She has some catchy songs, but haven't listened to anything from her in a while - especially in the past year or so.
And sadly, I believe she has such a following cuz she's a symbol of how toxic women are now a days. |

She is part of the pop scene that I have never understood. Like the media pimping for the dems the promoters pour cash into her and get massive returns from their investments.
I can't stand anything about her. Average looks, toxic personality, bad politics absolute fingers on chalkboard music but I am not her market demographic. That being said I am not forced to listen to her, buy tickets to her shows or look at her 12 y/o boy body so..... I really could not care less about the whole hype around her. I do find the older guys fawning over her pathetic and hilarious at the same time. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: She has a net worth of about a billion dollars. Billion with a "B". You're right. She has no appeal to anyone.... This is correct. OP, you may not like her music or her looks or her style. All the evidence points to her immense success, charity and business acumen. If you do not understand that, it does not make you edgy, it makes you look stupid. Basically what you are saying is you do not understand success because you do not know what it looks like. |

Quoted: I dont get it. Average face, 12 year boy body, average at best voice, her songs are nearly indistinguishable from each other, lyrics are full of teen angst. Who the fuck listens to this crap. Her target audience has to be 6 to 14 year old girls because anyone with any taste in music cannot find her "music" remotely entertaining. Its like listening to dirty asshole. Swift is on the top of the world now, but if you're patient and wait long enough she will eventually turn into Madonna and become a pathetic parody of herself. It's inevitable. |

Big stars are big stars because of those who control media time, placement and media spin.
Ariana Grande is a big star because she leaked "I hate Americans, I hate America". That is official policy of the American Political Party, she was promoted to influencer. Besides that she appeared to be very slightly a "person of color". Now it appears she has bleached herself, that seems to be OK with the media, she still holds the rank of influencer. Taylor Swift showed photographs of herself with pro Biden, pro Democrat propaganda. That is official policy of The Party so her career is promoted to that of big influencer. Travis Kelce kneeled during the national anthem, making a racist hate statement by doing so. Racist hate is official policy of The Party, so he is promoted to the rank of big influencer. Big stars can become big through talent, but there are plenty of people with talent who we will never hear of. There is a promotion industry working to push forward careers of sports and entertainment people. Entertainers, including sports figures, and their agents and promoters better do what The Party wants or else. This is classic carrot and stick that is used by totalitarian government. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Her early songs were absolutely original and great lyrics and music. She backed that up with a huge catalog of forgettable stuff but managed 1-2 hooks per album. Seventeen years later she has a big enough hits catalog to fill a 2-3 hour show and knows enough to invest millions in production to get billions back. She is the new Garth Brooks. She manufactured and marketed herself into a star and is now reaping the rewards. This is the correct answer like it or not. |

The type of grown women that like her are the same types that graduate high school, go to college to be teachers, graduate college and then go back to school as a teacher and end up having sex with one their students. They're mentally or emotionally stunted. They want to keep living like they're 16 years old.

Quote HistoryQuoted: She's cute and her songs are catchy and pleasant. It's not everyone else, it's you. Don't cut yourself on that edge. Same feeling. She’s attractive, just young. She does have a good voice and skill. Just too many simplistic songs IMHO. I think most modern singers are pushed that way (@Beyonce…). Can I listen to some? Sure. Do I seek it out? Not so much. I think a lot of the displeasure is more generational. Imagine the parents of the kids who were Beatle’s fanatics… same deal. She neither picks my pocket, nor breaks my leg. |

Pop music is quite literally decided by 12 year old girls. It has been at least since the 70s.
If you want complex adult music there is metal (or maybe some foreign stuff). |

After she switched to pop her music became unlistenable. I actually learned to play some of her more country songs on the drums years ago because I actually thought they were pretty good if you can ignore some of the lyrics. Never really been attracted to her though. |

My young sister in law was a teenager when TS was still in her wholesome country phase. She and my MIL would bend over backwards to extol the virtues of the glorious infallible TS. Nothing she did was bad, every song she made was perfect.
They completely wrote her off with her later pop stuff and new found generic default liberal opinions. So at least there's two who fell off the TS wagon. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: A 34 year old women singing five note nursery rhyme songs with ten basic 80's rock star stage poses and stolen eye movements from Susanna Hoffs who hasn't had a real relationship with a man in her entire life. Grown men fawning over her is even more juvenile than she is. Kids like her and grown women who haven't grown up either are also fawning over her simplistic jingles about puppy love relationships. This is one of the best explanations I've seen/heard as I've heard OP's question many, many times. She's average at best. She's also in a timeframe where the typical 11-16 year old girls who would normally forget about her in a few years are also joined with a 40 something generation of women who have failed to emotionally mature and grow up. Somehow the 2 together are a phenomena regardless of how average everything about her actually is. |
