"Atrocious personality" to blame for Joss backlash

Joss Stone has blamed her personality for the backlash she has faced, saying the media makes up stories about her private life.

Joss Stone has blamed her "atrocious personality" for the backlash she has suffered from media and fans alike in recent years, particularly the media response that occurred when she dyed her hair and started talking with an American accent. And who am I to argue with her conclusion? I don't know anything about her, so she'd just accuse me of making it all up. My sister did once see her open a car door into a wall, though. And that's a fact.

Anyway, Stone told The Daily Star: "I think I suffered a backlash not because of my music but because of me - my atrocious personality probably. I don't give away too much about my private life so the media just make it up. It doesn't matter what I do or don't say. I can just chill alone for months and still be labelled the biggest bitch in the world. But my hair has changed, it's my real colour now. And I've made a simple album that I love".
