Jill Sobule is a singer/songwriter who has been singing and touring longer than Kate Perry has been alive. If you like Tori Amos so much, how do you not know Jill Sobule??? Katy Perry is an untalented puppet who just does what the record company tells her. Her songs are uncreative and formulaic. Get some taste!
Uhm... I see a lot of speculation here on Tori's motives. No one knows why Tori did it the way she did. A real mother and grandmother, who loved and cared for her child and grandchildren, would have handled this privately. Real simple... "Though I would love to attend Stella's birthday party, I would prefer my first meeting with my grandchildren to be private. You and I have things we need to talk about, and I would like to keep these things amongst family, rather than televise them to the world."
HOW HARD IS THAT????
