An image of Andy from the show Parks and Recreation with text that reads: “I have no idea who Sinead O’Connor is and at this point I’m afraid to ask”
She was massive in the nineties. Then she tore up a picture of Pope John Paul II to protest the child abuse the church was covering up and she got absolutely slated for it. She pretty much became a recluse after that so it’s not really surprising you don’t know of here.
When the whole #metoo movement got big, people remebered her as the one who stood up against institutionalised sexual abuse before it was cool

She never got a lot of airplay after she punk-rockedly tore up a picture of the fucking pope on national television (SNL). I never really cared for her music, but RIP queen. We could use a lot more artists like you.
To add to her punk credentials, at a concert after that show she was loudly booed. Instead of running off stage, or singing the song she had planned, she did the same song she did on SNL.
