Well, while I am not all that enamored with her music, unlike stone_birds, I can appreciate her from a cultural standpoint... she is very unique, and very much a product of the information / image age we are subject to in 2010... only a culture like ours could make an icon of a costume wearing, image shifting, somewhat neutral emotionally figure... To a degree she really makes us stand back from the norms of society and analyse things a bit more, especially through the use of the visual aspect of her music / image. To some degree she is almost a parody of our image - based culture.

And I do enjoy her sarcasm in interviews. That's kinda cool.

So in a weird way I actually kinda like her for everything but her music...
