I listed quite a few reasons. Granted, I was being rather exaggerated in my verbiage. But I dislike her for the reasons listed. Mainly that we live in a society that sees success as monetary and she has taken the position of power she is in because of her ability to write catchy songs (the lyrics of which, indeed, sound like she really couldn't give a ****) and she has used this position of power to make it even MORE popular to be grossly materialistic. It's not her music i dislike... it's her image and the effect it has.
And in what way exactly does my opinion stem from ignorance? Unless you mean ignorance of the entirety of her material which, I admit happily, I am ignorant of, because after watching her videos I decided not to poison myself with the backwards values she makes oh-so-swallowable by producing, I admit, extremely catchy songs.
