Spurned on by my French techno phase, I recently heard of this girl called Yelle (yeah + elle). She is sweet in a weirdo French way, and some of the remixes of her songs are pretty hot. She has a great song about some other male French pop star and how she wants him to do porn so everyone can see his small dick. A reporter asked: What did Cuizinier do that made you want sing about him having a small dick? Yelle: Nothing. I didn’t even know him. It was just funny to do a track about someone who represented French pimp rappers. About Lil Kim she says "Her face is like a monster. She’s a complete mutant. She arrived and everybody was like who is this girl?"
I love her. So then I'm watching the Gauntlet reunion the other night and there was a bumper ad with a Yelle video. And I caught about a 5 minute segment of the Hills the other night where they used her song "A Cause Des Garcons". Ugh. Now I'll have to listen to 16 year old girls talk about girl power again. I hate MTV sometimes. They ruin everything good and turn shit into "music".

OMG! How AMAZING was the Gauntlet reunion?!?!? too bad Beth wasn't there :(
i just watched Subterranean from last week, and they showed the Yelle video for "A Cause Des Garcons". It was total europop amazingness. Good call on this find.
i learned about Yelly from MTV and i think i'm going to get into her and not feel ashamed.
i loved watching Coral call out Evelyn on the reunion -- and Evelyn skirt the question of Brooke dating Eve's exgirlfriend! you can tell Evelyn cries a lot on the inside :)
