Sinéad O’Connor, acclaimed Dublin singer, dies aged 56

Michael D Higgins leads tributes to Irish musician, saying the country has lost an ‘extraordinarily beautiful, unique voice’

The Irish Times
Burning that picture of the pope was legendary, even without her incredible music she’d be remembered as an icon and iconoclast. Bless you.
She didn't burn it, she ripped it into pieces. She will definitely be remembered as an iconoclast but obviously hasn't held up to be that impactful, as people apparently don't even remember what she did.
I was gonna thank you but now I’ll just mock you for thinking how it was destroyed was in any way the important bit
You're right, she should've eaten it. It was SNL after all; maybe that would've gotten a more enticing ambivalent reaction.
