Yes!!!!! She is so right! Americans nowadays do not raise their kids to be adults! I've said that so many times before. These kids are babied (if that's a word). That r not prepared for adulthood. And they think they love their kids by doing everything for them. So not true. Sorry for the tangent. But I love her! Her music is great!

its almost as if american popular culture is breeding this kind of dumb ass empty and materialistic women. you see, she's involved with the arts, and this gives her a different aura entirely

Fantastic musician, though the interviewer sounds absolutely bored by her youthful enthusiasm.
