        More information is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karen_O

        Karen Lee Orzolek (born November 22, 1978), better known by her stage name Karen O, is the vocalist for the New York rock band Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

        Early life

        Karen O was born to a Korean mother and a Polish father in South Korea.[2][3] She eventually moved to America, where she grew up in Englewood, New Jersey.[4] She attended Oberlin College, but transferred to Tisch School of the Arts ? a school which belongs to New York University. Karen is now based in Los Angeles.

        Career

        Karen O has been noted for her sense of fashion, wearing ostentatious outfits made by her friend, fashion designer Christian Joy. In the early days of the band, she became well known for her outrageous antics during live shows.[3]

        Playboy had made an offer to pose on their cover. Karen O said on the subject, "I was approached but I said, 'No'. Who knows though? Maybe I'll do it in the future, but now doesn't seem to be the right time."[5] Since then, however, Karen stated in an interview with Associated Press magazine that she has changed her mind on the issue because of the audience that Playboy magazine attracts.[6]

        During a tour for the 2003 Livid Festival in Australia, at a sideshow at The Metro in Sydney, she accidentally danced off the stage and was reluctantly taken to a hospital. A few days later at the Sydney leg of the Livid Festival, she appeared in a wheelchair pushed by Angus Andrew.[7]

        She won Spin Magazine's Sex Goddess Award in both 2004 and 2005. In 2006 she was named one of rock's hottest women by Blender.[8] In 2007 Karen placed #3 on Spinner.com's Women Who Rock Right Now.[9]

        She had begun working on a small side project called Native Korean Rock and the Fishnets with fellow NYC musicians in 2008.[10]

        In 2009 she contributed backing vocals, screaming, animal sounds and noises to the songs "Gemini Syringes" "I Can Be A Frog" and "Watching the Planets" on The Flaming Lips album Embryonic.

        [edit] Soundtrack work
        For the movie Jackass 2, Karen O collaborated with electronic artist Peaches and Johnny Knoxville to record a track entitled "Backass". In 2007 Karen O contributed vocals to a version of Bob Dylan's "Highway 61 Revisited" for the I'm Not There movie soundtrack.[11] She also composed all of the songs on the soundtrack of Where The Wild Things Are in collaboration with Carter Burwell; the film was directed by her former boyfriend Spike Jonze. She is listed on the soundtrack as "Karen O and the Kids" with a cover song originally by Daniel Johnston.[12] At the end of Episode 409, Cinco Brothers, of the Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! she performed a short song. On the collaboration-project "N.A.S.A. The Spirit of Apollo", she appears on the track "Strange Enough", together with Ol' Dirty Bastard and Fatlip.

        [edit] The K.O. At Home Demo Leak
        On December 10, 2006, a home-recorded album titled KO at Home was leaked via an invite-only BitTorrent tracking site. The album, originally a personal gift to Dave Sitek of the NYC band TV on the Radio, was discovered inside a suitcase Sitek left behind in a New York City apartment. The disc's 14 tracks and scan of the cover ? a photograph of Karen O with a poem written by Oscar Wilde on the back ? quickly spread. The music news site stereogum.com broke the story of the leak[13] the following morning and continued their coverage[14] when Sitek lashed out at the fan who leaked the demos.[15] Eventually Sitek followed up his comments with an apology letter.[16] Karen O's response to the leak was "shit happens" and although she was somewhat "grossed out," she offered advice on which of the mp3s she liked the best,[17] namely the tracks "Pumpkin" and "Snakes and Worms".

        [edit] Video work
        In 2004 Karen O, using the moniker Marshmellow, directed the music video for "We Fenced Other Gardens with the Bones of Our Own" by the Liars, fronted by her then boyfriend Angus Andrew.[18][19] The following year she directed the "Blessed Evening" video for Foetus with her then boyfriend Spike Jonze working as cinematographer.[20] In 2006 she directed the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' video "Cheated Hearts".[21][22]

        Under the moniker Kids With Canes, Karen O and her boyfriend Barney Clay directed the music video for the Tiny Masters of Today song "Hologram World", released on February 8, 2008. Karen also contributed vocals to the song, served as choreographer of the video, in which she appears along with Yeah Yeah Yeahs bandmates Nick Zinner and Brian Chase as well as Mike D from the Beastie Boys, Gibby Haynes from the Butthole Surfers, Russell Simins from the Blues Explosion and Sam James from The Mooney Suzuki.[23]
