Described as “what the love-child of Ali G and Lady Gaga would look and sound like”, Mimi LaRue is a satirist whose humorous takes on different genres are similar in style to Weird Al Yankovic – but more controversial.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

‘Country Star’ takes a hilarious look at country music, but with a bitter sweet edge – examining the sexual inequality\u00a0in the genre, as well as the difficulty of getting into the industry in the first place. LaRue has a singing style which is easily adapted to whichever she is satirising.\u00a0True, the lyrics are explicit –\u00a0but there’s humour behind them and Mimi could easily find her way onto Saturday Night Live or the like.<\/p>\n
