I loved her "do research" comment even less. I thought maybe it's just me who was tired of her mess.

That interview annoyed the piss out of me too, not only for her clueless comments about how much she was "celebrating" Japanese women but for her generally vacuous attitude. Why the hell did BUST think she was cover-worthy?Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03013628807611348775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17042141.post-88577018454597353032007-04-01T16:54:00.000+02:002007-04-01T16:54:00.000+02:00great job!great job!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17042141.post-39298780459372686342007-03-31T16:46:00.000+02:002007-03-31T16:46:00.000+02:00Good call on the cultural appropriation comment. ...Good call on the cultural appropriation comment.
