	Peaches is one of the most controversial popcultural icons of the twenty-first century. Born as Merrill Beth Nisker, Peaches is a Canadian artist who deals in her arts – mostly centered on electro rock music – with the issues of sexual freedom, and the hypocrisy of the contemporary power structures that still govern the relations between people, making the shade of patriarchy present. In her artistic activates – predominantly, but not exclusively, the lyrics to her songs – she performs a number of sexual transgressions that provoke questions about equality, identity, and liberty. She subverts the old, hypocritical system of values employing an explicitly shocking and direct attitude to sexualities that can be called hypersexiness. This article attempts to present Peaches’ uncompromising artistic attitude and is an attempt to read it through the aforementioned category of hypersexiness.
