I watched a little bit of the new MTV show Rock the Cradle today. The premise is simple: Take the unknown kids of famous, talented music stars and have them compete in an American Idol-style competition. As if being Kenny Loggins' son wasn't enough pressure in life.
Among the highlights (lowlights?) were Olivia Newton-John's daughter absolutely butchering INXS' "Never Tear Us Apart" and the son of '80s rocker Dee Snyder preparing to perform Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll" onstage. "Can I sing as good as Robert Plant?" he said. "No. But can I kick ass maybe a little better than Robert Plant? I think I can."
