References in Popular Culture
Several songs have been written based on Invisible Monsters, including Panic! at the Disco's "Time to Dance" from the 2005 album A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, Motion City Soundtrack's "Invisible Monsters", a bonus track found on their 2005 album Commit This to Memory, and The Walkmen's "Brandy Alexander", which appeared on their 2006 album A Hundred Miles Off and in the film In Bruges. Jeffree Star's song title "Your Heart Is My Piñata" is a direct reference to the Katty Kathy quote of the Rhea sister's invention, with Jeffree's debut album "Beauty Killer" containing several references to the novel.

Famous quotes containing the words popular culture, popular and/or culture:
“Like other secret lovers, many speak mockingly about popular culture to conceal their passion for it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Kings govern by popular assemblies only when they cannot do without them.”
—Charles James Fox (1749–1806)
“The anorexic prefigures this culture in rather a poetic fashion by trying to keep it at bay. He refuses lack. He says: I lack nothing, therefore I shall not eat. With the overweight person, it is the opposite: he refuses fullness, repletion. He says, I lack everything, so I will eat anything at all. The anorexic staves off lack by emptiness, the overweight person staves off fullness by excess. Both are homeopathic final solutions, solutions by extermination.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
