"Yeah, but you gotta understand that her whole life has been a con job."

I don't really feel that's been the case, but at this point I don't believe her music or performances are really inspired, rather they are just milking the cash cow - so basically we agree about that part.

If she still really feels the need (at this point - after having been so enormously influential) to remain 'relevant', it casts her as a bit insecure. It may be that I'm totally wrong, and her awful accent is perfectly normal and not at all a put-on, but I still hate it!
