I always wondered why we reward vapid pop star hacks who can't do anything without a freaking team of people doing everything for them. Like Britney Spears for example, can't play instrument, can barely sing, can barely dance, needs a choreographer, can't write music nor lyrics. And I'm not talking about Britney Spears now, I'm talking in her prime. All she really brought to the table was her looks and ok singing ability and the ability to move to someone else's choreography. No innovations of her own. Little inherent talent. And then in mid 2000s she put on some weight and then couldn't even do the choreography well and she always needs some backup vocals in live performances and what you hear on the CD is all super processed vocals. In general, pop stars since then are just conduits for the efforts of more talented people. Sure, you got the few talented ones like Michael Jackson and Paula Abdul (who, though not a great singer, a world class choreographer). But the rest of them ... same crap. I'd rather see an ugly old haggard dude who looks like Lemmy perform songs that they wrote and composed on their guitar.
