Many of you know that here in the northeastern United States we had a vicious little ice storm that resulted in prolonged power outages. Fortunately I was only without power for under 48 hours, which I never thought under 48 hours was good until I talked to people who went 72 hours or more! Anyway, I\u2019ve been busy catching up, and that means hitting all my favorite celebrity gossip blogs. It was during this that I came across the headline \u201cDancing Midget Zombies\u201d on Perez Hilton\u2019s website<\/a>. That title was enough to get me to check it out, and I assume it\u2019s enough to get you to click in for my article.<\/p>\n

The title is in reference to a music video Hilton was featuring from the female British rapper Lady Sovereign called \u201cI Got You Dancing\u201d. I\u2019ve always kind of liked Lady Sovereign, her stuff reminds me of early hip hop music. (Technically she is part of the Grime genre of music, \u201ca genre of urban music which first emerged in East London, England in the early 2000s, primarily a development of UK garage, dancehall, and hip hop.\u201d according to Wikipedia.) I\u2019ll admit, I was curious as to how a female British rapper was working the concept of dancing midget zombies into a music video. Then I watched it.<\/p>\n
