In reply to Dc.

@GworlBye, I see what you're saying, but truthfully the Mitt Romney fiasco didn't garner nearly as much attention as this. This is being discussed worldwide and being covered by every large media outlet. I work for the U.S. Federal courts and she's even being discussed here, which is insane to think of.

@DC, I get what you're saying as well, but I never said Nicki wasn't known, Nicki is obviously very well known. However, people are paying more attention. Naturally, when we hear of a musician/celebrity who shares the same views, it sparks interest, and can influence a person to be more inclined to check out their work. Clearly, there is some truth to that segment if her streams have increased since the start of "ballgate".
