In her brand-new video, "Ghost," Fefe Dobson proves:

1.) It's possible to look amazing in all white. (Not just anyone can do that!)

2.) It's possible that she has superpowers.

Fefe Dobson catches her (soon-to-be-ex-) boyfriend cheating on her -- with a far less cute girl, it should be noted -- and then the real fun begins! Fefe shape-shifts, climbs the ceilings, turns into a singing tattoo, probably causes the floorboards in his house to make scary and unsettling creeks and ultimately breaks up a doomed relationship, proving that revenge is a dish served ... hot actually. She burns a bed, for crying out loud (so Gaga!) and subtly channels Kelly Clarkson in her "Never Again" video.

Fefe Dobson is a pretty spunky rock gal out of Canada who makes spitfire rock singles like "I Want You," which fall somewhere between Joan Jett and the White Stripes.

But this is "The 5," and rarely on "The 5" do we speak of what people sound like or what their recording process is like. "The 5" is where you find out about the little oddities, idiosyncrasies and weird/fun facts that make the artists who they are.

So, in the case of Fefe Dobson we learn that the young singer/songwriter has a love for baking muffins, counts herself as a devoted follower of the Church of Mariah Carey (we also belong!), pledges undying allegiance to her first-generation iPod (the old brick-looking joint) and reveals her nearly legal blindness (true!) and her penchant for pyromania (somewhat exaggerated).

Learn about all these things and more in Fefe's episode of "The 5," plus watch her awesome "I Want You" video and one of her favorite Mariah jams.

Fefe Dobson -- the Canadian rock singer-songwriter who's toured with Justin Timberlake, written for Miley Cyrus and Jordin Sparks, counts Demi Lovato as a fan, and earned herself two Juno Award nominations -- is a style chameleon whose ever-evolving sense of fashion is clearly reflected in her musical tastes, which range from the White Stripes to Kurt Cobain to the Vines to Britney Spears, and her and collaborators, which include Cyndi Lauper, and Cobra Starship, who she'll be performing live with at the The 2009 Video Music Awards Battle for the Best Breakout NYC Artist this Friday, September 10 in New York.

Fefe's new album, Joy, is coming out soon, and we'll see if her style continues to evolve as her music does too. But first, she's going shopping with MTV's Kim Stolz for something to wear to the 2009 VMAs this Sunday, September 13.

Check out a few of Fefe Dobson's looks to get a feel for her style, and stay tuned for an inside look at what goes into celebrity shopping for the VMAs!

Like Britney Spears, one of her many musical influences, Fefe Dobson rocks a faux fur jacket at Lauren Conrad's "Head for the Hills" party in Toronto in March 2008. And those glasses? Gabe Saporta and Justin Timberlake would be proud.

Fefe goes glam -- think a cross between Vanessa Hudgens and Rihanna (who Fefe's accused of stealing her style) -- without shedding her rocker-girl edge at an entertainment event in Toronto in September 2006.

At a June 2009 party thrown by wil.i.Am in Toronto, Fefe pulls off a classic Joan Jett rocker-girl look in cut-offs and lots of leather.

+ Ever the smart businessman, Snoop Dogg has just released some sick headphones (the only ones available with in-ear subwoofers), in partnership with music accessory outfit Skullcandy. Gotta make that meezy, fo' sheezy. (HipHop Wired)

+ Lady Gaga does the cover of OUT magazine (along with an amazing photo spread and accompanying article), and when we say "does it," we mean she blows it out. of the effing. water. Don't walk... RUN! (OUT)

+ Guitar god Les Paul passed away today, leaving tons of musicians and music lovers worldwide mourning the loss of a genius inventor and performer. (E! Online)

+ Electro duo La Roux announced today that their next single will be "I'm Not Your Toy." We're kind of in love with this band, and my boyfriend hates me because of it. Overshare? Oh, you just WAIT... (NME)

+ Remind us again why Scarlett Johansson is trying to have a singing career? Probably the same reason Beyonce is trying to have an acting career. Watch this just-released video in which, regardless of whether or not she can sing she looks insanely hot, for "Relator" with Pete Yorn to refresh your memory. (PopSugar)

+ We love Fefe Dobson (remember "Take Me Away?"). Evidently she put on a smoldering show at NYC's Mercury Lounge (performing new tracks like "I Want You" mixed with some old favorites) last night. We love what this girl stands for: sticking it to the man and doing things her way. Let's hope this time around her label will keep her on the payroll for a while. (Neon Limelight)

People, Fefe Dobson should be huge. This mini Joan Jett is off in all the right ways: she doesn't quite belong in music today, and her melodies are so resolute and committed in their differences.

And now, as I step down from my musical soapbox, let me lower the bar and admit I first heard Fefe's new single "I Want You" on promos for obvious Emmy-contender Megan Wants a Millionaire. But let's try to erase that association and focus instead on Fefe's new "I Want You" music video below, which just premiered on MTV. I enjoy the oft-used high-school setting; schoolgirl crush frustration still rears its whiny head from time to time (at least it does for me), and Fefe tailing a boy down the hall, yelling her longing into his deaf ears... resonates, to say the least. To say the VERY least.

Going back in time, Fefe won me over with the outrageously overlooked "Don't Let It Go to Your Head," the lead single from her album Sunday Love, which Island never released (they subsequently dropped her) ... because no one listened to it. OUTRAGEOUS! Please download it right now -- or at the very least listen to Jordin Sparks' cover (it's track 3 on Battlefield; I'm glad someone appreciates...)
