Why she might be annoying:

    She sometimes goes by her full name, sometimes by a single name.
    She was bulimic.
    She is a big Pokeman fan.
    She had trouble following the results at Eurovision because had not brought her glasses and could not read the scoreboard.
    She was accused of ‘appropriating’ Japanese culture in her Eurovision performance, including wearing a kimono and using maneki-neko (beckoning cat) figures as stage decorations.

Why she might not be annoying:

    Growing up, she was teased about her weight.
    ‘The Independent’ described her style as ‘a compelling blend of Bjork, Yelle and M.I.A.’
    The official video for ‘Toy’ was viewed over 29 million times on YouTube.
    She said, ‘My message is that you don’t have to fit the normal standard model of how a person should look, think, talk and create in order to succeed. We’re only here for a minute — we better enjoy the ride.’
