And the only people who really care about those awards shows are people who are probably more concerned with celebrity worship in general than they are with music. If you want to call her overpopular, then you may have a point, but to be overrated I think people whose opinions are considered to matter, whether it be professional music critics or John Q. Public, have to actually rate you highly. And for the most part they don't.

Her being critically acclaim has nothing to do with her fans and more to do with music critics and the industry which was what I was referring too.

Most of her albums are critically acclaim. Her latest album is critically acclaim.

Rolling Stones and Billboards are hyping it like the closest thing to Mozart. Billboard even had the nerve to compare it to Janet Jacksons socially conscious "Rhythm Nation." Its fair to call Taylor overrated.

Pink Floyd's The Wall is an awful album compared to DSOTM, WYWH, and Animals.

I don't hear or recognize anything special about Taylor Swift and her music, I mean, to me she is just so dull and all the praise she gets is horribly undeserved. Cool on her for what she has accomplished, but her music overall is just...not for me.

Also...

Billboard in general doesn't really know what they're talking about anymore. When they say things like comparing Taylor Swift to Janet Jackson, especially. Janet Jackson is ten times the talent and singer/vocalist that Swift wishes she could be.

Cher is racist (although I like her music)

Jack White is sexy and has killer swag

Iggy Pop always look angry...and he has good reason too.
