13. Peaches

Why She Rocks: Peaches is a sexed-up, brazen gal with an arsenal of lo-fi electro-punk, naughty one-liners and political hypotheticals. Whether she's challenging the social construction of gender by donning a beard, performing onstage with inflatable phallic props or encouraging two guys to get it on, the Canadian music teacher-turned-shock-rocker will make damn sure you dance.

Most Rockin' Moment: Peaches was forced to pull a pair of her underwear off eBay after the company deemed it "unsuitable," but the singer wouldn't be stopped. Instead, the mesh pink thong became a complimentary gift with the purchase of a ball of peach yarn.
