oh Leslie Hall, you silly thing. It's the gem sweater lady rapping away!
famous for her massive (400,000!) collection of nasty sparkle and applicay (sp?) "mom sweaters", leslie has branched out into the world of music videos! her unique take on all things "Americana" is something u will either hate or love. i say, love is all you need.
here's an audio only interview with her on NPR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYm9ntUfJa8
and then a bit from her bio on Wikipedia that pretty much sums it up:
Leslie first began displaying herself in "strangely glamorous and unflattering ways" while attending Ames High School in Iowa. During her senior year, she entered the homecoming parade, as part of a prom queen campaign, donning a sparkling pink Goodwill gown, a neck brace, and a tiara (won by her mother who was crowned Miss Auburn, Nebraska in 1970). Her publicity stunt made the front page of the local newspaper the following day. Her campaign was a success, and when springtime came, she was crowned queen. After graduating from high school, Hall moved to Boston, Massachusetts and completed her education at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in May 2006. Currently she resides in Ames and lives with her parents.
