Bendecida con una voz extraordinaria templada al calor de su insobornable activismo, Sinéad O’Connor irrumpió, muy a su pesar, en la constelación de las grandes roqueras a finales de los ochenta, con una pompa que no iba con ella y de la que acabaría abjurando en poco tiempo.

Por su iconoclasta aspecto y sus célebres intervenciones televisivas.
