I understand the desire to object to the existence of this thread but Lauryn Hill is actually crazy.

saddest/truest line comes from that NYT article upthread:
"a performer who, for more than a decade, has been chasing a muse that has led her in almost every direction but forward"

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office for New Jersey, which filed the tax charges, said in response to Hill's posting Friday that they could not speak to the specifics of the investigation "that's all well and good, but girlfriend still needs to pay her taxes."

she is obviously crazy but it's hard to generate much sympathy for her since the particular form in which that craziness expresses itself is megalomania.

Career jail.

I should distinguish, Badu is "crazy," but not crazy. She's eccentric, erratic, quirky, unpredictable, and a little conspiracy prone, but not crazy. Lauryn Hill, on the other hand, by all indications there could be something really wrong with her.
Also
LOL. yeah, Badu and Hill ... that pretty much covers it! Let me know when you find another one.

what is a "prep school" anyway? just a private school? or do you have to live there for it to be a prep school? like brenden frasier in school ties?

you meant "perp school," which trains you to be a felon like Ms. Hill.

The "I'm not crazy, society is crazy" hermitude posture is compelling, although in her case it's probably a little of both.
