I think you are missing the point. We all work hard at what ever we do. Jewel happens to be compensated really, really well for it. She has no more or less right to bitch about it then anyone. The issue is that Jewel chose to seek fame, and she has to pay the price that comes with it, or else walk away. You may say that's noy an easy choice, and it surely isn't but others have done it. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lauren Bendeich" To: Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2001 2:50 AM Subject: [EDA] Re: z100 bashing-jewel's job not hard? > <<< HARDER THAN ALL THE PEOPLE WHO GET PAID A TINY FRACTION OF WHAT SHE GETS > PAID.

I know from personal experience that one of the worst things you can do on this list is imply that you (or anyone) works harder than Jewel. I've had personal experience with this a while back, and it was not fun. I had a long argument (mostly off the list) with several EDAs who refused to believe that *anyone* works harder than Jewel. Most of the discussions went something like this: Me- My father has worked 80 hours a week for the last 35 years and all he has to show for it is two bad knees and a failing heart. Them- It might be hard for him, but I'm sure it doesn't compare to the promo work and touring Jewel has done in the past few years. Me- Jewel has become a millionaire doing what she loves, while millions of people work their whole lives at thankless jobs and never get ahead. Them- I'm sure they don't work as hard as Jewel does. And if you add up all the money she's made and divide it by the number of hours she's worked, she barely makes anything per hour. To this day, the statements made by "them" still don't make sense to me. Maybe I'm missing something. Sorry for this little rant, but since this subject has come up again I felt I had to get some of this stuff off my chest and issue a warning to EDAs who share my opinion on the matter. By the way, this is *not* an invitation to start up past debates about this with me. Just tell yourself you're right (like I have) and leave it at that. I've said all I'm ever going to say on this matter.

Anyone who comes up with the argument you imply to "them" demeans themselves and their parents, etc. Just because someone is not a "star" doesn't mean they don't work as hard or (g-d forbid) harder than Jewel. What gets me is that most of the people who defend her are struggling to make it, or just starting out, and will work their asses off to pay the bills without ever becoming a millionaire. Jewel is a great talent, but come on people. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Eric Levenchuck" To: Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2001 11:16 AM Subject: NJC: Re: [EDA] Re: z100 bashing-jewel's job not hard? > You're on dangerous ground here.

Just one more point. Jewel chose the path of living in her van, etc. at the age she did that, most of us were or will be in college pulling all nighters and reading 100s of pages a week to get by.
