While people are moaning, Glenn Gould did the same thing. I've always had an ambivalent feeling about celebrity culture. Something that my brother and I used to comment on was that politicians are celebrities in Aotearoa. So, in leading my radical left party, I've become even more of a public figure than as an artivist. Fucking sucks! Well, it's not great... eavesdropping isn't fun after my eavesdroppings turned up in Just Like Yesterday. I love music, but it's not my entire thing. People keep expecting me to be either an androgynous rock star or a drag queen, and I'm not really either. Shoegaze queen.
