Bit O' Ditto


The latest addition to my "Musicians/Style Icons Whom I Adore" series of posts is none other than Beth Ditto, the ample-framed lead singer of the electro-rock group Gossip.

(And I think it's safe to say that Beth has transformed her body into a work of art on more than one occasion.)

But if you're still not a believer in the magic that this woman weaves, here are a few parting shots:


Bitches. Bow. Down.
