Ann Wilson has long struggled with her weight. It's worth noting that the second video in the OP is from 2000 and she had gastric bypass surgery in 2002.
Either way, Heart kicks ass, and I'm going to enjoy the music whether or not I find the lead singer attractive.

It's downright tragic.

What's tragic is that Ms. Wilson ca. 30 years ago was literally starving herself in order to look like that.

Absolutely.

Not a bad comparison actually. Interestingly enough, I'm not a big fan of Rush, but I really enjoy Heart. I tend to prefer female singers though, especially when they're rocking out.
