Feist on Colbert: Become an iPod artist, get citizenship
http://apple.cooone.com/ feist-on-colbert-become-an-ipod-artist-get-citizenship/
Not only does being shown in an iPod commercial lead to fame and fortune for many artists, but Canadian singer Leslie Feist apparently got something else out of the deal: she got American citizenship. We have no idea how that works, but she says as much in this clip of her appearing on Stephen Colbert’s show. When he mentions that she’s from the Great White North, she says that she’s actually a dual citizen now. Colbert asks if Steve Jobs really stepped up to make her an American and she says yes, that’s pretty much how it worked: “They offered me citizenship, that was part of it.”Is she joking? Or has Jobsy actually got the ear of the government now and is giving out citizenships as part of Apple contracts? Either way, we know this: Leslie Feist rocks.
