Week 9: Mashup Articles

A musician whose hooky dance tunes would barely rate a second playing on karaoke night, yet who made it all but impossible to avert one's gaze from her ongoing spectacle. She immediately displayed enormous talent. Her passion to keep going and her attention to detail set her way, way apart from anything the majority of her contemporaries could produce. Her synth-pop music help explain why she is rated No.3 in Billboard's annual recap of Top Artist of the year and why her name is among those most often searched on the Web. More than an ordinary pop star of fashion muse, she devoted her life to making sure all our lives are better. She became involved with a project sponsored by Habitat for Humanity, building approximately 65 new homes for the vitims of terrible tragedy. With her in your corner, you are no longer a victim. Her ability and track record have earned her unprecedented trust. Take for example the book movement she created. Book stores sell out of novels shortly after hitting the shelves solely due to the fact that she recommended them on her show. Whatever she touches, it seems to turn to gold right before our very eyes. She is particularly good on a broad basis, in that she can work on anything. There will be a time when there would be "new categories of people" being "put up there" as stars. She is rigged for that stardom. She is a real life avatar.
