Is Sheryl Crow destined to be famous just for being famous? Sure
she's had a few great tunes, but what has this nine-time Grammy winning singer
produced in the past ten years that hasn't been painfully hard to watch. I
don't need to remind you of her Kid Rock team-up Lance Armstrong break-up smeared
across the tabloids.
Recently Crow wrapped up her Global
Warming Tour all while she's busy being the Revlon Colorist spokesperson. Excuse
me? Not only does her mega tour bus featured in the Revlon commercial likely
contribute more carbon emissions than a small community of vehicles, but her Revlon
stylist looks like he's gunning to win a prize for most ozone used in a
hairspray commercial.
Can a true environmentalist justify the amount of harmful
chemicals washed down the sink after a home dye job? What about eco-friendly
make-up? Seems to me Sheryl Crow's more worried about gray roots than
grassroots. The only place where Crow is likely not making a big footprint is
her diet - someone give that girl a burger!
Next time you wanna share your fabulous hair coloring tips with
us Sheryl, why don't you just go out and soak up the sun. It is, after all,
still free.
In an interview yesterday Crow said, "I have spent the
better part of this tour trying to come up with easy ways for us all to become
a part of the solution to global warming."
Her solution: ration your toilet paper! That's right, one
square each and the world becomes a better place to live.
Thanks Sheryl, I'll have remember to bring along my bottle
of Purel when I shake your hand for saving the world.
