That's the coolest person in the world this year.

This is the most redundant list of the year.

Here in Toronto, many have already jumped straight to the Crystal Castles backlash without bothering to like them first (the band is from here and I think people were kind of embarrassed that they got zero notice until we were told about them by foreigners). So we're ahead of the Brits on this one.

Man, is half the list "people who the Arctic Monkeys drank a beer with once"? Ick.

Also, Crystal Castles are like Justice for people who still think it's important how "punk rock" other people perceive them to be.

43. Karen O, Yeah Yeah Yeahs
[last year: 28]

She's still around??

25. Peter Gabriel
[new entry]

That Wall-E soundtrack must be a hit with the NME crowd.

Also, In what world is Liam Gallagher cool? Let alone cooler than Lil' Wayne?

What's the coolest thing you own? "Slaves."

Yeah, I'd say she's real deserving of the title.
