Known for her bold attitude—a plus size model and the cover girl for Katie Perry's inaugural glossy, Love—her DIY indie rock/post punk creations have become the talk of the town. Ditto and her fellow band mates, Brace Pain (guitar, bass) and Hannah Blilie (drums), have just finished a new album, Music for Men. The album, produced by Rick Rubin, will be released on June 22nd. If you don't get to see her live, maybe you can get your hands on a new Beth Ditto doll, because apparently Ditto is the new Barbie. /system/photos/0046/6848/l_94195215127d4cfba44e63a8e6b4282f_thumb.jpg 2009-06-22T10:49:00+02:00 466848 courtesy The Gossip /system/photos/0046/6848/l_94195215127d4cfba44e63a8e6b4282f.jpg
