That’s the Dresden Dolls‘ Amanda Palmer in a post on the Leeds United tracks from her Who Killed Amanda Palmer album.

“i sent a mailer about the video mentioning that the label i’m on (roadrunner records) had wanted to pull shots from the video so that my bare belly wasn’t exposed,” Palmer blogs, going on »»»

they thought i looked fat. i thought they were on crack.

dude. i’m a vain motherfucker. i know when i look fat. i had beth hanging out on the set of the pope videos, keeping an eye on my figure as i pranced around in my slip in case pope was getting a particularly pregnant-looking angle. i hate shots of myself where i look heavy with child.

but THIS?? this was just nonsense. i thought i looked HOT. i really, really didn’t see where they were coming from. at all.

so i didn’t budge.

they weren’t happy, but then again they’re not very happy with anything i’m doing lately (including putting out a record that has “no commercial potential” and is impossible to promote, since nobody will like it).

the video was left as is.

my day was MADE today, however, by a thread i saw on the shadowbox devoted to Belly Solidarity.
fans have been pulling out and photographing their gorgeous, femmy, hariy, and otherwise human bellies with messages to the world:
