I actually had no idea who this person was until this thread. Other than sing songs and look about 25 years older than she actually is, what sets her apart from the throngs of talented musicians no one cares about?

she's large and in charge
 
Lana del Rey is a pop star I can get behind.

Don't worry; Adele already has no range (well, about 2.5 octaves including head voice / falsetto). Not that you need a huge range to be great; there are great singers (like Adele) with more limited range relative to other pop singers.

True Adele's gift is her tone and expressiveness.
 
Yes, she does have a better range.

Though I have no idea what Britney's live vocal range actually is. Since these days (and basically post-1997) it is possible to pitch shift notes, it means that you can't necessarily believe that what you hear on a studio recording is actually a note they can hit unless they are doing it live (or maybe sufficiently close, like taking it a half step down, which is often completely understandable).

Like Britney actually sings in concert any way.
 
I had to look her up on Wikipedia, also amazed that she's only 23. 33 is more like it.
 
If she cares so little about her image and so much about her voice, why does she smoke so much?

Her songs are played on far too many ads, radios and everywhere in between. It's like James Blunt all those years ago. It won't last.
 
dat photoshop.

She looked better before she got all of that plastic surgery done to her face.
I constantly am arguing with my friend about this. He says he loves the lips. I say I love the styling (hair, makeup, clothes) but the lips are a step too far. Collagen never looks real. They don't move like natural lips. I can't take people seriously who have had lip injections. It's so so so unattractive!
 
Not pop, but St. Vincent is pretty hot:

She also actually makes good music.[/QUOTE]


yep shes adorable.. looks really unpretentious too unlike llama del ray who wants to desperately to be taken seriously
 
The Del Rey hate is so amazing, people are just giving her more publicity and attention than she would've ever gotten without it.

The only place I've ever heard her name is Gaf. Never heard a second of her music. So I suppose you are right. Let's see if bad publicity is good for your career. Didn't her CD just come out?
 
I just don't like Lana Del Ray cause her name is too long.

Sorry. All the pop females have one name, and maybe two. Three is way too much.

Actually, the more names you have, the less you matter.

Rihanna, Beyonce, Adele, B. Spears, C. Aguleria, L. D. Rey., etc.

So less is better.

Why? Is three words too hard to remember? Besides, to refer to LDR, people will eventually just use Lana. Beyonce, Adele, Lana, Britney, Christina, Gaga, Rihanna, etc.
 
LOL I played some of rolling in the deep for my 6 year old girl today. 20 seconds in she's covering her ears and yelling "this sucks I hate it!". Even 6 year olds can't stand her, and this kid likes just about everything.
 
Adele I can stand if for the fact she hasn't been friggin overplayed around these parts...I had not heard LDR until I just watched the "Video Games" video...and two words sprang to mind, Vapid and Souless.


I wont be listening to her again if I can help it.

Dude....

1 six year old doesn't like it = every six year old doesn't like it? Come on, man. If you're gonna shitpost, at least do it right.

You say even 6 year olds can't stand her like she has a lot of hate. She probably gets 10% of the hate other artists get and thats because she can actually sing. And a lot of the shit people say about her is fickle shit like oh she is fat and she smokes or she is so popular i'm tired of hearing her.
 
Love the Adele hate in here, atleast Adele doesn't need gimmicks and shit to distract people from how mediocre they are. (lady Gaga)
 
Loving Adele since her debut "19" came out. Daydreamer <3
Buuuut 21 is better. It's a classic. I can always listen to it.

I don't care that she's on the fatter side. I listen to her voice. But she needs to smoke less, that's for sure.
 
YASS Vect! Punch those haters and their leaking anuses out of the game!



In ADELE related news:

21 spends its 18th non-consecutive week atop the Billboard 200 (116k sold, up 22%). This is 18 more weeks than Rihanna at #1, two weeks away from matching Whitney's Bodyguard and three weeks away from snatching her wig.

Set Fire To Your Fave remains atop the Billboard 100, blocking the surging Republican Anthem from the top position.
