Meg White is the most improbable of rock stars. She is by nature shy, humble and quiet with no musical training. And although she has won four Grammy Awards and formed one-half of the most acclaimed alternative-rock band of the past decade, White still remains as humble and shy as ever. But according White herself, it was out of her limitations that the simplistic rhythms that defined The White Stripes' sound, and captured the imagination of a generation, grew. "I'm just a very shy person,
" she explains. "That is my strength. A lot of drummers would feel weird about being that simplistic."

Female Music Icons of the 1990s and New Millennium
View groupThe 1990s was the era of the riot grrrl, the rapper and Lilith Fair, which served to reshape traditional ideas of feminism. Artists such as Bikini Kill, Meg White, Queen Latifah and Lady Gaga were able to explore the formerly male-dominated areas of the music industry and become some of the leading voices of the industry. Whether in high-heels, stilettos, or army boots, these ladies stood toe-to-toe with any male artist of the day.
