She always wore hot pink dresses.
She ranked #6 in 1994 on Mr. Blackwell's Worst Dress List.

She gave out kooky fashion tips, like 'I always use boot polish on my eyelashes, because I am a very emotional person and it doesn't run when I cry.'
Moammar Gadhafi is reportedly a fan of hers.
She believed in ghosts.

Why she might not be annoying:
