William Beckett Working with Demi Lovato, Fans On Internet Are Angry

It was the Tweet heard 'round the scene: William Beckett of The Academy Is... has announced he collaborated with Disney star Demi Lovato on a song for her second album.

 

And of course, Williams fans reacted in a mature, sensible fashion.  Those that enjoy Demi's work commended him and those who are not her biggest fans were able to rationally handle the fact that William, an artist they enjoy, was working with someone they don't.

Oh, who am I kidding?  The internet went apeshit.

Keep in mind, awhile back Demi revealed that William is her celebrity crush, prompting William to record and release a video message for her. 

 

 

Well, apparently they did meet and William has co-written a song with Demi. 

 

 

Which seems like it should be awesome: both William and Demi are talented kids and, hey, how awesome would it be to work on something you love with your celebrity crush?  I mean, all I can say is that if Gerard Way showed up and said "Hey, what do you say we sit down and I'll read and critique that graphic novel script you've been working on?" I'd have a copy of said script printed out and in his hands in about .0000000000002 seconds.

However, apparently people have made their displeasure with the William-Demi collaboration very vocally heard on the internet.  To the point that William Twittered the following:

 

William wasn't the only one who had something to say on the subject.  Adam T. Siska, who has recently joined the Twitter craze, announced his feelings rather bluntly and in less than 140 characters:

 

Kiss his Twitterdick, indeed! 

However, in the interest of finding out what Buzznet thinks, I've set up a poll! Go share your feelings. Please.

Ummm. I don't exactly like Demi Lovato but if she's working will william then she is. Who are we to really tell him to not do something he wants to do? So screw it.

why do people hate on her just because shes a disney star? i love her and shes super talented. little TAI fangirls and whatnot need to get over it.

Heavens, two artists are working together on a song?? What will become of the world?!

Fair play to Demi Lovato and William Beckett, I hope it's a good song and that it'll bite all those little hater people in the ass. Hard.

Pretend Beckett is le crab:

Wow. I don't have a problem with it. Demi doesn't suck as much as certain other Disney stars do.
But you know what? It really doesn't matter whether or not it pisses people off. It's done. They're not going to un-write the song just because fangirls are unhappy.
Ooooh, collaborations are scary things.
She can learn from Billiam...and then her music can improve. Likewise, maybe some aspect of her work is something Billiam can take into consideration.
I, personally, am looking forward to hearing the song, just because I'm quite curious.

That was a really dumb thing to say. She can work with who she wants.
BAHAHAHHA man.

+ she's got a nice voice.
what the fuck does it matter that she's on disney channel.

I dont have problems with that.. I mean, It was a bit shocking that this two artist get together to make a song...but I love the academy is... for their music so any collaboration of them is a good thing....and i think that demi make good music and she doesnt seems like the typical poppy stereothype disney girl
I laugh a lot the other day because there are furious girls trashing demi, and its funny because I can bet that any of those girls would love to sing with him....I am not taking any part on this, im just showing my point of view, that all.

Some people should just learn how hide their displeasure.
Don't take it out on William.
And it's already said and done anyways, so there's really no point in complaining.

I think it is nice that William agreed to write a song with Demi. Hey, he isn't writting her whole album, it is just a song. Leave him alone!!!!

I didn't really think this was 'allowed' (not in a bitchy way)
Honestly, (no one kill me!) someday they'd make a cute couple.
p.s she's really lucky

Eh, Demi isin't my favorite disney girl in the world,but I can't be talking. I don't really know her. :/
I mean, disney people aren't my favorite people in the world, but it makes me feel guilty because I'm like judging them...
and I HATE when people judge me.

Her songs are good though, I must admit.

no use crying over spilled milk.
no, not like rosalie hale.: 04/14/2009 7:02 PM
godddd this reminds me of the madness that ensued when We The Kings took over radio disney.

lets face it, disney rules the world and their teen kings and queens get everything they want. including collaborations with their talented and amazing celeb crushes.

billvy obviously saw talent in her if he agreed to work with her. and i'd give demi a high five for keeping it together long enough to finish the song.

support his decision! and if this affects your beckett worship, then i guess you didn't think he was all that amazing anyway.
