Beth Ditto - A punk feminist who does not wear deodorant

People do not stop talking about Beth Ditto. Maybe because the name of her band is "The Gossip". Or perhaps because she used to eat squirrels as a child, or because she is lesbian, obese, wears tight clothes and does not stop stripping for magazines... or because she is a termagant, she bears a striking resemblance to Kelly Osbourne, she is often photographed half naked during her shows or drunk on the streets, or because she launched her own line of clothes...

 

I do not care much about this! In fact I did not like this Beth Ditto character at all but I had not heard the girl singing yet...

 

Did you ever listen to a Gossip song? I mean the first Gossip style, when they were self produced or produced by KillRockStars? I have not heard such a determination and style in years and yes, I am proud to confirm that the Gossip is the best band since the times of Bikini Kill, Hole and Babes in Toyland, and that music is not dead even if they are trying hard to kill it !

Beth Who? 

Is Beth Ditto a new kind of riot girl? Or is she just a fake character built to impress the public? Beware : at first, you might not like Beth Ditto. Her attitude is too strong for some. Then you hear her divine voice, and you cannot help getting the whole "Gossip" discography. Now Beth Ditto has been elevated to Queen Status, such as Courtney Love, Cyndi Lauper or Kathleen Hanna.

Check out The Gossip's new single "Love Long Distance" below!

    Sounds like an interesting young woman. Will certainly never go unnoticed. Have to admit I've never heard of her - but then I'm middle aged and live in New Zealand - perhaps she hasn't "got" to us yet.
