[edit]

I´ve added two links of major UK newspapers interviewing her. She is signed to a semi-big record label and her album is getting quite a bit of press.

E.g.

BBC News - http://news.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/hi/music/newsid_8069000/8069850.stm

[edit]

I have taken out the slightly sarcastic comments (the quotation marks around 'winning', and taking out the word 'somehow') about her winning the mercury prize win, as wikipedia is supposed to be neutral and unbiased. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.10.3.81 (talk) 21:53, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Worst chart performance by a Mercury winner

[edit]

What exactly is the opposition against including this fact in the article? This is not POV, but a proven fact that's been noted by the Guardian, Independent, BBC News, Sun, Billboard, a spokesman from the Official Charts Company and was brought up at a press conference after winning the award. The words "noted for" may not have been used yet, but several news sources and reports (and one official source) all confirming and reporting on the fact would strongly suggest it's notable.

Again, this is not POV – this has been reported on by several news outlets.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.86.164.251 (talk) 15:10, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
