She doesn't dance around half naked and her brain actually functions.


Both are problems 4 the industry.



Maybe I'm just getting old, but I only listen to music made by people fully clothed with functioning brain cells. Their music makes more sense than the video sluts. I mean ... new TALENT.

People don't relate to her lyrics about aliens and androids and shit. The only thing she's known for is always wearing black and white. She did that to herself.

About the bolded part--for a long time all I knew about the White Stripes was that they wore red, white, and black. So she might overcome that, WHEN SHE HAS A HIT!

Of course, now that she's collaborated with Prince, that will probably never happen. biggrin
