Meshel has stated that there are inaccuracies in her Wikipedia page, but won't correct them just so people know that she doesn't edit it. This doesn't stop her from bragging that she's a Wikipedia page. Hi!
Hey Meshal.
You're so vain, you edit your own wikipedia.
Oh well.
Toowoomba... is gay, especially since I live here. BLERK.
