That dress is dreadful.

(53,339 posts)And that he meant it as an "expression of love" (didn't like to see Trump voters being slammed).
The news also noted that the wearer was covered in a large cloak or cape and remained covered up on the red carpet walk, exposing the dress only when she reached the photo area.

(25,853 posts)very many "celebrities" because I don't have a TV, and therefore miss out on a lot of (supposedly) important things, but even so. Who the hell is this person?
Not to mention, it's highly possible that once given her name, I still won't have a clue who she is.

(25,853 posts)for more than 8 years. When I moved to my current city, I decided not to purchase a TV, because I couldn't really afford it, and even if I could, I didn't want to pay for cable. I honestly thought this would be temporary, and that I'd acquire conventional TV after a while. But then I learned that I could watch most important things on the internet, such as breaking news, or political conventions, stuff like that. And I could watch lots of television shows on the internet. Okay, so I'm not completely au courant about current shows, but most people probably aren't either. Meanwhile, I can watch tons of stuff, and it hardly matters if I'm a bit behind on a lot of shows.
As a bit of an aside, the very best thing about not having conventional TV is that I see very few commercials. This is especially gratifying during an election seasons (OMG, no political ads! It does not get much better than that!) but is also nice all of the rest of the time. I've gotten so spoiled by no commercials, that I've completely given up turning on the TV in a hotel room. I used to do that, turn on the TV in my hotel room, regularly. But I'd always get quite annoyed by the many commercials, and after no more than 45 minutes would turn it off. How do people put up with all those commercials? Not viewing them means I'm also not as surrounded by messages to Buy! Buy! Buy! that most people are. Which, quite frankly, makes it much easier to live on my limited income.
Oh, and for what it's worth, this is the fourth time in my life (I'm 68, in case that matters) that I've been without TV. This most recent time I honestly thought of it as an experiment, and totally assumed I'd go back to regular TV/cable soon enough. But the longer I went without, the happier I was. It's not as though I miss significant news stories. Any time there is some sort of breaking news, the local stations usually go to live streaming. I honestly don't miss anything that matters.
So my advice to anyone reading is, kill your TV. Cut the cord from cable. Trust me, you won't miss it. And you'll actually be better off because you won't be trapped into what conventional stations feed you.
Shall I mention that it was several years after the death of Michael Jackson that I learned that every single network had gone to live coverage, as if the death of a second rate entertainer was really worth wall to wall coverage?
Meanwhile, I read lots of books. I hang out at various places on the internet, including DU. And, at the risk of tooting my own horn, I really am better informed than almost anyone else I know.
So kill your TV. It will be the best thing you will ever do.

SaschaHM
(2,897 posts)Many have to do something flashy or be pretty enough/marketable to earn that exposure.
This is ridiculous, but it terms of thirsty things that musicians/actors do to get their name out their, it's very very low on the list.

I've never heard of this individual before.

As I said in an earlier reply here, she's just a publicity hound.

She must want attention as badly as SCROTUS does.

(41,976 posts)I will google her I guess. That's a hairy-butt ugly dress tho' and she just looks like a nutjob.
On edit just went to her website and listened to a couple of songs---Ick.

highplainsdem
(48,974 posts)Says she was "once Grammy considered in recent years." Uh-huh. In her dreams. If there was anything real to that, there'd be some facts.
But she's figured out that the way to get attention this year, and sympathy frosm Trump's idiot supporters, is to wear a MAGA dress.

(5,311 posts)...you have something released within the specified beginning/ending dates, and you are a voting member of NARAS.
Or, you may be "considered" if you are not a voting member, but on a label that can enter your project on the first round of voting, which determines the nominees for the final ballot.
Additionally, your release(s) must also be commercially available for consumption by the general public, and you must provide the proof for that.
I know because I'm a 25 year voting member of NARAS (Producers & Engineers Wing), and I was more than "once Grammy considered" over the last quarter century.
That said, never heard of this woman before tonight - thanks DU.

(50,557 posts)She has:
one video, posted today, of her singing "We Are The Champions" with a guitar as accompaniment. Sounded okay, but nothing super special. Tons of MAGA! comments though.
One "official music video" of her made up as a woman in traditional costume from India, which is kinda culturally insensitive. I couldn't tell you the name of the song tho; it was pretty forgettable.
One "how not to be bullied as a performing artist" video that said absolutely nothing about showing up to a party full of liberals in a Trump-themed dress.
Lots of videos of her trolling various awards shows.
One "official music video" of a song entitled "Empty." Which is what the file should have been. The song sucked and her "heavy black eye shadow and black lips" makeup was even worse.
I'd say we can safely ignore this one and carry on with more important things like, did you assholes in the Republican party really put a Russian double agent in the White House, and when are you going to remove him?
