and to add to Mr Mouse's ramblings ...
In every piece of press I've read about Pearl she tries her damndest to play down her family connections, despite what the journalists may try and spin into the story, she may have a famous dad and a famous husband in rock circles but as I see it she's doing her best to make it on her own and she should be applauded fo rthat in my opinion.
Like virtually every other industry out there in this day and age, rock and roll is a very cut throat, competitive industry where it's not always what you know (or what you can do) that makes the difference but who you know. Rock and roll is also like everfy other industry out there in that if you're punching above your weight you'll soon get found out ...
Who can really blame Pearl (or anyone else who finds themselves in a similar situation) for taking an opportunity to get a foot up the ladder or at the very least some impetus to get that foot on the rung to start with?
