i absolutely love people who don't settle, and spend the entirety of their life using every facet of their abilities. these two women are two such figures who i greatly admire and look up to.
lily allen: is a british singer/songwriter who's brutally honest lyrics depict life that we all assimilate with but would never write a song about. she goes there. she designs clothes. she defends politics. she's fantastic. its truly beautiful, legitimately talented people like this who are honestly out to spread the good word, that make we wonder why people like Taylor Swift are famous...
charlotte gainsbourg: singer/songwriter/film star/french/model/need i say more? her music is very alternative and she's had the honor of working with amazing talent in both European and American circuit (most recently Beck on her latest album). i found her not only frequently modeling in VOGUE with her sister, but also starring in one of my favorite autobiographical films I'm Not There (the many "lives" of Bob Dylan). she played the girlfriend and eventual wife of Heath Ledger, who was portraying the high fame era's of Bob Dylan's life. (sidebar: see that film...Heath Ledger, Cate Blanchet, Richard Gere, the list goes on...its fantastic, as is the soundtrack)
love you ladies.
