The media portrays her as this "master of reinvention"... constantly changing up styles and all that. Fuck that. Emperor's new clothes. A different shade of eyeliner and a new hair-do and all of a sudden she's "on to that next wave." That's kack. Pure and simple. It's the fashion industry.

THE MOTHERFUCKING FASHION INDUSTRY.

Revolution is the only cure.
