I don't think an artist can be iconic when it's already been established that multiple people can't name a single song by them. Icon is such an intense, loaded word. Not everybody that is famous is an icon, but to be icon you need to be in the public consciousness even today.
And The Bodyguard an iconic moment? That movie is utter gash and I'd be hard pressed to find a person of my generation who has seen. Heck, I'd struggle to find many that even know who Kevin Costner is.
