No, that description belongs to the hideous 'Pang'. In contrast to whom, as befits a female whose name begins with BJ (), BJörk once had something about her:


Before she went weird:

In her teens, Björk was influenced by punk; at 14 she formed the all-girl punk band Spit and Snot, shortly followed by the jazz fusion group Exodus in 1979. In 1980 she graduated from music school. In 1981 she and bassist Jakob Magnússon formed another band called Jam-80, which later became Tappi Tíkarrass (which means "Cork the Bitch’s Arse" in Icelandic).
She sounds like a nice girl. The sort you'd take home to meet Mum?

Later, in 2002, one of her performance 'works' was described thus:

In a white bodysuit and with bleached eyebrows, Björk conjurs red translucent threads to shoot from her bosom and enwrap her in a cocoon, while she sings passionately about a newly found love.
Riiiiiiiiiggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhtttttttt........
