She's talented and has a good voice, more so than a lot of other pop artists, but the music that she puts out is obnoxious and I dislike how she blatantly puts out bullshit pop in order to become rich/famous but then talks about ~BEING YOURSELF~ and shit. I mean she's so clearly a famewhore, so I dislike her persona.
But she's not whiny or obnoxious or bitchy like Katy Perry because she actually tries to inspire people, so as a person I respect her. And you can't deny that she's a marketing genius. Yeah, her persona is a total famewhore, but it gets her richer than I'll ever be, so props to her on that.
