next level”, Mega Records develops a new technology named “3DX Surround Sound”. This new technology “makes the music feel like it is happening all around you”. All the kids attending Josie and the Pussycat‘s concerts or watching them on TV will have to purchase this headgear in order to hear the music.

About ten years after the release of the movie, we are seeing the commercialization of a very similar technology….

3D glasses are the today’s hottest trend. They are required to view 3D movies, tv shows and video games. Will this 3D technology bring new brainwashing possibilities? You betcha.

Josie and the Pussycats: From Nobodies to Sex Kitten Programming Stars

After the killing of Du Jour, Wyatt, the record exec is instructed to find a band as soon as possible. The movie makes it clear that talent is absolutely irrelevant. The label just needs a good looking band band and it will take care of the rest. The we see the Pussycats…and their lack of fans.

The Pussycats performing in a bowling alley, with nobody listening to them. Most overnight successes start from humble beginnings, until the industry takes them, changes them and sells them to the public.

The rock band comprises three young ladies who sport leopard ears as a prop. It is quite obvious that nobody wants to hear their music and even their manager Alexander, apparently dislikes their music.

After hearing about Du Jour‘s plane crash on television, Josie is motivated to “get out there” and obtain a record contract. At the same time, Wyatt is driving around in the small town of Riverdale, looking for a band to sign. Then it happens.

Wyatt literally runs into the Pussycats crossing the street. Some dudes coincidentally walk behind them holding a sign saying “#1 Band in the World”. That’s pretty much all Wyatt needed to see to sign them.

Wyatt sits down with the girls and tells them how happy he is “to be sitting down with the Pussyhats”. He obviously knows nothing about the band and does not care. He then offers them a record contract with Mega Records. Josie wonders briefly why her band is being offered a contract by a label that did not even hear them play. Her hunger for fame however dispels all of her doubts and the band signs the contract.

The Pussycat‘s story is classic: a broke, struggling band attempts to become big by performing gigs; a record label offers a shady contract; the desperate and fame-hungry band signs, not knowing what they are getting in to. For the band, it’s either taking a chance and signing the contract or going back to eating Ramen noodles in a crappy apartment. So, they signed the contract.

Right after the signing, the group gets a make-over in order to “sexy them up”. The label also decides to change the group’s name from “The Pussycats” to “Josie and the Pussycats”. Josie and the Pussycats is now completely owned by the label. The group has lost control of its image, its name and even its music, as it has been modified to contain subliminal messages.

Mind Control

The movie also contains numerous hints to mind control programming. As we have stated in previous articles, numerous celebrities have been subject to mind control programming in order to manipulate them into fulfilling the wills of their handlers.

From wearing cute little kitty ears, the group is now draped in feline prints. This is a monarch programming meme signifying a subject’s beta programming, also known as Sex Kitten programming.

Monarch mind control includes numerous types of programming, one of them being Beta (or Sex Kitten programming). It is the type of programming that is the most used in the entertainment industry and it is coded with references to “pussycats” and feline print clothing. This might explain why the producers chose to base the girl band on the Archie Comic of the same name. The symbolism was just too perfect.

So, in less than a week, with the help subliminal messaging, the group produces a #1 hit and sells out a huge concert. The group even earns the honor to meet the label’s CEO, Fiona.

Fiona’s “hang out” room. Notice the painting on the left. Yes, this was years before the creation of the persona named Lady Gaga.

Fiona acts in a very strange, dissociative matter, as  if she were herself under some sort of mind control.

After the meeting, Fiona spies on the group using hidden cameras and learns that Melody and Valerie are creeped-out by her and flat out do not trust her. So she decides to do something we have often seen in the music business: keep the Josie, the star of the group and drop the other band members.

In order to carry out this operation, the label proceeds to use mind control on Josie by using subliminal messages in her own music.  The process completely changes her attitude and personality: from the sweet and down to earth girl, she became a attention hungry diva who turns against her friends. This entire scenario subtly describes the hidden, mind control aspect happening in the music business: label execs use mind control programming to create in Josie an alter persona they can control and manage at will.

Josie, in a dissociative state due to her mind control. Everything is “blurry” and “foggy” around her. She is completely dressed in feline prints, still representing her “sex kitten” programming.

Fortunately, Josie manages to snap out of her hypnotic state and learns everything about the 3D, mass mind control concert. Unfortunately,  her band mates Melody and Valerie have been kidnapped by the label and Josie must perform in the concert to avoid the “accidental killing” of her friends.

Fiona shows to Josie and the Pussycats a pre-taped segment of MTV News announcing the “accidental death” of Melody and Valery. This is a good example of media manipulation in order to protect the elite’s interests.

In Conclusion

The least we can say, Josie and the Pussycats is in odd movie. It harshly criticizes some aspects of the entertainment business while perpetuating more of the same. One example of this is the ridiculous amount of product placements in the movie.

As a running gag, the entire movie is filled with over-the-top product placements. Directors say no money was taken for these placements…

Some of those placements are actually hilarious (see the box of Tide above), but, at the same time, the movie actually perpetuates more of the same. Imagine me repeatedly punching someone  in the face. Then imagine a person coming to me and asking me to stop. Imagine me replying: “Can’t you see that I’m pushing this repeated punching to an absurd level? You’re obviously too dumb to get the second degree here. I’m actually denouncing violence! So sit there and ponder on violence in society while I resume my face pounding”.

The entire movie’s message actually gives me the same odd feeling. Its clever “behind-the-scenes” look of the music industry makes the viewers feel they’re ” in on the joke”, making them feel comfortable enough to let their guards down. However, at the end of the day, the young viewers are still the butt of the joke: all of the sleazy and gimmicky tactics are still used on the viewers in order to sell mind-control friendly music. Furthermore, the movie seems to a great deal of predictive programming by effectively foreshadowing the dark and manipulative turn pop music would take in the years 2000.

At the end of the movie, once Mega Record’s mass mind control plans have been uncovered by the band, the FBI (who has funded project) immediately sought to dissociate from the label and even arrests Fiona “on charges of conspiracy against the youth of America. The agent then  says to Fiona privately: “we were shutting down your entire project anyways…we found out that subliminal messages worked much better in movies!”. In other words, the biggest joke in the movie…is us.
