Kasabian Slam Girls Aloud

British rockers Kasabian have slammed pop group Girls Aloud for playing at UK rock event the V Festival - because the girl group aren't 'real' rock music.
The CUTT OFF stars are furious Girls Aloud played at the same festival - held in England at two sites in Stafford and Chelmsford - as more serious acts such as Radiohead.
And they were relieved when Girls Aloud covered the Kaiser Chiefs hit I PREDICT A RIOT rather than a Kasabian track.
Guitarist Serge Pizzorno says, "Girls Aloud should be nowhere near that festival. I'd have been devastated if they'd done one of our songs."

I hope no one will take this the wrong way ITs just I get an impression of something Im not judging or anything like that. I think its unfair what Kasabian said about Girls Aloud they are not actual rock or they are a different kind of rock but they could still play at the festival. I couldnt really explain it that much at the moment. Well may be I didnt get soemthing maybe theres a reason why they thought Girls Aloud were a different kind of music to the others may be I know they are but another reason why they thought their music was seen differetnly. They may have been soemthing else I didnt hear about it. Its not that Im saying anything else about Kasabian I think other people may agree with this
