Okay, here's the format.
"Up until I read that interview I thought [INSERT ARTIST HERE] was [INSERT ERRONEOUS PRECONCIEVED NOTION] but now I know that they are really [TRUTH], and I find that hard to deal with."
Example: "Up until I read that interview I thought Sarah MacLachlin was this sweet, classy and debonair little missy with a vast amount of dignity; but then she answered the moronic question 'If You were a Spice Girl, which one would you be?' with the frothy little quip: 'Smelly Spice. Because I Fart Alot.', and I find that hard to deal with."
