So, I took some (maybe somewhat deserved) flak last week for the Great White Stripes Debacle of ‘07, mostly for the line about Meg’s job not being so hard that she should succumb to any sort of “medical” condition. Well y’all, New York Magazine had their fun with our favorite princess of percussion too…check out their list of “Ten Things That Probably Stressed Out Meg White.” As Stereogum noted, the best is probably #4: “Exhausted from constantly having to talk Jack out of regrowing his mustache.”
I Didn’t Mean It, Meg…

I love Meg and I don’t think you were too harsh on her (and you were correct!)…I guess the fanboys just lost their shit on you about it. (”You insensitive Bitch!”)
Dealing with Jack’s fashion sense would put anyone over the edge.
Anyway, I can relate to Meg’s freakout….here she is, able to be somewhat anonymous in the glare of Jack’s celebrity because she is kind of shy and unassuming…but with the publicity behind this release, she is now in the Lindsey-Lohanesque-24/7-scrutiny machine.
Poor girl. I hope she gets it together and is able to deal with it. There’s no crime in losing it over this crap.

At least she hasn’t shaved her head or had naked photos leak yet.
