You have to admit, people here really are dismissive of pop, even though most of the criticism is unfounded. People see Justin Bieber in a magazine, assume he is a talentless, brainless lesbian, and further escalate their own elitism. If people bothered to watch his videos they would know he can dance and he can sing...two talents that are noteworthy within a pop-performer's context. It's more a case of him not fitting into the acoustic expectations of this forum. The fact that these talents combined with his youthful looks reap major commercial benefits shouldn't blind you from the fact that genuine talent does exist beneath the mass marketing veneer.

The same can't be said of Katy Perry. Truly the worst of the worst...



Laughably bad. BABBBBBBBBAYYYYYYYY YOURE A FAAAYYYREEEEE WUUUUUUUURRRRRKKKKK!
Point well taken, and I wouldn't dismiss the assets that Bieber or Gaga has, but I couldn't agree with Conan more.
