Lisa said Minneapolis’ Cities 97 radio station (97.1 FM) featured Tori as its artist of the day today, including three of her songs played back-to-back. DJs wished Tori happy birthday a number of times throughout the day. Kelly also spotted US Weekly wishing Tori a happy 44th in the issue currently on newsstands.

Tori showed up in the BBC News Magazine Quiz of the Week. The final query of the 7 question quiz asked, “And finally, the birthday question – Shaun Ryder and Tori Amos celebrate birthdays this week, but which one has turned 45?” The answer is, of course, obvious and left as an exercise for the reader.
