In July, we told you about Rolling Stone's "Women Who Rock" playlist and asked you to vote for your favorite rocker chick (turns out Joan Jett and Stevie Nicks were SodaHead's top choices.) Rolling Stone also ran a poll on their site asking users to vote for their favorite "2012 Women Who Rock" and YouTube sensation Karmin was just announced as the winner, landing them this month's cover of the famed music mag.
Karmin is a female-led duo comprised of Amy Heidemann and her fiance Nick Noonan and is best known for their single "Brokenhearted" (watch the video below). It reached the top 20 in the US, but if you haven't heard it yet you might be familiar with their covers of Chris Brown's "Look at Me Now" or Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass." Some disgruntled observers have noted that the group isn't really rock and is 50 percent male, but they weren't the only mixed-gender group on the poll. What do you guys think of Karmin? Have you heard them yet? And if so, are you a fan?

JEZEBEL.COM reports:
Rolling Stone partnered with Garnier Fructis to create a "Women Who Rock flip cover contest." The contest featured a fairly diverse bunch of artists but Karmin, a group that consists of 26-year-old Amy Heidemann and her fiancé Nick Noonan, are the winners. The fans have spoken, they're the ones who voted, and this duo represents the 2012 Women Who Rock.

She's fine ... but she doesn't rock. You can't "rock" if you do "pop" music.reply - thє вluє wαndєrєr 2012/09/28 13:51:54

- Lyndell "Still YDG'n?!" Banks 2012/09/27 18:14:57Yes+1She's not the best thing in the world, but she isn't as bad as people are making her out to seem. Her cover of Chris Brown's Look At Me Now was pretty good.
reply - Michael72380 2012/09/27 16:40:14YesKARMIN IS AWESOME. To all the junk out there.. They are a breath of fresh air because they will do all sorts of things across their career. :) (Country, Rap, Rock, Pop).. They are cross genre if they wanted to be.reply

- smitty 2012/09/27 13:23:08Haven't heard of them...Who? I didn't think there could be anymore reality shows. I think that box my parents ages ago called the boob tube has turned into one, literally.reply
- The heartless 2012/09/27 07:21:01 (edited)NoI hate this song and i don't consider her to be a rock singer at all. Her one hit wonder song is just a generic piece of unforgettable rubbish that will be seen in the bargin bin in a years time. I hate fad songs or seasonal songs that only last for summer and once the novelty wears off no one cares.This woman as far as i am concerned did not deserve to be on the front cover of this magazine. She is a nobody!! why couldn't they put a real rock singer on the front cover who is worthy of the gig rather than some lame ass pop chick?reply

- Dragontoasted 2012/09/26 23:13:22Haven't heard of them...+1If I had listened to the song before I read the blurb, I wouldn't have thought her genre was rock. Sounds like pop with a little guitar action that's interrupted by a badly-done rap in the middle... and that shirt she's wearing looks like my 101 Dalmatians Halloween costume from when I was seven or so. Never heard of her until today, and I'll be perfectly fine with forgetting her tomorrow.reply
