oh god! thats pretty shocking...

i hope she had her tetanus shot

Yeah I agree that this attitude is poor journalism, but the interview as a whole is well questioned and is actually quite good other than this bit of conflict.

I would have to say the problem is mistaking musicians as just celebrities, which seems to warrant the an assumption that we are entitled to know every rumour about, instead of actual artists who should be questioned about the motives and emotions behind their work, not their public/private persona.

The problem plain in this interview stems from this mistake which seems prominent as the general attitude in this type of journalism.

YAY on my first sift, though!
