are those pop singers completely without talent? no. but all of those people you named are more about being marketed as a package than they are about talent. I don't know anything about Taylor Swift, but the rest of those people you named are more about 1) having good looks, 2) having the right PR people, management, and producers, and 3)having the right people writing songs for them.
look at all these people that become famous off singing songs that other people wrote. then, they suddenly think they're good enough to write their own songs. more often than not, it turns into a trainwreck. and most of these famous pop singers are very average singers. you ever heard any of their live recordings from the soundboard before it goes through all the processing that they have? some of them are flat-out awful singers.
cmon Pontius... what would one of my replys to you be with out an eye roll bro???
LMAO!!!
i get what youre saying about marketing and not writing their own songs, but all of those performers do have great voices... i dont like the bubblegum top 40 genre but some are talented... plenty of famous people have tried to sing and FLOPPED... its not just marketing and having the right song... its having the voice too...
i also agree that ALOT of them do use sound boards and sound nothing like their original voice, or have others sing for them while they are the face of the voice...
