NEW YORK (Reuters) -- Singer-songwriter Nellie McKay dropped out of music college with failing grades two years ago, but now the precocious 19-year-old has a double album climbing the charts amid a flood of critical acclaim.
To hear McKay tell it, it's about time. After all, she's talented and she's been working at this for "a long time."
"I've been telling (my friends) for years that I'm going to be famous," McKay said with a sly smile over coffee at a Harlem coffee shop. "When I look at me in the mirror, I see someone on the front cover of US Weekly.
"Apparently everyone else sees a regular girl. I'm very disappointed in that," she continues. "I want them to see me as Frank Sinatra or Bill Clinton. It tends to get on my nerves when people say, 'Wow, can you believe this is happening to you?' I say 'Yeah, I've worked hard for this.' "
