People are a Trip #21: Kathleen Hanna and Idols

[sooperheep]

KH is the only one who gets to talk like a bratty teenage Val! All you other girls, TALK NORMAL!

[piemakesmelol]

You inspired Kurt to write the anthem for a generation....you rule!!!

[lilkush909]

i hate it when i read these comments abt kathleen viewed by men as something to have sex with. shes a feminist and a lesbian. she would never fuck any of you guys. ugh why cant people just say that she was a great role model or a talented leading woman? this is exactly what kathleen was against. but you guys claim that shes great and a hero. while you say these disgusting thing abt her

[grahammj]

@lilkush909 Sex is disgusting? I get your point about just seeing her as a hottie, but you are on the slippery slope of reinforcing the stereotypes of butch lesbianism and man-hating feminism. (fyi she isn't a lesbian, she's married to Adam Horovitz...lucky bastard :)

[jas22]

this is a few years old, but it seems kathleen still has a joie de vivre, kidlike way about her. in other words, she aint no primadonna sellout. i love people like that.

[jbgandhi2]

Man... for the girl who wrote "Kurt smells like teen spirit" on Cobain's wall, she sure looks a lot better than Courtney Love two decades (+) later.

[iamdeeplytrying]

I would pound Kathleen Hanna like beer on spring break! :D

[grizzaceface]

yay lesley gore

[WormTyrant]

Kathleen is a punk rock legend. She's adorable. Bikini Kill were fucking great band, and i hope they re-form one day.

[LOLOfandoly]

NO. Actually,she is right my Girlfriend.

[BlackTeddies]

I swear she is so adorable. I wish I could see her someday. There's something about her that makes her so cool.

[eightday]

Anyone know if she's lesbian? I'm just curious.

[AliensexKitten000]

@eightday no shes not, shes married to adam from the beastie boys.

[MrMaryqueenofscots]

@eightday

she's straight, she's actually married to one of the Beastie Boys

[eightday]

@MrMaryqueenofscots I was just curious cause she did that song Rebel girl when she was with Bikini Kill. That song seems to be about a lesbian relationship. I really dont care one way or another I was just curious.

[dulaneyj]

the things I want to do with Kathleen Hanna probably would make her hate me.

[countbloodula]

I would love to urinate on kathleen hanna, she looks like a gay boy

[pippigladstone]

listen to some guy singers, juno.

[captpirateface]

She is so cute...

[bobcows]

If you like Brenda Lee, you should dig a bit deeper and find Wanda Jackson.

[GutterDoll138]

Yeah. Uhm. I'd totally dike it out for Kathleen Hanna. She's my female counterpart.

[SheWolfMayhem]

@GutterDoll138 I'd become a total dyke for Kathleen Hanna... if I weren't one already =D

I think she's simply a great role model for women everywhere.

[GutterDoll138]

@SheWolfMayhem :) agreed.

[feindclub666]

some dude at school told me i was a fag for being a guy and liking bikini kill. i personally love all punk rock and think that anyone who says girls cant play that music can fuck themselves.

[BuddinBuddha]

@feindclub666 right on man, right there with ya. And next time someone says that you put one across their mug....then apologize of course!

[thecomfortisnow]

kathleen looks really young.wow.she really does.

[ana35932]

i love this girl. i could kiss her so hard. :)

[TheRubySkies]

She's still amazing after all these years. The perfect example of how not to be a sell-out.

[TheFamilyForder]

As a father, I hope that when my daughter grows up she says, "I wanna be like Kathleen Hanna".

Yeah...that would be the shit.

[dayuhanspace]

i luv u!

[2405efrapix]

isnt the girl of the video of sonic youth "bull in the heater"?

[GREENDAYMCR21]

Kathleen Hanna = HERO!

[godFlintstone]

It shouldnt matter much, LAMA (lol your name's acronymn sounds like an animal..sorry heh)

i think hero is a pretty broad term (for me that is), but she's been an inspiration on me and who i am for as long as ive been aware of her work, and that would be the case whether i was androgynous, boy, female, etc. 'slong as i had my general personality regardless. her work thru music + writings, etc. has infleunced me to this day+. im about to read an old zine titled "april fools" contributed to by her

[Lyingaboutmyage]

I'm a guy and shes my hero.

[mzoshun]

Is that the park blocks in downtown Portland OR?

[QueenJuliana]

Good guess, but nah, it's Tomkins Square Park in NYC.

[countbloodula]

kathleen is a big fatcunthead

only want one thing from her, and not to hear her talk my ear off with your useless gay babble

[AvrilJuin]

I love her style..:)

[windrix1]

I love her voice.

[xBloodPigsx]

She's adorable!!! ;d;sa'ld'sa :DDD

[lenora98]

yes

[MisfioPeton]

I love her voice so much.

[josswhedon692]

She's so cute. I wish she would stop doing all that old poetry and just go into modeling or acting already.

[drmartinsboots]

isnt she in le tigre i thought she was never knew was married to that dude though

[flordemagda]

what is up with the high amount of "thumbs down" on the comments here? doesn't make any sense....

anyway, Kathleen Hannah, rock on!

[lgfuad4lyf]

i love her.

[ghouluwant]

me too

[MatthewPA1972]

Where's Kathleen these days?

[panrick]

I'm not sure what she is doing career wise right now, but I do know that she is married to Adam Horowitz from the Beastie Boys. What an awesome couple, I'd love to go through their shared record collection.

[MatthewPA1972]

Wow. Never figured her to get married, and to a... rock star.

[oranjjjj]

when was this filmed? she has to be the like same age as me, i saw BK in 1992 and i was 19.

i heart her 4ever

[QueenJuliana]

I shot this with Kathleen about 4 or 5 years ago--maybe in 2005? xo QJ

[tbone2872]

@QueenJuliana I saw her speak last night at my school (Old Dominion University). I really enjoyed it. Got to meet her afterwards. The whole thing was a great experience.

[NihilistImp]

Heartbreaker.  Damn her.

[hoorayforBG]

Kathleen Hanna is a punk rock valley girl. She says "like" a thousand times per sentence, but she's still respectable and intelligent. Love her.

[alienAmigos]

haha, I'm a punk rock valley girl!

[shittyshit69]

wifey material

[xKluux]

oooh I love heeeerr!!!!!!

[Zacoska]

OMG she iz soooo awesome i wish she and the rest got together for a bikini kill concert that would beee soooo sweet i would definitely goo!

[TheLadiesChoice7]

"Deceptacon" is on a short list for coolest song ever recorded.

[VladFerdinand1]

she's exactly like my freind, i love kathleen

[CrazedPeeling]

she's so cute, i love kathleen

[nolflex50]

myyy herooooooo

[QueenJuliana]

Aw yeah

[thirdshift47]

Ad Rock is a lucky cat.

She's a dope artist and a seemingly cool woman.

[KiJaLo101]

One of my heroes ^_^

[hj351]

You can't listen to a le tigre album and NOT want to fling yourself about and the guitar riffs are enormous. My, My Metro Card! All that glitters is not gold.

[xXxRav3rRawrBabyxXx]

i love kathleen. (: <3

[Gabitah29]

i want to marry her too

she's so amazing

(L)

[zososcape]

im really obsessed with female singers too. or at least i like this one alot.

[WeMustBeStopped]

Is it okay to think Kathleen Hanna's like the most adorable girl in the world? K.H., I wanna be your dog.

[corporateGH0ST]

I want to marry her. lol

[mceemalice]

She definitely is.Too bad I'll probably never get to meet her or see her live. Bikini Kill should do one last reunion show. I don't care if it's in fucking China. I'd go to it.

[precast12]

She's like 40 but acts like she's 19.

[icyshells]

that's why she's rad

[MissOwnYou]

40? How'd you come up with number? She looks a lot longer then that. =/

[Drewshka]

Well, she's 38 or 39, but you'd never know by looking at her. I think it's awesome that she doesn't stay tied to this theory that everyone over 30 automatically has to become dour and uninteresting.

[eboing]

I didn't know there was such a theory.

[killerbeautiful]

There may not be a said "theory" but in the entertainment world, younger women are favored when it comes to marketing.

[RIOTdontdiet]

so?

[Imogence]

what was the song she said she liked from brenda lee?

[yvonnelemke]

Jambalaya

[yvonnelemke]

Jambalaya =)

[UltimateGamer89]

jambalaya

[dragonflysappear]

Awwh! This is so awesome.

[katk2604]

that was awesome thx)))

[Beat0it]

I cannot get over this, so so funny. I love how she was comfortable enough to impersonate Brenda Lee.

[Beat0it]

Oh my goodness, that was incredible.

[jaime030387]

LOL. That was great.

[JND777]

Kathleen is the coolest Female singer!

[denisaxw]

hahaha sexi hiccups

i love kathleen so much, thanks for this :)

[thegoteam]

Wow. I was so turned on by her until I saw her shorts at the end.

[WickedGay]

Hahaha, she's so great

[liamhedonic]

i always thought she'd be a lot icier...

[seany722]

I am guy and i met her a few times, trust me, she was quite icy.

[iocat]

I'm a guy and I hung out with maybe 3 or 4 times and she was always totally cool. Probably the least rock-stary of any rock star I've met.

[Mirrormaul]

I've never fallen in love with a pixelated depiction of a person before, that's a first... it was a short lived relationship though, but satisfying none the less... Kathleen has got a beautiful mind.

[riotfish]

im taking this clip with me home :))

[likewhoa23]

wow... obviously.. eh? she seems like a really cool person.

[sineadriotgrrl]

haha that totally made me laugh *sexy hiccups*

[QueenJuliana]

i know! while i was making it - you know, loading in from the camera, cutting, compressing, all that - i kept cracking up.

[RIOTdontdiet]

you're so lucky that you actually talked with her!.. she has been me hero since I was like 15. she has seriously influenced me more than any other human on the face of the planet.

[BullDogWoof]

LOL!
