| 50% (3) | Madonna, people have been drawing her (and drawing from) her image forever, people have made ads with her and turned her name and face into a symbol, and now i think she goes around more or less as someone pretending to be herself | |
|---|---|---|
| 66% (4) | Avril, come on: teen dream, skater-punk, rock chick, depressed princess - this girl is scaling through her options and can easily become an icon (what next, hip hop hoochyma meets grunge or death metal? we're waiting..) |
