Shiny and sheer silver metallic tops that accentuate your nipples will only get you so far, apparently.

Seriously fuck her....I guess she couldn't get her hands on the 20K for her coke habit and she wanted the world to know how jealous she is of the winner.
This woman is really the lowest in a million ways.

Some of the hate may come from the fact that Haines is notoriously uncool to people.

She's amazing. She's been nothing but gracious to long-time fans and has gone out of her way to accommodate them. LEAVE EMILY HAINES ALONE!

She used to be one of the rotten ones, and I liked her for that. Now she's all gone, got her make up on and she's not coming back. Can't she come back?

And one of her bandmates is named Torquemada!

I'd do her no matter how famous, infamous, rich, poor, or untalented she was, is or will be.
