* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: What many fans thought about her 2005–2009 material. It's been joked amongst some fans that the quality of her music is directly tied to [[CreatorBreakdown how angry Tori is]], and she has mellowed out ever since the birth of her daughter.

* LGBTFanbase: She's had one from the beginning, stemming from her early performances in gay bars and for working in [[AlternativeRock a genre]] that has been LGBT-friendly from the get-go. She's also claimed that straight men actively dislike her music for its emotional rawness.

* CrazyIsCool: She's quite awesome, and quite mad, and these are codependent traits; She dresses up as different personas and plays two pianos while straddling the bench. She speaks of fairies and making love to 'the Wolf' in interviews. Delirium of Creator/NeilGaiman's ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' is partially based on her in later volumes, though in the beginning she ''just happened to resemble'' the AnthropomorphicPersonification of CrazyIsCool.
* CriticalBacklash[=/=]CriticalDissonance: ''Boys for Pele'' was panned by critics, but it's considered one of her best albums by her fans. The album has found itself VindicatedByHistory, as by the late 2000s many music critics and experts have also come to acknowledge it as being one of the best from its genre and time period. It has been theorized that the album's poor response at the time was due to [[NewSoundAlbum its sound being such a dramatic departure from her first two albums]].

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: She is either a goddess or boring, pretentious, crappy at covering songs, and/or a Music/KateBush rip-off. Tori herself has acknowledged that she is an acquired taste.

** And then both ''Native Invader'' and ''Ocean to Ocean'' built on the streak with the latter album is now considered her highest rated 21st Century album on Metacritic.

** With ''Night of Hunters''. She managed to unbreak some of her BrokenBase and most of the unpleasable fans are enchanted by the album, with some naming it as one of her best albums ever.
** ''Unrepentant Geraldines'' was even more acclaimed than ''Night of Hunters''. It even became her most critically-acclaimed album since ''Scarlet's Walk''.
