Could JV be alluding to Icelandic pop princess Bjork, I wonder? But no, I think I'm being naive.
Me, I doubt it. I think the only reason Vance mentioned Palmer is because of Palmer's public lauding of The Eyes Of The Overworld. Or was it The Dying Earth? Pardon me, I forget. I don't think he gives a rat's ass for most pop culture. I did notice a possible name-check for John Varley, and a definate name-check for Vance's agent, Ralph Vicinanza. Any others?
