At the moment, Ke$ha is a fairly hot (as in popular) singer whose annoyance factor starts with her gimmicky name and builds rapidly from there. Annoying isn’t necessarily the same thing as interesting, but lately Ke$ha has been insisting that she’s more than just a mind-blowingly abrasive party girl. She’s intelligent, hard-working, and she has deep, deep spiritual roots. You can tell by all the human body parts she drapes around herself:

I’m into energy. I recently went to see a past-life regressionist, who is also a psychic. I wear my placenta around my neck every day, because it’s supposed to give you second sight. I feel like I’ve had many lifetimes before.

Okay, now Dollar Sign’s piqued my interest. When she says “my placenta” does she mean one she produced or the one she grew in? If the latter, exactly how long did her mom keep this around before presenting it to her daughter? What’s the appropriate occasion for handing down a slightly used placenta? Is this like a hippie bat mitzvah or something? So many questions. Not enough to make me buy her album, but it got her some publicity and I suspect she’s been chasing that for many, many lifetimes.
