It is disturbing though that she allowed herself to be photographed like that after giving in. I bet she's not exactly happy with them!<BR/><BR/>On another note, I do like her music (I have her album).

The really obvious garbage is tough enough to fight. The subtle stuff is next to impossible. On one hand, is escapes the notice of many. OTOH, when you recognize it, your concerns are trivialized by even "well-meaning" people.spotted elephanthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17681544565260222585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20700565.post-1148327141954733922006-05-22T20:45:00.000+01:002006-05-22T20:45:00.000+01:00'Layers and layers of perception'.Yup, it's the on...'Layers and layers of perception'.<BR/><BR/>Yup, it's the onion effect alright.
