Agreed.
Here's young Lauryn, aged 13, initially being boo-ed at a filmed talent show, and then winning the audience over with her great natural voice and presence. Note her hair and clothes.

And here's Lauryn in 2001, after walking away from the Grammies and her career, performing live on MTV, just her voice and basic guitar, singing her own song "I gotta find peace of mind".
She breaks down, weeping, near the end.

There are more joyful moments - eg "Redemption Song" and "Killing Me Softly" - in the links in my post above.
But yes, Keith, I agree that she's for real. As is Sinead O'Connor. They are both far too real for the brand and image makers, and a genuine danger to the powerful such as Vatican Inc.
Unlike the phony philanthropist popstars with their grinning photo-ops with Bush and Blair. You all know who I mean.
